Founded in 1946, the Sebago Company was started by three New England natives and friend.The first shoe they released was a hand-sewn penny loafer. Sebago’s penny loafer was inspired by the popular Indian moccasin and featured the company’s patented welt construction. It was a BIG success. With a firm foundation in quality and style, the Sebago Company started to expand quickly. Now specialising in deck shoes, Sebago Docksides are loved by sailors all over the world.
