FAQs
What is the main advantage of the dual closure system?
The dual closure system (lacing and zipper) provides a secure, customized fit and offers the convenience of quick and easy on-and-off functionality.
Can I replace the insole with my own orthotics?
Yes, the insole is removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics or preferred insoles for enhanced comfort and support.
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
Yes, these shoes are designed with extra width in the forefoot area (fitting H) to provide more freedom of movement for wider feet.
What is the heel height?
The heel height is approximately 42.9mm.
How should I clean these Rieker shoes?
Wipe the shoes with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or submerging them in water. Allow them to air dry naturally if they get wet.
What type of sole do these shoes have?
They feature a sole made from a combination of CM-EVA and rubber, designed to be very light and flexible.
What occasions are these shoes best suited for?
Their versatile design makes them suitable for everyday wear, long walks, travel, and casual or semi-casual outings.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Apply a small amount of wax (like a candle or lip balm) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Gently work the zipper up and down to distribute the lubricant.
Shoes feel too tight in the forefoot.
Ensure the laces are loosened sufficiently before zipping. If the issue persists, the 'H' width may still be insufficient; consider trying a wider fitting model if available or consult a shoe specialist.
Insole is uncomfortable or needs replacement.
The insole is designed to be removable. You can replace it with a preferred aftermarket insole or orthotic. Ensure the replacement fits snugly without bunching.
Material appears dull or scuffed.
Use a neutral-colored shoe polish or cream specifically designed for leather or synthetic materials, following product instructions. For minor scuffs, a soft cloth may suffice.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: The shoes are designed for adult male wear. The removable insole allows for compatibility with most standard-width custom orthotics.
Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of your Rieker shoes:
- Cleaning: Wipe the exterior with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or soaking the shoes.
- Drying: If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Stuffing with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
- Insole Care: The removable insole can be hand-washed with mild soap and water and air-dried completely before reinsertion.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe bag or their original box to protect them from dust and damage.
