Paul Sperry watched his dog, Prince, run across the ice on a winter’s day, he noticed his dog’s amazing ability to maintain traction on the slippery surface. Turning over Prince’s paw, he observed hundreds of tiny cracks and cuts going in all directions. These wave like grooves became the inspiration for Mr. Sperry’s latest patent, called Razor-Siping, and were instrumental in maximizing the traction and performance of the Authentic Original Sperry Top-Sider . Since inventing the first boat shoe, our brand continues to share out “Passion for the Sea” with those who enjoy the good life in, on and around the sea.
