I was looking for a pair of comfy flip flops with a sexy twist and I found them! I normally wear a 7.5 and I got these in an 8. I wouldn't say they are too big, but I think I could have gone with a 7 and this didn't occur to me until after the 4th wear, so obviously not a big deal. They are very comfortable and the glossy gator print gives them a classy look. I'm usually not a fan of the wedge flip flop, but this brand has made me rethink the style. I wouldn't hesitate to buy another pair!

These are absolutely wonderful! A pair of comfortable wedges for nice outing or a Sunday dress. Boating would be a great occasion too! You can't go wrong with these and if you're debating the size go up if you have a wide foot, they take a while to break in! Enjoy them.

I have been using this sandals almost daily since I received them. Went on vacation which involved a lot of walking and I was very comfortable. It gives me the height I need and yet comfortable enough during long walks. Will highly recommend.

Left an old review saying that the metal stud was a no-no for those w/ nickel, or metal allergies. I gave my last pair away for that reason. I loved the shoes couldn't stop thinking about them. Then it hit me! I could bring them to a shoe repair to put fabric between my foot and the metal stud, so I ordered them again. Guess what? Volatile has already fixed the issue and put the material over the stud! Yay! Comfortable an goes with everything, makes the leg look great and dirt cheap! Great for city walkers.

My husband loves these. The usual comfort of a Rockport but with a little extra style of a boat shoe. He put them on immediately and wore them to work all day long.

I wanted buy my father-in-law some new Boat shoes. I simply got his size from him, and typed in Boat shoes in the search engine on Zappos and these came up. I trust the Rockport brand. My granddaddy would always wear these. So I felt confident that my father in law would have good supportive shoes for his diabetic feet. He put them on and has worn them every day since his birthday! He sometimes wears a wide, and since I thought D meant wide I kind of messed up, but he says they are working fine, and he didn't need to return them. I am very happy with the shoes and will definitely order Rockports again from Zappos.com.

I bought these for my husband for Father's Day and he loved them. He had another style from this company that had been discontinued, so I went with these and he finds them to be very comfortable and likes the look.

I find these to be the most comfortable boat shoes by far. This is my second pair - my first lasted for years.

I find this shoe very comfortable and with the tie, very accommodating of my width and occasional swelling.

Soft leather, not much support. Great for older person, perhaps if you have feet that need room. Good heel strike pad but no arch support.

Shoes are only worn indoors and stitching came loose after less than a year.

I ordered these shoes for my father. He has limited mobility so I was hoping for something comfortable and easy to slip on. These are great - he's often hard to please but he LOVES these shoes. They do go on easy but they also give good support, and to top it all off they look great! I knew I could count on Rockports - my son the lawyer who is on his feet all the time swears by his. Great shoes.
