Really comfortable shoe - My wife did a great job of picking these shoes out for me! They are way more expensive than anything I would have bought, but they are also more comfortable than any business casual shoe I have ever worn. They look good with khakis as well as jeans. Lots of cushioning and excellent arch support.

A year Later... When I bought these shoes I absolutely loved them. To an extent I still do, but I find myself having to replace them already. The uppers and lowers are still in excellent shape, but I've worn through the cheap lining on the inside of the heel. I can't stand the feeling of my sock sliding across the hole in the lining. It’s a shame to have to get rid of these shoes already, but that liner just didn't hold up.

Extremely comfortable - I walk over 8 miles a day on concrete at my job (large factory) - I've tried a lot of shoes over the years and these are the most comfortable I've found. The DMX air cushioning works great! I'll be buying my third pair soon.

Other shoes recommended by reviewer: Anything with DMX cushioning - with air bladders

Comfortable but a little clunky. I have a hard foot to fit, fat feet. But the shoes fit just right. They are very comfortable. The only thing is the shoe is a little clunky.

Perfect shoe - I bought these shoes for my husband to travel in. They are airport security friendly but I was sure they would be difficult to get on and off in a hectic security check line. Apparently, I was wrong. My husband loves these shoes. He had no trouble in the airport security line and says these shoes are super comfortable. They look great on him and the fit is exceptional. He owns other Rockport shoes and feels the same way about all of them.

Other shoes recommended by reviewer: Any Rockport shoe

Rockport Blackville - My husband felt immediate comfort in these shoes when he first tried them on, which is very rare with his narrow feet. The narrow width for these seems true to size. We can never find narrow width shoes for him, so this was a great find. He has worn them to work for the past couple of weeks and says they are comfortable for all day wear. Thank you Zappos for offering narrow widths!

Comfortable should last a long time - The shoes were a bit stiff at first, but after 3 weeks, they are broken in and quite comfortable. I take a narrow width and other Rockports have fit fine. These were a bit loose, but double knotting keeps them firmly in place.

Other shoes recommended by reviewer: Rockport in general.

Rockport Blackville - A great shoe according to my husband. He has a terrible time finding shoes that fit due to his narrow feet. We ordered these in the narrow width and these were immediately comfortable for him.

I bought the tobacco color for casual wear and was impressed enough to buy the black for work. The air-cushion insole is nice and "bouncy", but the up & down motion of the foot within the shoe rubs on the back of the heel. It caused blisters for me over a 2-day period where I did a lot of walking (a Las Vegas trip), but they've been OK for everyday use. This may not be the right shoe for those who walk long distances but it's OK for around the office. I highly recommend them if you do a lot of standing. The air-cushion greatly reduces fatigue.

Uncomfortable in the heel - For some reason my heel feels pinched in the bottom in this shoe. I think I will need gel heel supports for this one. The air bladder feels interesting, but walking around with such large soles makes a lot of noise.

Excellent for any weather and climate - Excellent shoe for many climates. It's been used in El Salvador, rain and humidity, to Washington with rain, snow and humidity, to rainy or dry, hot, Arizona and both the shoe and the feet have survived! Very comfortable but you might need a slightly wider width if you have a high in step. Very durable and great for walking. Not super dressy, but looks great for business and church.

Nice! After hearing so much about how comfortable they were I finally made the effort to find and buy them. Thank goodness for my neighbor who told me about Zappos. All the stores were out of them and I almost opted for something else. Decided to come home and try the online thing, and have been grinning ever since. Can't believe how comfortable the air sole is... Service is awesome.

OUTSTANDING SHOE - I bought this shoe specifically to make walking comfortable in Europe, and it has instantly become by favorite shoe. As a regular dress shoe-in-the-office person, the look seemed a bit clunky at first, but I got over that in about 5 steps. Regular size in regular width accommodated my wide foot perfectly. Way more comfortable than my expensive Mephisto's. Love 'em.

I live in these shoes. These shoes are some of the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn. I bought my first pair in October of 2004 and have just now retired them to my yard shoes. They still have a lot of life in them, but my wife insisted I needed new ones. They fit my wide "duck" feet and keep me walking with a bounce in my step. I don't even wear tennis shoes anymore because these are so great for every day wear. The only time I wear other shoes (other than at work) is if I need my loafers for dressing up or my cowboy boots for dancing. They are worth every penny.

Comfort from the word go - The first things I noticed about the shoe is that it is indeed comfortable from the moment you put it on. The other thing is that it has a very slight tilt backward that reminded me somewhat of the old Earth shoes (showing my age). I like the look, but not as much as the extinct Pro Walker I got several times. At this point, I would probably get the shoe again.

Nice, comfortable, but took a little getting used to... I have chronic foot pain (neuropathy) and need very comfortable shoes. These Rockports are definitely helpful. I can wear them all day with no problem. Because the footbed has a lot of "give," they may feel tight across the balls of your feet when you first put them on. Walk around a bit, and you'll see they're really comfortable. The "Tobacco" color is very sharp for a casual shoe. I bought two pairs.

Good Choice - I ordered these shoes for my husband for his sixtieth birthday and he loves them. He wears them to work everyday. He always goes back to the Rockport shoes. He tried another brand but less than a year later, he needed a new pair of shoes. We will stick with Rockport.

Fits like a dream. I'm very happy with the Rockport Blackville I gave my son for Christmas this year. I was a bit concerned that they weren't going to be wide enough for his foot, but my son told me they fit like a dream. This is a good quality shoe that can be worn with a suit, or with jeans as it's both stylish and causal. It also looks very sturdy and I'm sure it will last a long time. All in all I'm happy to give it five stars.

So Good!! I'm a construction manager and can spend up to 12-15 hours a day on my feet on concrete. These make a massive difference in my ability to "hang in there." Keeps my lower back from screaming at me too. The leather cleans up well also, so you can spiff them up easy enough before business meetings. Rockport makes a pre-oiled sponge for cleaning that I highly recommend. Great shoe!

Hi... I just wanted to say how impressed I am with your service. I ordered sneakers for my daughter, and they came the next day. To have free shipping and also lower prices on the shoes we purchased made all the difference. Thank you. Kathleen
