Gallant Lady
About Gallant Lady
The third Gallant Lady was far more of a yacht - the previous two Gallant Ladys being a Sports Fisherman. In 1984, the owner invited a team from Feadship to come on board his yacht at the time with one simple question: ''Can you build something like this - but better?' The resulting 40.07m Gallant Lady launched a year later, had more of a Feadship flavor to it than its predecessor, especially in the styling of the bow and the cockpit design.

Best women’s boating shoes: 9 of the best options for female sailors
- Sue Pelling
- March 12, 2022
Sue Pelling takes a look at the latest women's boating shoes and picks the best on the market for discerning female sailors

Over the last decade or so, there has been an increasing emphasis on sailing kit designed specifically for women, including women’s boating shoes.
This is great news as, while some pieces of kit such as lifejackets are reasonably acceptable in unisex form, traditional leather deck shoes designed for men are often impractical and a poor fit for women sailors.
As one of the most essential items of sailing kit, before choosing a pair of women’s boating shoes, it’s therefore worth looking at the many different styles and options available.
While budget is often a starting point in a decision-making process, it’s not always a case of spending the most, but more about what how you will be using the shoes, and how they fit when worn.
For relaxed sailing a good quality pair of traditional style leather deck/boat shoes is still popular, as they are both practical while sailing, non-marking on deck, but also look good and are comfortable to wear on shore.
For more active crew work, racing, and wetter keelboats, there are now many women’s designs of technical sailing trainers/sneakers. These are generally lightweight, supportive and snug fitting, while most sailing trainers are also self-draining/quick drying. Be wary, however, of prolonged wear on land as the super-grippy soles often wear down quickly if walking on rough ground.
9 of the best women’s boat shoes
Gill pursuit trainer.
With 45 years of marine footwear development to its name, Gill knows a thing or two about sailors’ technical requirements. The Pursuit Trainers are designed for ultimate comfort, with a lightweight design, and smart water drainage system, that showcases the company’s latest sailing shoe innovations.
The outsoles are molded using a non-slip compound to work in both wet and dry conditions, while the insoles have been designed with impact-absorbing qualities. They also feature a quick-lace adjustment system to ensure a secure fit.

Musto ladies dynamic pro ii adapt.
Musto has worked hard to produce sailing shoes that provide ultimate stability on deck. Thanks to their construction of TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane) welded overlay in the uppers, there is plenty of lateral support in the Dynamic Pro II Adapt shoes, as well as shock absorbing heel cages for a secure, comfortable fit.
For extra confidence and comfort when the deck is wet, these shoes feature Musto’s GripDeck rubber and GripFlex tread on the soles, and mono mesh upper fabric, which offers good ventilation and is quick drying.
These shoes also features XPL drainage – a technology designed to disperse and divert water away from areas prone to water ingress.

Wuzzos Whitaker
If you are looking for a pair of practical, yet extremely stylish hand-sewn leather deck shoes, Wuzzos Whitaker Boat Shoes should definitely be a consideration. What’s more, they can also be personalised.
As well as good looks, and day-long comfort, these shoes feature Wuzzos’ standard stitched and bonded, performance UV-repelling rubber, non-marking soles with striped treads that offer excellent grip on deck.
Like all quality deck shoes, the leather laces run continuously around the top of the shoe with the 360-degree lacing system. The Wuzzos leather is also infused with ‘Micro-Fresh’ – a smart antimicrobial technology that offers antifungal and antibacterial protection.
With exceptional attention to detail in its design and technology, it’s hardly surprising Wuzzos are the preferred brand for personalized/branded deck shoes at Yacht Club de Monaco, Fairline Yachts and a growing list of superyacht teams.
Personalisation is simple. Just click the box when ordering and you will be guided through the process.

These ultra-lightweight, sneaker-style deck shoes have been designed to ‘keep you glued on board’ thanks to ultra-high grip soles from Zhik’s non-marking proprietary ‘ZK Soles’.
They also look good and, for the super-active sailor, are ultra-lightweight yet tough-looking, comfortable and have a built-in drainage system.
According to Zhik, the ‘one-way’ drainage system within the soles of these shoes are created by molded channels cast into the mid-soles, which instantly channels water away from underfoot for grip, but doesn’t let it back in when water is running across the deck.
The construction of strong, perforated mesh upper fabric makes the Zhik Fuze breathable and quick drying. Inside the shoes, antibacterial coating has been added to the fast-drying inner liners.
For extra protection when the going gets tough, there is PU reinforcement in the upper, heel and toe areas.

Decathlon Cruise 100
For an exceptionally good value pair of practical, moccasin-style boat shoes, you can’t go far wrong with Decathlon’s Cruise 100 Women’s Leather Boat Shoes.
Marketed within Decathlon’s Tribord sailing range of products, the Cruise 100 are lightweight and offer comfort for active summer sailing.
They have all the features expected of functional boat shoes including non-marking and non-slip micro-grooved natural rubber outsoles.
The uppers are made from a combination of split leather and thin lightweight mesh, which aids breathability, while detachable cotton insoles help to keep things fresh!
As an endorsement of its functionality, Decathlon say the 100 design ‘has been tested and validated throughout its design phase by the Tribord sailing team in calm to variable sailing conditions (choppy water, small swell, average wind speed of Force 5), in warm and sunny weather (average outdoor temperature of 25°C).
‘These tests on the level of grip during use were carried out mainly on a Figaro and an Open 5.70, in different positions (helmsman, pitman, trimmer, midbowman).’

Chatham Pentle G2
The Pentle shoes in Chatham’s G2 collection are among the company’s best sellers. They are sturdy-looking classic leather boat shoes and offer all the style and comfort associated with the Chatham brand.
One of key features of this pair of boat shoes is Chatham’s internal Sole Spring – a tri density comfort technology used to enhance comfort and give plenty of absorption.
The shoes are also anti-bacterial. To achieve this Chatham uses an open cell polyurethane, which allows the material to breathe, and the moisture to wick away.
For the classic look, the Pentle shoes are available in walnut nubuck leather with triple-eyelets, side lacing, contrast stitching and the all-important non-slip and non-marking soles.

Dubarry Aruba
The popular Aruba shoes are one of Dubarry’s latest styles from the women’s range of this tried and trusted brand. Performance features of the Aruba include Dubarry’s non-slip, non-marking slim rubber outsoles, and the company’s signature Port and Starboard flash trims.
Constructed of soft nubuck leather, which is protected with a water-resistant ‘DryFast-DrySoft’ finish, these shoes are designed to contend with all conditions.
They are also available in a whole range of bold colours so, for the fashion-aware sailor, these are definitely a pair of women’s sailing shoes to consider.
Buy from the Dubarry Aruba women’s boating shoes from Dubarry
Orca Bay Creek
The Orca Bay Creek in Sand are a quality pair of classic design shoes that have been tweaked to appeal to style-conscious female sailors.
As well as their good looks in premium oiled nubuck leather, they are hugely practical with high compound, non-slip/non-marking rubber soles and rawhide leather laces that have undergone a process to increase longevity.
Thanks to the cushioned EVA heel cups (ethylene vinyl acetate – which is a rubber-like plastic that is particularly durable), the Orca Bay Creek offer plenty of day-long comfort.
Buy Orca Bay Creek women’s boating shoes from Amazon (UK)
Sebago Nina Suede Bala
For a real feminine look, nothing shouts style like a pair of Sebagos. The recently-launched, hand-sewn, Nina Suede Bala Moccasins are designed around a slimmer female foot.
The short vamp (the front part of the shoe’s upper) makes them really eye-catching, although those with wide feet should definitely ‘try before they buy’.
Made of full grain leather and soft suede, the Nina shoes come with leather sock linings, a 360° rawhide lace system and thin, elegant non-marking anti slip siped rubber soles.

What to look for in women’s boat shoes
Desire to wear – Comfort is extremely important, so try on as many pairs as you can before you make a purchase. Synthetic trainer-style shoes tend not to stretch after use so if you are going down the ‘trainer’ route, choose a size that fits well initially.
With quality-made leather deck shoes such as Wuzzos and Orca Bay, which have thicker leather and no synthetic lining, will mold nicely to your foot with wear. If that’s the fit you’re looking for, choose a pair that fits more snugly instead of the ‘next size up’, because the leather will soon soften around your foot.
Style v practicality – As well as looking good, bear in mind practicalities. For hardcore sailing, boat shoes need to fit securely around the foot so they don’t come off when scrambling across the deck in slippery, wet conditions.
Ideally, leather deck shoes should have what is known as a 360 degree lacing system where each shoe uses one continuous lace threaded along the side to the front tie eyelets to allow fine tuning for a snug fit.
Safety – Staying safe on deck/around the dockside is essential so choose a pair of women’s sailing shoes specifically designed for sailing with good grip. Make sure also they have non-marking soles.

Similar yachts New listings THE AMAZING MOMENTSLive life passionately, experience a yacht dinner on the amazing lady sandals. January 29, 2021  Experience a Yacht dinner on the amazing Lady Sandals. She is the yacht that belongs to Sandals’ former Chairman Gordon “Butch” Stewart. We were very fortunate and had the privilege to be invited in Aug 2018, when the yacht was visiting Tampa Bay. As Sandals Select Loyalty members , we get a few perks now and then, and this was one of those moments. If you are becoming a loyalty member, you should sign up to join the special group on Facebook – Official Sandals Select Loyalty Group , as this is where the special events are posted. An invitation was posted a month prior, and we sent an RSVP request straight away. Normally, it takes about a 1.5-hour drive to Tampa from where we live. The drive ended up taking over 2.5 hours due to extra heavy traffic and a non-working GPS. It became a race against time, and we thought we may not make it in time for sailing.  We parked our car and ran to the harbor, and there she was in front of us. Lady Sandals. A stunning yacht. Deep breath. We had made it & would be the guests for the evening. Once we boarded and removed our shoes, we received a glass of champagne. Time to relax, enjoy & explore this yacht! It was so exciting. THE LADY’S EXTERIOR DETAILSShe is a stunning yacht and was built in 1985. Her length is about 40m long, and her width is about 7 m. Lady Sandals is registered in the Cayman Islands. The yacht has had multiple owners, one was Nicholas Cage. There are multiple decks. She looked immaculate.  THE INTERIOR OF LADY SANDALSThe interior of Lady Sandals was also immaculate. There were multiple sitting areas, a dining room, and there are a total of 4 cabins. The yacht dinner on the amazing Lady Sandals was fantastic. They had set up a buffet with beef tenderloin, amazing shrimp, and amazing sides. Like the Sandals resorts, the food was 5-star.  We spent a couple of hours onboard the yacht, and we cruised within Tampa Bay. The sunset was stunning. The yacht dinner on the amazing Lady Sandals was wonderful, and we enjoyed the relaxing & fun evening.  If you would like to read my posts about our Sandals vacations, click here.

Table Of Contents Summer sandals come in many forms — from wedges to mules and everything in between — but if you’re in the market for a bit more polish and textural intrigue, consider the best fisherman sandals that are trending all over street style for summer 2024. These leather-strapped caged sandals are supremely easy to team with your favorite summer dresses and denim shorts and make for a breathable, versatile shoe you can pack for a vacay getaway or wear for a week’s work of tailored outfits at the office. Fisherman sandals are defined by thick leather straps woven into T-bar, caged uppers that close at the toe. The durable style, in fact, dates back centuries, when fisherman and sailors wore them as protective footwear for labor, as their lattice-like weave allowed them to drain water fast and dry quickly under the sun. While fisherman sandals are a timeless, long-existing footwear choice for summer, they weren’t deemed so fashionable until last year, when they emerged across designer runways like Celine, Prada, and Max Mara. In quick order, they made appearances in street style looks of it-girls like Taylor Swift, Hailey Bieber, Kylie Jenner, and Lorde, with the trend’s best-selling breakout star being the thick-strapped caged sandals from The Row. Watch on FN More affordable brands like Dr. Martens, Melissa, and Reformation have introduced a slew of new caged sandal releases that are just as stylish and invite attitude, from Y2K-inspired jelly uppers to sleek “quiet luxury” refinement. And, although traditional fisherman sandals don minimal rubber soles, contemporary iterations by Crocs, Alohas, and Loeffler Randall have innovated the style with chunky platforms, block heels, and even beachy raffia uppers. Beyond their strong-woven straps and lightweight design, fisherman sandals make for a well-worthy addition to your rotation for their pure versatility. You can style these caged sandals with crisp white crew socks (a go-to for Bieber alongside a white tee and denim shorts) or leave your feet bare to allow the leather caging to frame a fresh pedicure. Plus, the clean leather construction and hardware buckles on fisherman sandals position them as polished summer swap for loafers and dress shoes — or you can lean into their original design and wear them as beach or boat shoes that are simple to wipe clean and easily transition from day to night. Below, we’ve rounded up the best fisherman sandals to add to your summer capsule wardrobe that’ll last you many seasons to come.  What testers say : “I have tried on many pairs of Dr. Martens shoes in hopes of finding a pair that I would love and find comfortable — but none have ever fit the bill until now. The leather on these sandals is soft. It does not cut into my skin and is easier to break in than other sandals. They are so nostalgic and remind me of my junior high years! I look forward to wearing to wearing them all summer long.” Price upon publish date of this article: $150  What testers say : “I am thrilled about my new clear Possession shoes from Melissa. I wore them without socks this weekend and they were super comfy and also so cool looking. I will also wear them with colorful socks. These are the shoes of summer!” Price upon publish date of this article: $55.20  What testers say : “These are great if you have wide feet/ high instep. I have plenty of room in these. I range in 9.5 to 10, these are a bit roomy in a 10, which is fine because I plan on wearing these all year with socks and tights. I also love the velcro buckle. Very comfortable from the first wear on.” Price upon publish date of this article: $52.49  Price upon publish date of this article: $248  Price upon publish date of this article: $350  What testers say : “Love them!!!

However, when you buy something through our retail links, we may earn an affiliate commission. Every traveler headed to a warm-weather destination needs a comfortable pair of walking sandals in their carry-on . Try as they might, those $4 flip-flops just aren’t going to cut it against a long day of sightseeing or an afternoon traipsing along muddy trails, and in hot weather, a sneakers-and-socks combo can feel stifling. Enter Traveler 's edit of the best walking sandals for women. Shoes with both supportive soles and thick straps are essential for avoiding blisters and aches. That said, comfort doesn't have to mean compromising style. From water-resistant slip-ons made for pool days to neutral sandals you can plan outfits around , we have you covered this season with 15 of our favorite travel-friendly walking sandals. Whether you're embarking on an early morning hike, a food tour, a stroll through the park, or a fancy lunch outdoors, there's a packable sandal on our list for you. Shop walking sandals by category:The everyday sandal, the hiking sandal, the recovery sandal, the elevated sandal, the pool sandal. This article has been updated with new information since its original publish date. Additional reporting by Kristi Kellogg and Lindsey Olander.  Behold, my go-to summer sandal. Rothy's Weekend Slides are comfortable and pair well with everything, from jeans and linen pants to sundresses and maxi skirts. The two crossover knit straps give off an effortlessly chic look, while keeping your feet secure and making the sandal easy to slip on and off. The thick, contoured footbed offers nice support, making them a solid option for office commutes, lunch dates, or standing courtside. More things I love about this neutral slide: It is machine washable and made from eight recycled plastic bottles.  Mercedes Bleth , Condé Nast Traveler's global associate director of social, raves about these classic sandals for when you want to slide into something casual and breezy. The footbed is made of cork and latex and is lined with suede. The upper portion is made of the durable material Birko-Flor that lends the sandal its name. If you're looking for a neutral, choose from the dark brown or black—or switch it up with a bright white pair.  The Elle criss-cross sandal from Keen is as versatile as a walking sandal gets. Whether you're headed to a concert, strolling down the boardwalk, or sitting poolside, these sandals have you covered. They're designed to follow the contour of your foot for a snug yet comfortable fit and feature a shock-absorbing foam insole. The heel strap can be easily adjusted and the sandal offers great arch support, keeping your feet feeling good all day long.  I wore this pair of lightweight raffia sandals nonstop on a trip to Tuscany last summer . This flat sandal doesn't have much of an arch, so while I didn't wear them on any long vineyard tours, I relied on them for afternoon strolls and to dinner in Lucca when I wanted to look put together while avoiding heels. They're elevated enough to wear with sundresses and skirts yet simple enough to toss on with a swimsuit cover-up or denim shorts. I was running low on space in my suitcase for that trip, and these took up almost no packing room. I also love how chic they look paired with a straw tote bag .  If you really do prefer the simplicity of a classic flip flop that you can easy slip on and off, opt for this cushioned pair from Reef. With a soft compression-molded EVA footbed and added arch support, the Cushion Cloud sandal provides a lot more comfort than that paper-thin plastic pair in the back of your closet. These casual shoes are lightweight, packable, and will match most any casual vacation outfit you might pack.  If you're looking for a pair of sandals you can actually hike comfortably in , Lara Kramer , Traveler's former global director of audience development says these are for you. The cushioned padding absorbs shock impact and the contoured midsole gives you plenty of added arch support for walking on uneven terrain. These durable sandals, made from recycled materials, are designed to work in wet conditions, provide traction, and feature a hook-and-loop closure for easy adjusting.  Ideal for active days spent on walking trails or bike rides when you don't want to wear sneakers, the Bravada sandals from Merrell are lightweight and supportive. The ankle strap keeps your foot secure while the mesh upper offers plenty of breathability. The outsole is designed to give added grip and the hook and loop closure makes adjusting them to your exact fit a breeze.  Teva knows a thing or two about designing quality hiking sandals. Another favorite of ours from the brand is its Universal Sandal. Simple and classic in design, these bestsellers are so versatile—making them a worthy packing essential. They offer a contoured EVA footbed and midsole, adjustable straps, and enough cushion for a full day on the trails.  If you prefer to have your toes covered when you hit the trails, Keen's Newport H2 sandals offer the breathability of a sandal and the protection of a sneaker, thanks to a durable toe bumper. The quick-dry linings of the shoe and grippy soles allow you to navigate through steams, puddles, and rain without a worry and the insoles give you the arch support you need for a full day of movement.  Senior editor Megan Spurrell raves about these somewhat ugly, somewhat perfect recovery slides . As a marathon runner, she regularly turns to these bad boys to soothe her tired feet after pounding the pavement. While Spurrell mostly wears these around her apartment to aid in muscle recovery, these Oofos slides are also ideal to slip on for a walk around a cruise ship or to grab a coffee at a nearby cafe. Are they the sexiest shoe on our list? No, but they just might be the comfiest.  An updated model to Hoka's original Ora slides, another favorite of Spurrell's , these recovery sandals feature four air flow channels for maximum breathability and are more lightweight. The soft foot bed provides plenty of cushion for your feet after an intense workout or day hike. These futuristic slides come in a variety of vacation-ready colors like Citrus Glow, Sherbet, Violet Bloom, Passion Fruit, and Vibrant Orange.  I'm currently eyeing these chic, textured sandals from Margaux. The croc-embossed Italian calf leather gives them a sophisticated and effortlessly cool look. From business meetings and lunch dates to backyard parties, these handmade sandals will quickly elevate whatever you're wearing without the need for a heel. Equal parts fashion and function, these are the perfect addition to your summer vacation packing list.  As a devoted wearer of Rothy's Weekend Slide for everything from lunch dates to the office, I was thrilled to hear the brand recently debuted a slightly more elevated version, The Lightweight Wedge sandal. Designed with a stretchy heel strap to keep your foot secure and soft footbed, I knew right off the bat these would become my new favorite spring sandal. More pros: Extra cushioning, a rubber outsole for added traction, and a lightweight design that lends the appearance of a wedge sandal without the bulk in your suitcase. And as always with Rothy's, these new travel-friendly wedges are sustainably made and 100 percent machine washable. Grab them in ivory, brown, or black.  If it's the formal night on your cruise or you're headed to dinner in Florence where cobble stone streets are unavoidable, you might want to consider this lug sole sandal. Offering a one-inch platform and two-inch heel, these stylish strappy sandals are polished enough to wear with dresses, but won't leave your feet covered in blisters. With a padded insole and stretchy, elastic upper, these are the perfect alternative to wedges or block heels. Research director Alexandra Sanidad swears by them for every type of trip. Did we mention their machine washable?  We all want the ease of throwing on a simple pair of flip flops or slides while headed to lunch or the pool on vacation. For a more elevated look than your classic slip-ons, these neutral, sporty slides from Tory Burch are worth a spot in your suitcase. The chic leather sandals feature Tory Burch's signature double-T logo and pair well with bathing suit cover-ups or casual dresses.  If you already have a go-to pair of neutral-toned walking sandals, senior commerce editor Madison Flager suggests a pair of colorful Birkenstocks to switch things up from your everyday shoe. Not only are they great for the pool and comfortable enough for all-day wear, they also add a pop of color to even the simplest outfits in your suitcase, like a plain white T-shirt and denim shorts. The classic double-strap sandals come in colors like lavender, dusty blue, pink, light green, and white; however, black is the easiest one to dress up.  A sandal that's cute, comfortable to walk in, and water-friendly? The Reef Water Vista sandal really does it all, making it an ideal pair to pack for a cruise or a beach vacation . These are a favorite of commerce producer Paris Wilson —and it's easy to see why. This pair with an adjustable velcro back strap keeps your foot secure, offers great support, and looks a lot more stylish than classic pool shoes. Choose from a variety of colors including blush, hot pink, blue, brown, and black.  A comfortable upgrade to standard flip-flops worn to the pool—this soft, lightweight pair of sandals features water-resistant synthetic straps with a quick-drying jersey knit lining. The rubber outsoles have traction ridges inspired by a coral reef that give plenty of grip to avoid slipping. Plus, the sandal is available in plenty of fun summer colors like coral, orchid, pink, marine blue, and more.

MILAN (AP) — The post-pandemic surge in global sales of luxury handbags, shoes and apparel is set to stall this year amid a creativity crisis and price hikes as brands shift focus to the biggest spending customers, a new study by the Bain consultancy said Tuesday. Bain is forecasting flat worldwide luxury sales in 2024 following a slight first-quarter dip, according to the study commissioned by the Altagamma association. The consultancy cited political uncertainty during a presidential election year in the United States as well as economic uncertainty in China that has brought on a phenomenon of “luxury shaming.” Beyond socioeconomic factors and rising geopolitical tensions, the slowdown is also partly “self-inflicted,’’ said Bain partner Claudia D’Arpizio. She cited a “creativity crisis,’’ in the sector, as a number of major fashion houses are transitioning creative directors, and a new focus on the super-wealthy customers, at the expense of the aspirational middle class and Gen-Z youngsters who fueled growth before the pandemic. “There is a lack of clarity for many of these brands. They are making attempts to regain focus. It is five, six brands under turn-around, big ones. This is not helping the overall excitement,’’ D’Arpizio told The Associated Press. “This is a supply-driven industry. When you have the brands really in tune with customer needs, it usually reacts quickly.’’ She said some “tweaks” are needed on strategy and price points, adding that “you can’t grow without the middle class and younger generations.” Among major fashion houses, Gucci and Moschino have made runway debuts of their new creative directions, while the first Valentino collection by the new creative director hits the runway in September. Chanel has the position to fill after the incumbent resigned earlier this month. While inflation is one element of price hikes, D’Arpizio said brands are also refocusing on the estimated 6 million to 8 million consumers at the top of the pyramid as they search for better profit margins. At the same time, there has been less rejuvenation in the offerings. Steep price increases for items that don’t show significant innovation, and feel like something they have seen before, leaves customers “upset and puzzled.” Flat global luxury sales forecasts follow a pent-up post-pandemic spending surge that pushed sales during the 2021-23 period up 24% over 2019 levels. Last year, sales of personal luxury goods grew by 4% to 362 billion euros (about $388 billion) from 349 euros in 2022, due largely to a resurgence of U.S. and Asian tourism to Europe fueling purchases. Add in luxury travel, fine art, cars and yachts, the vast global luxury market expanded to 1.5 trillion euros last year — highlighting a trend toward experiences over tangible goods. Japan is a bright spot as the return of foreign tourists with the yen at the lowest level to the U.S. dollar in 20 years, while Europe continues strong trends due to tourist spending and an increase in local consumption, especially in French and Italian cities. |
