The laces were too short! The shoes were fine, but the laces were 42” , not the necessary 45”. Zappos had no laces; they gave me a $20 refund and asked me to order the required laces from Shoelaces.Com. The cost + shipping was $15, and took a week to arrive! So I was not happy with the purchase from Rockport.

Similar thoughts as for the Clark Varga Plain: The insides are not leather lined like my 8 year old Born's. It seems to be lined with the same material as the outsides which made putting them on very difficult, even with a shoe horn.
The fit was too snug even though the size was my "standard" 10.5 M/D. Returned the shoes.
I'd also recommend:
Born if they had my 8 year old ones.

While the quality of these shoes seems superior, they sure do run small, like the other three pairs of shoes I bought, all in different styles. I returned them in hopes of getting a more suitable size, but you have to return them first and now they don't have anything in my size. Huge disappointment. I have been a 10R for many years, my feet have not changed. Felt like I was wearing a 9 narrow or something.

I was very unhappy with my purchase. I ordered my size in a wide fit due to some nerve damage in my toes they tit length wise but tight aggravating immediately. And the doles of the shoes may have been a piece of wood. Absolutely no arch and hard as my tile floor. For a hundred and some change a pair i expected way better. Complete waste of money.

I have worn Rockport's for over 15 years. I love the World Tour Classic shoe, and my previous shoe was wearing out. I was very disappointed to find that the new shoes are not nearly as wide as the old one. The new shoes really put pressure on the sides of my foot (I have a wide foot). I'm not sure what Rockport changed, but this will be the last time I purchase shoes from them. I wear a 10 extra wide, and the shoe definitely is not that despite the label.

I am uncomfortable with the shoe, will there be a way to change them for another model? ... I don't want any money back, only to change them for another model that is more comfortable because I walk a lot in my work, they feel like an orthopedic model ... in general I am very disappointed!!

Uncomfortable fit. The front of the shoe over the top is sewn a degree below the tongue of the shoe thus creating pressure on the top of your foot. Leading to a very uncomfortable fit. The first pair of shoes I ever had to return.

Very disappointed. I purchased classic walking shoes for my husband years ago. He is still wearing them. So I ordered him a pair of sneakers for work. He installs flooring so he is hard on shoes & needs something flexible. The first pair lasted a year when Rebox & others would fall apart in 3 months. So I ordered a second pair exactly the same. The 2nd pair fell apart in less than a month. I thought it was just a fluke so I ordered a 3rd pair & they fell apart in less
than a month. Recently I tried ordering him a new pair of classic Walking shoes. His first pair were size 9.5 Wide. So I ordered 9.5 Extra wide thinking it would take less time to break them in. They weren't as wide as his old regular wide pair. He couldn't even get them on his feet. We're super bummed!!

I received two shoes that didn't match in size, color, or labeling. I did take the time to try them on to make sure I couldn't use them. If I were running the company I would offer to replace the errant pair with a discounted substitute, since it was a bit of an inconvenience that could have been easily avoided. I am reluctant to order anything else from the company, even though I like what I see of their product line. It is sad because I have purchased that same shoe a number of times before online and almost always got what I expected.

why do manufacturers put so much toe spring into shoes these days? It’s ridiculous! Who wears these? The toe is bent up like an elf’s shoe. My feet ache in these torture devices. I have purchased at least three pairs in the past and they fit fine, now the excessive toe spring they mold into these makes these unwearable.

One shoe was a shade lighter in color. They really weren't properly paired, as one was labeled 9W and the mate was labeled 9M. I believe both shoes are medium widths, which I can't use. Now I have to go through the trouble of returning them when the order could have been properly filled if someone had been paying attention.

My left foot feels like it is a vise when I wear these shoes. This is the fourth time I have purchased these Rockport shoes. Previous purchases were comfortable. I don't know what happened when Rockport moved the production to India but the fit is abysmal.

i have at least 4 previous pairs of this shoe - comfy upon first wearing. This new version made in India with "XW" width is stiff and smaller in fit - I returned them immediately.

They're smaller & narrower than older models. The quality of the materials has also declined.

I have worn rockports for 20 years, 9 wide. This pair is the same as the others except it is too long and narrow. Something must have changed when the moved manufacturing. Sending back and looking for a different brand.

I've used to by these shoes for years, it's my 5th or 6th pair, and it was outstanding quality every time. Not anymore. They are too stiff and still stiff after two weeks of use. Also, laces are shorter, which makes lacing quite inconvenient.

I wanted a shoe that I thought replaced a discontinued model. Chocolate nu-buck with contrasting stitching. The photo looked correct but the delivered shoe did not have the contrasting stitching. I returned the shoe.
