Sperry Men's Salt Washed Striper LL CVO Boat Shoe

Comment

The order I received was labeled as a 10.5E but it wasnt that size. I compared it to three other pairs of shoes that I have and it was considerably smaller (by at least 1/2 inch. I took it to a local cobbler (30 years experience) and he stated it was not a 10.5 E with any stretch of the imagination. The return policy is so strict, as the shoe can never been worn, must be in the same packing and if not there is a huge return fee, and they also reserve the right to not honor returns with a refund. It is a nice looking shoe however, be warned they come very small so the size will not match what is a standard shoe size generally worn by the receiver.

At first these shoes were hard to break in, until I got them wet. Im not using the upper most lace holes, and find them very comfortable, on and off the boat. I can wear these without socks now on a daily basis and I find the removable insole easy to dry, clean of debris, etc.

The fit is nice and they are very comfortable. But there is a big flaw. The brown "leather" bleeds into the white canvas - like, a lot. I bought and returned two previous pairs because of this issue and it seems to be a product defect. I guess itd be a good shoe if you like ugly stained white canvas.

Do NOT buy these shoes. First of all, they are MUCH more susceptible to dirtiness than other types of white shoes. The material/fabric gets dirty extremely easily and it does not wash away well. A pair of white Vans (which I had before these shoes) are much less susceptible to dirtiness. Secondly, these shoes are stiff -- stiffer than most, and when you bend your foot, the shoe often hurts because it is not bendy or flexible enough. As well, the back of one of the shoes dug into my heel and made me bleed. I wish I could get a refund on these -- $60 is a lot to spend on an item that is painful to wear and doesnt look good after a few uses. Big regret.

I have worn Sperrys sneakers for years. They have been terrific. Sadly the two pairs i bought this year to use now in the summer are awful. They are constructed differently with inner seams that cut into the top of my feet making them impossible to wear. Lessoned learned. Dont buy shoes online from Amazon. You have no idea of the quality even if they are the same brand youve used for years.
