Even if you’re fortunate to enjoy your boating on sunny Mediterranean shores, a pair of solid and reliable deck shoes are a vital piece of kit for every mariner.
Chatham Marine has made jolly good deck shoes for years and this premium slip-on is extremely comfortable and easy to wear on deck and ashore.
Produced as part of the brands Made in Britain collection (and yes, the Peels are made in Chatham’s Exeter factory), this slip-on deckie is hand-stitched and made using tanned Kudu leather. Offering years of wear, they are comfortable, hard-wearing and grippy.
The Peel has memory foam padding underfoot for supreme comfort and the natural character of the Kudu leather has scars and markings, giving each pair of shoes a unique look.
MBY Cool 50 is all about style and substance – two characteristics that lie at the very core of this British marine brand. Chatham Marine’s Peel deck shoes are the result of the fine marriage of the style and substance and offer unrivalled comfort from the soft, supple leather and memory foam
lying underfoot and great looks to boot.
The fact you can slip them on and off with ease and without having to fiddle with laces or worry about tripping over them is a big bonus and on test they had great grip over spray-sodden foredecks.
The Peels are the type of deck shoe you’ll have for years and when it does come time to trade them in, you’ll buy the same range again.
We particularly like the blue/taupe versions for sunny shores while traditionalists will enjoy the classy looks of the classic dark brown leather model.
