^ from: www.amazon.com - Boat shoes are a preppy shoe alternative to flip-flop/thong sandals or canvas sneakers.
Boat/Deck shoes are often seen as a preppy pair of shoes to wear. These shoes are very casual, even if you are not on a boat or yachting. They are lace-up shoes that can be as comfortable to wear as a pair of loafers. The most common boat shoes are often in natural or brown colors. Among feminine boat shoes, you may even find some boat shoes that come in animal prints or in some glittery colors. Boat shoes are wearable for both males and females. They are a great pair of shoes to wear to compliment any casual look. Maybe you are a school student and want a comfortable and stylish pair of shoes to wear. Well, don't pass up boat shoes. I've seen employees of some stores wear boat shoes for their outfit. So when it comes to boat shoes, they are very classy casual. Think of these shoes as a classy pair of sneakers.
The premier name in boat shoes is Sperry Top-Sider. Sperry Top-Sider is to boat/deck shoes as UGG Australia is to sheepskin boots. The company has been making their ever-popular shoes since the company's founding in 1935. To learn more about Sperry Top-Sider, visit www.sperrytopsider.com.

What to wear with boat shoes? Here are a few ideas.Boat Shoes With Short-Shorts.
Personally, I think it's cute to see girls wear boat shoes to with short shorts. Females who dare bare their legs on a warm or hot day with short shorts and boat shoes usually look great to me. Perhaps the reason why I like the look is because of how sleek boat shoes are to go with a pair of short-shorts.You may or may not agree with me after seeing these images to show how cute these shoes can be with short shorts. Consider the following looks on Lookbook...
This look is denim jean short-shorts paired with boat shoes:

Here are some non-denim shorts:

In addition, I've seen boat shoes worn with running shorts. So shorts and boat shoes are often a common combination for both females and even males who wear boat shoes.
Boat Shoes With Cuffed or Cropped Jeans or Pants.
I think cropped pants or jeans can be a great pair of bottoms to wear with boat shoes. Check out this example:• (boat shoes with skinny jeans) - Lookbook
Boat Shoes With Skirts or Dresses.
To be honest, I tend to like boat shoes better with pants and shorts than I do skirts or dresses. Skirts and dresses, however, are not off-limits for boat shoes. Here are a few ladies who would disagree with me about boat shoes not going well with skirts and dreses:• (boat shoes with a denim skirt) - Lookbook
