Product Details
I wanted to try a sneaker from Rockport. I've been buying their shoes for 2 decades, and was curious. These shoes look great, seem to be rugged and well built. They aren't as cushioned as I hoped they would be. They're quite rigid. This provides a nice flat, stable position for the foot, but I tire of them before the end of the day. I have a history of foot problems, so it could just be me. But I have a pair of their "Total Motion" shoes, and they're considerably more comfortable. I got these sneakers on sale for about $40, so I can't really complain. If you're a Prime member use Try Before You Buy.
This was a narrow shoe for my wide feet. I had to change the insert because it felt like I was walking on bricks. The shoe felt hard and heavy. I have owned several Rockport shoes in this was the worst one of all.
I wouldn't have worn them in my 20s cos they are not fancy branded air pumped sneakers. But in my 50s these are the best. In fact I have 2 pairs now.
I bought these shoes for wearing indoors on a concreter floor; they are comfortable, and supportive, and breathe well, so my feet do not get hot. However, in one year the soles are now separating and pealing away!
My Rockport experience is that a need a Wide size for their products. In this case a Standard width would have been fine.
Good product,good value
will buy another
My feet are between 11 and 11.5 so I bought 11.5 and prefer this to too snug. The shoe is light and of good quality. The shoe I chose was $40 and I feel like I stole them. I feel like this shoe will hold up for a long time for this 62 YO retired guy.
