The shoes arrived fine, new box, right on time.  I tried them on (without socks or stockings) walked around the house and took them off.  To my surprise, I noticed my feet were all black from the inside of the shoes.  It looked like I still had the shoes on.  I became concerned because I had to scrub the "dye" off my feet. I then looked inside the shoe and saw they were made in China.  I was very concerned.  I returned the shoes without any problems.  Rockport use to make shoes from Brazil, but now it seems they are from China.  I always liked Rockport, but I doubt if I will buy from them again.
