A great shoe for my boy, who has a very wide foot and has an extremely sensitive foot. These shoes are soft and flexible right out of the box. They are stylish enough for church but look equally good with jeans.

This is the 3rd year and the 5th pair I've bought for my son. He loves these shoes. He has a narrow foot so it's so nice they come in narrow. He wears them all the time and I have to make him wear his sneakers for gym. They are always the same great quality.

The Sperry Top-Sider is a great shoe. I will return to shop at Zappos when my nine year old out grows the pair I just purchased for him. Our school requires children to wear non marking dress shoes every day. My son has a narrow flat foot. The Colton Youth narrow is a perfect fit. The quality Sperry product and first rate customer service from Zappos makes the price tag worth every penny. My son said, "Mom, this is the most comfortable shoe I have ever worn."

It is so difficult to find a dressy 'wide' shoe for little boys. I now have 2 grandsons with a wide foot! This is a nice classic shoe that goes from season to season. It is always right and holds up very well. This is our 3rd pair for the older grandson. He calls them his "Pop shoes"!

Kids Sperry Dress Shoe - This shoe gets high marks from me due to its comfort and no complaining from the kids while wearing them. I have all boys that do not hesitate to let me know when something hurts and these were great. Thanks for the great service too. I had these shoes overnight for a wedding.

My 10 yr old son loves these shoes. He wore them for the holidays and said they were very comfortable. Great with dress pants, as well as, jeans & cords. Can't beat that!!

Great for dressy and back to school - My son wore these for a turn as ring bearer in a wedding. They fit true to size and seemed very comfortable. I will incorporate them into his back to school wardrobe.

Classic preppy penny loafers for kids - You can't go wrong with Sperry Kid's Coltons. They are beautifully made and finished, and without the laces you'd find on suede bucks. They do appear to run a little narrow, but otherwise true to size. These are perfect for those dress up times with blue blazers and khaki pants. My kids like them (and they HATE dressing up).

Kids wide loafers - My son has extra wide feet. I have been ordering these dress shoes from Zappos for a few years now. This is the only site I can find wide shoes to fit him. Thanks Zappos!

GOOD LOOKING - These are the loafers for the holiday season. Dressy enough for Christmas but yet can be used for regular Sunday church. They are very very comfortable (one son loved them, the other did not) but for a 6 year old to ask to wear these shoes says a lot.

Great Shoe - I keep buying these shoes for my children year after year. They are very comfortable and stylish. As with most slip on shoes made for kids, you may need to put a small pad in the heel to prevent slipping. Other than that, these shoes are perfect.

Sperry Kid's Colton - My son loves this shoe because it is a slip-on. I like the look - it doesn't look childish - which is good for a 10-year-old. He says that they are very comfortable.

Sperry Colton loafer - The only dress shoe my twin boys (9) will wear! They have worn this same style shoe for 4 years now. Very classic, can be dressed up or down, does not seem to need much breaking in. Very happy with the service, the shoes came a day after I placed the order!

Even my picky child liked these shoes! I have looked everywhere for a pair of loafers for my son...no one seems to carry them in the stores. I took a chance and ordered these, in 2 different sizes, and they fit great. My son has a narrow foot and heel and his foot didn't slip very much. We just put an insert into the back of the one shoe, and it's perfect...he even looks forward to wearing them. I will DEFINITLY buy from Zappos.com in the future.

Good looking shoe - This shoe is very good looking and dressy. It was a bit tight, but maybe will stretch out after a few more wears.

Great school shoes. My 7 year old boy loved them at the first look. They are really elegant while still comfortable. He will not want to use other shoes since he has these. Great deal!!

Very classy looking shoes - The shoes are very classy looking, especially when my son is all dressed up in a suit or casual slacks and pull over top. The shoes are a little big for him but it will mean that he has room for growth.
