i think this topic has been raised before but......
4 months on deck the Guls where great with the drains in the grippy soles but look at them now!
They Agreed to refund my money as they are discontinued now.....so I have ordered the Helly Hansons below I will let you know how they go in 4 months time! What happen to the AEGs deck shoes I wonder?
Volleys or if you deal with boat ramps and wet feet a lot Crocs. In particular the Croc Islanders, rubber lower leather upper around ankle like a deck shoe. Sorry gotta run so no image linky.
I second that. Top pic after two years, bottom pic the new one. (Climbing the rocks on shore done most of the damage. If only used on the boat it would last much longer!) Good comfy shoe with drain holes and good grip. They call it the "Gybe Walker" .
True HG the Croc Is can be hard to find but up here in Cairns there is a Croc Shop who always has stock because they are at The Pier so high demand. Also for some reason the Totally Workwear Shop stocks them.
I've had the AC's from a $2 store as Chinese knockoffs haven't seen them again but they must be out there. They were nice. Went for a tenner. Should've bought a dozen.
Bare feet, hands, knees do not work for me. Always end up with blood all over the deck, cockpit like a charnel house. In the wet or cold the blue Bourke boots are good with a thick sock.
A lot of the time on mine I just wear my crocs that I wear on land (bright blue with yellow straps and my wife hates them and says they look ridiculous ) but on the boat I race on I wear these with short socks
The are grippy and light and don't seem to smell too much
