Established in 1946 by three friends from New England, Daniel J. Wellehan Sr., William Beaudoin, and Joseph Cordeau, the Sebago® Company launched with a hand-sewn penny loafer as its inaugural product. Drawing inspiration from the widely favoured Indian moccasin, Sebago’s® version of the penny loafer incorporated the brand’s proprietary welt construction, marking a significant triumph. Built on a solid base of quality and style, Sebago® experienced rapid growth soon after its inception.

Another form of footwear in which the brand excels is the iconic, style-classic, boat shoe. Check out our pick of 6 of the best boat shoes from Sebago® below:
