Sperry’s Boat Shoe Summer party this weekend at The Rockaway Hotel was a place of fantastic summer fun in the sun.
The heritage footwear brand pool party on the legendary shores just south of Manhattan featured special guest DJ sets from Mei Kwok, Captains of Industry, & UNIIQU3.
Summer’s new sophisticated style and colorful visions of Sperry were enjoyed by all.
Guests at the phenomenal party such as Katherine Cousins, Sperry President, and Elizabeth Drori, Sperry CMO, expressed the beautiful sentiment.
Celebrating the glorious style of summer, Drori reflected, “So this past year, we released in addition to the AO Float (Authentic Original Float Boat Shoe), a new line that is super cushiony and comes in amazing colors. We continue to build different iterations of this cool franchise, which is waterproof, super lightweight, very comfortable and very reasonably priced.”
The Boat Shoe Summer event brought together hundreds of notables to celebrate Sperry’s signature boat shoe – an iconic design known to be the most prominent trend of preppy style – invented nearly 90 years ago by Paul Sperry.
Astral Tequila, a new tequila from Diageo and the signature spirit of Sperry Boat Shoe Summer, was toasted with Astral signature cocktails.
Sperry was founded in 1935 by avid sailor, inventor and intrepid explorer Paul Sperry, and the brand has built a legacy of innovation for over eight decades. As creators of the world’s first boat shoe, Sperry is fully rooted in American style and continues to craft the tools for life’s memorable experiences on, off and by the water. Sperry strives to be inclusive, environmentally conscious, community oriented, and purpose driven. Sperry is a division of Wolverine Worldwide, Inc. www.sperry.com @sperry
