@Toulouse42 over here we have a brand called Skechers that are great....at first. Then the insoles just die. While the shoes are still comfortable in general the support is gone, leading to foot pain. I have found that upgrading insoles can have a dramatic effect in a positive way. Work boot insoles tend to last the longest. Keen, Timberland Pro Design and Carolina are brands I prefer. Each about $25 US. Perhaps try some work boot insoles.
You mentioned Rockport shoes. If you can find their insoles, those are great too. Especially adiprene. The adiprene insoles shoes I showed in the original post held up for 5 years. They were still good but the stitching in the shoes began to disintigrate due to the life they lived. Motor oil, radiator coolant, transmission fluid, gasoline spilled on them while working on cars plus walking mile after mile in junkyards while acquiring used parts for said cars took its toll. But at the end of the day my feet weren't complaining.
