This a great pair of shoes. My only wish is that they came in the S width. However, pretty easy to compensate with the laces...
Terrific quality of materials, well put together and extremely comfortable.
The added cushioning and deerskin lining make this shoe.

I have worn this very same shoe for about ten years. Wear out one pair and buy a replacement. This shoe has no break-in period. They are a comfortable fit right from the get go. Good looking enough to wear to the office.
Only problem with these and any other two-eyed boat shoe is that the hide laces wear out long before the shoes do. They always seem to break at the eye forcing the making of a lace knot to be able to continue to wear the shoe. Last pair had double lace knots on each shoe before I ordered a new pair. Almost impossible for a non-professional to install a brand new hide lace. Shoe must be made with the lace in place.
I highly recommend this shoe. Expensive, but worth it.

I have been wearing Sperry's for at least 40 years. I went from the traditional original Sperry's to the Billfish models about 8 or so years ago. Unfortunately they tend to rip at the fabric seem on the several pair I owned. This time I stepped up to the Gold Cup ASV and will never look back. Thanks for making such a comfortable and high quality shoe.

Second pair of Gold Cup Topsiders and they didn't disappoint. Well made shoes that are all day comfortable. Very nice workmanship.

My favorite shoe of all time. I always have 3 generations of this shoe. Dress for occasions I want to look nice. Good for everyday use. Garden for around the house on the weekends.
These are always a ltitle stiff especially in the heel, but if you take them to a cobbler they can wear them in for you.
The deer skin lining as promised makes the shoe a joy to wear all day.

and the uppers are made of good quality leather. Extra cushioning on the inside is what sets this shoe apart from other "boat shoes."

Since I bought my first pair 10 years ago I can't stand anything else on my feet. Sadly though I only get 2 years out of a pair. As long as I can get them I will buy them.

The ASV boat shoe is terrific. Comfortable and well made. I only wish there were more ASV styles in a wide shoe. You really cannot go wrong with any of the ASV's or Gold Cup models. BIG FAN!

Very stylish shoes! I was unsure at first because of the high price of this shoes, but once you try them on man...I'm glad I bought this pair. I can't wear my other sperrys top sider anymore. Though this pair will give you a semi-dressy feel for your outfit.

I have worn Sperry boat shoes for years. This was my first pair of Gold Cup Shoes. I am sold, I will never go back! The most comfortable shoe ever. I purchased the wide and it was true to size.

Quality, fit and finish are all superb and shoes can be worn comfortably right out of the box. Very light weight with nice pebble grain surface. Would suggest if you like this shoe to order a second pair right away to put in inventory as styles change, and these might not be available when its time to replace them. Yes, they're that good.

I saw one reviewer say to order a size smaller if you don't plan to wear socks (who would with boat shoes), but everyone else said that they fit true to size. I went ahead and ordered my correct size (15 W) since everyone said they fit true to size. They are slightly too big in length and width without socks. Actually, I feel that the width is probably good, but because they are a little too big, they feel a little wide as well. When I sinch up the laces a little bit, they feel more comfortable, but there is a little bit of a curl effect on the top of the shoe from being squeezed by the laces. Overall it's a very minor thing and I would hate to recommend people to order a size smaller than normal and have them be uncomfortable because they were too small. Use your best judgement on what you are willing to tolerate. Otherwise the quality and comfort are outstanding. Definitely worth the price and now my wife has finally stopped nagging me every time I try to leave the house to go out to dinner wearing my flip-flops.

These are the most comfortable boat shoes ever, I have had Sperrys for the past 30 years and these are the best. The lining is super soft, and the design cannot be topped. Highly recommended, 5 stars!

Get made fun of daily for these shoes, why? Because I wear them on construction sites through mud, and balancing high up on ladders. My old construction boots fell apart after a few weeks, my sperrys have lasted a year and are worn, but highly functional! Still looks great At my local marina or taking the mta subway!!! Goes with anything!

I've owned many other Sperry boating shoes over the years, all worn for both everyday use and "purpose-built" use on my small sailboat.
These top them all in terms of lightness, fit, support and ability to retain their shape and good looks over time. No point in buying anything else.

These are the best! I have 25 pairs of boat shoes, every major brand. Yes, even the ones that cost much more. You can pay more, but you are not going to get better!

I HAVE BEEN WEARING ANOTHER BRAND OF BOAT SHOES FOR MANY YEARS. IT APPEARS THAT THE QUALITY CONTROLS AT THAT COMPANY HAVE DECLINED SO I THOUGHT I WOULD GIVE THESE A TRY. I AM VERY PLEASED WITH THE QUALITY AND THE COMFORT OF THESE SHOES. I WOULD RECOMMEND THEM TO ANYONE WHO WANTS A TOP QUALITY BOAT SHOE.
IN ADDITION, MY WIFE THINKS I LOOK GREAT IN THESE SHOES.

I've been working in and around boats for the past 40 years and without a doubt, the Gold Cup ASV 2-Eye Boat Shoe, is the most comfortable boat shoe I've ever worn. It provides great support and traction. It provides great confidence when you have to perform challenging on-board tasks in rough seas when the decks are awash.
Sperry earns a BRAVO ZULU on this shoe.

I'll begin by addressing the most obvious aspect of this boat shoe, cost. These shoes are expensive! I believe these shoes deliver good value, at least that's my impression after wearing them for a few weeks. They are well made with quality materials and they are extremely comfortable. They also provide above average support for a boat shoe. I haven't worn a boat shoe in years because I had not been able to find a pair that offered adequate support. I would recommend this shoe to anyone seeking a boat shoe provides superior fit and comfort.

This is my second pair. They are the most comfortable shoes I've ever owned. I still wear the first pair as casual wear. The new ones are for dressier wear.

This shoe is as great of a shoe as it looks. It is very stylish, the leather is soft, broken in, and ready for use out of the box. The Deer skin lining is incerdibly comfortable, all I can say is wow. The gold plated aesthetics is also a nice addition. I see no problems with the manufacturing of this shoe, i own a fishing boat service in Florida, which the weather can go from very sunny to windy and rainy out on the water, so far the shoes have endured the Florida weather and life on the boat without any issue. I highly recommend this shoe to anyone, regardless of the purpose, you can't beat the comfort and stylish look of this shoe.
