Having worn Sperry's or something similar for over 40 years, it's hard not to notice the change in quality even across the last few years. The leather seems less substantial and the eyelets will stay in place only a couple of weeks at best. The soles while like the old ones have the tried and true design for traction, yet the depth of the cuts are thinnest I have ever seen. I love my boat shoes and will always have a pair but have to admit to being a bit disappointed in the decline in quality.

I've owned over 10 pairs of these shoes in different styles throughout the past 10 years. I wear them to work, to lounge, to exercise (I know I shouldn't, but I do), and everything in between. Sperry's are my go to shoe every day. They are cozy, stylish, and practical. The only problem I've ever faced was the sole ripping from the shoe. I am usually able to keep a pair 1-2 years depending on how long it takes for the sole to rip (I think I had one pair that lasted me 4 years). Sadly, the sole separating from the top part of the shoe has happened to EVERY SINGLE pair I have ever owned. I am going to get the Gold Cup in hopes that the build quality is better. Now, it's hard to knock the shoe when it could be my fault the sole is breaking. I bike, run, play basketball, stretch, walk, boat, etc in the shoes. Giving them such an intense beating, I should expect breakage. Just wish they lasted a bit longer. If the Gold Cup doesn't workout, I may have to switch to a different style loafer/shoe. For the price of the shoes, and the amount I've owned, I shouldn't have to keep buying a new pair every 1-2 years. Overall though, the shoes are amazing. Most versatile shoe I've ever owned. You can wear them in rain, sleet, or snow and they still perform great. I'd suggest getting your true size or .5 size smaller than your usual. They are leather, and after breaking them in they stretch a bit. If you get them wet, they'll shrink the the original size once they are dry, but not smaller. I'm a 13.5 and I always go with the 13.

I own an older Sperry topsider 10W leather pair that has served me well for over 5 years. My dress Florshiem shoes are 10EEE. So I order these replacement Sperry topsiders 10XW. But I could barely get my feet into these new shoes. While the shoes were marked 10XW, I think the fit was really a D (or just a W). I returned them. I had to order 10EEEEE from a competitor. :-(

The show fits slightly small and is narrow but overall is of great quality. Shipping was fast and free but returns take multiple weeks.

We bought the shoes since my husband has an old pair that he loves that he has outgrown as his feet have become more wide over the years. The old pair was a wide (EE) they were now too narrow so we ordered the EEE and the shoes were was still too narrow. We love the look of the shoe but alas, we'll need to find something else that works.

Bought these for my husband since we were happy to see they had extra wide sizes. Unfortunately, the width was still too narrow even though he wears other shoes in this size that fit fine.

I wear a women's size 9, and am very happy with the men's size 7.5 in this shoe. It is very comfortable, and better constructed than the women's options. My forefoot in particular is wider than average, and the women's version is too narrow. Men's shoes are often more massive-looking/foot-covering, but I find these are still attractive on me. I am planning to actually wear these on a boat. My husband has a pair as well, which he is very happy with for sailing.

Got these as a gift in blue. They are very comfortable and the leather is high quality. I have a narrower foot, so they fit a little loose, but other than that, they are excellent!

This will be my third pair of the Sperry Authentic Original Boat Shoe. I was sold on this shoe after wearing my first pair all day the day I received them in the mail. The comfort, look and fit are all perfect and I will continue wearing this shoe for years to come. Great job Sperry for making such a durable and functional shoe that has all the bases covered.

Second pair of Sperry Boat shoes, in 4 months. First pair was from a whole sales department store. The brown is a classic style for your first Sperry. I am a true 7.5 and the fit was perfect. Second pair I decided to purchase on-line (Navy). I order size 7.5, and they were a half size to small. I would advice to purchase a half size larger in this style.

These are probably as comfortable as any other sperry boat shoe... the soles are not particularly soft or cushiony. Think that's just how they are. Tolerable though. I got the Classic Brown and am happy with the look. They look a little too nice before they're broken in, but I think they'll age nicely.

This shoe is very nice. Nicely made, excellent quality. The fit is what is a bit off. We ordered an 11.5 and we're sending it back for 8.5. Use the size chart before ordering!!! It will save you some time.

I bought this show because of the way it looked online. I received it today and the show is really elegant and well made. Unfortunately, for me the shoe was a little tight even though I ordered wide with, I also was not a fan of the material used for the shoe laces, they are stiff and difficult to tighten. Still the shoe is beautiful and well made.

I have wide feet and am flatfooted, so I have to wear orthotics with all my shoes. Overall, the orthotics made the shoe a little wider than it needed to be, but the shoe itself was very comfortable and stylish. Be warned, don't wear these if it's been raining outside and you have to walk anywhere; the front most part of the sole has a habit of leaking in water. Solid shoe.

These are classic ... but I've found that sizing seems to vary, depending on where these are made. Over the years Sperry has outsourced the manufacture of these to various countries, and the size seems to vary a little based on where they are manufactured.

These are one of the most durable boat shoes I've had. They are by no means water resistant and they are leather, treat them with proper care and product. I believe they are a half size too big for me. I got a 7.5 wide, and I'm usually a 7.5 wide, but I should have gotten a 7 Wide. The wide width is great, except for when the leather stretches and then they became too wide. Now, they sort of are just too floppy and aren't secure to my feet. Synthetic shoes don't do this, so be aware that when you get the shoes they will break in and be a little bigger. The sole is a little thin, and causes a little pain in my knees when I'm on my feet all day. All in all, I do not regret the purchase but would recommend trying them on in store and understand that leather needs proper care. Great for casual wear, they can be dressed up or down. I will not be wearing these to work, on a ship, anymore.

This shoes is a classic. You can really dress it up or down and can be worn in almost any occasion. Would recommend them to anyone- it can really be a nice fashion staple. *Make sure to water proof them though

This shoe is the classic boat shoe. My wife wore this shoe back in the 1880's in high school. A true classic !
