HIGHLIGHTS:

Sea Top Voyager-men and women's versions $120-lightweight performance boating shoe with a waterproof breathable membrane dubbed WaterBlock™, ASV, and Adaptive Wave Siping™ -dry feet inside a shoe that can grip-double as a urban kick (imo)...also onboard, a full-length removable compression molded EVA footbed maximizes comfort and we like the bungee closures too- so easy. |
Autumn's colder temps-and often wetter conditions require different footwear---and Sperry delivers several styles with its proprietary performance features of
Anti-Shock and Vibration Technology™(ASV)…Adaptive Wave Siping™ that disperses the water away from the outsole part for better grip+traction on difference surfaces and conditions, and the nifty SON-R technology™ built into some styles-for natural sensory feedback for greater stability on terrain…desirable especially when going from sea-rock-land adventures.
