New

Looking to get these Sperry Topsiders broke in so they don't look so new.

Growing up I can remember Dad referring to his shoes and the age of those shoes by what year I was born.

If a good shoe is worth buying it is worth having re-soled in my opinion. There are a couple of tailors in Newark area that will re-sole your dress shoes. I recommend a rubber sole since our snow and rain months take toll on a leather bottom.

I figure my son will look at my worn out shoes someday I can say "well I bought these the year you were born".
