    More specifically the brand Sperry.
    Anyway it was raining one day and I was walking into the building and nearly fell flat on my back from slipping;; in boat shoes. : |

    Aren't they supposed to be made so you don't bust your butt in water? Lol.

    Maybe I'm just klutzy or possibly a little confused and ignorant about why Sperry's are called boat shoes. Haha.

    It's my understanding that boat shoes are made to dry quickly if they get wet, and easy to slip on and off :slight_smile:

    <3 my boat shoes ^^ Perhaps you should invest in some with better grip? I paid about $40 for mine and they have nooooo grip at all...
