Review: Decathlon 'Sports' deck shoes


Getting comfortable shoes is a challenge these days, (middle-aged pipe smoking moment) and getting ones that you can wear while soaking wet, trying to walk at odd angles and climb over teak fittings, bits of seaweed, running water, all the while ropes and sheets are trying to trip you up at every moment.

So while looking around for some new deck shoes recently I found these in Deacthlon, priced at £24.99 they seemed like good value, and they are. While durability is still being tested they are comfortable dry out quick and provide lots of grip on Shoestring's wooden decks.

While colour options (and even sizes) maybe limited this range of deckshoes using modern materials and 'odour-free' designs seem to be good value. One word of note with all Decathlon / Triboard clothing is check sizes before you buy, sometimes they do come up a little odd.

Available from Decathlon Priced at £24.99 -Decathlon stores vary in their stock (and sometimes their prices) so be sure to call in advance.
