The canvas deck sneaker that 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(TM) 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 these year-round, with everything from swim trunks on deck to denim and trousers when popping out to dinner with friends.
