Hello Gents,

Not sure if this is considered for real men.
Am looking for boat shoes / moccasins which looks good for short pants and long chino pants.

Do you guys have any recommendations for well built brands?

Budget will be around RM500
I don't mind paying slightly extra for really well built. I have some phobia on some brand like Hush Puppy where I love its design but it just won't last more than a year.

Thanks gents!

For authentic boat shoe design, you can go for Sperry Topsiders or Sebago. Can be found in Royal Sporting House, Isetan KLCC, Parkson Pavilion etc.

I do own one authentic boatshoe from Sketchers but it seems that they do not produce it in its authentic form anymore. I've worn it for around 5+ years. Kept the leather clean with clear carnauba wax every 3/4 months or so. The patina it gave is quite nice too IMO.

Thanks for sharing! I was looking at Sperry but am considering something else haha somehow there are some minimal thing which I dislike

How about Loake 528? Do you have any idea on it? I know it's famous for dress shoes though
