Sperry Men's Striper Ii CVO Nautical Sneaker

This shoe looks really nice, but it digs into the back of your heel giving you blisters very quickly. The tip of the heel of the shoe literally feels like its scraping you. The sole is much too soft, which sounds counter-intuitive (wouldn't you want a softer sole?) but it feels like walking on spongy yoga mats instead of a proper shoe. The actual tread is very soft, which I'm sure gives great grip but it wears out fast. I only wore this shoe for 1 day and I count my lucky stars that I was able to return it. Sperry didn't do the proper research on this one.

These shoes/sneakers are nice to look at and I am very impressed at the comfort level. I was careful not to pull the strings (they're leather) so as not to snap them, so I wear them sort of loose. I have high top arches so this works to my advantage. Also, plenty of room for someone with an E width for sure.

These fit and feel great. I was worried about these shoes being too narrow and/or the arch being too flat, but they worked out well. Vans have always been my go to canvas shoes, but I found that as I get older Vans tend to hurt my feet. These shoes were my first attempt at replacing my Vans and I am very happy with the results. I get the canvas sneaker look in shoes that fit my feet well and don't hurt after hours of walking.

I really wanted to like this shoe. I ordered it to wear to a business casual wedding. The fit was fine for the most part. I have decently wide feet, but these shoes didn't feel cramped in the mid-foot or toe box. The style was nice and materials felt premium.The problem is, these shoes rubbed my heels. I wore them with standard quarter length socks and they just weren't comfortable after a couple hours of light walking around a wedding and reception. If they added a bit of padding to the heel, I think I would've been fine. Unfortunately I had to return them. If you don't experience the heel rubbing, then I think you'll enjoy these just fine!

Disagree with some of the reviews about shoe being too heavy. On the contrary these are much lighter than the original Striper CVO sneakers I've bought in the past. Just received them so time will tell how durable they are. I've never been a huge fan of boat shoes but need something dressy casual to wear with shorts in the summer. The leather laces make these a nice dress casual alternative. I might even have to get a second pair in Navy! Great looking shoe.

The soles are very thin and the insole is squeaky and squishy. Very little support in this shoe has led to a lot of foot pain, mainly plantar fasciitis in my left foot. The soles are so unlike the Halyards that I also have that I somewhat doubt I received an authentic product. I have a hard time believing that Sperry could get away with selling such a flimsy, squeaky shoe in a retail store.

Very nice shoes. I’m on the fence regarding the square shoelaces. Also, make sure to wear thick socks because it will dig into your ankles pretty hard.

The length of the shoe is pretty accurate I wear size 10, ordered a size 10 and it fit well except for the width. The width of the shoe is too big which caused it to fold very easily as I walked. I don’t think I would order this particular style again. I have bought the Sperry Bahama II boat sneaker in white and the style fit very well in the boat sneaker , width was perfect for me. Not impressed with this style & fit.
