This shoe rocks!
This shoe is incredibly comfortable for its style. I have narrow feet with high arches and I usually wear an 11 in anything but a sneaker, and an 11 M fit me perfectly. This shoe feels closer to a sneaker than a dress shoe, and it looks great dressed up, or with jeans and my leather jacket. I placed my order for these on a Friday night, and Zappos upgraded my shipping to next day for free! They arrived around 3 p.m. the following Monday. I am thrilled with this shoe, and thrilled with Zappos amazing service.

Excellent Shoe -
I love the Rockport Ellingwood shoe. I bought two of them black and cordovan. They were extremely comfortable by just the close of the first day of wearing them. They look smart and can be worn as either business casual shoes or casual shoes. The removable insole is an important feature for me as I wear orthotics. I recommend them to anyone to buy as long as you are not looking for a dressy or more formal business shoe.

Rockports Rock -
This is my first pair of Rockport shoes. I have a size 15/16 shoe and I usually have to settle for just what fits. I ordered these shoes for Homecoming which meant that I was going to be on my feet all night and dancing. The shoes were awesome!

Ready to wear out of the box -
I wore these for a full day of work without breaking them in, and my feet felt fine afterwards. It's a nice-looking shoe, and I especially appreciate the fact that it's available in extra wide sizes.

Looks better than it feels - I lost money on this purchase. I have worn Rockport in the past and they have proven to be comfortable, but not this time. I don't know why, but I cannot wear these shoes. They seem to be comfortable when I put them on, but after just a short time of wear they cause my feet to hurt and my legs to feel tired. I thought I just needed to break them in, but I have returned to wearing my old shoes and my new shoes are sitting in my closet. I would not purchase another pair of these shoes. I was very impressed by the quick delivery and service of Zappos but very disappointed in my shoes.

Rockport's -
My husband wears a very wide shoe, and it's difficult to find shoes for him. I remembered about Zappos on-line ordering and thought I would try it. I'm always reluctant to order on-line, but I will definitely use ZAPPOS again. Turn around time from ordering to delivery was super. A lot of choices too...

Balanced dress-shoe.
I bought this dress shoe the day before a consulting interview. My purchase was made in a brick-and-mortar store, not on Zappos.com.
The "Ellingwood" is a solidly built shoe, comfortable and built to last a few years. I tried on a few other dress shoes, Johnston & Murphys, Kenneth Coles, and Bostonians, many more than 2 or 3 times the price of this shoe, and ultimately, the salesperson recommended this Rockport model. Once I put it on, I knew that I was going to buy it.
The rubberized sole cushions each step nicely, especially on New York City's unforgiving cement sidewalks. True to form, the shoe wicks away moisture on rainy days, making it a great all-weather shoe. However, as other users have mentioned, the weatherproof design insulates this shoe, making it very hot to wear during the humid summer months.
If you are not a shoe connoisseur and just want a beat 'em up shoe to wear to the occasional dress interview, this is the shoe for you. Alternately, if you are a shoe snob and want a "beater" to wear during inclement weather, this is a great bargain buy. Rockport shoes are owned by Adidas Ltd. AG, meaning that most Rockport shoes are designed for durability and dependability, not on sleek fashion. If you are looking for a "fashion shoe" to turn heads, look to Ferragamo. If you are looking for a reliable shoe that does what it says, go for the "Rockport: Ellingwood".

A very comfortable dress shoe. The inside is very supportive and cushioned. The outside is quality made and light weight.

Poor Rockport -
I'm a Rockport fan, normally the most comfortable shoe made. I realized now that their dress shoes are not so good. Pressure on top of foot, loud squeak when walking, run tight, poor circulation and feet get hot. Rockport has the best casual & business casual around, no question. The dress shoes probably could get out of that line of shoes in my opinion. Be careful in buying their dress shoes as they seem to have the same negatives as the Ellingwood.
Honest input from someone who is not that picky.

I bought these for my husband for Fathers Day. He has had the Rockport brand before and just loved them. For the first few days of wear he said they were a little stiff, but they are fine now and have stretched out and are now quite comfortable.

Comfortable dress shoe - Not an oxymoron anymore - This shoe is simple in its design to such an extent that it achieves elegance. One reason I dread formal events is the discomfort caused by most dress shoes. Not these! No one will ever suspect how good my feet are feeling when I wear these! I wish they didn't squeak on marble floors, though. A definite BUY!

Least comfortable Rockports I own -
These shoes pinch the small toes when walking to the point of being quite painful by the end of the day. This is my 4th pair of Rockports and I've been very pleased until now.

Great work shoe.
If you work around water and dirty locations bit want a formal good look then this shoe is for you. Just wipe it off and it looks like it was just professionally shined. Very comfortable for long times on your feet. Will replace when the time comes with another pair. I have both colors.

Sweet Comfort -
I have tried many other shoe brands and nothing fits like a Rockport. This particular Rockport has been the most comfortable for those folks who have a wide foot. It has full support and snugs to your feet for a heavenly feel.

Very nice -
A very nice shoe, I had to add another insole to it to get it to fit, but I have very narrow feet and that is nothing new to me. I did get the narrow one too. I'm on my feet for 10 to 12 hours a day and I still feel good at the end of it. I recommend the shoe to anyone that is looking for a nice dress shoe.

Winner shoe -
This shoe was perfect for my career. Easy styling, good comfort for lots of walking, and a very reasonable price. But Zappos made it the sweetest shoe. I ordered at 10:20pm and when i arrived home next day at 5:30pm, the shoes had been delivered. And free postage. How can you go wrong?

Great Shoe. Great Price. Great Service.
Great shoe all around. I purchased in advance of business trip to D.C. because with the amount of walking I needed something comfortable/durable and that would go well with a suit. This shoe accomplished my goals...and at a price that didn't break the bank (utilized the price matching option as well). What's even better, I ordered the shoe the Monday afternoon before having to leave on my trip (the same Friday) and had the shoes the next day. For these reasons, I continue to choose Zappos.com when purchasing new shoes.

Waterproof looks and comfort -
I don't understand why it's so difficult to find wide shoes, or waterproof shoes. Fortunately, this shoe fills both those needs, and looks great while doing it.

Painful -
The Ellington was painful to break in. By the end of a 3 day trip - I could hardly walk. My last pair (the model this replaced) were ready to wear out of the box. Not sure where Rockport went wrong with this shoe.

Great shoe, accommodates width variations well -
This shoe has a Blucher design which adjusts nicely to the width of the foot for a good fit. This works great for my husband whose feet are different widths. This is a very nice looking shoe, and he has found it to be more comfortable than the Eccos he's been wearing for years, at about half the price. Zappos customer service was amazing at helping pick this out, it was just what I needed. Kudos to them!

Good dry shoe -
The shoes are soft and comfortable. I normally don't like rubber soles on dress shoes, but rainy Oregon necessitates a waterproof shoe for all the rain in the fall and winter. They don't breathe as well as I would like, and they can get hot, but that's a waterproof (resistant) shoe for you. I’m pretty happy with them overall.

I ordered new Ugg slippers on Wednesday night after 9PM and I was soooo surprised that they were waiting for me like a dutiful dog at my back door when I got home from work Thursday afternoon.
