    Rockport boots

    We are going to Orlando at Easter and my youngest son wants new rockports. My question is are they cheaper there or at Ceshire Oaks(at outlet village in the north west) If they are cheaper in Orlando could you let me know where please ....only 8 weeks to go
    Thanks Dorothy

    You'll find Rockport stuff at THE ROCKPORT SHOP in Florida Mall or any of the several RACK ROOM SHOES outlets in and around Orlando and Kissimmee, including one on US192 (4677, Irlo Bronson)

    It figures. Footwear is invariably significantly better value in the USA and both my wife and I regularly buy boots and shoes there. This is even more applicable to 'outdoor' type boots which are not only cheaper, but often much better quality in the US than the increasingly common 'rip-offs' that you encounter at the UK outdoor shops.

    I totally agree with Nostromo

    We always make sure we get our Shoes etc from the US.

    Nike are really good value for money in the US compared to the UK!!

    I bought Rockport boots for my son from the Rockport outlet at the Belz.
    They were alot cheaper than the UK for the latest model of boots.

    M & M sports, a reputable discount sports retailer in the UK, also do Rockports at reasonable prices BUT they have limited sizes/stocks.

    Check their website for prices before you go to Orlando then compare like for like when you get there.

    Rockport are one of the few manufactures who have different width fittings. I have a very broad foot with a high instep which makes shoe buying difficult but I never have any problems with Rockport and buy on every trip
