Rockport Men's Perth

Comment

You do not buy these kind of shoes for superior arch support. You buy them for comfort, casual wear. They are made extremely well and last forever. These are my second pair....but the first pair lasted me almost 10 years and I wore them a lot. I answered No" on the arch support question because its excellent for these kind of shoes, but its not a shoe (and no shoe like this, should be worn for arch support); but these are not the kind of shoes one should be buying for "good or excellent arch support"! Others may differ with my opinion.

Rockport Perths have been my go to work shoe for a long time. Fit and finish are normally excellent and they have proven very durable. One nice thing is that my feet have almost no callus after wearing these for years, as the soft sole and upper seems to have eliminated the tendency my feet had for forming calluses when wearing regular leather hard soled shoes. However, when new, the leather gives off some dye and one should be careful about wearing any light colored socks until the shoes are broken in. Also, I find I need to use foot spray to keep them sweet over time.

Ive been buying this specific shoe for many years. I know my size. The size I asked for arrived swiftly; however, this time theyre too short for comfort. Someone goofed up (including me for not returning item immediately) in the manufacture of sizing length. May be if I wear them barefoot a great (uncomfortable) deal this summer-- they will stretch some.

Have been buying Perth boat shoes for years. I have a wide foot with a high instep and these are comfortable right out of the box

Having worn a number of Sperry and LL Bean boat shoes in the past, I can honestly say this is my new all-time favorite pair. I was looking for a pair of boat shoes with that classic look (not the modern, overdone ones like the Sperry Billfish), but with a comfortable sole that I can stand/walk all day in. To top it off, I have rather wide feet, so finding a perfect fit is never easy. These Perths have an incredibly comfortable sole with decent arch support. I can wear them at my standing desk all day and not feel flat-footed or sore in the heels after work, and can walk around town without feeling like Im barefoot. The leather is of very good quality, and it took very little time to break them in, even going sockless my first time wearing them. Im a true fan now, and will absolutely buy another pair once I wear these out -- which may be a long while, as they seem very sturdy and well constructed.
