Decked out for summer’s social calendar of nautical events

EXETER, U.K. - July 2, 2013 - PRLog -- A highlight of the British summer social calendar, Cowes Week sailing regatta on the Isle of Wight attracts sailors, celebrities, Olympians and royals, bringing a splash of glamour to the Solent in August.  If you’re planning a day on the Island for the thrill and excitement of the event you can look the part in a pair of elegantly stylish, and comfortable, deck shoes from Chatham.

The deck shoe has come of age, still practical it’s also trendy, even cutting edge.  Chatham’s enormous choice of styles and colours makes its deck shoes versatile - wear them with hot pants or vintage dresses, or work them with skinny, boyfriend or flared jeans, or 7/8 cottons.

Summer’s not summer without the nautical look, and navy blue or traditional tan deck shoes are just the thing.  For a touch of extra style opt for Chatham’s more unusual colours - sophisticated stripes in bold reds, pastel corals, strong cerises and cobalt blues or softer sky blues and creams.

Chatham recommends Candy in red stripe – tradition meets style with this gorgeous candy striped washable canvas boat shoe.  Costs £69

If you’re lucky enough to venture onto a yacht, rest assured the rubber soles will ensure no slippages! And if it rains your deck shoes will hold up just fine.

You might prefer heels but flat deck shoes are the stylishly comfy option for a day watching the action shore-side at Cowes, or soaking up the event’s festival atmosphere at the social gatherings around town and free live music at the harbour.  The Aberdeen Asset Management Cowes Week is from 3 - 10 August 2013. Entrance is free for spectators.
