Customer Reviews Rockport World Tour Classic Walking Shoe

These Rockports aren't what they used to be. Unfortunately, no shoes made in China seem to be. I could feel ridges under my feet when I put my weight on them. You would also think they could give you laces with them that were long enough. I couldn't even tie the shoes. I thought I'd replace the laces from a pair of this this same shoe that was many years old, but the shoes were too uncomfortable to keep. Returning.

These used to be better. I tried a third pair after the first 2 worked well with different insoles. Now the laces are too short and it feels like the shoe is smaller overall. The rest of the evening my feet hurt after trying them on for a bit, so I sent them back.

I bought this pair of shoes because of the high ratings, but I am really disappointed, since my experience is very bad. The sole is very hard and stiff, and there is very little cushion. I am really surprised by the high ratings and the amount of reviews it has. I saw people on Amazon had the same concern and suspected about getting a knockoff. I doubt that possibility, but it is very puzzling that my experience is drastically different from others.

A pretty and manly shoe I purchased for both my 40 year old son and my husband, and neither liked it. It was a bit short in size (one is a 14 and the other a 13), and both felt it fit short. We returned them.

Stiff and very uncomfortable I sent them back

I've had several pairs of these in the same size over the years and liked them very much, but this last pair seems like a different shoe - smaller and the "feel" of the sole is off, almost like it's higher on the outside than the inside. Not sure if I just got a bum pair or if the design has changed, but I'm disappointed.

I agree with the top critical review that I read on the rockport world tour classic shoes. I have been buying rockports for at least 20 years along with other shoes that I like. however, I was very disappointed in these shoes. I have worn them 1 time to a school outing with my grandson. When I got home, I took the shoe off and never put them on again. I hate to return things but I will probably return these. I put them in my closet and have forgotten about them for approx. 3 to 4 months. The main complaint was the shoe came up too high at my ankles and were starting to rub a blister on the bottom of the ankle by the time I got home. I really hate to return them because they are a very smart looking shoe and reek of comfort when viewed.

I was expecting a more comfortable shoe for the price of this shoe.

I found a significant flaw in two pair and then switched to Dunham. The shoes are very comfortable, seem true to size, and are well styled. But on two pair the eyelets had rough inside surfaces that immediately started causing abrasion on the laces. The abrasion was readily felt and heard as I pulled the laces through the eyelets. A clear case of poor quality control and poor materials. For an alternative, albeit more expensive, I found the Dunham Midland Oxford excellent.
