Perfect Boat Shoe, March 8, 2010
This review is from: Eastland Women's Solstice (Apparel)
I absolutely love these shoes. I just purchased my second pair since my first pair is getting a little old now. I have the tan boat shoes- they are so comfortable and look great (I pretty much wear them everywhere and I've never had problems with them). I tried on the Sperry boat shoes and they just didn't compare to these. The only thing I would say is that they run a little bit big; I usually wear a 9, but for these shoes I have an 8.5. Basically, I would definitely recommend this shoe to anyone!

Boat shoes, October 1, 2010
I really wanted a pair of boat shoes (like Sperry's), because I'd heard they were really comfortable, but I didn't want to spend a whole lot of money on them. These were the cheapest ones I could find, but I was kind of hesitant about the whole off-brand Sperry's thing, because I thought they might not be AS comfortable. I considered just buying the more expensive brand, but my boyfriend talked me into taking a chance on these.
They arrived within the right time frame, they fit perfectly, and they were/are very comfortable! However, like all shoes, they did need to be broken in; the backs of the shoes ended up leaving really painful cuts on my ankles, but I put Band-Aids over them and kept wearing them, and after about a week they were broken in completely (though I had to continue wearing the bandages another week or so because of the cuts). The inside of the shoe is extremely comfortable because the cushion rises to support the arch of the foot, which is wonderful. The only other complaint I have is that they seem to get dirty really easily. I had only been wearing them a week and the backs of the shoes were grayish. However, I think it's because I got them in such a light color (I ordered tan), but regardless, they're not too hard to clean.
Overall, I'd recommend them. They're really comfy and I hardly ever wear any other shoes now, and I'm considering buying another pair in the darker brown color.

I purchased these shoes as a Christmas gift for my wife. She absolutely loves them and thanks to Amazon.com I was able to purchase them for much less than retail.
