Description

The Ridgefield Eureka combines the comfort of a walking shoe with the look of an everyday casual-so you never have to compromise. With San Crispino construction for heel stability, generous collar and tongue padding, removable footbed, and a Strobel construction build for forefoot flexibility. Rockport has always been one step ahead of the times, believing the perfect shoe has not yet been invented. This positive dissatisfaction compels them to constantly improve upon their footwear. Founded in 1971, they were the first company to use advanced athletic technologies in casual shoes to achieve lightweight comfort, and the first company to engineer walking comfort in dress and casual shoes.

  • Eureka! A comfortable shoe!
Size: 9.5 X-Wide Color: Brown
At a certain point in life, a man reaches a deeper understanding. A viewpoint that permanently alters his worldview, and makes him question all that came before. This can happen slowly, as experience and knowledge grows, and ultimately crystalizes around a kernel of this new perspective. Or it can happen suddenly, in an epiphany of recognition that forces a foundational frame of reference adjustment. Yesterday I experienced the latter, and I wanted to share it in case any of you have yet to reach a similar point. As enter the fall of life, I feel compelled to offer this new personal world order in the hope that you may benefit longer than I will likely enjoy. While this change thunder-struck me suddenly yesterday, some background will help put the revelation in proper context. It all started with the bankruptcy of Sears. Sears engaged in a foolhardy acquisition strategy during the 1980's of retail and non-retail businesses that would be completely undercut by the digital revolution of the 1990's. The debt accumulated from these various acquisitions would drag on company financial statements for decades as revenues slowly eroded to online shopping alternatives. Finally, in the face of an unmanageable October 2018 debt payment of $134 million, Sears declared Chapter 11. Eddie Lampert made several attempts to secure funding for a reorganization strategy, but they would all ultimately fail. None of this impacted me until the end of 2019 when the last Sears in Jacksonville closed. At that point I had a shoe problem. For decades I had purchased brown four-hole lace-up suede loafers from Sears. They were a store brand that sold for $30 or $40. I had probably purchased a dozen or more pair of these. I would often buy two or three pair at a time so I wouldn't need to return to the store so often as they wore out. But now Sears and my default shoe choice were gone! Panic ensued. I started searching the internet for the manufacturer of this shoe which I had enjoyed for so many years. The hope was that another distribution channel would emerge, or that a transition to online sales could be found. No luck. So at the dawn of COVID-19, I was facing an existential shoe crisis. It was about March 2020 when my last trusty Sears loafers were at end-of-life. Most real world retail was shuttered, and supply chain disruption was in full force. There were no shoes to buy. Finally, a local Rack Room reopened and I scoured the shelves for a suitable replacement. I eventually settled for a deck style shoe that was only mildly stylistically objectionable, but seemed acceptably comfortable as one of the very few models offered in wide width. For nearly two and a half years this daily worn (weekday) pair of shoes sustained me. Last week I was forced back to the retail experience for a hopefully improved selection of casual shoe options. Did I find an improved post-COVID selection? Hell no, I did not! It was WAY worse. There were no wide offerings at all! Three shoe store visits left me cursing the pathetic state of IRL retail, and the stupid business people who were essentially forcing me to shop online. So home to Amazon I went, with the name of an untried shoe brand and model seen in a store. It was a pleasing looking set of footwear that I was going to gamble might be suitable. And the size variety available on Amazon was breathtaking. All the sizes I was familiar with, that were completely missing from any store, were available with a click. I don't know when stores decided that they couldn't offer size selection. They certainly did in the 1970's! How did they lose that ability? Anyway, shoes selected and ordered online with delivery anticipated in a couple days. Fine. Ladies and gentleman, this is it. These Rockport Oxford Eureka Walking Shoes are THE most comfortable shoes I have ever owned...bar none. I am gobsmacked by how comfortable these shoes are. Eureka is right! I think back to pre-Rockport me and shake my head in sorrow. Poor fella. Stuck in a rut of frugally driven brick-and-mortar retail based consumption resulting in the bare minimum of utility. Not even guessing about the possibility that such a paradigm shift could be out there. Who knows what might have been if that version of me had found these shoes earlier? Years of an improved outlook on life is the most obvious missed opportunity. Perhaps he would have turned to philanthropy? Trying to engineer life improvements for those around him in an effort to induce similar outlook-altering reactions in society's less fortunate? I literally skipped around the house yesterday sharing the good news with my family. I haven't skipped since a 1973 visit to Cedar Point with my Aunt Fran. Eureka my friends. Eureka indeed. If you're in need, I beg you to give these shoes a try. If I can convince just one of you, then this lunchtime prose will have been worth it. Edit: Two year update on durability - These spectacular shoes have been part of my workday fit for two years now. No major durability issues to report. The highest wear was on the insole. The soles still have quite a bit of life, and are still well attached to the uppers. One black pair I bought has fully thrown their insoles, and the brown pair have significantly worn insoles. I still feel that this wear pattern is above average compared to my past shoe purchases. So much so, I just ordered another pair of both black and brown Rockport Oxford Eureka Walking Shoes. Love 'em, and looking forward to the fresh kicks! ... show more

  • Comfortable and attractive.
Size: 10.5 Color: Brown
I purchased the dark brown in size 10.5. My shoe size ranges from 9.5 to 10.5 depending on the brand and style, so I have had mixed results ordering shoes online but these fit perfectly. I bought them because I needed a walking shoe and have heard good things about the Rockport brand, but these are also nice enough to be an "everyday" shoe and can even be worn in an office with a more casual / business casual dress code. They are comfortable to wear all day. The shoelaces are also durable and sturdy, so they seem like they will last awhile. The color is also accurate. It is a darker brown and therefore can be worn with slacks or jeans and looks pretty good with both. These shoes also seem slightly narrow so they are not clunky like some can be, but this might mean that those with wide feet might need a wider size or a wider shoe. The only minor complaint would be that the tongue of the shoe is a bit long, and can be a bit hard at first. However, I think with more frequent wear this won't be an issue. ... show more

  • Look great, mostly comfortable
Size: 10.5 X-Wide Color: Black
Great looking shoes. I bought them so I could wear them while I am lecturing a 3-hour class so I would have something comfortable and something that would look good with black jeans, khakis, or slacks. They definitely work in terms of their look. As for their comfort, they are a little binding above the ankle which I'm hoping gets better over time as I wear the shoes. The leather is a bit stiff around the tongue which is the main issue. Otherwise they fit well and they are fairly supportive. I'd recommend with the option to consider a return if the fit isn't right for you. ... show more

  • Great shoes but you might want to go with the wider on.
Size: 10.5 Wide Color: Black
Very comfortable shoe. If your shoe size is between regular and wide get the wide version with this one. I ususally wear a 10 regular but with some brands I find the wide is a better fit.

  • These are not the shoes I used to buy
Size: 9.5 Wide Color: Black
I've been working in retail for about 16 years. But the past 10 of them I've been buying this model of Rockport shoes. I've done so because they fit my feet well, don't leave me with sore feet at the end of the day and because they fit in with my company's dress code which mandates black leather shoes. Despite not being dress shoes, with leather uppers, they look nice and hold up to use. So I've gotten away with not wearing more business oriented shoes. Plus, they've always been a fairly high quality brand. A pair used to go for around 75 dollars. Note that I take care of my shoes, including occasionally washing them with saddle soap and polishing them with shoe polish to protect against winter wet and the salt that my locality uses to keep the outdoor paths safe to walk on. Given that I'm on my feet and moving for almost my entire day, I give my shoes quite a workout. On average, they last about a year until my idiosyncratic way of walking ends up wearing out the seam between the sole and the upper and the leather splits. Occasionally the upper pulls away at the toe, though that's not a common failure. Either way, by that point the soles are usually pretty worn from walking on commercial carpet and concrete, so I don't have a problem with spending the money to replace them. Fast forward to a couple month ago. My last pair wore out after about 9 months, which was a bit faster than normal. I paid it no mind and ordered two pair of these shoes to replace them. They were on sale so it seemed to be a good deal. I'm regretting that decision because the first pair I wore barely lasted two months before the glue holding the soles to the uppers completely failed and the whole toe on the right one pulled away from the sole. On the left one, the sole was pulling away on the left side so that you could easily insert a finger into the gap. I was shocked. I've never had shoes fail so quickly. The glue used to hold the sole to the upper should not fail so dramatically in such a short amount of time... or at all. I ended using "Shoe Goo" to try to repair them, but that is not a long term solution and it's not something I should have had to do, especially after only 2 months! I figured I must have gotten a bad pair or something so I've been wearing the second pair since the first pair gave out because I needed to let the Shoe Goo cure. It's been about a month now and the second pair is ALSO showing signs of the sole pulling away from the upper. In other words, this is not a one off case. Two pair bought at the same time both failing in such a short time? Clearly there has been some effort to cheap out on the manufacture of these shoes. Bottom Line: I highly recommend looking for other shoes and avoiding these. I'm super disappointed because this model Rockport has been my go-to walking shoe for a decade. Now I have to go to a shoe store and try to find a high quality replacement. It's a bother. Not only that, I've been ripped off. I have two pair of these shoes that I spent a lot of money on that won't even last half a year combined. Yeah. Definitely avoid these. It's a shame that companies screw their loyal customers this way. ... show more

  • These are almost, pretty much, just about, nearly 75% good.
Size: 13 Color: Black
First of all, I'm a walker. I live near my office and frequently walk to / from work, grocery, etc. I enjoy it. Walking provides me with a sense of freedom, of being unconfined and the health benefits I derive from walking remain beyond mind-boggling. I'm 6' and about 205 lbs. In any given month, I walk about 130 miles. Anyone who walks any appreciable amount knows that not just any shoe will hold up for long under that kind of regular use. This shoe is NOT made of top or full grain leather as shown in the photo on Amazon's product page. It's construction is of bonded leather fabric; this is leather like particle board is wood. It has the look and feel of plastic because technically it is. When I first got them, I tried to use a shea leather conditioner to improve flexibility and weatherproofing, but it didn't absorb at all (due to the fact that bonded leather is 50% or more plastic polymer). Upon initial use, the shoe felt boxy, a bit over-sized, and inflexible. I'd also recommend you get a replacement cushioned insole as the one provided is inadequate for any use. I've had the shoes for about three weeks now. I have walked about 75 miles in them and there are many redeeming qualities worthy of mention. Their appearance / shape / form seem to be holding up nicely. The shoes look well enough I guess. They fit a classic, conservative profile with styling suitable for jeans, khakis, or business casual...the look that Ports are traditionally known for. Initially, the shoes chafed my feet mainly in the toe box area, but after a short while, they broke in rather nicely and have achieved a degree of comfort that makes the shoe more enjoyable to wear especially during a long walk. The soles are lower profile and relatively firm which makes walking them in them feel more sure-footed especially when walking uphill, downhill, or on slanted or uneven sidewalks. The lower profile soles also produce less stress on the ankle joints. Sole wear is a huge deal for anybody who walks a lot. Any sole will wear out over time, but even wear is critical to using a pair of shoes to their natural end. These seem to be holding up fairly well - with mild but noticeable wear in the heels - after about 75 miles, although it will be interesting to see what kind of shape they are in some months down the line. I will stop in and give an update after I've had them a bit longer. Like I said earlier, I walk a lot and I bought these because they are presented as walking shoes. Keep in mind that I rate the shoe a 3 based on the purposes for which I use them. I also realize that most people don't walk 75 miles in a year, never mind three weeks. So, for your own purposes with more ordinary or average use, these would probably be a very reliable and long-lasting shoe. ... show more
