The canvas deck sneaker started it all. Developed in the 1930s by Paul Sperry, the Classic CVO was the first non-slip deck shoe, thanks to our now iconic razor-cut Wave-Siping sole. Crafted with durable canvas, twill and woven uppers and a vulcanized rubber midsole, these sneakers are timeless and versatile – fit for life on deck with an easy-going style that’s effortlessly stylish on land. Cushioned insoles provide superior comfort no matter where life takes you. Wear this year-round, with everything from swim trunks on deck to denim and trousers when popping out for dinner with friends.
