Though we are always trying work new brands into our boatshoe rotation, it seems that no matter how hard we try we always end up going back to our tried and true Sperry Top-Sider A/O’s.  At last count we had five pairs in regular rotation, and there is about to be a sixth.  We just need to decide which pair of Gold Cup A/O’s we like best.

For those not familiar, Gold Cup is Sperry’s premium line.  While some of the silhouettes in the collection aren’t quite our cup of tea, the Gold Cup A/O Boatshoes are definitely calling our name.  Featuring the same look as our trusty A/O’s, the Gold Cup boatshoes feature premium materials and some extra cushioning for those long Summer days that turn into late Summer nights.  Available in seven different colorways, there is definitely a pair of Gold Cup A/O Boatshoes for every collection.  We’re looking to add a little but of blue to our rotation, so our first pair of Gold Cups is going to be either the Navy/Light Blue/Grey or the Blue/Navy.  To be honest, we’re completely on fence here and would love some input.  What do y’all think, top or bottom?
