These are nice shoes but they run large so I would check the fit before tailoring verify a purchase. The biggest issue I have is the suede insert on the heel, which emits blue color when the shoe gets wet, be it from sweat or just water. Nice if ending up in blue heels after a day on the boat sucks, and I expected Sperry to take that into account when choosing the material. Worse, the paint will peel off your skin and get on anything you walk on, so be careful.
