Bought this for my hubby. He never finds comfortable work shoes. He is a Physician and walks all day long in the hospital. This buy was a success. Will buy them in all colors available. This will be his shoes for life!

I got exactly what I was expecting with these shoes. Dress shoes that feel like a cross between a sneaker and slipper when you walk. These are not high quality shoes nor are they durable but they do serve a purpose. That is to make wearing dress shoes somewhat more comfortable when the time calls for it. I both the black and cordovan colors. The leather is shiny as in just polished look. These are great for traveling due to being light weight. I only wish they were more durable and priced about $20 less. DeerStag makes a similar product but it is even less durable than these.

Comfortable wingtips. Nice looking except the toe is a little too boxy (squared off) for my taste. The fit is very good.

Jumped on their sale offer. Have purchased several of these same in the past. Consider them the best overall wingtip on the market for price and quality. The toes are beautifully proportioned -- not pointed as in many more expensive wingtips.

Fantastic arch support, great style and fit. A little hard on the heels and balls of the feet, as the insole is a little hard. I recommend a basic gel insole.

Let me start by saying that buying shoes for my husband is very difficult (especially dress shoes). He has very wide feet with high insteps. He needed dress shoes for our son's upcoming wedding and I thought I would try ordering these shoes for him in an extra wide (something near impossible to find in brick and mortar stores). Shoes came in and fit him really well. He liked the quality of the leather and the arch support. Thank you Zappos for making this experience so much easier. I am especially grateful for your generous and easy return policy. I have been shoe shopping with Zappos for a number of years now and plan on continuing for a long time to come. Again..."thank you".

I prefer Rockport shoes over any other that Ive worn over the 40 yrs in reatail constantly walking throught the day sometime up to 12hrs a day. These shoes can be worn new out of the box with no worry of having to break them in. The only complaint I have is the laces will only last a few weeks before I have to replace them. I now keep extra laces on hand knowing that the ones they come with will not last. Great shoes...terrible laces.

These shoes look great, feel good and have a solid sole, which is a shame, because their exterior broke down significantly after only 8 DAYS of wearing them. 8 DAYS. This was likely due to the shoe's "Hydro Shield Waterproof" exterior. This happened to both the left and right shoes in the same places, on the outside heel area and interior tongue area. I work in an office area and do some moderate walking, but nothing which should have caused this to happen. Very disappointing.

These shoes are very comfortable on first wearing. I bought them for a trip to Paris where I will be walking a lot and wanted something dressy enough for evening wear. These fit the bill and I will see if they come in brown in which case they will see me through, comfortably and will look good as well.

Excellent fit and overall look. They did have a strong chemical smell initially. I let them air out for a few days an it has dissipated.

I bought these as a gift for my husband's birthday. He absolutely loves them. He has a wide foot (4EE) and the shoes are very comfortable! He likes the fit and the style. No complaints!

Bought these shoes for myself hoping to match an earlier Rockport that I had worn that was very comfortable. I am very happy with these shoes. One important comfort criteria for me is to have the right heal design for the shoe such that the top of the shoe heal does not dig into my foot. On these shoes there is a rim of soft cushion material in the upper heal to minimize heal slippage but provide comfort. Also, I thought I was taking a chance buying shoes marketed as waterproof. Was not sure what that meant. The shoe appears just like any other quality leather dress shoe I have ever worn, but apparently more “waterproof”. Has a rubber sole which adds to comfort. So I ended up buying a second pair. Shipping was fast and flawless.

The shoes felt great and were super comfortable. The size was perfect which is hard for me to find at a size 16E. Unfortunately, after just 4 days of wearing them the front sole and shoe started to separate (see photo). I’ll either have to re-glue them or return them. I really like the shoes so I don’t want to return them if I don’t have to. We’ll see. Other than that issue, the shoes are great.

The shoes are fine. Well made and good deal for the price. I have to buy wide shoes so I was happy to be able to get a shoe that fits me at this price.

Amazing shoes! I have narrow feet; these fit great. This is my 2nd pair of Rockports and they are both amazing. If you have narrow feet; these are your shoes.

I have worn them twice. The second time, I was on my feet two straight hours. They felt great. Just like the old Rockports they replaced.

Very comfortable, light weight, extremely padded footbed for those with Plantar fasciitis. Great that this shoe comes in extra wide. Like the traditional wingtip style for dressy occasions.
