NOT JUST FOR KICKS

You know it’s time for new deck shoes when 1) your feet start to slip on board and 2) even the dog gives them a wide berth. Sperry’s new 7 Seas line could bring you back into Rover’s good graces and keep you secure on deck too. The four distinct styles all share some common features, including a non-marking rubber sole with deep sipes for on-deck work, a cushioned insole and hydrophobic mesh uppers to shed water and allow your feet to dry quickly. They’re available in men’s and women’s sizes, in a variety of colors. $70. Sperry, sperry.com
