Customer Reviews Rockport Main Route Northfield Waterproof

This shoe is just what I was looking for in a casual everyday shoe. With that said, let me explain what I was looking for. I didn't want something that was fancy or stood out. I wanted a shoe that was versatile and could be worn walking the dog in a light rain as well as going out to a nice dinner. This is a very simple, classic design that can be worn with anything. I wanted a water proof shoe and this one fits the bill. This shoe was lighter weight than I was expecting which is nice, though the soul is not as robust as I would like; it's plenty thick, it just lacks the deep grooves and patterns that I am accustomed to. The only thing that I have found disheartening about this shoe is that because of the simple design, marks on the top of the toe are easily made and not easily removed. This may be a result of the smooth texture of the leather when the shoe is new and may very well be less of an issue as the shoe ages. I have had no problem with breaking this shoe in and it has been comfortable from the first day. I wear an 8.5 in a normal width.

Love this shoe! It's got a great "dress shoe" look but it's as comfortable as a walking or tennis shoe.

Great shoes. Very comfortable. Look good even when they're worn for a while. The only problem is that the soles wear out very quick. I wish they lasted longer. They're the only shoes I've worn for about 7 years now (a lot of pairs).

Exactly as advertised. These are the best shoes I have had on. This is my 3rd pair over the past several years. Good product.

I love the dark brown color and muted styling as both fit into a professional work environment. I will buy them again but in a 'narrow' size as the medium slips off the heel a bit more than expected. I like the quiet, soft sole material as I spend 100% of my day on my feet on vinyl floors and I don't 'squeak' when I walk. I have just worn them two days back-to-back from 6:30 until 5:30 and don't feel any back pains that my old (not Rockport) shoes inflicted on me. You can buy these shoes with confidence.

Good shoe - runs a little bit big, but not too much. Good arch support. Weighs a bit more than expected. Good traction. All in all I would buy again..

When it comes to stylish casual footwear, Rockport has never disappointed.

Very comfortable and well made. The toe shape is a little clunky, but you can't beat the all day comfort.

Very comfortable and surprisingly light weight with plenty of support. Bought them to work with dress pants for work. Normally would've liked a Chukka Boot version but these looked great for work on a rainy day. Glad I bought both color options.

I use this shoe to walk about a mile a day to/from subway and work. Solid shoe and, so far, holds up to rain and mud. Wish it had more cushion in the toe box. The sole seems sturdy and gives decent traction (just a little bit of slip over wet tiles).

My husband has had several pairs of these and loves them. But he does get some rubbing at the back of his ankle from the stiff collar in the back, which is pretty high. Otherwise, he's happy and loves the fact that they're waterproof, but look nice. Once they break in, they'll be good.

We live in a VERY wet, rainy area, and this shoe is great because it is pretty solid and keeps the water out. It does run about a half size, perhaps even a size big, if you happen to have small, narrow feet, which I do. It is nice, basic looking, no problems there. Easy to wear, definitely recommend it. Goes well with either jeans or Dockers. Nice casual dress show. The leather is nice as well. You never know until you have it in your hand, and we were not disappointed in this shoe!

This is a very nice shoe, well made. The only thing we noticed is that it is about 1/2 size large. My husband wears a narrow, and almost always an 11 1/2 sometimes a 12, but had to go all the way down to an 11, which he hasn't worn since high school! Luckily, we are dealing with the best shoe company in "town" and it has been a breeze to ship them back and exchange. Our local UPS store is right up the street, and it has been NO problem returning anything and getting our money back.
