Sperry is back with its third collaboration with New York City-based retailer Colbo.
This time around, the two have come back together to update the Authentic Original 2-Eye boat shoe in three constructions. From airy Italian jute and linen to richly worn-in distressed brown leather, each style features leather insoles and leather-rubber outsoles.
Tal Silberstein, co-founder and designer of Colbo, said in a statement that its newest collection with Sperry was developed with the goal of creating a boat shoe that feels “easy and ready-to-wear” from day one. “Natural fibers, softened structure, and finishes that wear in, not out,” Silberstein noted.
Jonathan Frankel, president of Sperry licensee Aldo Product Services, added that the working relationship with Colbo “feels natural.”
“We share a real belief in keeping things authentic and easy,” Frankel said. “With their team, the goal was simple: create pieces that move with you between city life and escape without feeling overdesigned.”
To mark the launch of the new collection, the two companies came together on a campaign captured by a collective of photographers including Lucia Bell-Epstein, Austin Calvello and Marina Coenen. Each photographer captured summer postcard-like images that aim to “embrace small, sun-soaked moments.”

Sperry first teamed up with Colbo in June 2025 on a range of soft leather boat shoes. A follow up collection came in September with an updated take on Sperry’s Captain’s Oxford.
The new Sperry x Colbo Authentic Original 2-Eye boat shoe range, which retails between $235 and $275, is available at Sperry.com, in-store and online at Colbo and at Revolve. Another limited edition collab style between the two company is expected to be announced in the fall.
