I was picking shoes to wear as a groomsman at a wedding, and narrowed it down to these Rockport Style + Purpose and a somewhat similar pair of Cole Haan wingtips. The Cole Haan were a tiny bit fancier, and had slightly better finishing and workmanship. I packed both pairs in my suitcase, and made it a game-day decision. Having the two pairs of shoes side-by-side, I decided that the Rockports were certainly fancy enough for a wedding, and feel like they are built to last years. Plus I really liked the perforated design on the toe. The thing that put these shoes on my feet for the big day is that they're super comfortable for a dress shoe -- well cushioned, and flexible soles for all the standing, walking, and dancing that was to come over the evening. At the end of the day, my feet were happy in these Rockports -- and I'd gotten plenty of compliments for my shoe game from other guests at the wedding. I'm very happy with these shoes, and highly recommend them for someone looking for dressy oxfords/wingtips. Plus, the price is great too!

I have very narrow feet and usually wear size US 11-1/2 in athletic or work shoes to get the recommended extra thumb's width in length. I knew these would be too wide for me at that size, but because shoe width decreases proportionally with length and I didn't need the extra toe room for dress shoes, I ordered these in 10.5M. When I first walked in them the length was fine but my heels would slip up slightly with each step. I loved the look of these shoes and wanted to keep them so found an easy remedy. You can buy stick-on felt tongue pads at drugstores or shoe stores and that did the trick. Now they fit perfectly. The only nitpick was the slick laces tended to come loose. That was fixed by different tying so the bow ends up perpendicular to the foot. Google it to find out how. Anyway, these are great shoes. They are very dressy, well made, and still look good after more than a year.

Great shoe. This is my second pair. My first pair had the rubber ring around the heel come off similarly to other reviewers. However, the shoe is so comfortable and I use 3 to 5 times a week that I ordered another pair hoping that the same thing will not happen again.

Really satisfied with this purchase. I was going nuts trying to find a good new dress shoe for an upcoming wedding: I wanted something in a dark brown color, elegant but not too douchey, that would offer great comfort and allow me to break it down properly on the dance floor. I bought three other pairs of shoes and had to return them all due to weird sizing etc-which Zappos made easy per usual, just the freakin best ever-and then settled on these. I was hesitant, as I'd been toying with J&M/CH/KC...and Rockports seemed like...Rockports? Ordered the Dark Brown, pretty wary because they don't look fab in the photo, but I was pressed for time and had to have something in this color. Of course Zappos gets them to me the next day, and the are SLAMMIN. These puppies are way sexier than they look on the site, really handsome shoes, and comfy AF. They are very true to size and appear to be well made. They're simultaneously sharp as hell and understated. Seriously, looking at em sitting there right now and I'm like Mmm-MMMM! Thanks Zappos!

The comfort was really good but a year after my purchase, like some other reviewers, the heel is starting to peel off in strips. I'm really disappointed in this quality problem.

The fit is okay. I'm always between a 12 and 13 depending on the manufacturer. These were 12's. I'm 6'4" 230 lbs., and I wear 'em all day for class. This semester, I'm lecturing for 75 minutes at a pop and these shoes are fine. No aches or pains. I will say the width seems a tad narrower than the cap-toe version of this shoe, but overall I'm quite pleased with these. i bought the "tan" version.

Quality is nice, but even purchased as a W this shoe is too thin to put on my foot. Other wide shoes are fine. Must be the style of shoe.

I bought five pairs of Oxfords for my husband to wear... in Oxford. These were his first choice! They were pretty wearable from the get go. Short break in period of a few days.

These shoes fit well and are true to size. I initially ordered the wide version, because my feet are usually wide, but those were way too wide. These fit me perfectly. They’re comfortable enough that they should get me through medical school and beyond!

Finally a VERY comfortable dress shoe! I had foot surgery and have not been able to wear any normal shoes. I had a formal wedding to attend and was concerned about my feet. I ordered these and danced all night with no issues!!

My son needs to wear an oxford style with his school uniform. I purchased this Rockport in the past and it was perfect in every way, but in an effort to save money, I bought a less expensive brand. Bad idea. He could tell the difference and they didn't hold up as well. We are back to Rockports!

I normally wear a size 15 but in the Rockports, I sized down to a 14. These are a great buy. They are nice looking shoes and they feel great. an added bonus to buying from Zappos is the fact I had to return the first pair didnt cost me anything but a phone call. You have to love Zappos.

Great rubbered, non-slip sole--not like so many dress shoes. Super comfortable for a wingtip. Happy with the rich tan color. All around attractive, comfortable dress shoe that can be walked in for longer distances, not just to and from the car.

I love Rockports in general. And these are no exception; light weight and comfortable. The shoes have rubber sole, which is exactly Rockport style. I bought wide width for my feet and they fit exactly right. Soft top leather and soft insoles make my walk comfortable and bouncy. Classic oxford wing tip look is too exactly what I was looking for to wear to the office.
