text: The shoes are very comfortable, since Rockport states that they are WaterProof with Hydro-Shield I purchased a second pair right after trying the first order. I was very disappointed that after just about 3-4 weeks of wearing the shoes it's NO longer water proof!? my feet got all wet when walking in regular medium rain (NOT heavy pouring rain),<br />If you only concern is light comfortable shoes go for it, BUT if you don't want your feet to be all wet stay away from it.
