Lol it's cute how you make assumptions.
I skate, and am well aware that they're skate shoes, but I'm likely getting them in the boat shoe colorway, which actually looks like a boat shoe. Plus nike refers to them as boat shoe influenced. Also I needed kinda dressy shoes and it was that or sperrys...so yeah. I realize my first post sounded like I was calling them boat shoes, but I really just meant my mom wanted to get me somewhat classy shoes and they were my first thought, by no means was I actually convinced they were boat shoes.
