AO 2 Eye

These Sperry boat shoes are a wonderful replacement/alternative to the badly/cheaply redesigned-by-private-equity Rockport boat shoes. They are comfortable and unlike the new Rockport design, the heel area drawstring actually works to tighten shoe fit. I’m very pleased with these Sperry shoes.

Just a bit more narrow than desired. Looks good.

Durable and easy to wear all summer. True to size.

Pics: 1- Shoes in natural light, you can't see the red at all. 2- Damage to my right foot from wearing the shoe for a few hours in 2023. 3- The shoes 2 years later in 2025, you can see the red in this light. Pros: Look good, comfortable enough. Can dress up or down. Very durable as I've had them two years and they are doing great (though, they also are very slow to break in....) Cons: These seem too tight near the toes - or at least on mine the right one is always pressing in against the base of my big toe. Picture 2 shows that it actually cut in to my foot to the point of blood after wearing a few hours. 2 years later it's broken in enough that it only leaves my foot a little red there after hours. The shoes fit fine and are easy to take on and off so it's not like I bought them too small. Plus my left foot is perfectly fine (I'm assuming my feet are slightly different sizes, not the shoes) Things to consider: I really liked the shoes having a slightly red color to them, unfortunately that color is almost completely missing from the actual product. You can see it in perfect lighting and that's about it. In my picture with more natural light you can't see the color at all, but the yellowish light lets you see it. Ultimately I like these shoes and would buy them again if they ever wore out... I'd just order a larger size.

This is the third pair we've bought for my husband as they're worn out over time. He loves the style and flexibility of outfit pairing with these. First pair was size 14, they were big and stretched too much. Second pair was 13, closer to a better fit but ended up stretching too much again. This time I bought him a size 12 W. They are snug indeed but he plans to follow the break-in instructions to mould them to his feet. Hopefully these are the right size so they're not some flippy floppy over time

Confortable and quality as expected from sperry's

I have been wearing Sperry A/Os for probably 15 years now. My previous pair lasted me 7 years and treated me very well but I had to trash them as the soles of the shoe completely fell apart. Although the leather was perfectly suitable to be resoled, Sperry doesn't offer their soles to resole boat shoes, which is painful and disheartening as the leather after 7 years was incredibly well formed and broken into my feet, super comfortable. I bought a new pair here and wow these are not the same shoe that I loved and used for nearly a decade. The sizing is off, I ordered a size smaller than my last pair but these somehow feel bigger than my last. The leather quality is completely awful compared to before. The coloring of the Sahara is totally different, way lighter and much less flattering than even the images on here. They wholly feel like a cheap overstock shoe from Marshalls or TJ Maxx. I'll be returning these. It's a sad day to see such an icon of Americana fall so far and so suddenly, especially when its the original boat shoe. I'll have to take my business elsewhere for the quality I crave from what Sperry used to be.

Very nice. A little lighter in color than expected. But husband really likes them. Good value! Would buy again.
