I'll start by saying I'm a big guy. 5'10", 300 pounds. I've always been a Sperry fan. Once I break them in, they become my everyday shoes. I wear them to work, to the pool, to the lake, to shop, to church on Sundays, etc "I've had boat shoes from other brands. The Sperry shoes were the most comfortable and they didn't stink after a day at the lake. I've tried many different styles over the years and the fearless double eye-stings have become my favorite. Not a fan of the chunky ones Billfish sole or the original 2 loop flat sole I tried the 2 eye laces, after breaking in the stitching that runs along the ridge to the toe it started to stick out and looked silly I liked the SeaKite all the way to the sole fell off CONS: Only one minus for them They don't make them with a leather insole like they used to anymore I have to buy a leather insole and replace the fabric insole The leather fits t feels better on the foot and also helps fight stink better.
