    Is upgrading to the Gold Cup worth the price difference? How much better are they really? The gold cups run half a size smaller and keep in mind that they can be found on sale from time to time. Both are made overseas

    The Gold Cup is softer and feel more comfortable, but it just can't keep the form sturdy (wide feet). About the sizing, the material on the GC stretch overtime, I'm wide feet, 12Us on running shoes, 11.5us on converse, Im currently having 12us Gold Cup but it loosen up, would def down a half size.

      They're both really nice; consider the gold cup for nicer outings, and the regular for more daily wear and that you can occasionally beat up 💥

    hi, just my opinion but you should condition more, especially if you don't live somewhere humid. a good deep conditioning every month produces the best results for me and i live in quite humid area (north fl).
    if you do use them as actual boat shoes, make sure you're using conditioner rich in waxes or applying waxes yourself through creams or hard polishes (hard polishes i personally do not recommend for boat shoes due to their inherently casual nature)

    To make the other shoes more comfortable, you can buy thin insoles. That's what I do.

      @@Striker50_ Since I am not wearing socks with my Sperry, the thin insoles (full and not the 3/4 ones) are just right. If you wear socks, then it will be a bit tight.
      So far, they never slipped out when I used them. Of course, they should fit well inside your shoes so they won't slip out. Some insoles can be cut to fit your foot/shoe size and there are lines as guide where to cut. Some also have adhesive at the back.
      There are insoles for those with flat feet and they are not that thin (so don't choose those). There are many kinds of thin insoles especially ones that absorb sweat and are washable.
      When it comes to water, the ones made of gel will do fine. However, the washable foam ones can also get wet but then, you do need to wash them afterwards to avoid bacterial growth.

      Regularly moisturizing can help but also factor in that if you place inserts that can be a good option when they're being stored. I've seen people iron the creases out with a wet towel but I don't know how permanent of an option that is

    Ahhhh, but are the good on deck, you know, of a boat?! How you test them: Put your hand inside the shoe, push the sole against a strong piece of glass and try to slide it on the glass. Good deck shoes won't slide easily and are safer on a boat. Don't trust a cubicle cowboy with your life!

    I had my Sperry traditional for over like 11 years now... these things are going strong...They do smell bad, and they are very dirty so I don't wear them out in public.. I only wear them when I do like yard work, but I'm telling you. you'll never find shoes that last this long..

    • @Striker50_
      @Striker50_  Рік тому

      Agreed! I think the traditionals are way more of a work horse because of the interior. If you DIDN'T know, Costco is selling the traditional Sahara leather sperrys like in this video for $60! It's on their online site only. They had them for $50 for about 2 weeks with a discount

      @@sean3162 lol you're not going to believe it but I still haven't worn the gum colored ones. They're still in the box. I wear the two-tone ones to the beach and they're great. The Gold cups are slightly more comfortable but run a little smaller in size. The Gold cups will take a little longer to stretch because the leather is thicker. But I have worn the standard sperrys for years and they are incredible. I'm sure if someone is heavier these aren't the most comfortable shoes because they don't have the most support. For average people though these are incredible. Wouldn't recommend walking around all day in them but it can definitely be done
