Nice shoes, wide sized provides ample room for feet and toes...if you can get your foot through the narrow, tight instep. I know it takes a while to break shoes in, but my feet hurt so bad at the end of the day that I wound up returning for a refund.

They look good and I always love a slip on but these are just not comfortable. I didn't expect high quality, and I have a lot of Rockport shoes, but my feet just get tired of these after a few hours. Maybe some thicker socks are in order since these feel cheap and tight.

The fact is I found them to be a bit leaky. My left foot would start to feel damp whenever I walked over a wet surface. For instance, after it had rained and the sidewalk was wet (not flooded) the sole would absorb moisture -- microscopic capillary action? This was true soon after buying them. So, if you live someplace particularly dry (like Arizona or Southern California) you should be good to go. Otherwise, I would avoid them. Otherwise, they're comfortable and look nice enough.

I bought these because of all the people who said the stood and walked around all day. I work in a box retail store and my feet have been killing me for two years, wearing three different types of shoes. When I first put them on they feel better than any other shoe. A half our in, they feel like my other shoes. By the end of the night my feet hurt worse than with my other three shoes. I had to go back to a prior pair of shoes. It's sad- they look better than my others, but I need comfort.

These are not 4E these are narrow as all can be. Might be wide for where they are made. I buy other 4E Rockport and they fit perfectly

This shoe felt relatively comfortable from a fit and finish perspective. However, it squeaks when I walk, a rather embarrassing accoutrement which is not expected for a $100+ shoe.

Om my feet for 10 hrs a day. Shoes barely lasted 30 days before disintegrating. I don't have the money to spend for quality like that

1 star for the screwed up size system Rockport uses. I have never had a problem ordering 10.5 sized shoes with any brand. That was almost a full size too large. Other reviewers said to order a size down so I did. I could hardly put my foot inside. Never again.

I currently own a pair of Rockport shoes that are very similar to the ones I ordered except they are lace up. I like my existing shoes very much. When I received this pair of slip-on shoes, I could barely get them on my feet. The tag inside the shoes identifies them as XW, but I think they are really a Medium width. I have sent them back. I have enjoyed multiple pairs of Rockport shoes over the years. I wish these would have worked also.

This shoe slopped out with in a couple weeks. I received this shoe last November and didn’t work for 4 months of that 11 months and both soles are cracked and worn through. I work 4-5 nights a week 5-6 hour shifts. I’ve never had a pair of shoes wear out this quickly it even when I used to buy shoes for crews. Horrible! Won’t buy rockport again!

I do not think that these shoes are made correctly. I have worn slip on shoes for over 50 years. I never had a problem putting shoes on, BUT these shoes were almost impossible to get me feet into. The elastic was just too short. The vamp is extremely tight; so tight that when I finally got my foot into shoe the toe of the shoe started to point up. HORRIBLE FIT!!

Wide is not wide. 10 is not 10. Runs narrow, runs small. First and last time buying shoes on line. Don’t have time to stand in line at post office to send back. Gave them to a homeless guy; he liked them!

Had to return them, way too tight and a real struggle to get them on, and extremely tight across the widest part of the foot.. Same size and style of the shoes that they would have replaced. I had them for over twenty years, living in Arizona, I very rarely wear dress shoes.

There is no way these shoes are a true 4E. The opening is so small I can't even get my foot in. I take exception to companies listing something that is labeled as XW as 4E, those are two very distinct sizes and are not interchangeable.

I really can't say much about these shoes. I've had great luck with Rockports in the past but these were so dramatically undersized that I couldn't even get them own.

I sent these back. They looked nice but the goring is too small sothey are very hard to put on. It felt super stiff and uncomfortable and small. Maybe they would have broken in but I was not going to take the chance.

I could not get my foot in the shoe. I have very long and narrow feet. I could fit part of my foot in the shoe, but because the shoe opening is so small, I couldn't fit my foot in the shoe. I understand sometimes shoes are stiff at first, but I physically could not get my foot in the shoe.

The ones delivered were different from the ones in the picture, different style of toe. Also, the left one fit, the right one didn't, although the sizes indicated were the same. My first disappointment with Rockport and Zappos, and while their return service went well, I'm not at all satisfied with the purchase process. Will think twice about getting another pair, even though these were meant to replace an older pair of similar Rockports that need replacing because I have worn them so much. Why weren't they be as good as my old ones, also bought on Zappos?

I was immediately impressed with these shoes. I purchased these as my primary work shoes. Very comfortable to walk in. I was disappointed when after the first rainfall I found that the socks on my left foot were wet. The rain was not repelled as advertised. Don't know if this was a defect in these shoes or that they are not truly waterproof. I don't believe I can return them as I've already worn them for over a week. Zappos, if there is anything you can do to make this right, please reach out.
