Gold Cup - Traditional top-sider fit. Soft, shaping and durable. The best damn shoes in the world! My feet have gotten a bit wider with age so I now go with a roomy fit. So cool, right out of the box! Each pair lasts me over 7 years, and I make beach shoes out of old, worn shoes that last over 7 years. Gold Cup is 2 times more expensive than a normal cup, but lasts 5 times longer. and with an excellent fit.
