Review on Sperry Washed Striper White Salt Washed Men's Shoes and Fashion Sneakers by David Lusk

Revainrating 3 out of 5

The quality isn't consistent, but they're comfortable and I threw away the laces right away!

I love these shoes - I threw away the laces before putting them on! The shoes slide great and don't worry about the outsole - these are full grip boat shoes with no hard spots. Unfortunately, some Sperry models have a half-grip sole and a semi-glide sole - they're good! They don't last that long - maybe 1/2 year before puncture occurs in the sole - but they have a good boat sole and the spandex keeps them in place. good without laces. I've been ordering these for years and sometimes the same size hurts my toe and never relaxes so they get little or no use. They don't last long unless you use ShoeGloo or something similar to make the soles last longer. They don't last 6 months of regular use without a hole forming in the sole or something falling apart. They're a treat of sorts - when they fit, they look great and feel comfortable. In general, the Sperry brand is an inexpensive brand with a premium appearance. Unfortunately, they used to be a big brand. I would never recommend them, but I continue to wear them - I think partly because I know what not to buy from them (fake rubber soles that just have rubber marks on them, and mostly very slippery other surfaces).

Pros
  • Nice
Cons
  • Good but not great
