Review: Great shoe great price compared to shoe stores - Great product very comfortable shoe. This is my second pair. They get a lot of compliments when I go out with my wife.
Review: Fits small, but very comfortable for general use and very hardy. - First of all, I have owned several of this Billfish model over the years, as well as several other Sperry boat shoes. I use them primarily for walking, lots of walking, at the Jersey shore, in Florida and in winter in Canada. Hiking on pavement, sand, gravel trails, you name it. I weigh over 300 pounds and am hard on shoes. I read reviews from other people here and want to makes sure that readers recognize that it is the Billfish 3-Eye Boat Shoe that I am reviewing here, not the ultralight version, not the classic boat shoe with minimal sole and leather laces. 1) The Fit. I have experimented over the years with different sizes. I have three closets full of shoes, and they are reliably size 11D. Except for the Sperrys. They come small. This is not only my experience, this reflects the experience of many friends who have them. On the other hand the leather uppers stretch with use. For example, I bought from desertcart size "11.5 M". The sizing information provided by desertcart was confusing, but I think this size marking printed on the tongue corresponded to 11.5D. It fits like a glove. Literally. I have to keep my toenails trimmed if I expect to wear them, and they need a little bit of stretching for my toes, but they will be fine. They are exactly the same size as my last pair, suitable for bare feet. If I have any sock beyond a bare thin one the shoes are uncomfortable - they might get better with time, but right now they are for bare feet only. So I decided to order another size. desertcart did not have a selection in stock, so I found another site that sold me a pair that was listed as "11.5E", but "11.5W" is what is printed on the tongue (W means Wide in Sperry speak). They are more comfortable, and will be the ones I will go to when I wear socks. I was tempted to order the 12 D model, thinking that the 12 size in that width might have the width of the 11.5W, but I am glad I did not. My advice would be to get three different sizes in under the desertcart "try them on" program. That is assuming that they have the size variations you want. They do stretch, but they should not be painful when you first wear them. 2) The Design. I settled on the Billfish 3-Eye because I wanted something more versatile than the classic boat shoe. I like the cushioned sole - when I switch to a classic boat shoe with a quarter inch rubber sole I really miss the pleasant feeling of these. I like the ventilation on the sides, as my feet get hot ( I even like the ventilation in the winter). I like the padded tongue - some shoes can hurt me on the top of the foot after extended walking. The laces seem indestructible - not like the leather laces on the classic boat shoes that look great but are always untying or breaking. As far as "arch support" goes, my feet are fairly flat, and I don't find shoes that give arch support so comfortable. I do a lot of walking in them and they are comfortable for me. Probably the support they give is minimal, but beyond the nonexistent support of the classic Sperry boat shoe. 3) Quality. The shoes I bought through desertcart are made in the Dominican Republic, the ones I bought elsewhere are made in Vietnam. The construction is the same, although the Dominican ones have a very slight color variation in portions of the leather - only can see it close up in good light. These shoes have the "glued on" soles, not the sewn on soles of the classic boat shoe. Some reviewers have said that the soles separated from the uppers early on. I have had shoes that have done that, but never with any of the Sperry Billfish I have owned and used over the years. In fact they have held up extremely well - by held up, I mean I have worn them until the material in the heel area has worn away, exposing the foot bed, and then eventually that wearing through and exposing my heel to the payment. I walk a lot and am hard on shoes. Sometimes if I am lazy I will knock down the backs and wear them as slippers to go out and get the mail - easy to slip on, uncomfortable, but the shoes survive without a sign of distress. So in conclusion, make sure this is the model you want, choose the right size for you, and you will not be disappointed. If it falls apart unexpectedly (something that has never happened to me with the Billfish) complain often and hard, even if it is beyond any return period. That is the only way companies can learn if something they are using or doing has to be improved.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I noticed in the reviews that the stitching in the shoe is falling apart. Has that occurred a lot?Also i wear a 10 and what is the other sizes listed?**
A: I have been wearing the Sperry Billfish for 20+ years. I literally wear them every day. I keep 3 pairs going: 1 clean and new pair for going out casual 2nd or for knocking around the house and working on hobbies 3rd pr a bit worn out and they get used for yard work and such. At some point every couple years, l order a new pair and discard the worn out yard shoes because they have holes in them and look pretty ratty. They are my base shoe and you are more likely to see me in them than not. I have never had any quality issues like stitching coming undone or shoe laces wearing out. They are meant to be tied so you can just slip them on - not tie them everytime you put them on. Have never had the laces break before the shoe is shot. They are excellent shoes. Bill (as in Billfish).

**Q: which models are good for winter usage**
A: I dont understand why people bother to answer questions with "I dont know". The only thing worse is people who answer INCORRECTLY!!  By "winter usage" I've got to assume you're talking about "cold".  Although I've never owned a pair. I see that the make these with wool uppers.  From my mountaineering experience, I know wool was the material of choice for the cold long before synthetic fabrics were invented.  There are two properties that make wool a great material for winter. 1 is that well will retain somewhere around 80 - 90 % of its thermal properties even when wet.  The other us that wool doesn't burn. It may smolder a bit, but it wont ignite.  Modern day synthetics like polar fleece are close to well in thermal properties when wet, but it will melt, idle not ignite with fire.  So if recommend the will shoes for winter.  I'd have to guess that's why they made them in the first place.  I also wouldn't be surprised if wool doesn't have some other properties to it that make it more durable le in a salt water environment, but that's oure speculation on my part that I haven't looked into yet.

**Q: socks or no? Are they good either way?**
A: I wear socks but they do breath pretty good. You're fine either way.

**Q: regarding the width:  what is the difference between the C/D and the D(M)?**
A: I know M is for medium width. The other is either wide or narrow.
