Does anyone know where I can find these Navy suede Sperry boat shoes in the US? Or even in NYC?

J. Crew I believe. They should have it online.

Also I think you can check random stores, you know around uniqlo on that stretch on broadway. Sometimes you can stumble on some really good deals

[brownboot]

The J. Crew navy boat shoes are loafers and unfortunately are only in leather, not suede. I'll check around SoHo again but I haven't seen the navy suede ones anywhere so far.

[rxtim]

i sorta want that magenta Boo X sperry, yes or no?

I have the burgundy penny loafer from last season, I thought they would be hard to wear with anything but I find myself wearing them pretty often. I get complimented on them fairly often also.

[rxtim]

i was looking at the new loafers for this season too. time to visit opening ceremony soon

Boat shoes during winter, acceptable?

[sunkenshoes]

Check this shit out: been wearing my sperrys like once, just at work, and already the whole toe looks like shit:

It looks like a wrinkled cardboard or something. It's really weird cause the other shoe of this pair doesn't show anything like this at all. The leather feels really thin as well on this spot. Is this probably a manufacturing problem? I don't want to return these if it's something caused by normal wear.

[PandaDenim]

???

I can't see anything.

[sunkenshoes]

Sorry for the cellphone photo, here's some better pictures.

Hope it's clearly visible this time. There's some wrinkles in the front of the shoe, it's really weird. This shoe also feels a lot wider in the front than the other one. I only worn these once, lightly, and the other shoe doesn't show any wear at all.

[sungrak]

the hide they used on the left shoe must have been creased already.

theres nothing you can really do about that except possibly argue for an exchange.

[shimshimhae]

mine are like that.

i thought it was cause i sized down too much

[sunkenshoes]

that's what I was looking for. I love these, but the left shoe looks like crap. Just mailed the seller with some pictures to see if they will exchange them for me.

[sungrak]

just get ndc's man. shape is the best imo, ive beat mine to death and they still look good, and u can usually find for way cheaper than retail.

[PandaDenim]

One of my Sperrys looks like that, but after wearing it a few times it looks natural now.

I dunno, doesn't seem to be that big a deal.

[capa]

where can I pick up these ones on the left? I know they are from Fall but does anyone still have them in stock?

[kazedemon]

Are Sebago Docksides sized the same as Sperry Topsiders?

[computurd]

Navy or brown?

[kaws&effect]

Blue.

[redX]

navy for sure

Forgot that I posted this. Anyways, I returned my pair and it indeed was a factory problem. Got a fresh pair back and been wearing those like over 10 times already. Still no creases like that or whatever. Even the sole looks better than it was on the last pair.
