I'd heard about Rockports for quite some time and was excited to finally be ordering a pair, since I walk as much as 10 miles a day.

Imagine my disappointment, then, when I put on the shoes and -- due to surprisingly "cheap" stitching in the upper -- felt like the top of my foot was rubbing against sandpaper :(.

The sole/ball region of the shoe seemed okay, nothing amazing.  But I couldn't stand the uncomfortable upper, and that's not something that's gonna "break in."

Sadly returning these shoes...
