It's been a long time since I've had Rockports shoes, the only bladder I've ever had was a pair of Rockport chukkas. I thought these would be good casual Friday loafers, but they're too casual for that - like they're not fully formed, they lack structure. Seems to be an odd product, almost like it's not entirely Rockport - do knockoffs match shoes? Anyway, I only use them at home when I need shoes, for example to take the trash cans to the curb. I can't imagine ever wearing them in public.
