Great shoe for the price. It looks nice and is waterproof. Due to an old ankle injury, I need a rubber sole to limit impact on hard surfaces. This shoe provides that and is comfortable. One downside is that the shoe doesn't breath as well as some of my more expensive shoes - a small compromise for an otherwise fine shoe, especially for the price.

Very disappointed with this shoe. It's too darn narrow! Marked as EW (4E). In no way is this shoe a 4E. I used calipers to compare THIS shoe's internal width to other, new, Rockport 4E shoes. There IS a significant difference in width. This shoe is mislabeled.

On my feet a lot, very comfortable right out of the box. Only work shoe I'll buy, on 8 th pair over several years. Only complaint is that the soles wear out too quickly.

This shoe looks sharp and well made. I have very wide feet with high arches. A 4E in some other brands fits me well, but the 4E size in this shoe was a little too narrow, so I had to send it back.

I will try a similar style by Dunham. I have another 4E Dunham that fits me perfectly.

Really like the Rockport brand. I have a hard time finding shoes that are wide enough and Rockport has good wide sizes. Unfortunately I had to return this pair as they were to narrow.

I am very hard to fit, or if shoes do fit they do not feel comfortable. So far, so good with these shoes.

I bought these shoes in a 14W for my very tall 17 year old son for his homecoming dance. I ordered several pairs in his size from Zappos and these were by far the nicest looking and most comfortable and won his approval as well as mine. They appear to be well made, have a classic look and he will be able to wear them for many years to come.

Comfortable, good-looking shoe; needs no real break-in time; did well in rain first day worn. Reasonable price.

Good shoe. Good fit. But shine doesn't keep as well as other shoes.

Service and pricing from Zappos is great. This shoe is very comfortable in the wide size. Style wise it is not as dressy as would have wished. Still a good buy.

This worked well for 9 months but recently the sole feels very rigid. Started getting pain the arch. Initially I thought my orthotics had worn out so ordered new ones but it did not help. Only feel pain when I wear these shoes so definitely an issue with the shoes. Have been using Rockport shoes for about 4 years now and never had this issue in the past. Going to try the Dunham brand for now

I'm hoping the 11.5 wide becomes available. This shoe fit well lengthwise but was a bit narrow in the toe box. I tried moving up to 12-D but found it had well over a thumb width of space between my largest foot and the end of the shoe.

I bought the shoes for casual wear. They look good and provide enough room for my foot to feel comfortable. The insole is very thin and takes away from the wear of the shoe. After walking or standing for longer than 12-15 minutes, your feet feel tired because of the lack of cushioning. I would recommend this shoe to friends with a caution. I would warn them about the very thin insole.

Just tried the pair on after the very efficient shipment. Not nearly as comfortable as my last pair of Rockports. I'll be returning them and try another style, since I've really been treated well by Rockports in the past.

Don't buy this shoe! I'm a long time Rockport wearer and have bought what I thought was this shoe over the years. I've had them re-soled and worn them for years before replacing them. BUT this pair is made of something that seems like plastic. The soles are very cheap. Seem to be plastic. Nothing gives or stretches or breaks in. I've had them over a year and I'm probably going to throw them away. I only can find temp work working on my feet, and this has been no small matter for me physically or financially.

I should have known something was up when the price range was like $55 to $110. This shoe was likely some form of manufacturer error and that is why it was sold here on the low end scale. I should have sent it back when the material started to come off the side of the shoe. I didn't because it was in a location where my pant leg would cover it. Now I notice that the area of the tongue of the shoe is, where the laces are, looks horrible. Very scratched up and again, the material on the tongue is EASILY coming off. I know I wear my shoes hard, but I've only had these for a little over a month. This should not be happening. Straight garbage. I've typically done well with Rockport, but I will never get these shoes again and Rockport has maybe one more time with me before I kick them to the curb.

I have ordered at least 5 pairs of this identical shoe. Always happy until now. Previous pairs were comfortable out of the box, this pair is horrible. Way too narrow and tight over the top of my foot. Tongue also cuts into my anterior ankle. I don't understand this as I replaced the exact same shoe with the exact same size.
