Rockport doesn’t get a ton of attention in sneakerhead circles, but these efforts are too solid to ignore.  We see their classic boat shoe updated with some blue and white striped fabric around the ankle.  This looks snappy with the rest of the shoe in tonal white.  There’s a chukka-like boot that could stand to lose the “Rockport” embroidery on the tongue, a quintessential “lifestyle sneaker” that needs to get rid of the “Rockport” on the strap.  The strapped model appears in strapless form for a very solid effort that rounds out the collection; it’s in black and red with a dash of buffalo plaid on the ankle.  Cop any or all of these at UrbanOutfitters or Karmaloop.  Via HB
