I had a pair of these in navy blue when I was 12 - I am not 12 now. They look great with jeans and I can't wait to wear them with my capris and ankle pants reliving my youth . . . . . ; ) Need to order a half size up - I read that in another review and it was true because the 8 fits and i am usually a 7.5.

tried different sizes.

i first ordered this sneaker in size 6 as that's what i usually am. they were too tight and i could barely squeeze them on with thin ankle socks. because they were on sale when i ordered them, only a few sizes were available. when i saw the size 7 was available, i decided to try them only to find they were too large and loose. sooo i needed the 6.5 and i waited until they finally appeared!! and yes, the 6.5 was the best fit. as it turns out, the true fit thing told me i was a 6.5 for this shoe. i wear 6.5 for running sneakers, so i guess it made sense...not sure if the sperry brand was off. when i tried breaking them in, i got little blisters right on the bone of my big toe. when i walked and my foot bent, that was the rubbing area and it hurt after a while. hopefully the canvas will soften after a few more wears and the blisters won't happen again. because i love that there's actual arch support!! i do think these sneakers run a little narrow than normal though.

Proswell made but, runs narrow

Growing up sailing, I am a huge Sperry fan. I had high hopes for these sneakers, but they are going back. They look cute and are well-made, but they run very narrow in the toe box. I'm almost always a medium width with plenty of room. With these shoes, I felt a pinch as soon as I stood up.
I found the shoe to have a very narrow opening, I had to STRUGGLE to get my bare foot in. Once I had the shoe on, it suffocated! Tight all around. Perhaps a half-size up could've sold this problem.
