The Homer is inspired by Alaska commercial fishermen who prefer to step into a lightweight shoe during the down time when they aren&';t working the decks or when the fish aren&';t biting. The Homer is water resistant with a slipper like feel. It features a soft wool upper with a full faux-shearling lining keeping you warm and cozy, while the molded EVA insole provides added comfort. The classic XTRATUF non-marking Chevron outsole delivers great slip resistance in this easy-to-wear step-in shoe. Based on customer feedback we recommend ordering up one whole size (updated 11/12/2020).
