Boat shoes, but make them fashion. That’s exactly what happens when heritage footwear brand Sperry teams up with Canadian style powerhouse Aritzia for a limited-edition collab that’s already making serious waves.
Originally launched this spring (and restocked by popular demand), the Sperry x Aritzia collection reimagines the classic boat shoe through Aritzia’s effortlessly luxe lens. The result? Two sleek, sailor-inspired styles—the Slim Boat Shoe and the Authentic Original 2-Eye Boat Shoe—designed to float seamlessly from dockside to downtown.
The Slim Boat Shoe is a flirty, streamlined take on Sperry’s classic, with a narrow toe, tonal stitching, and rich leather or suede finishes (the new chocolate and sand shades? Chef’s kiss). The Authentic Original keeps things classic with rawhide laces, contrast stitching, and Sperry’s signature “Wave-Siping” sole—perfect for yacht life, real or imagined.
Each pair comes with three sets of laces (because outfit-matching is a must), a re-lacing needle, dust bag, and collector-worthy co-branded shoebox. Priced at $120 and available in women’s sizes 5–11, these limited-edition kicks are already selling fast.
As Sperry puts it, the collab blends “nautical roots” with Aritzia’s “everyday luxury” vibe—and the styling possibilities are endless. Pair them with oversized button-downs, knit sets, or a flowy midi dress and live your best prep-meets-cool life.
Ahoy, fashionistas—these boats are boarding now at Aritzia.com. Don’t miss the voyage. —Vita Daily
