I'm a busy mom of three, and have been a Zappos customer for over ten years. They continue to "wow" me with their unbelievable customer service and quality products.

I needed to replace my boat shoes of many years but they were no longer manufactured. I look high and low for a high quality, comfortable shoe that was handsome and would accommodate my full- shoe orthotic. These provided everything I was looking for and Zappos not only had the best price but they also delivered them quickly and in good condition. Note: they may seem a little tight at first but will stretch and loosen with wear. Mine are now as comfortable as my old ones.

They are the softest, most comfortable top-siders, largely because they are lined with extra soft leather. I've never had lined top-siders before and the extra layer of leather makes for a different shoe. You can wear them sockless in colder weather. And they look better than the others that look like beat up slippers. Just know the difference.

I've owned several pair of Sperry shoes over the years and I finally decided to upgrade to the Gold Cup series. These shoes are dramatically more comfortable and feel like they will last longer than the base Sperry shoes. I'm very happy with the comfort and the quality of these shoes and I highly recommend that you step up to these if your budget allows. Will only buy Gold Cup going forward after my experience with these.

I am extremely hard on shoes. If I can get a shoe to last 6 months without falling apart it is unusual. I have had this pair of shoes for 5 years. I cannot wear this pair out. I do have the same trouble with the eyelets on the side popping out. But I don't care, I will wear my new shoes to work (casual) and delegate my old pair to working around the yard, house and in the shop.

I purchased these for my husband. The expense was a concern, but my DH has very bad feet and ankles. I worry about injury for him and find a supportive shoe to be cheaper than working through injuries. He has worn them for about two weeks and LOVES them. He said they are some of the most comfortable shoes he's ever worn. My husband walks a lot and is on his feet all day, so I'm glad he has something that feels good. I think they look very handsome. His still look brand new, but I do think that the boat shoe construction is prone to disintegrating just due to all the seams. Over the last four years, DH's gone through four pair of Sperry Topsider Billfish because at the one year mark we'd find a hole near the toe box. I don't know if these will do the same, but for now, the comfort level and beauty of the shoe has made everyone really pleased with the purchase.

Best casual shoe I have ever had. This is my 3rd pair in 7 yrs. They look nice and are very comfortable, require very little break in. Nothing like walking in a regular deck shoe or driver, much more support an comfort.

Spend the extra money, worth every penny! I am an instructor and on my feet all day. Remember the Zappos experience if they are on your feet you will keep, if not send back for free. Woohoo can't beat that deal.

I require a rocked in my left shoe. That shoe is at the repair shop having the rocker installed. I wish I could order with the rocker installed. The shoe repair person has a difficult time installing it.

This gold cup is classic Sperry. Yes they are expensive, but you get what you pay for. My last pair lasted almost 10 years. Living in south Florida these are every day all year round shoes.

My husband loves these shoes! They are comfortable and can be dressed up or down. I ordered his normal size but in a wide width as sometimes he is a wide. The regular width I had ordered had been way too narrow. The removable insole is comfy but it tends to "re-arrange" itself or come out upon removing the shoes. Putting foot powder in the shoes seems to help that.

The problem I had was with getting the shoes on.
I have a very high arch and swollen ankles.
The foot opening length between the heel and the tongue of the shoe was not long enough for my feet to enter even using a shoe horn.
This situation probably applies to every few.

This is my second pair. I've loved the first ones for several years. Very comfortable. I go walking in them often. Feet and legs don't get tired. They are well made and worth every penny.

My husband wears Sperry Top-Siders all the time - they are his favorite. He likes that they fit true to size, are comfortable, and wear well. He especially likes the Gold Boat style because they give his feet more support. They're his preferred shoes for traveling, too.

After buying several other brands of boat shoes, I found the Gold Cup to be superior. I just purchased my second pair. The shoes are attractive and comfortable. The only problem I've had with the first pair is one of the eyelets came loose and couldn't be put back in place.

I have many pairs of very expensive shoes made in Europe; they pale in comparison to my Sperry ASV Gold Cup Top-siders I am in the process of replacing my entire collection of expensive shoes with Sperry ASV technology shoes. At 73 years of age, comfort and great looks are important to me in my active lifestyle

Great shoes and great service from Zappos! Probably my 20th pair of Sperry Top-Siders but first pair of the top of the line. Big difference in added comfort and quality workmanship. Very happy for my choice and glad I spent the extra money.

I bought a pair of black ones at a sale price through Zappos and I have been waiting for a sale on the brown ones so that I could buy another pair. I have enjoyed my black pair in spite of the in sole curling up. However, I feel that the price is too much and the sale price I paid for my black ones was reasonable.

These shoes are very high quality like all Sperry shoes. The insoles have plenty of cushion and support. I own the loafer style and they have lasted 7 years and are still going strong.

High quality leathers inside and out. Resole able durability, I love the pebbled leather look also. I bought them in black and they are GOOD looking shoes. All the way from business dress to weekend casual in this style makes them practical too, they'll get used a lot. Water-treated leather is great for the Puget Sound area. I can't say enough about the Gold Cup line of Sperry's, it's just top-notch stuff and worth a few more bucks.

Good looking shoe & extremely comfortable. I also have the gold cup Billfish. I'm hooked on the Gold Cup series, the shoes are extremely comfortable with soft leather linings!
