Rockport's comfortable, classic ballet flat.
I have many pair of Rockport shoes. Adeline Ballet flat shoes are classic, and an attractive shoe design. The fit is good fit and the wide width is adequate for me (I have a wide foot.) I find with the pointed-toe style it is more comfortable for me to size up 1/2 size and they are just right. They have a quality insole, good arch support, and the heel is perfect; "not too low, not too high, just right!" The materials are quality too - you can't go wrong with Rockport Shoes. Oh, and they last for years!

Cut across my toes
I have wide feet, so I got wide width shoes. I love Rockport, but not these! They fit just awful! The top cut right across the top of my toes. It was very painful. I could not wear them all day, and certainly not if I'd have had to walk around. Since I wore them, I felt I couldn't return them, so I gave them away. What a waste. Wear them a little while inside before you put them on to go somewhere. Wish I had!

not really for people with narrow feet, but still classy!
the shoe looked great! i loved how the shoe looked on me. the fit was what i wasn’t a fan of. it might be my fault, but the shoe was slightly too loose (i think because of my narrow feet). however, when i added insoles or something to make the shoe fit a little better the toe box was too tight. so it was too loose and too tight at the same time. the back never slipped though, which i was thoroughly impressed by. the shoe almost sounds like you’re wearing a heel which surprised me at first, so keep in mind if you’re expecting a quieter shoe. all in all, i think it’s a great shoe overall, my feet at just a little funny. LOL !

Tight toe box
First off, let me start by saying I LOVE pointed toe flats. I think they look super classy and elegant. However, with every good thing, comes the bad. Pointy shoes have narrower toe boxes and all of my shoes (all are pointed) squish my toes together. Some shoes are ridiculously tight and others are very comfortable. My current black flats are about a medium tight but have no support. I came across the Rockport brand and was really impressed with their insoles. They do not have arch support, but I was mostly looking for heel support. These do offer a nice cushion for the heal and for the ball of the foot. The leather itself is polished and soft. The soles of the shoe have a pretty decent grip and the entire shoe is made really well. It has clean lines and seams. HOWEVER, the toe box is unbearably tight. I am normally a 6 and depending on the shoe, sometimes the toe box is too tight. I ordered a 6W but there was literally nothing wide about them. I have one pair of leopard flats that I don’t wear ($15) because they are too tight and these fit just like those. For an $89 shoe, I didn’t expect to have that problem. I NEVER buy expensive shoes. I decided to invest in a quality pair, but these are definitely not it. Unless your feet are narrow, don’t get them and even then, order the wide.

Beautiful Pair of High Quality, Long Lasting Flats
These shoes lasted about two years before needing to be replaced! They're very comfortable. They look great with everything from dresses to jeans. Given how long they last and their versatility, I think they're a great value for the cost.

Comfortable pointed toe flats (a rarity) are enough to justify the price
Bought these shoes after having a frustrating day with a pair of Steve Madden nude pointed toe flats which I purchased for about $30. My feet are a little wide, but not wide enough for the wide width (I have a pair of Rockport black pointed toe flats which are 6.5W and a little loose). I decided to open up my wallet for the warm taupe patent Rockport flats, because of my good experience with the previous Rockport pair. While the shoes (being patent) are initially stiff, they actually have gotten more comfortable with time/wear during my errands this morning. The inside of the shoe is well padded for arch support and does not irritate my feet with continued wear. I wish the price was under $100. Still, the comfort level during continued wear justifies its price.7/19/16Second full day of wearing these shoes. First was at grocery store and second at a new job. Unfortunately, I've developed blisters at my heels. For the price, I will check with a cobbler to see if the heels can stretch a little to reduce the sheer force that causes these blisters. If not, they will be donated.
