hahaha boats & hoes, nah but on a real note i have been searching, and SEARCHING for a boat shoe for the longest time, i know im extra late on them but im really picky and i just couldn’t find the right one to fit my style of dress. i came really close last year with the LACOSTE CABESTAN VULC, but things ended up not working out and i was left alone. the patient and selective person i am, i decided to wait and now things are looking a bit brighter thanks to vans & converse.

first up is the VANS ZAPATO DEL BARCO set for a release this upcoming fall in 3 different colorways. vans give it that “worn” scratchy look like you’ve just bought them from the thrift store but they’re extra clean for some reason, and i was thinking something a bit cleaner if that makes sense.

so today i was doing my routine sneaker news count and came across these converse boat shoes which caught my eye. i guess i was just looking for the vulcanized sole… these are slated for a spring 2010 release
