Buy some Red Wings, they kick butt. People will think you are a redneck for wearing shoes like that, but the hell with people.

Ecco, Mephisto and Clarks are pretty good, Finn Comfort for sandals, perhaps some black New Balance walking shoes.

Rockport does not make as good a product as they once did, shame really. What exactly are your symptoms?

Your best bet would be to go to a reputable running shoe store, purchase some Superfeet(that is a brand name, about $30), SOF or Sorbathane insoles, get a good pair of black leather walking shoes(avoid Nike, they are not biomechanically sound, by and large) and replace the insole that came with the shoe with theone you just bought.

I can pretty much guarantee that your Achilles tendon is tight, given your line of work, that will cause all sorts of problems.
