Dynamic suspension DMX on the bottom of the footbed provides dynamic air cushioning and sensation.
The CMEVA midsole provides lightweight resilient cushioning for reducing foot and leg fatigue.

For travel, this lightweight, very comfortable shoe can be used any time, but with new travel weight restrictions, it makes a great all-around walker. This is one of the very few clothing items I have that fits.

I bought this shoe to wear on a trip to Europe, hoping to take only one pair of shoes. In wearing it to "break it in," I find that it is lacking in comfort and I can't wait to kick them off after wearing them for a few hours of normal routine, much less walking/sightseeing on my feet. I am disappointed in the product. It is just too hard on the soles of my feet.
love rockports!!!
