Is it just us, or are you also kinda eager for autumn to start? That’s not to say we want to see summer go, but with all the talk about Summerween and dorm life, plus seeing new pre-fall trends make an appearance, we can’t help but think about the cooler months ahead. And speaking of pre-fall trends, one of the more surprising ones is a classic summer style that we used to wear back in our school days that has made the ultimate comeback this year. Of course, I’m talking about boat shoes — but not just any ole shoe, the Sperry x Aritzia boat shoes are back and better than ever.
At the start of the Spring/Summer season this year, the two brands launched the first installment of their collaboration that would sell out instantly and essentially put the timeless style back on the map. Since then, boat shoes have been seen everywhere and on everyone. Now, with the summer season coming to a close, Sperry Topsider and Aritzia decided to launch another collection of coveted boat shoes, but this time in muted, cool-tone shades just in time for fall.
Similar to previous capsules, this expansion features two styles — the Authentic Original and the Slim boat shoes — in various new shades and textures. This time around, both styles are available in the same colorways, so the only thing you have to decide on is the silhouette. The new hues include Dark Willow Green in a suede nubuck fabric, as well as Pearl, Rich Mocha Brown, and Black, all of which come in a smooth leather material. The new collection launched on Saturday, August 2, at Aritzia, and already certain sizes and styles have already begun to sell out. Luckily, there’s another drop taking place tomorrow morning on Sperry.com, so if your size is sold out at Aritzia, you’ll have another chance to make it yours.
Below, take a closer look at the newest installment of the Sperry x Aritizia collab and make a pair (or two) yours ahead of the fall season.
NEW SPERRY X ARITZIA 2025
Sperry x Aritzia Authentic Original Boat Shoe
The boat shoe that started it all. The Aritzia Authentic Original shoe now comes in four new hues that can fit into any fall wardrobe next season. Our personal favorite is the Dark Willow Green shade that arrives in a soft nubuck material.
NEW SPERRY X ARITZIA 2025
Sperry x Aritzia Slim Boat Shoe
If you’re after a more feminine style that still has the look of a traditional loafer, the Aritzia Slim Boat shoe is the way to go. This silhouette now comes in five new colors — four of which are the same as the Authentic Original and one more that’s exclusive to this style, which is the Grey Mist hue in smooth leather.
