Sebago is an American Maine-based company creating boating and deck shoes, as well as dress shoes. Sebago was founded in 1946.[1] In 2017, BasicNet acquired Sebago from Wolverine World Wide.[2]
During the 1980s, the Sebago "Docksides" become a fashion trend at universities and high schools across the United States, as it was mentioned in The Official Preppy Handbook.[3] In 1981, Sebago "Campsides" (a type of blucher moccasin, which, like docksiders, are traditionally worn without socks) were introduced. Three years later in 1984, Sebago sponsored the Single-Handed Trans-Atlantic Race in 1984 and the America's Cup in 1992.[3]
Sebago also offers penny loafers in casual and dress styles; the Classic Dan style is the most popular.
