So at last count, I own about five pairs of Sperry Topsiders: Orange patent, lime green patent, basic brown, subtle metallic, etc. And I easily own just as many articles of footwear that intend to keep the water out: Duck boots, Hunter wellies, et al. So you can imagine my glee when I was wandering through the shops of Vancouver a few weeks ago and stumbled upon a Canadian-born hybrid: Native Shoes.
I bought the Corrado, which is like an incredibly comfortable, rubberized boat shoe, but they also turn out a pretty adorable Keds-like version, too, called the Jericho. Commuting to work in the rain has suddenly became infinitely less bulky: After all, there’s no need to stash an extra pair of shoes in my already encumbered bag, or to leave my rainboots behind at the office when the weather changes only to be stuck without at the next thunderstorm. Brilliant.
