Is the Eastland Newport good for wide feet?

Yes, it comes in EE width and owners say it is roomy once your foot is in. The opening is snug at first, so wide-footed buyers may need to work the shoe on.

Is the Newport waterproof?

Owners wear it in rain and snow and describe it as waterproof. The leather upper and stitched construction keep water out in normal wet-weather use.

How does the Newport compare with other leather slip-ons?

Its Opanka stitching makes it more flexible and lighter than many cemented slip-ons, and the removable footbed adds cushioning. Rivals often have a solid footbed but less give in the sole.

Can I replace the footbed?

Yes, the cushioned footbed is removable. Note that it rests on a perforated sole, so a replacement should be thick enough to keep the holes from pressing through.

What is the Newport best used for?

It works for everyday wear at the office, in the garden, on light trails and in wet weather. It is a casual slip-on, not a hiking or safety shoe.

How much does the Newport weigh?

About 12 oz in size 8.5 EE, which is light for a leather slip-on.
