A Boat Shoe Built for the Boat and the Boardwalk
If you have searched for mens boating shoes that actually stay comfortable after a full day on deck, the Reef Swellsole Pier LE is built around exactly that problem. Reef paired a classic boat shoe silhouette with SWELLsole, the brand's thickest, softest EVA cushioning, so the shoe reads as easy footwear you can wear from the dock to the street.
What Goes Into the Swellsole Pier LE
- Premium leather upper with an easy on and easy off fit
- SWELLsole midsole, described by Reef as its thickest and softest premium EVA cushioning
- Memory foam sockliner underfoot
- Ultra lightweight and flexible EVA construction
- Gold and Silver Leather Working Group rated premium leathers
Who Reaches for This Shoe
This is a men's shoe for anyone who splits time between the boat and everyday errands around South Florida. The classic boat shoe shape slips on quickly for a run to the marina, and the SWELLsole cushioning is there for the walk back to the truck, the dock bar, or an afternoon on land after the water portion of the day is done.
Getting the Most Out of the Fit
Leather boat shoes like this one soften and mold to your foot with wear, so expect the upper to relax slightly over the first several wears. Because the upper is leather, keep it away from prolonged standing water and let it air dry naturally rather than forcing heat on it, which helps the leather keep its shape wear after wear. Rinse off salt spray or sand when you can so the leather working group rated hide stays supple.
Reef's Roots in Beach Culture
Reef's story goes back to Fernando and Santiago Aguerre, two entrepreneur brothers from South America with a love of surf and beach culture. They moved to Southern California to build the Reef brand and set up production in Sao Paulo, Brazil, in 1984, where they first produced the sandal that made Reef a leader in open toe footwear. That same beach first mindset carries into Reef's boat shoe line today.
