Originally designed in the 1970s to equip French Navy submariners, this iconic boat shoe is a masterclass in functional design. The rich marron leather is supple yet sturdy, developing a unique character the more you wear them. Hand-sewn detailing around the toe gives them that classic, authentic deck shoe silhouette. What makes these stand out is the clever wrap-around leather lace system. The laces are tanned differently from the main upper, meaning you can pull them tight to adjust the fit as the shoe naturally stretches and moulds to your foot over time. They sit on a durable rubber sole that offers serious grip, whether you are actually on a boat or just walking down to your local pub. Pair them with washed denim or relaxed chinos for an easy, timeless look.
