Customer Reviews Sperry AO 2 Eye Leather MM

These Sperry original shoes had very stiff dark brown laces that looked out of place on the tan leather. The honey color sole is also now brown color which doesn't match the tan leather. I guess whatever 3rd world country is making Sperry shoes now doesn't understand the original color scheme! I returned the shoes. I've been wearing Sperry originals for 30 years and it wasn't until recently that the quality went down.

I've worn Sperrys for more than 40 years but it looks like that relationship may be coming to an end. There was a time that your deck shoes lasted so long I actually had several pair resoled but like with most things those days are gone. Just within the last decade I've watched as the construction of your shoes got chintzier and chintzier. The insoles got thinner and less substantial to where now you're lucky if the insole stays in the shoe more than a couple wearings. My brother wears your shoes too and he has noted the same things. On my current pair the insoles came unglued after the third wearing and shortly thereafter the sole on the right shoe actually split along one of the sipe cuts. I've worn some soles thin but NEVER had them split! These shoes probably have 90% of their life left and they are now useless! I hope you can glean some useful information from this review but for now I'm switching to Sebagos. They aren't as good as the Sperrys of old but they are WAY better than your current deck shoes.

I always buy Sperry's, but this time, the outsole broked and the shoe is new, I used for a month. The other Sperry's I have, I've been using for years, and never had this problem.

I have worn Sperry for 50 years. This pair is an enormous disappointment. I took my size requirement from my current pair. The new ones were not even close. They are at least one size to small and one width to narrow. Returned them right away.

Didn't have the quality I expected

The look and quality were both terrific. The fit from a size and width point of view weren't bad, but the shoe didn't seem to have enough depth, if this is the right terminology. My foot didn't seem to sit deeply enough within the shoe to feel comfortable. It felt as though it would fall off during normal wearing. I have several other style Sperry shoes, 3-eyelet Bullseye most recently, that are great and fit and feel perfect, so I assume the problem with this shoe is unique to the cut or style.

We ordered these shoes three years ago and were extremely satisfied. However the 'extra wide' size is no longer extra wide. We compared the soles and there was a noticeable difference. Notified company and check with quality control and manufacturers. Hope they come back with extra wide is a true extra wide.

Received mine on Saturday. Tried wearing them on Sunday to assure fit, etc. and wear them in a little. After a short time I noticed they were sewn incorrectly on the right shoe on the inside between the sole and the leather. I returned them on Monday. We'll see what happens. Very disappointed in the quality. This should have been caught by whoever inspected the shoe. If I understand correctly I must wait possibly as long as 3 weeks for a refund and then reorder. Very inconvenient.

I have worn sperry topsiders all my life, no problem with fit until about ten years ago, can't get a wide shoe. Extra wide not offered

Recently bought my first pair of Sperrys in a while. The first thing I learned is that Sperry doesn't make a Topsider anymore. Topsiders were the "prep" that allows Sperry to now say "prep for all"; you had to have authentic Topsiders, or you didn't bother. In any event, I loved Sperry and I needed another pair. What I got was a pair of brown made-in-Dominican-Republic-run-of-the-mill boat shoes with a Sperry logo. They are uncomfortable; they're not getting better; they scrape my heel, though they are the correct size; the soles wear out quickly; and they look worse for the very moderate wear like the "Authentic" Sperrys never did. Some may like the new Sperrys. I like the Sperrys I used to know, and these aren't them. I cannot recommend these shoes, especially at the inflated price.

Bought these Black Sperry's last year (2017) never worn till this year. I have worn these shoes mostly around the house, worn them out only twice and they are falling apart at the seams. I have always have owned a pair of Sperry's and have never had problems with them like this pair. I guess the workmanship is getting worse. I tried to upload a photo but it says that was an error. Tried several times keeps happening.

I'm 56 years old and have for most of my life owned one and usually several pairs of topsiders at any given time. I've always just expected quality because it's always been there. Not this time. I bought a new pair 3 months ago to replace my previous pair that had has seen better days. 3 months and they're already in worse shape than the pair I've had two years. Understand that these are my go to shoes. I wear them almost as often as my flip flops so they do get heavy use, but never have I had a pair do this. The lining on the insole came unglued within a week and a half and now the stitching is coming loose. What's changed? Different manufacturing facility? I don't know but I'm now very hesitant to replace these with another pair of sperrys. I'm going to search out more boat shoe options. I've never had a reason to look before but I assume there are other brands to choose from.

Look great but too narrow and inside feels weird

The sole of my sperry's started peeling up at the front of the sole by the balls of my feet from the day I got them. Then about 6 months after I bought them the sole came out completely.
