When to Wear Boat Shoes and Boat Shoes Giveaway
Firstly they are, for the most part, a warm weather shoe. Given the low-profile and dressed-down look of a boat shoe, it lends itself well to the summer wardrobe. Luckily, if you find yourself in a cooler climate, you’ll be able to wear your boat shoes outside of those summer months.
It is important to pay attention to what you’re wearing with boat shoes. It’s not simply a matter of matching the color of your shoe to your belt. As a rule, don’t try to make them work with a tux or a tie. Socks are best avoided too, although we’ve got some pointers on how you might break this rule.
Boat shoes do their best work as a subtle counterpoint to the rest of your outfit. Dressing semi formal? Let them do the heavy lifting in creating a more approachable aesthetic. Hot enough for shorts? They can bring some maturity to an outfit that might otherwise be lost.
