Great boat shoes

This is the epitome of classic Maine style. The Read boat shoe is the perfect summer shoe. Not only do they look great with a pair of chinos or shorts, but they perform just as a boat shoe should. The Heritage Brown Leather is highly water resistant and incredibly durable, and we've kept it unlined so you can wear them without socks. The non-marking rubber boat soles have siping which makes them stick like glue to slippery surfaces. A pair of chestnut leather laces wraps around the heel to provide an extra snug fit. Each pair is handcrafted in Lewiston, Maine USA using our Genuine Handsewn Moccasin construction.

Grew up in Maine wearing GH Bass loafers and boat shoes when they were hand sewn in Wilton. My dad worked there. Wasn’t sure I’d wear another pair of shoes hand sewn in Maine again and then I found these. I just received them and put them on and it’s like I’m wearing a worn in pair. And the smell of the leather takes me back as well! Not sure when I’ll get back to Maine but these make me feel a little closer. Thanks for deciding to continue the tradition in Lewiston!
Beautifully habd crafted
These may be the most comfortable pair of leather shoes I’ve ever put on straight from the box. They fit perfectly, the leather is just tight enough that I feel they will mold to my feet in a short period of time and I will wear these for years. No flaws I can find anywhere. Beautiful shoes.
A couple of years ago when my Sperry’s wore out I debated what to replace them with. That is when I discovered Rancourt & Company. I ordered these boat shoes about a year and a half ago and have worn the heck out of them. They are well built and very comfortable. These are some of the best shoes I have ever owned (the only comparison is another pair of Rancourt & Company shoes and some Allen Edmonds shoes).
