Shoes felt wider than advertised, in fact too wide. I am a B width, so I looked to see if they were a B width and they were.

Well, the shoes...we didn't like. However Zappos...we loved...return service is wonderfully easy and straightforward. And we will definitely keep looking here to find a product we do like. We have a hard to find shoe size in our family and it is wonderful to find a site that is reliable and easy to use. thanks, highly recommended to others.

I have had three pairs of Dunham Midlands before this order, and they always fit well, but the shoes I just ordered were uncomfortable and slipped on my heel. The shoes are stiffer than they used to be, and the heel is wider. Apparently, Dunham is using a different last, and probably a different manufacturer. Shame.

Dunham Windsors still fit well. Also, Rockports are good.

Great looking, well constructed shoe but runs very wide. A 2E is like a normal 4E. too bad Dunham doesn't make an E width.

The shoes appear to be mismatched. The top of one shoe is "wrinkled", the other smooth. Scar very easily. My first Zappo purchase. Unsure about future purchases.

I Ordered 9-4E shoes and found them to be too narrow, in addition the left shoe is smaller than the right! The style is good and the material appears to be top rate so I am returning the shoes and will order 9-6E as soon as they are available
I have been wearing Rockport shoes for years but the newer shoes do not seem to be made as correctly as the earlier versions of the same shoe so I decided to try another brand.

One of the two shoes has a white ring between the rubber sold and the leather. It appears to be a glue that was sloppily applied and not cleaned. I am returning the shoes for a replacement.

Disappointed in shoes. My Dad has worn Rockport's for a number of years. The shoes we received were not the quality of prior Rockports. The craftsmanship was not the same. We are in the process of returning the shoes. I think Rockport needs to look at their recent reviews. We are not the only customer that is disappointed.

I work in transportation as a driver trainer. I am on my feet a lot an these shoes, while they felt good in the store, are not good for standing in for long periods of time and have no real support in them.

It was nice to find a place that sold narrow shoes for men. I needed a black oxford for work and purchased the Dunham Midland Oxford in black. The shoe fits well as is comfortable, except for the height of the shoe at the ankle. I developed a blister on my ankle after wearing them for a week. Because of my size and occupation, that has me on my feet on a hard floor all shift, I've found that the thin sole made from injected materials has a waffled texture you can feel while standing on your feet. The thin in-sole of the shoe doesn't adequately support the sole of my foot. I chose to use inserts for the shoes and they are a little more adequate with the sole inserts...no more blisters on the ankle. I won't buy these shoes for the price they were, again.

These feel like walking on wood logs - no - wait - that would be more comfortable! Seriously, nice width but not comfortable at all, especially for the price!

Look good and comfortable enough. However, after less than a week the left shoe started to creak loudly. Sounds like a duck is following you around and made my cats run away and hide. Zappos was nice enough to take them back.

I was looking for a rugged, comfortable shoe for walking on the rough streets and countryside of Italy. I ordered these because I have a pair of Dunham boots that are good and comfortable for my large, wide foot. I wore these twice here in the states prior to the trip and they felt comfortable enough, so I packed them up for my trip. The first morning I go to put them own in Italy, as I was snugging up the laces, the leather holding an eyelet on each shoe just broke, thus freeing the eyelet from its proper place and making them difficult to lace properly. I wasn't happy! And it's not that I snug my shoes that tight -- I have never had this happen before. Since it happened on the same eyelet on both shoes, I have to assume it is poor design, material, or workmanship. I would not recommend these shoes based on my experience. But of course, Zappos refunded my purchase price, which helps, but I was one pair of shoes short, overseas for two weeks. In short -- Zappos is good, but these shoes aren't.

Very uncomfortable to wear. The insole is not sufficient to cover the defects of an uneven (not flat) sole.

When the shoes arrived one of the eyelets was loose on the shoe string and the hole was torn. Something was stuck to the sole, paper was missing from inside of toes. The box was torn and not packed like Zappos shipments usually are. Very disappointed!

The eyelets broke open and theshoes cant be tied correctly after less than 2 weeks of wear. The material is soft and cheap, not high quality leather I expected from Dunham.

Bought these and a pair of dress shoes both the same size - 8 6E. The dress shoes fit just fine but these were too tight. Could not get the sides with the lase grommet close enough so barely had enough lace to tie the shoe.

The narrow (B) width of the Dunham Midland Oxford Waterproof is not narrow. It is as wide as the regular-width versions of other casual shoes. My feet swim around in this shoe, whereas they are snug in B-width dress shoes. The shoe looks broad, boxy, and clunky. The openings around the ankles seem unusually high: the edges of the openings cut into both ankles with every step.

These shoes squeak horribly. Doesn’t matter what surface I’m walking on, carpet, tile, wood, asphalt concrete, wet, dry, doesn’t matter. They squeak on everything. Actualy, just the left shoe squeaks, the right shoe is fine. Can’t tell a difference between the soles, so haven’t been able to stop the squeak. Also, they are advertised as waterproof, but when I wear them in the rain, the toes of my socks get wet.
On the positive side, they are comfortable and true to size.
I’d never buy another pair.

Rockport and Dunham shoes have minimal options for EXTRA WIDE shoes. I wore Dunhams for years before they were taken over by Rockport. Now they're awful to wear. Ill proportioned and too hot, they don't breathe.

Nice shoes, TERRIBLE laces, TERRIBLE customer service. The laces are round, slick, and will NOT stay tied even if double knotted.
So I emailed Rockport/Dunham to seek resolution: no response. So I called them and was told "nothing we can do" Thay gave me shoe laces retailer website that I could BUY decent laces to go on my $140 shoes.
This is not my first pair of Rockports - I think they are good shoes - but it will be my last.
