Ordered this for my son. He really liked the shoe shoe. Just too big.

The sizing is perfect, I have added another stylish,& comfortable shoe to my collection. With the removable foot bed, an orthotic easily provides the support I need.

Hubby likes these Rockports. They're not very squishy but are very comfortable. They don't seem to have the "center roundness" that other Rockports had. Good stable, lightweight shoe.

Great shoe for the price. It looks nice and is waterproof. Due to an old ankle injury, I need a rubber sole to limit impact on hard surfaces. This shoe provides that and is comfortable. One downside is that the shoe doesn't breath as well as some of my more expensive shoes - a small compromise for an otherwise fine shoe, especially for the price.

The width on these Rockports seem about the same as the Dockers Garfield I tried on. I really like these cause the toe area seems to be a perfect middle ground between the more narrow, pointy style, and the squarish-toe style. - I originally ordered the 'Florsheim Midtown Cap Toe Oxford' (pointy toe) and it fit my somewhat wider foot best as a 14wide (3E). I decided to get these Rockports instead cause they seemed a little stronger. I got the 14wide (EE), but they were too wide, as my foot was sliding around too much. I ordered the 14 M(D) and now they fit. Maby it's cause the toe is a tad wider in these then the Florsheims.

Generally ok but less comfortable than I remember other Rockports in the past. Would be fine if I didn’t walk-commute and less steps in them/day.

Great shoes, lasted over a year of nearly daily uses. Only complaint was that it took me 3 returns to get to the correct size. I normally wear a 10.5 and ended up being comfortable with a 9 EE in these shoes.

I am very hard to fit, or if shoes do fit they do not feel comfortable. So far, so good with these shoes.

waterproofing extended to laces which results in them frequently coming untied, using a double knot sort of defeats purpose of having elegant styling

Good shoe. Good fit. But shine doesn't keep as well as other shoes.

Fit was ok. Color was off, much lighter than listed. Right shoe was lighter in color than left shoe.

The fit was fantastic. Was very disappointed when there were black spots on one after wearing them in the rain. When I tried to clean and polish it, the whole shoe looked like a big blackish smudge. Inexpensive does not have to mean cheap.

I don't understand why they would stamp "hydro shield waterproof" on the outside facing side of the shoe. These are clearly meant as dress shoes, but that stamp makes them super tacky. Really bad design in that, Rockport.

Too Large, and I also found the side too high, hitting my ankle bone. Otherwise, they are very attractive and I'm sorry I could not keep them.

I bought the shoes for casual wear. They look good and provide enough room for my foot to feel comfortable. The insole is very thin and takes away from the wear of the shoe. After walking or standing for longer than 12-15 minutes, your feet feel tired because of the lack of cushioning. I would recommend this shoe to friends with a caution. I would warn them about the very thin insole.

Fit and finish is awesome as I always like Rockports. But althought they are slip resistant they are actually very slippery. I've already worn them to work or I would have returned them. I work in the restaurant business and we have the typical red tile in our kitchens and these shoes dont grip very well

Side comes up too far and digs into ankle. Would return if I hadn't worn them all day at work.

Horrible finish! Dull and plastic-like. Polish seems to float on the material and does not buff to a higher gloss. Fit is Rockport perfect - like a glove.

I should have known something was up when the price range was like $55 to $110. This shoe was likely some form of manufacturer error and that is why it was sold here on the low end scale. I should have sent it back when the material started to come off the side of the shoe. I didn't because it was in a location where my pant leg would cover it. Now I notice that the area of the tongue of the shoe is, where the laces are, looks horrible. Very scratched up and again, the material on the tongue is EASILY coming off. I know I wear my shoes hard, but I've only had these for a little over a month. This should not be happening. Straight garbage. I've typically done well with Rockport, but I will never get these shoes again and Rockport has maybe one more time with me before I kick them to the curb.
