Real Alpha males aren't afraid to wear boat shoes. You know, after all these things were designed for a purpose - wearing on boats, which is why I started wearing em. I bet none of these boat-shoe naysayers have ever tried changing sales, in the rain, in a 25-knot blow amidst a heaving sea wearing "fashionable" shoes. Arrgggh, Arrggghhh ...

Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum
I wear boat shoes and to hell with the rest
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum ...

Imagine having to endure 25 knot winds and salt spray whilst shopping in the trendy stores of Devonport . It's enough to spoil your latte, let alone your shoes . . .

Oh well, that explains it then. Last person on earth a man should take fashion tips from is a woman. Afterall, this is a gender that allows themselves to be shoehorned into shoes with 6-inch heels that serve no purpose other than to restrict their movement and ruin their feet.

And all I can say is: Yaaay.. Go Bruce!
(And yes, I am woman)

Fashion being what it is, it'll only take some pop idol or designer to be seen in boat shoes & they'll be fighting over them in stores.

Meanwhile, stay comfy...

Boat shoes used to be fashionable sometime in the late '40's. Now, they are worn mostly by aging homosexuals.
