Break-in time -
Took about 1 week to break in the shoes. I wear a size 7.5 in men’s. Shoes felt about a quarter size LARGER than my foot size. Now, about the service that I received on the phone... if Zappos was an actual store that I could walk into and buy shoes, I would probably never leave the store. Excellent service! Exceeded my expectation.

Comfortable Standing Shoe -
No more lower back pain with this shoe. This is the first shoe I have found that is very comfortable on the feet as well. I do a lot of standing at work which caused lower back pain and achy feet by the end of the day. Not so with these shoes. I am three weeks into these shoes and still look forward to putting them on in the morning. I will buy these again.

Rockport Review -
Bought this for work. They're not quite as comfortable as my Wolverine boots but they weigh about 1/3 less so it's a good trade-off. They wear on the back of my ankle a little bit, hoping that will break-in with time. They run rather large, I normally take a size 13 and had to order these in an 11.5.

For the man not liking dress shoes, these I like.
I'm not a dress up type, but this shoe fits well out of the box, looks good and appears to be of quality construction. The only thing I don't like is the "combat boot" look of the deep-ribbed sole, but I quickly got over that.

A good brown shoe -
Fit great right off the bat! Don't think there'll be a need for pads or anything. Only complaint is that the leather around the foot opening is a little stiff and will take some break in time.

I am a big guy, 250 lbs. and this is the best shoe for the money if you’re on your feet a lot. I have paid 50% more and not been as satisfied.

My husband only wears Rockports -
My husband swears that Rockports are the most comfortable shoe he has ever worn. He usually owns 2 pairs at a time so he can alternate wearing them to work. He does a lot of walking, so the shoe provides good support for him.

Great shoe, MUCH larger than marked -
Even though a majority of reviews stated they thought these shoes were larger than marked, I went ahead and ordered my standard 10.5W size anyway. When I put them on they looked and felt like clown shoes. I returned them and ordered a full size smaller (9.5W) and when I got them, much to my amazement, they fit perfectly! They look and feel great, but I have no idea why the sizing is so off...

I work in the convention industry and have to walk on concrete floors on a daily basis. I have not owned a pair of Rockport shoes for some years, but was pleasantly surprised when I purchased and wore the Northfield model and found them to be extremely comfortable, especially when standing or walking for long periods of time. I would recommend these to anyone that has a similar job and wants a business casual shoe that can offer good support and comfort.

My husband loved them and other people asked where to get them when he wore them to work. He told them of course. We are very satisfied!

Happy husband -
Having never purchased shoes on line, my husband could not find what he wanted in stores, and I suggested Zappos. The quick search put in the size and soon he had a perfect fitting shoe for work that even looked nice. Even the first day of wear they felt like he had worn them for years.

Very nice shoes -
I really like these shoes. They look great and are comfortable for walking. The only problem was a sharp piece of leather on the tongue on one side, but it's softening up too. The sizing is really strange - they really are a whole size larger than normal.

Very comfortable and nice appearance. They are slightly generous in size for 10.5 but not full half size larger.

Zappos service is great the shoe bites -
The shoe order was filled in no time and no issues with Zappos. The shoe itself was not made for a large male with a wide (4x) foot. Rockport shoes have lost their luster for fitting the big man. Researching another brand as we speak and will use Zappos again.

My husband loved them. We ordered them for work. And they were very comfortable and were just what he wanted. True to size and he got compliments on them. He liked them so much he wore them out to dinner with his jeans that night.

I am a big man with a very wide foot. I have a tough time finding shoes that fit properly, with support and comfort when new, and then stay that way after they break-in. These shoes fit the bill. I use them for casual wear and for work when dress shoes are not necessary. Upside: Very comfortable, all the time; decent support; good looks for an engineering style of shoe; they are truly waterproof; priced right; and for a shoe with a soft leather finish, the uppers stand up to a lot of abuse without looking bad. Downside: The lightweight soles that add so much to the comfort and make the shoe much lighter in weight than they appear also tend to wear faster than Vibram or hard rubber. I have two pairs in my closet that still look good, but the soles have advanced wear. Operative words here ..."two pairs". Yes ... despite this, I continue to buy them because they do so much so well. I just ordered my next pair today. Great shoe. Thanks Zappos, your service is first class.

I great shoe for those with narrow feet needing support. Very comfortable--I am tempted to wear them more than just for business wear. You won't be disappointed.

After 70 years, I've found the perfect shoe -
This is the most comfortable shoe I have ever worn. I am finishing my second pair and ordering my third. I agree that the printed size is overstated; that is, what Rockport calls an 11 1/2 fits what I normally have as an 11 or 10 1/2. The sole goes on and on without re-soling, although this is partially due to the fact that I like the suede-brown model of this shoe and that finish starts to wear down, with cross-creases in front of the shoe, after approximately 300 daily wearings.

The shoe is quite comfortable as advertised but a little clunky looking. I tried on the same shoe and size in a local store before ordering this shoe from Zappos. The shoe in the store seemed roomier and even more comfortable. The shoes from Zappos seem to become more comfortable with wearing.

My order was made late Wednesday evening. Arrived on Friday afternoon. That is now. This is GOOD. Fit perfect. Very comfortable. I am hard to fit, soooooooo these are keepers. Selection was by brand first, appearance next, and cost. Generally a repeat buyer if treated well and no screw-ups. So far, VERY GOOD!

A big guy has big shoes to fill.
I liked the look of these bad boys, and I really needed a pair of comfortable, suede, tan shoes to wear at work. I dress in Tommy Bahama shirts, chinos, and Rockports, which is the required uniform for 50 year old men here in Southern California. The first pair were a bit narrow, and I didn't want to play that "wear them until they break in" game. Ihave a pair of hundred dollar shoes disappear into the back on my closet. I re-ordered a pair of 11 wides, while Zappos made it so easy in sending the narrow ones back. The 11 wides were extremely comfortable right out of the box and remain so, even at the end of their first 12 hour day. With the thick sole and Rockport comfort it's the perfect all-day shoe for a big guy.

The shoes fit comfortably. The arch support could have been a little stiffer for me. The soles seem to be a little softer than I hoped and are starting to wear off on the side of the heel after just 3 weeks.

 |  | I recently heard about Zappos.com from a friend. She said you were fast and she was right. I needed dress shoes for my daughter’s little miss pageant. You guys have a great selection of high quality shoes. You had exactly what I wanted, they matched the brown dress perfectly and she loved them. And the best part, they were here in less than 24 hours. Thanks to you the shoes were a hit and so was she. She was crowned Little Miss Shenandoah 2008. Kudos to you all! Thank you so much. |  | ~ Lori C., September 20 2008
