Nordstrom is riding the boat shoe trend with the latest edition of its Make Room for Shoes program.

According to the department store chain, it has teamed up with Sperry for the month-long event that gives Nordstrom customers access to a limited-edition capsule collection of footwear designed specifically for the retailer.

Nordstrom said that the exclusive Sperry collection includes unique styles for men, women and kids and will be available at all its stores and on Nordstrom.com. Prices range from $54.99 to $175, and all exclusive styles are presented in premium slide-open shoe boxes and come with co-branded dustbags, adding an elevated touch to the collection.

Some highlights from the collection include the classic Authentic Original boat shoe done in brown, white, and pink, each adorned with intricate beadwork, as well as the same style made in blue-and-white nautical stripes and accented by playful crabs, martinis and additional fun details.

It presents a perfect opportunity for Sperry to showcase our exciting new spring collection to Nordstrom’s customers and offer exclusive editions of our iconic boat shoes, designed specifically for Nordstrom.”
