Description
A boat shoe carries its history on the outside: the moccasin stitch, the low profile, the shape that came off the water. The DS 03 keeps that line and sets it on our own sole. Full-grain leather from an LWG Gold tannery in Portugal marks, then settles. A full leather lining and a memory foam insole inside. Wear it with chinos, linen or rolled denim.
Premium features
- The boat shoe line, set on our own sole instead of the traditional one.
- Handmade in Portugal, in a family-run factory. Designed in the Netherlands.
- Full-grain leather, LWG Gold tannery in Portugal. Marks, settles, holds its shape for years.
- Every finished pair is inspected before it goes in the box.
- Between 20 and 40 separate components in every pair, passing through many hands.
- Removable memory foam insole. Softens to your foot.
Show all 12 features
- A full leather lining that softens with wear and settles to the shape of the foot.
- Our own sole, from our own mould. Enough give to walk all day, firm enough to hold shape.
- Reinforced toe and heel counter. Holds its shape wear after wear.
- The ETQ signature square at the heel.
- A reusable travel bag comes in the box, for wherever the shoes go next.
- Order one pair and the white box is the shipping box. No second carton to throw away.
Size & fit
- Fits true to size.
Material info
Full grain is the top layer of the hide, left intact. Nothing is sanded or buffed away, so the natural grain and the strongest fibres of the leather stay exactly where they are. That makes it the most durable leather finish there is. Our full grain is tanned by Curtumes Iberia in Alcanena, Portugal, an LWG Gold certified tannery, and every hide is inspected on finish, colour, surface and thickness before cutting. Small variations in grain and colour are natural, and proof the surface is untouched. It starts firm, softens with wear, and builds a patina that deepens over the years.
Care
- Wipe clean with a soft, slightly damp cloth
- Condition with leather cream now and then
- If wet, let dry naturally, away from heat
Removable insole

DS01 - great shoe
Love these. Very versatile for different occasions. Started with suede and have just bought leather for winter.

The style is different, and that's great. It looks just like the photos. It runs a little large. I usually wear a 42.5 or 43, but size 42 fits me well.

Everything was perfect!
The order arrived quickly, the size was changed quickly, and the new item was shipped right away

I love this shoe brand! The only thing that could be improved is the delivery date selection! My order is delivered to my work address outside of office hours! The options are limited...

Smart casual boatshoe
Great shoe if you like an alternative to the classic footwear underneath a pantalon. Wears well, good quality. If between two sizes choose the smaller one.

Sleek design and high quality
Great shoes—I'm really happy with them! I'm torn between 4 and 5 stars, but since they creak and squeak so much (hopefully just at first), I'm giving them 4. Truly high quality!

I was hesitant to order the shoes online, but there are good tools available to help you order the right size. The shoes themselves fit great—I danced all day at a wedding and didn't have any sore feet; the sole is great. The fabric and design are high quality. Highly recommended :).

Great look and feel, but be mindful of the size.
The quality, the look, awesome. The sizing on the other hand, is totally not as described. The built in calculator told me to get 46 (I have wide feet and usually have a 45), but when I got them they were massive. Returned them for a 44, but even this still feels big. With an extra sole and some padding I was able to fix it, but I’m afraid I won’t wear them as much because of this.

Sturdy Shoe
These shoes are very stiff and hard, and they gave me blisters the very first time I wore them. I wouldn't recommend them to anyone with a wide foot, because they're uncomfortable and too tight.

Horrible horrible horrible customer service
As I had the shop app installed on my phone, the product got ordered against my intention without asking for details/address. I immediately emailed but of course got an AI agent respond saying sorry, too bad. I explained the situation but no one cared. Never coming back, and making sure none of my friends do too. What a horrible experience which could have been easily solved by a simple cancellation. And then I had to pay 7euros and waste an hour of my time to return the product. Terrible.

Shoes was exceptional but a replacement issue
The shoes are incredibly comfortable and of excellent quality. However, the delivery process was disorganized and error-prone. After I had to return them for a different size, it took about a month before I finally received the replacement. That simply isn’t good enough.

Nice shoes, run small, no returns
The shoes come in very elegant packaging and look high-quality. Unfortunately, I had trouble with the return because the 14-day return period was calculated from the date the package was dropped off at the post office in the Netherlands. I contacted customer support but haven't received a response yet.
Handmade in Portugal.
Cut from premium nappa, full grain and suede, then built on the last by makers who do little else. It takes years to master a shoe. We’re still finding ways to make it better.
See how it's made
One box. Nothing wasted.
Order one pair and it ships in the white box, no second carton, nothing thrown away. Inside, a reusable ETQ travel bag for wherever they go next. A detail you notice after you buy, not just before.
