Boat Shoes...lets crack this code

OK, we have explored the world of bottom paint removal methods to a level that I think could only be described as a definitive work.

Lets talk boat shoes. Now for the last several decades I have always worns some brand of Sperry Topsider in the summer and once the weather kicks in I wear a fishing boot with a non-skid sole. The foul weather boots are fine and do the job when the weather is snotty. In fair weather I like the moc's. My all time favorite was the Kudu moc by sperry but they don't make it any more It had real thick oiled leather tops and super thick soles that stood up to serious abuse. My wife hated them because they smelled. (the oil) For the last 10 years or so I go thru 2 pair of moc's they call the "sailfish" style. I don't like them as much as the Kudu's but they are OK. I have to tell you as I have aged my feet are starting to hurt now with these mocs. There is not enough padding or cushion in them for my sore bones. I was thinking of getting the sneaker model that they make with rebock but it is white leather and I know they will look like crap after I step on the first fish. But they look super comfortable.

What do you guys wear? (or like)
