HH Skagen race

- www.hellyhanse­n.com

The Skagen Race look and feel like trainers. They have good padding, and the thick foam sole absorbs a lot of impact when on deck. The mesh upper is quick drying and has a hydrophobi­c coating with minimal, seamless stitching on the upper. With no holes in the sole, drainage was limited to just the mesh and after 1:30 there was still 350ml of water left in the shoe.

In spite of the limited toe protection they were very comfortabl­e and the razor-cut sole gave the best overall grip in the wet test.
