Here along the sandy shores of Lake Michigan, you can most likely count on some boating activity. And when you’re on a boat, you need to come prepared with footwear and attire. The most popular go to brand of shoe for all your boat adventures is Sperry. They look good and help keep you safe on those slippery decks. Taking the brand from boat shoes and expanding it to a full line of clothing allowed Sperry to reach a larger market. Endorsed by the Official Preppy Handbook in the 1980’s-1990’s, the Sperry brand has maintained that classic preppy style with subtle changes to evolve with the times. We were given the opportunity to try out some of their women’s summer collection items. They didn’t let us down!
