Reddit reviews Sebago Men's Docksides Boat Shoe

Not sure if you're willing to consider a third option, but after killing countless boat shoes I can say that docksides hold up the best by miles and also, to my eye, look just as good or better.

Sperry Lace up or Sebago Docksides

yea i'm going to have to agree with skmt on this. these look like a bad hybrid of loafers and boat shoes. you're better off picking up a pair of sebago's/sperry's boat shoes on sale or some penny loafers.

Sebago Docksides are a good Sperry alternative, and in my experience, will last longer than Sperrys. Depending on your shoe size/the color you want, you can get a pair for around $60-$65.
