Customer Reviews Sperry A/O 2-Eye

I bought these shoes for my son. He wears them all spring and summer long. They go with just about everything he wears. At first they feel a little tight but after a couple of times wearing them they fit great.

I absolutely love my A/O and have owned my current pair for nearly 5 years. I wear them everywhere day in and day out. Their classic style can be worn for all sorts of occasions. Nothing compares to a well broken in pair of topsiders that have conformed to your feet! I wish I didn't have to replace the pair I own but the stitching that connects the upper to the sole has finally given out. If only you could send them in to have them resoled or at the very least be able to purchase new heel insoles, (my heel insoles could have been replaced after the first 2 years). The only major negative aspect I have noticed, and this may just be only me, but every once and a while the eyelets on the side of the shoe closest to the other foot will snag on the eyelets of the other shoe bending it out or spinning it causing it to become a very sharp edge that will scrape and cut my opposite ankle or shoe. Typically I just fix it buy bending it back in place until it happens again. Overall I wouldn't recommend any other pair of boat shoes. P.S. Is there a chance an A/O Gold Cup style be made rather than the current ASV 2-Eye Boat Shoe style? I love the flexibility and simplicity of the A/O but would also love to see them made with the plush genuine deerskin lining.

your selction in widths needs to be expanded. My foot is not that slim but your medium width is far to wide . Great shoe and just need better size slection.

I have owned at least 10 pairs of the authentic originals alone. The Sperry Top-sider A/O is the only shoe that I will never retire. Absolutely perfect for khakis, jeans and chino shorts. The only problem I have ever had with these is that they just fit so narrow. I don't know why but they always just looked stretched out on my foot. My foot isn't very wide either. I love these shoes to death but they have never truly fit the way I wanted them too. Other than that, they are a great pair of stylish shoes.

Shoe looks great and was different - no innersole support for arch.

We ordered one pair and they stretched. We had to give those away and order a 2nd pair.

Shoe looked and felt great. Color came off and ruined light colored socks. Don't know how long that will happen. Have not ever had that happen before, but the color was amaretto so maybe there is something peculiar to that dye.

Love the shoes!! Fit and style was everything I thought it would be!!

Sperry seems to sell the idea that these are boat shoes... but really they're a lot more like dock shoes, I love these shoes to death, I'm the preppy high school student that wears khaki's and a fishing shirt to school with my Sperry's, but when i wear them fishing, the salt and everything destroys them. so note to anyone that buys these shoes to actually wear in a marine environment... prepare to buy another pair! not to say that I still dont love them, they're definitely my favorite pair of shoes I own.

I love Sperry top-sider shoes they're extremely comfortable and require no breaking in. They're stylish and they can be worn as dress shoes or casual shoes. I bought this pair for my boyfriend for Christmas. The only complaint that I have about the pair I bought is that when I ordered them online and had them shipped to my house they arrived with scratches in the leather. Fortunately, he did not mind, but I was a little bit upset about it. If you want to make sure that your shoes come in perfect condition without scratches, I recommend buying them in person.

I have always been a Sperry fan over the last 35 years, since the 70s; even before they were cast to immortality when they came out in the Preppy Handbook of the 80s. Simply put, Top-Siders are the only shoes i know of, which look equally classy worn with pants or shorts. Living in a tropical country but frequently traveling abroad, they have been a constant, versatile companion and have never let me down. My personal choice are two-tone Tops with brass eyelets. Class to the max! Next would be the deep blues with the white eyelets. Then the classic greens. Further, for me, anything without Sperry squeegee soles are not boat shoes. That totally seamless pattern that only starts to open up and look/perform better with use, over time. In fact, everything about Sperry looks better and more personal over time. The core of Sperry lies in its adherence to quality; something not commonly found especially in this day and age and something that should make Sperry even shine brighter than ever. Sperry forever... hopefully.

Good all around comfortable shoe. Very sporty looking and wide variety of colors available. Great for wearing around house or yard when you just have to throw something on your feet.

Good shoe but it ran a size too big! The laces also are difficult to keep died sometimes.

I've been wearing this particular boat shoe for the last 20 years-same size & same style each time I wear a pair out. Great product,-this particular one not as wide as wide should be but the leather stretches to match the foot inside!

Excellent shoes!!! I dont have a single complaint accept that I would like to be able to purchase more styles in the EXTRA WIDE size. I mean I love my Saharas and Classic Browns but the Oatmeal color would be nice to have too. Dear Sperry Top-Sider, Fix this and I will give you 5 stars!!!

Great product, but unfortunately the order came damaged. The top of one of the shoes had a very large, noticable scrape/discoloration. I would have thought quality control would have caught this before shipping out.

now that i have them broken in, we're going to get along just fine. i do see another pair in my future! i know a lot of people that have these and have never heard a complaint, add one more to the list!

Great looking and feeling shoe. Only problem has been a minor one with the overall quality. The second time I wore the shoe, one of the metal shoelace gromets came completely out.

Obviously, Sperry's look great. However, they are not actually good sailing shoes. The grip is poor and they slip off to easily. The worst part is that if they do slip off, or if one accidentally knocks one out of the cockpit, they don't float! Who makes a sailing shoe that doesn't float?! Consequently, I have 3 single mismatched shoes. Unfortunately, they are all left feet.

I have had several pairs of the classic dark brown boat shoes over the years and was excited to get the new black color. However I am not thrilled about the ring of black dye coming off the shoe onto my feet...a little unsightly.

I have been using this shoes since secondary school and after finishing college. value for money.

I ordered my boyfriend a pair of these for his birthday and he absolutely loved them! However, we did find them to run a little larger than we expected. He always wears a size 13 in other shoes but these were different - we're having to exchange them for a 12. Otherwise, no qualms - we're happy with them.

I have a hard time finding stylish shoes in my size that are reasonably priced. I buy these over and over again. They last me two summers; and I'm very hard on shoes. My only gripe is that, after awhile, the insole comes out when I take the shoe off.

This is a nice looking shoe and my son said it was comfortable, *BUT* the picture indicates it has a squared-off toe when indeed it does not. Had to return them.

Very satisfied with the style and the quality of this product.
