Although the summer season is behind us, that doesn’t mean it’s time to put away the boat shoes. While typically a summer shoe, the boat shoe has been upgraded into a year-round shoe that fuses traction with a timeless look. This versatility has only grown thanks to designs like those from Sebago. In their newest collaboration, Sebago takes the boat shoe and turns it into your new favorite sophisticated everyday shoe. For the partnership, the brand has joined forces with American yachtsman and former America’s Cup winner Gary Jobson for a boat shoe that returns it to its sailing roots. A modern upgrade of its 1980s design, the Portland Gary Jobson returns with premium materials and craftsmanship, making it a proper revamp.
Sebago and Gary Jobson go sailing with their newest boat shoe
Paying homage to Jobson and Sebago’s long-standing partnership, the latest boat shoe release reminds everyone of the importance of the sailor to Sebago’s collaborative lineup. Available in three versions, the Portland Gary Jobson boat shoe is offered in two suede options and one full-grain leather option, allowing users to select the material that best complements their wardrobe. Despite the difference in materials, each version features hand-stitched detailing, Sebago’s non-slip rubber sole, and an upgraded pattern that bears Jobson’s signature. The Sebago boat shoe is available for purchase via the brand’s webstore and retails for $195 each. While the boat shoe marks another stellar collaboration for Sebago, it’s not the only partnership that’s arrived at the brand. At the same time, Sebago is also introducing a new line of personal care and lifestyle products with fragrance brand St. Johns. This collaboration includes soap, mineral-free deodorant, fragrances, and travel sprays. The Sebago x St. Johns collection is also available via the Sebago webstore.
