What Bazaar editors are saying: “Never before did I think I would be a boat shoe convert, but here I am in 2025 and they are my most-worn ommuter shoes to the office. You’ll rarely catch me wearing high-heels (maybe a kitten heel at best), so I always gravitate towards flats for taking on New York’s gritty streets. Miu Miu’s version, which first debuted on the runway during its spring/summer 2024 show, has been a steady staple in my wardrobe. They’re ultra-lightweight, unfussy, and highly comfortable, allowing me to log more than 10,000 steps on my busiest days, when I have morning appointments and evening events.
I know these are an investment buy, but if you clock the price per wear, I’ve easily paid for these (multiple times over). I wear them with everything from trousers, jeans, midi skirts, and dresses—they’re that good.” — Julie Tong, senior commerce content lead
