Gear: Sperry’s 7 Seas Deck Shoes
NOT JUST FOR KICKS
You know it’s time for new deck shoes when 1) your feet start to slip on board and 2) even the dog gives them a wide berth. Sperry’s new 7 Seas line could bring you back into Rover’s good graces and keep you secure on deck too. The four distinct styles all share some common features, including a non-marking rubber sole with deep sipes for on-deck work, a cushioned insole and hydrophobic mesh uppers to shed water and allow your feet to dry quickly. They’re available in men’s and women’s sizes, in a variety of colors. $70. Sperry, sperry.com
