Review on Sperry Kids Authentic Original Boat Shoe, Size 6 Youth by Dave Hammon

I wear a women's US size 8. I often buy a size 6 for bigger kids if there's a style I prefer. The size is the same and the shoes are often cheaper. I couldn't wear them as the synthetic lacing was sewn directly onto the tongue; This makes it impossible to adjust the width of the upper of the shoe. After cutting the fake loop stitches from the tongue, I was able to adjust the shoe for a custom fit as usual. An inconvenient 10 minute drive to the office, 10 minute break from work and I was in business. I was just really amazed that the shoes aren't adjustable; don't the "big ones" learn how to tie their shoelaces? I was also a bit surprised that the lacing was made of imitation leather; not quite what I expected from Sperry. Overall the shoes are comfortable, light and fit well. I would buy again.
