When I read your comment about Superfeet I pulled a pair out of some old boat shoe and tried them in the oxfords. It is a significant improvement. I just ordered two more pair of Superfeet. I appreciate your suggestion. <br />I like Quoddy and have several different styles but none are great walking shoes.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8714922182513339530.post-70171295017350177262019-10-28T09:31:18.564-04:002019-10-28T09:31:18.564-04:00I found the same with their boat mocs.

It gives plenty of support and you can get a variety of configurations for flat feet, high arches, etc. I can't wear them without the insoles.<br /><br />Aiken Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8714922182513339530.post-32067933572439207722019-10-27T20:11:19.589-04:002019-10-27T20:11:19.589-04:00Got a pair of each color with lighter color soles....Got a pair of each color with lighter color soles. The pictures are well done, as usual but I am reminded of my lifetime, it seems, inability to consistently find khakis with the "look" in the pictures.<br />The cut, the color, the sizing and my shape change from one purchase to another and that age old problem of changes occurring after laundering frustrate me. Great pics, tho.

I find them very comfortable because I prefer a more minimalist moc. I buy them slightly snug and the Chromexcel stretches out over a few weeks of wear to a perfect fit. Quoddy will resole and repair them, but eventually the uppers give out.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8714922182513339530.post-8146489130874575632019-10-27T08:59:32.720-04:002019-10-27T08:59:32.720-04:00I bought my Men's Maliseet Oxford in a nearly ...I bought my Men's Maliseet Oxford in a nearly identical configuration, except that I substituted the rugged Vibram sole. They are handsome and generally comfortable shoes. My primary issue with Quoddys in general is that the soles on all my Quoddys are lacking in support and rigidity. I find my Rancourt equivalents to be better for walking, and with even better construction. The Rancourt Baxter Ranger-Moc in particular is a rugged, comfortable, handsome, and extremely versatile shoe. I confine my Maliseet Oxfords to wear when I expect to do less walking on hard surfaces.Gineaudnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8714922182513339530.post-74326954963374987362019-10-27T08:33:19.655-04:002019-10-27T08:33:19.655-04:00Had a pair of Bean Bluchers for a few months - had...Had a pair of Bean Bluchers for a few months - had to send them back to excessive "squeaking" when worn.charles greshamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06154781833371184123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8714922182513339530.post-90876019196368447282019-10-27T08:03:49.354-04:002019-10-27T08:03:49.354-04:00Such a classic shoe.
