The Read Boat Shoe is a defining expression of classic Maine coastal style, shaped by generations of Rancourt & Co. craftsmanship since 1967. With its low two-eye profile and timeless design, it delivers an easy, confident look that moves seamlessly from dock to town.
Crafted in Napa Canyon a smooth grain and is hot-stuffed with oils and waxes to accomplish a clear see-through finish and wonderful pull up characteristics. . Built using true handsewn moccasin construction, the unlined design molds naturally to the foot, while a siped rubber sole provides reliable traction on wet, slippery surfaces.
Enduring, authentic, and built to be worn often, the Read Boat Shoe reflects Rancourt & Co.’s commitment to traditional shoemaking. Each pair is handsewn using true handsewn moccasin construction and crafted in Maine, USA.
Ordered & Received the Read Boat Shoe in Napa Canyon leather...Very fast shipping.
Great quality shoe as usual for Rancourt...I have several pairs of beefroll penny loafers and have never been disappointed.
They required a brief break-period, about one week.
I've received many compliments on the color!
I will be buying their belgrade camp loafer next.
