Moku Pae

 

In Hawaiian, moku pae translates to “go ashore” which perfectly surmises the design of this crafty boat shoe.

Coupled with our signature Drop-In-Heel® for shoe or slide functionality, Moku Pae doubles down on comfort, no matter the outing. Featuring a non-marking Wet Grip Rubber outsole to keep scuff marks off the boat, this dock-to-deck shoe also excels in the slipperiest of conditions. 


Minimally lined, Moku Pae is constructed with a lightweight and high-rebound EVA midsole for excellent underfoot comfort. Its dual-density anatomical PU footbed also boasts a gel insert for maximum comfort and breathability. And since the footbed is removable and washable, keeping them clean is as easy as hosing them off.
