If your feet are happy, then very often, so are you! I have used the Fathom boot from Sperry Top-Sider on board by 28’ Sabre sail boat and on my 13’ Boston Whaler.  It has been tested in many conditions and has stood up to the test in all of them.  There is a lot to like about this boat boot.  Things that I like most about the Sperry Top-Sider Fathom Boot are:

The Men's Fathom Boot is comfortable, dry and easy to move about in.

Comfort- The Fathom is a very comfortable boot that breathes well so your feet don’t sweat as the day heats up or in warmer climates.

Waterproof-  As a marine boot should be, the Fathom is waterproof. It is made with low water absorption leather and other materials to keep your feet dry even if you are sloshing around in ankle deep water.  The boot is high (mid calf) and has a draw string at the top to keep spray from going down the top of the boot.

Easy on and off- I have found these boots easy to get on and off, which helps in getting on deck quickly.

Mobility-  You need to be able to move quickly and confidently on broad.  With the Fathom, I feel like I am wearing a pair of light shoes rather than a big pair of clunky boots.  Helps when I’m scrambling to take in a sail or haul in a fish.  These boat boots have great grip for when you need to move quickly around wet decks.

Style-  Many boots are just plain ugly all substance, not style.  The Fathom isn’t one of them.  The Fathom blends function with appearance.  You can definitely wear these ashore after you arrive.

No odor- Some of my shoes smell worse than week old fish. The Fathom scores well in this area thanks to its Microbe Shield which protects against bacteria that causes odor.
