Customer Reviews Cobb Hill Petra

Love, love these shoes, so comfortable and very happy with my experience, first time I wore them, great comfort, love the style and color what more could I ask for.

Love these shoes. Felt great from the first time I put then on! I have a narrow foot and very narrow heel. I wear these with socks and find them perfect with jeans or slacks. Rockport Cobb Hill Collection is my go to choice for shoes, both in comfort styles and in dress shoes.... Keep them coming, Zappos!

The size was perfect and the shoes felt great. I will buy another pair soon...

They look good, are of excellent quality and fit well.

I am very happy with my purchase! They look really sharp and the sizing and width work for me. I have bunions and need extra room for my toes, which they have and the heel is not too loose. Very comfortable even when standing for quite a while. Leather is dressy. Wore with a dress and looks great with slacks, as well. That was my goal. Zappos took care of me once again??

I have an earlier version of this shoe (about 3 yrs) and loved it. I was sad I didn't buy 2 pairs. This time around, I am buying a second pair as soon as they are in stock again. Perfect fit, arch support and they will stand the test of time. Love them.

Very pleased to find ‘slipper comfort’ the first time to wear these shoes. I like the detailed cutwork, adding unique character!

I have 2 pairs of these very comfortable shoes--in black and red. True to Rockport and Cobb Hill, they are quite comfortable the first time I wore them. I have several foot "problems." The comfort of the shoe and the arch support are quite important.

I really love these shoes. The first time I wore them anywhere, I got two "out of the blue" compliments on my cute shoes! They are comfortable and are good for light walking, but I wouldn't wear them for any really long walks because I need more support and less flexibility. I wear a 7 1/2 or an 8 and I ordered the 8 and that felt fine. It's a little loose in the heel, but the straps are great and keep it from slipping. And, I DO wear socks. If you want to go barefoot in them you might think they run big. I might order a pair in another color. The Bordeaux is really nice--not too red and not too brown.

I loved them. Too large

Love these shoes! Have good arch support for my very high arches. No foot or back pain with these shoes. Ordering another pair now.

The shoes are true to size. They were comfortable from the moment I put them on.

I love these shoes! Wore them right out of the box! Walked 2 miles to and from work. Tried to order more the next day but they were not available in my size. I will keep checking though! They are great walking shoes and look good enough for work and casual events. Fit is true to size. I ordered pewter and love the color. Goes great with black, grey and blue.

These shoes are very comfortable and good looking. I was unsure about how well they would fit because I have narrow feet, and toe toe box is wider than most of my other shoes. However, the the shoe heel is narrower than the toe box. There is no slippage in the back and my toes are very happy with the extra room up front. The insole is soft and cushy. I'm very pleased with my purchase.

True to size and width. I wish the cross strap was either bit narrower or a bit further away from my ankle. They are comfortable but a little stiff.

Due to the reviews, I first went to a store to try on Rockport Mary Janes to check for length. The various Rockport Mary Janes appear to use the same shoe last. I tried on Daisy flats. I was amazed that size 10 was as long as my men's 10 boots! (I never take a 10 in women's shoes, but I bought 10 narrow Petra shoes.) I take size 11 in women's adidas. I wear size 12 in Easy Spirit leather walking shoes. I just took some Petra measurements to help others. The bottom sole of size 10 narrow at the longest point is 11 1/4" and the back center seam vertical rise is 2.5". My podiatrist made me both cushiony orthotics for boots and tennis shoes as well as dress orthotics, the latter of which, work well in my Petra shoes. I will be so much more comfortable wearing these Rockport Petra shoes vs. high-heeled or even low-heeled shoes!

Love the color (pewter I think) as it is a good neutral. Very comfortable and good walkers. Hopefully will be taking them to Italy in a few months!

I have a bunion on one of my feet, and it took me a very long time to find a pair of shoes that looks nice and is comfortable. I usually wear a 7 medium but I ordered this shoe in the 7 medium and also in 6 1/2 wide. Both of them fit me! I wasn’t sure which pair to keep-One of the reasons I ordered this model was because another reviewer said that they have a nice wide toebox even in the medium width. I don’t have wide feet but I wanted lots of space for my bunion and I didn’t want my bunion to be the one that’s stretching out the shoe which is what usually happens. Even my sneakers get holes on the side where my bunion bangs out. In the end, I kept the 6 1/2 wide, and returned the 7 medium. I love shopping with Zappos because returns are so easy, I knew I could keep one and return whichever one was less fitting me or return them both if neither were good for me. I have custom-made light weight orthotics which I put inside the shoes to give me the arch support that I need. The shoes are now super comfortable and look very cute. And they’re not too wide on the ankle end. And I believe this is how good shoes should be-should be comfortable right away. I highly recommend these shoes.

I love the Cobb Hill collection--I have 3 pairs. These are the most substantial of the 3 pairs--the other two are sandals. I have the Petra in pewter and can wear them with or without socks. I recently wore them on a 2-week trip to Europe during which we we were on our feet for 10 hours per day sightseeing and standing in museums. No blisters and plenty of support.

I love these shoes! My only disappointment was that the pewter color is actually darker than the picture shows. I wear AA width and in some shoes a AAA, so it's difficult for me to shoe shop. Having the strap across the foot is helpful since it didn't come in a AAA. Overall, very satisfied with my purchase.
