In South Africa, December has so many meanings!

It’s the first month of our summer season, it’s the year-end for most businesses, and it’s a time where holiday mode is activated, and people are ready for the holidays.

In saying that, you’ll need the perfect footwear for a number of occasions this season. Whether you are attending a sophisticated year-end function or enjoying a day in the sun with friends - Rockport has the perfect footwear styles to offer you.

Read on to learn about our fun footwear selections for the season!

1. The Casual Yet Chic Sneaker

Our casual sneaker is perfect for those days where you don’t want to look overly dressed up, but still smart. The DMXColby is available in two different colours, cashew/java and black/black, both of which match endless colour palettes.

This trendy sneaker does not only boast a stylish design, but also offers all-day comfort. Engineered with Reebok DMX technologies, you can expect a spring in your step, and impressive cushioning.

Pair this sneaker with cargo shorts, an oversized t-shirt, and of course some bold sunglasses, and you will be ready for a day soaking up the sun.

2. The Perfect Pair of Loafers

Loafers are an all time classic footwear option. This footwear design has been around for years, and made its appearance in various fashion aesthetics such as old money, whimsical, edgy, and the like.

With our Jensen loafers, you can certainly have fun! Experiment and pair them with fun, bold socks. On the other hand, you can rock the classic look by pairing them with loose fitting trousers, a linen button up shirt, and a thin knit sweater draped around your shoulders.

Thankfully, loafers offer so much versatility that you can dress them up and down!

3. Elegant Oxfords

Oxfords always manage to exude charisma and academic charm - and our Rockport oxfords are no exception!

This footwear style is perfect for those semi-formal work events or even a classy date night. Our Fallo Oxford in particular, is the perfect choice. With its stylish broguing and almond shaped toe, this design stands out from the rest!
Pair this with straight leg trousers, a short sleeve polo knit sweater, and statement leather strap watch, and instantly you’ve got the perfect semi-casual outfit.

4. Boots Made for Walking

When it comes to Rockport boots, one thing is true: these boots were certainly made for walking!

And just because it’s summer does not mean that your boots need to go into storage - especially if you are sporting a pair of our Rockport Flynn boots.

This stunning design is perfect for adding a touch of sophistication to any outfit. This design features an adjustable lace-up front, round toe shape and padded collar, making it the perfect footwear for perhaps a wedding that you may be attending or any other formal event.

Different Footwear Styles But Same Comfort Levels

The best part about our diverse range of footwear designs, is that no matter the look you are going for, you never have to compromise on comfort!

Let’s face facts, life can be really busy sometimes! From work to hangouts with friends, conferences to meetings, first dates to the first day of university - life is constantly in motion, and we need to go with the flow.

That’s why, when designing our Rockport range, we wanted to ensure that people can live their lives to the fullest, and never have to worry about footwear pinching your feet, or your heels aching at the end of the day.
