I did a lot of research on comfortable dress shoes.  I live in a remote area with limited shopping, but I was able to try a few name brands on and I could not find anything that looked dressy and was still comfortable.  Rockport was the highest recommended reasonably priced yet comfortable dress shoes.  So, I knew what I was looking for.  After looking at all my options here on Amazon I just picked these.  I ordered them at 6am on a Tuesday.  Amazon guaranteed I would receive them by Thursday.  They were delivered on Wednesday night!  I have had them for a few months now and I am still very happy with them.  They are comfortable and look good too.
