I ordered these for my 13 year old. After reading the reviews I was unsure what I would be getting. I wore these in High School, so I know the quality Sperry provides. I have to say they are very nice, the leather is softer on this color. She loves them, they are true Sperry brand, no fakes here! Great color goes with everything! She has worn them every day since she got them, and I see no problems with crafmanship! Would highly suggest these to any parent with a growing child, price was right, they came super quick....you just can't go wrong!
