Riomar® Information

Riomar ™ prides itself on making the highest quality boat shoes in the world. Founded in 2012 by Lange Sykes, a lifetime waterman, conservationist and the company's founder and Creative Director, Riomar set out to make a highly functional, comfortable and fashion forward boat/deck shoe for men and woman. Riomar's patented "Bearing" design allows its wearer to customize and interchange one of the shoes design elements to fit the wearers immediate style for any social setting. Weather sailing, fishing or cruising, one can easily segue from the water to any social event and project confidence in their style while enjoying a superior comfort, fit. Riomar's patented Bearings are easily interchanged in seconds to invoke one's monogram, collegiate spirit, yacht club burgee, company logo, or any number of limitless designs. Riomar is about the ability to "Change Your Bearings, Not Your Sole," and live the coastal lifestyle in a shoe that is not only aesthetically pleasing but comfortable, functional, waterproof, antimicrobial and non-skid/non-marking. Riomar understands we cannot continue to enjoy this lifestyle without preserving our marine resources for future generations. It is that understanding that led its founder to start Riomar ™to bring awareness to these important issues and support "boots on the water" initiatives which affect positive change for the future.
