These shoes in Medium width are a bit too narrow and uncomfortable. My sons prefer the Wide fit for these shoes, even though they do not typically wear a Wide in other shoes. They look nice with their school u inform, but I typically have to buy them 3 or 4 pair a year. They are not very durable.

These were very narrow and the shoelaces were short. It's hard to get a full tie on the shoe. My son was unhappy with them.

Cute shoe but if your child cannot tie his own shoe laces, this is not the shoe to get. The shoe laces come undone a lot!

My son always wears a wide and this shoe in wide was very tight on his foot.

Uniform shoes for us so not much to get excited about. They are well made and last well.

Thought this was the perfect shoe for my son's school uniform, however, the laces kept coming undone.
Definitely a problem for a young active boy.

My son is a size 12. I ordered a size 12 and 12.5 in this shoe because people said that they run small. Well they ran about a half size larger for us! Thank goodness for Zappos free returns!

The photos give the impression that the stitching is grey/ blue, which it’s not. The stitching is closer to white. We like the shoe but were looking for something in-line with what the photo reflects. We wanted a dressy-sneaker/ boat shoe for the fall. The white stitching makes this more of a summer item.

Really liked these shoes, but they have not held up over time. Probably fine for once in a while wear, but not for school. Only lasted a month and a half before they started falling apart.

We have bought other Sperry Kids shoes. These shoes are very stiff and narrow. My son really does not like them. He said they hurt and are tight in the toes and stiff. He has normal feet and the ones we bought before seem softer and a little wider. We had to return these and get something different. Also the laces are very short and difficult to get a full tie in!

I bought this style because the style I loved had been discontinued. The insole is comfortable but the fit is narrow, even in a wide fit. Within a few months the soles have started breakdown revealing little holes allowing water to get in the shoe. I'm very disappointed with this shoe because it's not the quality I've come to expect from Sperry. Not sure I'll be able to find another 3 eye style quite like what I used to have.

I'm a grown man with a small foot and a very active outdoor marine lifestyle. I have been purchasing your deck shoe for many years but the sole on this shoe has not held up like I have come to expect from Sperry products. Lite and comfortable, but the sole?

My son wears these for his school uniform. When his foot was smaller he wore the big kids gamefish with the Velcro. Hoped these would be the same but not so much. The backs of these are flattened no matter what I do to stand them up. They've stretched out so badly they just fall off his feet at recess or in class. Not much can be done about that since it's real leather. I've tightened the lace around the back daily but it doesn't always help. Other than all that these shoes have held up and look adorable on. My son absolutely loves these shoes. I have to buy a new pair. Wish they had the Velcro ones in bigger sizes.

Started off as THE perfect school uniform shoe to match the navy pants my boys wear. I was told these shoes are sooo comfortable, and they fit both my wide-footed and narrow-footed sons! Also, they kept their appearance with no maintenance. Here's the only problem we experienced, but unfortunately, it's a big one: the surface of the soles wore off within the first month of wearing them, then graduated to disintegrating in certain spots. If it was just my oldest, I wouldn't have even mentioned it, as he is tough all his footwear. But my slender, lightweight third grader too? I think we got a defective batch.These shoes were worn no more than 3 times a week, alternating between loafers and sneakers. Disappointing.

We have had this shoe in the past and it has held up very well. My son wear them everyday with his uniform. One pair got us through the school year. However this pair is not going the distance. The bottom of the soles is worn way down and they have a hole in the top stitching. Disappointed with this shoe.

I bought these shoes as they are required for my child's summer uniform. My daughter has only worn these for eight school (since 9/8/21) days with a 20 minute recess - she has gym once a week that requires sneakers. The brown outer sole of the shoe is already worn out revealing the ivory middle sole. The laces are frayed, therefore the 360 lace is unraveling and it doesn't look like these can be relaced. Really disappointed. I would recommend another style perhaps the Original - all leather and leather lace or a different brand.

This shoe was bought as a required school uniform shoe for a 5th grader. This shoe was used only for during school hours and only 4 days per week. Within 21 days of arrival, the sole of the shoe began to disintegrate. And not just in one spot, but in the front, back and middle of both of the shoes. Based on the way the sole looks, it appears that if this continues, the sole will separate from the side of the shoe and I'm sure my child will have very wet socks the next time it rains. I'm very disappointed. Sperry purports to be this high quality name brand product with a price point to match. Based on the reviews already on this site for this shoe, combined with my personal experience, I would be hard pressed to ever buy Sperry brand products again. If this wasn't a required school shoe, I would not buy this product, nor would I recommend it to anyone I know. The only pro of this product is that it fits true to size and is not overly narrow or overly wide.

These shoes will not last longer than a month or two with regular wear. These are my son’s favorite shoe; the first pair began to lose its laces within the first month, then the sole wore off. The second pair has already started to lose the bottom soles. These shoes are stylish, but they are not quality Sperry shoes.
