Customer Reviews Rocket Dog Stoker

I had a pair of these that lasted through the majority of college -- until I finally wore through the soles. I experimented with another shoe next that lasted a fraction the amount of time as this style, and here I am again. What isn't immediately apparent from the picture (for any prior owners of this style) is that there's actually been a pretty significant overhaul in the construction of the top half of the shoe. The aesthetic is still largely the same, but as a whole it feels immensely more solid. The mesh doesn't go all the way through to your sock anymore -- there's an underlying layer of fabric to keep the breeze (and rain and snow) out; instead of fabric and a heel pull in the back there are multiple layers of material that make it sturdier (though it's now harder or impossible to slip the shoe on without undoing the velcro strap in front); the entire shoe is more padded and warmer than it used to be. The heel has also been flattened slightly -- I used to have a problem from time to time with rolling in or out on my ankle because the heel was so round, but this seems to have been resolved with the re-design. Overall, a really nice shoe has gotten immensely better. To me it's a shoe that fits around my foot, not something my foot fits into. And while most days I kick my footwear off as soon as I get to work or get home, I seldom even think about it with these. I am, to say the least, a fan.

Oh my dogs. I absolutely love these shoes. I was so upset when I couldn't find these anywhere and lo and behold Zappos had them ready to ship. They are so comfortable and cute and go perfect with anything. I even wear 'em to work! I love Rocket Dog and I love Zappos!

When I ordered these, I didn't realize that the laces were just for show and that the shoe only closed by a Velcro strap. That being said, I love these shoes!! They are so comfy, right out of the box. And if you are short like me, they give you a little extra height. I love the suede fabric, and the dark brown color goes with everything. Great shoes!

I bought the Black Rocket Dog Stokers - Love them! I have a bunion - so the wide toe box really helps. I also own a pair of Brown ones. Also very warm shoes for in the cold weather.

Great shoe. Nice and roomy in the toes and comfortable for wearing 8 hours or more at work on my feet.

I love these shoes. I had pair a couple of years ago and could not find them again when I wanted to replace them. I was so happy to see them here. I have wide feet and high arches and these are perfect for my foot type. Also, the customer service is the best. Keep up the good work.

I Love my Rocket Dog shoes. They are very comfortable and I can wear them all day.

I had these shoes back in the day circa 2001. I missed them when the soles wore through. This is my second pair. They are pretty roomy if you have wide feet and are so comfy right out of the box.

I have worn these shoes for about 5 years and was disappointed when I couldn't find them. I am very glad they are back because they are very comfortable and rugged.

I have had these exact shoes before and wore them out (it took a few years)! My feet are moderately wide and these are so comfortable. They are also supportive and have good traction. I also love the style, slip on with velcro, but you cant really tell that by looking at them. So I don't appear to be too lazy! I love these shoes!

These are the best shoes ever! I was so thrilled to find them at Zappos after my first pair wore out. They are super comfortable and wear really well too.

These shoes are amazingly comfortable, love them! Great with jeans, casual slacks. I also ordered them in black. I own several styles of Rocket Dog brand shoes and all are really comfy!

This is my 2nd pair of Stokers. Most comfortable pair of casual shoes I own. Velcro makes it easy to go through airport security!

This is a great shoe for the value. I love the style. This is my everyday shoe. The shoe is actually a lot lighter than it looks.

I love this shoe. I wear them all the time. They are comfortable and great to wear when walking a lot. They are also cute. What more could you ask for?

I love the Rocket Dog Stoker. It is a very comfortable shoe, sporty looking, and true to size. You could wear these shoes walking, shopping or anywhere. They're super comfy and versatile. I love these Rocket Dogs!!

Best shoes I've ever had. I have all three colors. Super comfortable. Don't ever take these off the market!!!

I ordered to pair of Rocket Dog Stoker Shoes. Had to return 1 pair because they didn't fit right. It was a smooth transaction and no hassle!

This shoe is vey cute and comfortable. I have wide feet and the shoe fits me great.

I love my Rocket Dog shoes. They were a half size too small, so returned them for a 7.5. I've never worn a 7.5 before, so they definitely run a half size small. They are super comfortable and I love to wear them to work where I'm on my feet all day. I noticed a bit of the glue under one of the stripes come out right after I got them (more than a month ago). I pulled it out and never had any other problems with them. The square toe is dramatic. I was worried they'd be too clowny. In the black they're fun and spunky and not too silly.

Best shoes EVER. I always buy a few pair when my size comes back into stock - please please please never stop making these! They are great for a job that has me on my feet for 8+ hours, inside and out. They look great! The only complaint is that the rubber bottoms give out after a few months, but I'm not sure if it's because the sole is weak or that I put these shoes through a lot. LOVE THEM. Wide toe bed, cute look, comfy support!

I had purchased a pair of black Rocket Dog Stoker Suede shoes at a mall and I really liked them. I bought a half size larger than I usually do because they run a little small. I found them so comfortable that I wanted a brown pair. Because we live two hours from that mall, I looked on the internet for a brown pair and found them at Zappos. No shipping was great so I ordered them and had no problems with my order. I don't think I would order shoes on line, ordinarily, but because I already had a pair of these, I knew they would fit.

This is the third year in a row I have bought Rocket Dog shoes for everyday wear. They are comfortable and well-made. Each year the styles keep getting better too! I like these so much I want to get them in black.

Nice comfy shoe when I tried it on. But after for a few hours, I noted that my toes were bumping up against the squared toe. I would order a half size larger next time. I may contact Zappos and see if exchanged is allowed even after you wear the shoe.

I really love these shoes! I have a serious foot problem that I had fixed about 6 months ago, but it's still hard for me to find shoes that are comfortable for my toe frame (very wide in the toes). I wanted these shoes after a friend bought them, and am even more satisfied than I ever expected! Very wide toe box area in these -- almost a square toe. Ultra comfortable as well. I wore them shopping for a whole day last weekend and felt even better than when I'm wearing my Nike tennis shoes! On another note, for anyone who hasn't ordered from Zappos yet, I would urge you to start if you're hesitant for any reason. I've had a lot of bad customer service as of late, but Zappos is the one place I can always count on to be fast, fair, and really about the customer's overall satisfaction. Very loyal customer right here!
