This Frye Quincy Boat Shoe is an instant winner, but if you would like to comparison shop for some other styles, may I suggest:

Keds Champion Skipper Shoe:

Known for their sneakers, Keds merged this one with the classic boat shoe to cover you in every way nautical. There is topstitching and a laced entry. The traditional, durable canvas outer breathes for comfort, is fully lined with fabric and has a soft, supportive insole for barefoot summer comfort. Add a vulcanized rubber welt and textured outsole that is both flexible and strong. A Keds logo is on the heel and collar. Select Navy or White for just $50.

Sperry Top Sider Montauk Shoe:

Complete your casual look with this top-sider. It has genuine handsewn, tru-mock construction of stain and water resistant leather for real durability and long wear. Lined throughout, it has a shock absorbing heel cup and a perforated insole for foot comfort. Rustproof eyelets around the upper with fully functional rawhide laces for a secure fit. A cup-style outer sole with reinforced stitching is flexible, non-marking rubber which provides ultimate wet/dry traction. There are eight versatile color choices including some multi-tones. Check them out for $90 retail.

Frye Wendy Lace Moc:

This sophisticated little moc has it all. A top-stitched moc toe, boat lacing all around, functioning tie for a secure fit and even wide-tooth flirty fringe on the vamp. Upper is made of beautifully soft suede with a cushioned insole for constant comfort. The flexible leather outsole has rubber pads at the forefoot and the heel for stability. There are four go-with-all compatible colors. Retail cost is $148.

Both the Frye Quincy Boat Shoe and these other options are all good bets. Choice depends on your need and taste. You can find these online often at better than retail pricing and with no charge for shipping.
