"THESE ARE INCREDIBLE! I love these shoes. They are SO comfy, and very durable. I wish I had discovered them years and years ago! These are my first pair of Sperry Top-Siders, but I guarantee they won't be my last! I did read the reviews, and decided to order a little smaller. I am usually a 8 1/2 - 9 but I ordered a size 8 and they are still a little loose, but a tightening of the strings fixed any sliding around. Bottom line, stop reading the reviews and buy them already! Your feet (and your wardrobe) will thank you!"
