Disappointed -
I have worn this model (0195115) TopSider for decades, and generally buy two or three pair at a time. This pair has two faults: (a) the serrated sole is poorly manufactured. The serrations are uneven, in some areas just an impression with no cut into the sole at all, hence its ability to grip a wet surface with confidence is far less, and (b) the leather seems a different and lower quality and perhaps a less durable shoe.

Not very authentic -
These Sperry Authentic Top-Sider Originals are knock-offs of what I remember the Original to be. The stitching is crude, the inside unfinished and unlined. They more resemble a cheap moccasin than an authentic boat shoe. However, they are fairly comfortable and fit my narrow foot well. The Zappos service was excellent, as usual.

Summer Comfort -
I had a pair of Top-Sider's since I was a kid and that's been a few years. Slip them on, enjoy the comfort and go. You don't even have to wear socks. They are great around water or the beach. Was nice being able to buy the original from you and not go to the mall. Loved the fast and actuate service and you even upgraded the shipping method at no cost to me. I will be buying another new pair soon (diff. color). Thanks for making life easy! Dennis

Not that great -
These are rather ill fitting shoes. I have a narrow foot, and although the size is correct (11.5 B), they are tight and hard to get my foot into. They are unlined (I wish I would have paid attention to a previous review that said that). I may buy another pair someday, but wider.

Only option -
The shoe has all the ingredients for casual summer wear. But the color is dark; and the leather is stiff; and the fit is mediocre. I buy a lot of casual Sperry stuff, but this shoe does not match the rest.

Great looking shoe, but it comes at a price.
Before I start typing my review on these shoes, let me just say that my feet aren't like a normal persons in that my right foot sits differently than my left due to a difference in bone structure (it isn't painful, so I haven't gotten corrective surgery). Anyway, this shoe looks great, but if your feet are the least bit flat or overly arched, then you will definitely need to buy insoles for these shoes. There isn't much arch support, though your heel will be safe and secure for the most part. These shoes are quite comfortable compared to your generic sandals. Of course, nobody wearing boat shoes with socks and therefore these topsiders make a great alternative to the regular sandal, which is usually pretty brutal on your feet. Overall, the shoe has a great look that I absolutely love, but if you're looking for comfort and ability, this isn't necessarily it.

I have had Sperry Topsiders in the past. These shoes do not feel as comfortable. I think it may be my age, requiring more cushion now.

These are basically slip ons which is great but you have to get a smaller size so they stay on. My experience is that beyond looking good, the feel and support are not very good. These shoes were not made for walking in them any distance. There is little cushion and nearly no support in them.

Not the same as the Original Original my husband has been wearing these for over 30 years, this pair is much narrower, to the point of causing a blister on the side of his foot below the small toe while just wearing around the house. He has never has to " break in" a pair of these before. Something with the way this is stitched has changed, they went back, we will need to find an alternative.

I would give the shoes zero stars if I could. My son has a dress code at school and wore them 4 tines inside the building. Part of one shoe undersole broke off on the fourth use. The shoes were purchased a month ago. I hope the company can resolve this issue to our satisfaction.

Your "extra-wide" sizes appear to be only D width. They are very narrow. I have been wearing your "Original" boat shoes and I am now 77 yrs old and I will not buy your shoes again. Quit shrinking them!

A bit of a low rating mainly due to the comparison between the previous Topsiders I had with these new ones. The old ones were nice and heavy using thick leather and lasted for a long time, close to 10 years. These feel more like moccasins. Very light and thin.

I really like the shoe but the sole on the right toe keeps coming apart. I assume it has something to do with my stride, but I cant imagine this hasn't happened to many others. 3 pairs in 2 months. I just kept believing it was a flaw in one pair.

Hopefully they last longer than the past four pair I have bought. I usually buy a pair a year and not always by choice. Life span of Sperry boat shoes is a year if you are lucky!!!!!! The past four pair I have bought the soles come off or get loose as they are glued instead of stiched and mine don't even get that wet. Isn't that suppose to be a feature of "BOAT SHOES"??? I have bought Sperry boat shoes for years and the quality has gone down hill while the price continues to go up, Recommend buying some Gorilla glue when you buy these. You will probably need it.!!!!!

The first night I wore them the front part of the sole broke off in front of the stitching. Been meaning to contact Sperry for a replacement.

The shoes look nice but on the inside of one of the shoes there is a piece that is not glued down. It is glued on the other shoe. I noticed this after having worn the shoe for the first time. Unfortunately I wore them for several hours making a return impossible. For the price paid for the shoes I expect better.

These were my favorite go-to summer shoes until this year. The
1st pair that were delivered, the soles disintegrated in less than 3 hrs of wear. The replacement pair had no insoles compared to my shoes from the previous year's shoes.

I used to really like these shoes and my last pair held up to 5 years of daily wear with no problem. This last pair I bought began falling apart within the first two weeks. I have seen other reviews noticing the same problem. It is a real shame that quality is going down hill. I would be willing to pay more money for this exact shoe built better.
To be more specific, the base of the shoe is coming unattached from the rest of the shoe.

My husband has purchased these shoes several times over the years but this recent pair apparently had a defect in the sole - the tip of the sole broke off the 2nd time he wore them. I'll return them and I'm hoping a replacement pair won't be a problem
