Nice shoe! I love the details like the little point toward the toes and the pattern made with the leather. I have narrow feet, so I was happy to see that they were available in N.

I like these shoes but ultimately decided the toe box was a bit too narrow. They were comfortable but after a long day on my feet my toes need spreading room. These are very feminine and professional loking shoes. They felt true to size (I wear 8.5 and bought an 8.5), even with socks.

This is the second pair of these shoes that I've purchased. They are comfortable, look good and have good support. They also accommodate orthotics if needed. This pair felt tight across the vamp on the right foot, but that may be from a swollen foot. I had foot surgery a year ago. I'm sure the'll stretch some.

LOVE, LOVE LOVE this shoe, I have the black and can wear my orthotics with them, work all day and walk 2 miles home with no blisters. I have hammertoes, bunions, neuroma, high arches, mortons toe, and a mild heel spur, so finding shoes that fit is always a miracle!

I got a 1/2 size smaller than I generally wear and these Petra still had a thumb's worth of space beyond my toe. I really liked the blue color, but in the end, they are much like my Camper's, so I decided not to keep them. Perhaps I'll get a smaller size to choose in the future when I really need them. I bet I would love them in the right size, so it is hard to rate them low just for that problem other than having to pay for taxes that I will not get back when returning them.

I have a very difficult time finding comfortable shoes. These are great! I would recommend these to anyone. I have already worn them several days since I received them. Better then tennis shoes!

I got these and immediately wore them the next day for a 10k step day, and they felt great. No difficult break-in period or painful spots.

Finally I found my perfect shoe! I have all the known foot problems, bunions, flat feet, splayed toe and hammer toes.With all of that these shoes are comfortable and have enough support and cushion for hours of shopping or walking around. I have 3 pairs and would like to see them offered in light tan or linen. I did have them stretched a little at the toe area as really no shoe made accommodates my feet but these work! This shoe even with the rubber sole does not look clunky like some out there that I own. They work great and are cute with nice dress slacks or jeans. The strap for me is in the right place as some strapped shoes I've tried won't keep the shoe on my foot. I never thought that would an issue but obviously it can be for some people. This is my first try at strapped shoes and these work very well to keep the shoe on my foot as slip on shoes do not work for me. I worked with an independent shoe store and they really worked to get a shoe to fit my feet and I am so glad they carry Rockport and Cobb Hill. They even ordered a style they don't normally carry that was a different strap style Polly that did not work because the strap hit my foot at the wrong angle and the shoe did not fit properly. However, as long as this shoe fits so nicely I will order more just to have extra shoes down the road.

I now own this shoe in 3 colors. It is very comfortable, I never even think about them once they are on my feet. I wear an orthotic, and it fits fine in the shoe.

This is a fantastic shoe! Cute, comfortable, and I can wear it to work or with jeans. I wear it with or without socks. One of the most comfortable casually dressy shoes I've ever had.

I ordered a 7 1/2 instead of an 8 because the 8 wasn't available in wide and in blue. I'm glad I did because the shoes fit well, so well that I wore them 2 of 3 days at a conference where I stood 6 hours and walked upward of 7 miles. What a wonderful surprise. If it had had a higher more supportive arch these shoes would be perfect.

Super comfortable shoe. I have a wide foot, and the 6W (I sometimes have to go up to a 7 to gat a shoe that is comfortable enough in width) fits perfectly. The strap ending is a little wide for my taste, but I like the shoes very much.

I love this shoe! So comfortable!! I did have to buy a half size down, though. I usually wear a 9 N but it was too big, so ordered an 8.5 N and it's perfect!! Petra is a lot more comfortable that the Parker. I have both. The openings on the Parker hurt my feet even with socks. So... I highly recommend the Petra!!

From the moment I put these on they were comfortable. The strap is easy to adjust and the strap itself is soft and comfortable. The style can easily be worn with slacks or a skirt. The little swirls etched in the leather add a nice touch. The shade of brown is light enough that you can easily tell it is brown ... not the really dark brown that looks almost like black. I purchased my usual size and it was fine.

Very comfortable with no break-in time needed. Very cute style. It's always a challenge finding shoes that are comfortable on both of my feet, so when I find quality brands that are well-made with cute styling, I tend to stick with them. My current brands are Rockport's Cobb Hill, Wolky and Taos.

I bought 4 pairs of Mary Janes to test out for a trip to Europe. This pair was the winner, over an Aravon, Merrell and Hush Puppy. Luckily they were the cutest as well, with some silver and stamped leather design. They are very comfortable, the strap does not aggravate a bony bump in my midfoot arch, and should do well for city walking when I want a little dressier look (going to Ireland and Amsterdam so will be wearing hiking boots a lot but need something appropriate for the city). so far I've worn them around work all day a few times and the feet feel good. I'll try to update after days of touring.

I bought two pairs of these and love how they look and feel. I ordered a 8 and 1/2 wide which is my size and they fit true to size. I wish Rockport would make them in more colors.

Love the shoe I have very narrow feet that are difficult to find shoes that feel good. Unfortunately this shoe in 8 1/2 N was too wide in the toe box and strap did not improve the fit.

I find these shoes to be comfortable for moderate walking, such as shopping or sightseeing. I think they look dressier than most other styles that have this level of comfort. I have them in black as well as the brown and enjoy wearing them.

Very comfortable out of the box. I like the Velcro strap to adjust the fit. I wanted a casual shoe a little dressier than my usual slip-on sneakers, and these were exactly what I was looking for.

Very comfortable shoe, runs close to size, perhaps a tiny bit small, but I'm wearing my usual 7.5 comfortably with very thin socks. Would definitely recommend for comfort!
