These are probably the best shoe Ive ever had. I had a broken Femur about a year and a half ago!! These are great because they don't slip in water are very stable and give great support!! Another pulse is them come in wide widths. The price is very good for what you're getting. I have a pair of Clarks dress shoes that cost about $300.00, but I prefer the Rockports. Do yourself a favor and get a pair!!!
