Customer Reviews Sperry Gold Cup Boat

These are beautiful shoes. They run a half size to large if you are going to wear them without socks. The deer skin lining is a serious luxury, and significantly improves the comfort with out socks. May be too nice for boating. The gold islets have a particular look that you might either like or dislike...it might send a message "that you paid this much for boat shoes" so if you don't want to send that message then these might not be the shoes for you. I put the quality and feel of these shoes as world class, equal to or better than the finest shoes in the world.

This is a very attractive dress Sperry. I got these for my husband for our dressy, yet casual events. We both really like them.

I have two pairs of this shoe. I find them very comfortable. They are of excellent quality. I have had Mephistos boat shoe for years but like the Sperry shoes better.

High quality, very comfortable with great feeling of support! For me they work best without socks. Also a good looking boat shoe.

Great shoes. Well built with great support. Inside leather is so soft I wear barefoot all the time. These shoes are handsome and distinguished and will hold up to daily use.

I could not believe that boat shoes would be this expensive. I bought them anyway based on the description and the other reviews. These really are some of the most comfortable shoes I have ever owned. They are completely lined with deer skin leather, which is like butter, and the foot beds are memory foam. The whole shoe is beautifully constructed. It's a modernized, more comfortable, more supportive and better made version of the classic boat shoe but it doesn't lose the classic look I wanted.

I have purchased this shoe several times. They are high quality, very comfortable, and look great! They stand up well to almost daily wear. The eyelets started popping out of the leather after 2 months on my last pair, but Zappos replaced them immediately.

I bought these shoes for casual wear. Removing them from the box, they are visually pleasing. Putting them on you immediately feel the quality that makes these shoes as expensive as they are. The best part of this purchase for me though was the time these shoes have lasted. I bought mine in 2010, and to this day, Spring 2014, they are still my go to shoe. They have lasted incredibly well, and I wear them daily. The tread is still there, the finish is still the same and the insole has held up amazingly well. I wear these without socks most of the time and have no discomfort. This is the only boat shoe I have been able to do this with. I have worn this style since the '80s and these are by far the best. It's worth spending more for a shoe that feels and lasts as these do. If this is your first purchase from Zappos, you can expect first class customer service and quick delivery. Highly recommended!

Greetings, we got the Sperry gold boat on black today and this gold Sperry series is worth every penny. The best 5 star shoe money can buy. Excellent.

Just received the shoes and the fit like a glove, they look great, very good buy, will always return to Zappos.

Worth every penny! Super comfortable with or with out socks. First rate quality. A classic boat shoe. Found these shoes run about a 1/2 size big. I normally wear a 11.5 but returned for an 11. Great shoe for dress casual or casual.
