These are not the rockports of old. These are cheaply made with very hard soles Retuned after trying to wear around the house Very uncomfortable

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.

The color is not chocolate nubuck (brown), but more like grey beige, and very artificial and unnatural. The leather upper, and also the sole, is stiff, the shoe does not hug your foot like before. I will not buy again. Rockport made a big mistake changing the construction.

I was very disappointed with the small fit (a size that seems to work for other companies) and absolutely no arch or foot support. It was like walking on a piece of flat cardboard. I expected so much more from a Rockport product.

These Rockports just aren't the same shoe I loved in the past. The soles are rock hard so the comfort is gone.

My husband has been wearing these shoes for years and loves them. We ordered him 2 pairs a while back and one pair was true to size but the other identical shoe was too small. He has a wide foot and wides have always fit so we thought it was just a fluke and sent the smaller shoe back. This time we ordered his size in wide and extra wide to try both. Both pair of shoes were too small, he could not get them on. Don't know what has changed but his feet haven't, everything else he buys is the same size. Back they had to go again. He is going to try going up 1/2 size so we will keep our fingers crossed because he absolutely loves this shoe.

I returned these. I bought them to replace Rockport ProWalkers which were too hard in the sole. These weren't any better. Too bad Rockport changed their design and lost the comfort!

Fit was great, but after minimal wear, the upper is separating from the sole.

I purchased sport white. When I opened the box, the color is nothing like the website. It is NOT white; it is gray. Attached is a photo of the shoe next to a sheet of paper.

There haven't been many shoes where even before it's all the way on you're thinking "man this is awful." How these are walking shoes I don't know, they are profoundly uncomfortable. No cushion, odd lumps in the insoles that don't seem to relate to foot anatomy, and a stiffness that seems like it would never get more flexible. I can't recall the last pair of shoes I dislike as much as these. Sending them back first thing tomorrow.

Bought these shoes on 3/24/19 and today , after wearing them for the first time, the sole started separating from the rest of the shoe on its side. Very poor quality.

I have had these shoes for 7 months now, and I only wore it very very occasionally, that is because it is definitely the worst pair of shoes I have ever had!! The part surrounding the back of the ankle is so hard and stiff, I have to wear very thick socks to avoid getting blisters!

Made in a different country than previous years. Quality of material is cheaper. Not as comfortable. Bottoms are this inferior rubber that squeeks with every step!!

I have ordered the Rockport World Tour Classic in brown several times, in the exact same size, color, and width, and on this last round, it was clearly NOT the same Rockport quality. The shade of brown was darker, it was narrower, and simply of cheaper and poorer quality. Returning this, not bothering with an exchange. My husband found a pair of Sketchers in a similar style at Famous Footwear, and they were way better. Not going back to Rockport for this shoe ever.

I have been buying a specific model Rockport for years and have been very pleased with them. However, it appears Rockport stopped making them so I bought these, which are very similar in style. Although I had to change the size I expected them to be as good. They were not. Once I actually left the house and walked in them, not on a carpet but on a sidewalk, it was evident there was no arch support and there was barely any padding at the heel. Within 20 minutes, with minimal walking, my knees and lower back were hurting. Fortunately, Zappos was good enough to take them back.
