Boat shoes
Shoes for women and men with white soles are at the peak of popularity over the past few years. But what is the name of such shoes? Another name for such models is boaters. Such shoes have a thick, white, refined sole, as well as a special lace that stretches from the back and ends at the rise of the foot.
For whom did you come up with shoes?
Boaters were invented back in 1935 by sailor Paul Sperry from Connecticut, who later founded the brand Sperry Top Sider. Paul paid sufficient attention to all the details of the invented shoes: the soles did not leave marks on the deck and were made reliable and non-slip, aluminum lacing loops were anodized so that the metal did not rust when it came into contact with water, and strong laces ensured reliable fixation of boat shoes on the foot.
Distinctive qualities of boaters
Shoes, once invented for yachtsmen, today are available to all fashionistas and are in great demand.
It’s quite simple to distinguish boaters from any other shoe model: the rubber sole of these models is white and also has wavy slots for a more reliable hold on slippery surfaces. Do not confuse such shoes with ordinary moccasins will allow a lace of leather running around the entire perimeter of the heel perfectly fixing the shoe on the foot. The toe of the shoe is complemented by white stitches.
