Still the Best - I have been wearing this same shoe since 1970, and it is still the best around...OK, this is not the ONLY shoe I wear, but during the summer at the beach, it cannot be beat for comfort and durability.

Fine shoe. I wanted a casual summer shoe to wear without socks and this does the trick. It's also a bit nostalgic since it's the same shoe for the same purpose I had in high school and college 25 years ago.

Good deal - great service! Good shoes, the third pair of my life. I get 5-10 years from a pair of these. Once they're broken in, there's nothing more comfortable. Service was great - better than expected.

Comfort at its best! I bought these shoes to replace my husbands 10 tear old Top-Siders!!! He wears shoes and does not go barefoot! He wears the Top-Siders at night after taking off his work shoes to be comfortable!!! He says these already feel worn in and are extremely comfortable! Zappos delivered so quickly that I was surprised! We will order again as my daughters and I are shoe-a-holics! Thank you!

It is with trepidation that I order shoes for my husband online being that he has these unusually wide "Fred Flintstone" feet. It seems that Birkenstocks (which are very wide) seem to work best but Birkenstocks wouldn't fly in his work world. Right out of the box, he put these babies on and wore them for two weeks. He raved about how comfortable they felt. When he is ready for another pair, I will definitely buy this brand again. Zappos will be the place I purchase them as I do every pair of shoes I now own (and I own ALOT). ZAPPOS is always a wonderful shopping experience and when I talk to customer service it is always a pleasure. What a great business you have-TOP NOTCH! The return policy rocks and you always seem to have what my family wants. My neighbors joke with me when the UPS man arrives because he always has boxes from Zappos. Both the UPS man and Zappos must think our household is crazy...We are crazy and yet look great because we are all decked out in shoes from Zappos!

Not very authentic - These Sperry Authentic Top-Sider Originals are knock-offs of what I remember the Original to be. The stitching is crude, the inside unfinished and unlined. They more resemble a cheap moccasin than an authentic boat shoe. However, they are fairly comfortable and fit my narrow foot well. The Zappos service was excellent, as usual.
Other shoes recommended by reviewer: If you can find, Dexter made in USA boat shoes.

Summer Comfort - I had a pair of Top-Sider's since I was a kid and that's been a few years. Slip them on, enjoy the comfort and go. You don't even have to wear socks. They are great around water or the beach. Was nice being able to buy the original from you and not go to the mall. Loved the fast and actuate service and you even upgraded the shipping method at no cost to me. I will be buying another new pair soon (diff. color). Thanks for making life easy! Dennis
