That looks like a 'duck shoe' or duckys.
I like the easy slip on/off. If I had to tie the laces each time. I'd
look for a better fitting type of water shoe.
Almost bought a pair of LandsEnd water shoes at Sears but by the time I
decided and went back...no more size 12s.
Size 12? (OMG) I'll bet you waterski barefoot.


That's nothing...#2 son wears size 14.... that's about the circumference of
Looneys waist.



And also the number of potential fathers for his children.

Isn't that the regular size for grown men ? ;-)
I have problems finding the 12W too.

Not when you have an personal elevation of 5' 6". You are either too
short or you have too much turned under. BTW 5'6' is the perfect height
for a Rav 4 owner.

I do OK online, it is the B&M stores that have limited selections in
my size

There's something about Sperry's that just kill the bottoms of my
feet. Don't know why. I normally wear Sebago's but bought a pair of
these at the Bean store. They're great for boating or just wearing.

Are those black soles non-marking?

Well, I would imagine so. Mine are not that model, mine are Nike but the
same idea and mine do not mark up boats...
