I own a wonderful and cute pair of Rockport shoes that seem to release a black dye onto my feet when I wear them for the day. I would like to know how is this to be such a defect? If there is anyone out there who knows of this, then please step up and comment. thank you I have searched the various sites on the internet to help me on this and it seems that all the sites are posted for all sorts of sale items. I have asked at the various shoe stores as to what to do with these shoes and the only reply is to ask Rockport themselves. Now what? I await your reply.
