Very pleased with these shoes. My second Rockports and first slip-ons, the Adiprene makes them feel like trainers, but they look a little more formal than that, though there's detailing and an 'r' icon on the heel that makes them less than really formal. They are fine for 'business casual', I wear them for work. Only issue is due to the various comfy padding they may get a little warm in not climates, but that's an advantage when it's cooler of course.
