Full details
These Rieker low shoes are designed for adult men seeking comfortable, easy-to-wear footwear for everyday use and long walks. The key benefit is the combination of lacing and a zipper for a secure yet simple fit, alongside a lightweight, flexible sole and extra width for enhanced comfort.

FAQs
What makes these shoes suitable for long walks?
The combination of a lightweight and flexible CM-EVA+Rubber sole, a padded and removable insole, and extra width in the forefoot are all designed to provide superior comfort and support during extended periods of walking.
How do I put on or take off these shoes easily?
The shoes feature a clever combination of lacing for a custom fit and a zipper for quick and easy on-and-off functionality. Once laced to your preference, you can simply use the zipper for removal and re-wearing.
Can I wear my own insoles with these shoes?
Yes, the shoes come with a removable insole, which means you can easily take it out and replace it with your own custom orthotics or preferred insoles for personalized comfort and support.
What does 'Width: H' mean?
Width 'H' indicates that the shoe is designed with extra width, particularly in the forefoot area. This provides more freedom of movement and comfort for individuals with wider feet.
What material is the sole made of?
The sole is constructed from a combination of CM-EVA and Rubber, which contributes to its lightweight, flexible, and comfortable properties.
Are these shoes waterproof?
The product description does not specify waterproof features. They are designed for general wear and comfort and are not intended for use in heavy rain or wet conditions.
What is the heel height?
The heel height is approximately 42.9mm.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight despite lacing
Ensure the zipper is fully lowered before lacing. Utilize the extra width feature by loosening the laces significantly in the forefoot area. If discomfort persists, consider removing the insole for a slightly more spacious fit or consult shoe fitting specialists.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it's still stiff, apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or a specialized zipper lubricant to the zipper teeth. Avoid forcing the zipper, as this can cause damage.
Insole feels uneven or shifts
Ensure the insole is correctly positioned and fully seated within the shoe. If it continues to shift, it may require a custom orthotic or a non-slip insole liner.
Reduced grip on smooth surfaces
The CM-EVA+Rubber sole is designed for comfort and flexibility. For improved grip on very smooth or wet surfaces, consider applying a thin layer of rubber sole grip spray or using after-market sole grips.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Easy to put on and take off due to the zipper and lace combination.
- Superior comfort for extended wear thanks to the padded insole and flexible sole.
- Accommodates wider feet comfortably with the extra forefoot width.
- Lightweight construction reduces foot fatigue during long periods of activity.
- Versatile brown color suitable for casual and smart-casual outfits.
Cons
- May not be suitable for individuals with very narrow feet.
- The 42.9mm heel height might be a consideration for those preferring a completely flat shoe.
- Sole material (CM-EVA+Rubber) may offer less grip on extremely slippery surfaces compared to specialized footwear.
- Removable insole is a pro for some, but if not designed for, might shift for others.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These shoes require no assembly. Simply lace them to your preferred tightness and use the zipper for quick adjustments or removal.
Compatibility: Suitable for adult men with a standard to wide foot width (H). The removable insole makes them compatible with many custom orthotics. They are designed for general everyday wear and light walking.
Care: To maintain the condition of your Rieker shoes:
- Cleaning: Wipe the exterior with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water.
- Insole: The insole can be removed and spot-cleaned with mild soap and water. Ensure it is completely dry before reinserting.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to prevent material degradation. Use shoe trees if storing for extended periods.
