These shoes started out excellent but after wearing them for a few weeks, they look worn out very quickly - they scruff up very easily while the color fades. Also these are the kind of shoes where the leather looks wrinkly.
They went from shoes I could wear to work to something I only wear while running errands.
As for comfort and fit, these shoes are very good, as Rockports usually are.

Very lightweight and very ugly. You gain 15 years in appearance putting these shoes on. Finish scuffs easily, lace pattern does not secure foot, stock laces come undone every 10 minutes. Very poorly designed product.

Like other Rockport shoes, these are a solid option for business-casual events or resort wear. The sole is comfortable but not grippy, and the cushioning in the midsole is the standard memory foam offered on other Rockport shoes. Style-wise, they're fashionable, but have the "cheap" appearance that plagues all Rockport shoes. The leather feels good inside and out, but looks fake. Overall, a 4-star shoe.

I like these so much I purchased them in Grey too! In one word “versatile”. I’ve worn these with a suit, they are also great with jeans.

These shoes are very comfortable and have a good style. From a length perspective, they fit my size 14 foot perfectly, and they are roomy in the toe area while a little narrower through the top of the foot and heel. My foot is a "true" 14, so shoes generally end up being a little short in the toe area, but not these. I ended up putting an orthotic insole in them to add some arch support and have the toe fit be a little tighter. Walking in them feels very soft, and the ankle area has a nice stretch fabric that makes the shoes grip your ankle without cutting or rubbing. Overall, a great purchase for a casual professional look.

The shoes are terrific! My 15 yr. old son selected them as an everyday shoe. He really likes the extra heel cushioning; the overall comfort; and laid-back style that’s stylish enough to wear to dinner out, or at the skate park. Nice job, Rockport!

I have narrow feet so these were too wide. They also seemed to run a full size too big. I wear a 12 and should order an 11 in these shoes.

They were true to size. They fit great and are light and comfortable. The shoe is the exact look and color I wanted.

Good looking shoes, but I would recommend ordering a half size to a full size smaller than usual

The only reason this got 4 stars instead of 5 stars is the color shown is darker than the actual color of the shoes (I ordered the dark shadow leather, which is actually a medium-dark gray). Other than that, the shoes look great, are very comfortable, and very stylish. The only thing better than the shoes is the fantastic customer service I got from Zappos!

If you have a high instep, those are not the shoes for you. The laced portion of the shoe is short, and the band at the bottom of the opening, can cut into the instep. (Also strange that Zappos did not have my size, but amazon did.)

These look amazing. This is the 2nd color for my husband. The best dressy casual look and comfy too. If you get a wide you may want to size down 1/2 size.

Usually Rockports are consistent with their sizing. I found these shoes a half size larger than my previous Rockports of the same size.

This is a good looking and stylish shoe. I typically wear a 9M in a business or casual shoe. I ordered Zaden Plain Toe Oxford in sizes 9M and 9.5M, color Navy Nubuck. I kept the 9M. Versatile shoe to wear to the office, meetings, around town, with khakis, jeans, or shorts. Will order this shoe in black and pewter as it's very comfortable to wear all day.

Great value for a comfortable, yet stylish shoe! I normally wear a 9M in dress or casual shoes and the 9M fit perfectly. The 9.5M was too big.

I wear size 9.5 in Asics & Altra, size 9 in dress shoes (typically) and have a narrow foot. I ordered size 9.5 and my foot was swimming in it. Given that I intend to wear these without socks I ordered size 8.5 and the length is good, but now it's just a bit narrow (as you would expect), but that's not a problem due to the toe box material being so flexible. No break-in required. Will be keeping.

Fit was spot on and even the width is good. The son for whom these were purchased has quite wide feet and we were both a bit hesitant but liked the price and the aesthetics. Rockport got it right with these.
