Cute white shoe - This shoe is perfect for living here in the Southwest. It is a little uncomfortable between the toes, I keep hoping in time it will get better. I will not count on these shoes for extensive walking.

The leather between the toe needs to be worked in. This is the first time I have experienced a Minnetonka shoe that needs to be broken in.

"At Last!" he said. My husband has been looking for these shoes forever. He just finds the shoe he likes, and gets a new pair of the same when they wear out. But by then usually the styles change! Luckily, we found this pair. He wears them every day, and they look great. The padding at the top of the shoe is really comfy (he tells me), and he just loves them. He is the kind of guy who really only likes the best. And he likes these shoes!

Completely Satisfied - The shoes were for my husband who has a wide foot. They fit him perfectly and he is wearing them to work on a daily basis. The shoes look nice but also are very comfortable.

Great Service & Product - I took a chance and ordered my Rockports from this company online. They fit perfectly and were even in better condition than when I buy them in a retail store. And what terrific service! They were delivered dircetly to my door, free of charge within 48 hours of my ordering them. I'll never buy retail again.

Great shoes for a bad back - I bought these shoes for my husband. His shoes normally last about 6 months. His Rockport sneakers have lasted well over a year, and are still walking. After I purchased his Rockport sneakers, his back felt better when walking and standing. He now loves his work shoes. They are dressy, comfortable, and provide stability for him. Thank you Rockport and Zappos!

Another terrific office shoe from Rockport! I've been wearing Rockports in the office for about 8 years now and they are simply terrific! I finally had to put a beloved pair of Goretex Rockport Dessports to sleep and was looking for a replacement pair. The Margin's look very similar, so I took a chance. The fit is true to size, they feel good straight out of the box with no break-in time, and they look very professional. All that and Zappos top-notch service, reasonable prices, and free shipping!

Great for Business and Casual Wear - I searched for months looking for a smart looking and comfortable pair of shoes that I could wear for both business and casual. I tried on my first pair of Rockport Margins at the Rockport Store at Tysons Corner (a major shopping mall thirty miles from my home here in Northern Virginia). When I tried these shoes on (11.5 W) I knew that I had found the perfect shoe in quality, fit and style. It came in three colors and I bought two pair(burgundy and brown {nubuck expresso})right then and there. I had no idea when I might get back to that mall or if that style would still be available. When I discovered Zappos.com many months later and discovered that they too carried the Rockport Margin; I wasted no time in ordering a pair in Black which Zappos promptly shipped and I had within a couple of days. I've found my shoe store and I don't have to drive the Interstate and dodge traffic anymore to get that perfect pair of shoes. My shoe store is now just a few keystrokes away and then my shoes are on their way. Great selection. Great service! I highly recommend the Rockport Margin.

Just what I hoped for - This is exactly what I hoped for, but I wish there were additional Rockport models available in size 11N.

Margin - I was a long time fan of Bass dirty buck shoes. These Rockports fit great, look good and are comfortable right out of the box.
