FAQs
Are the Rieker Munzi Tex trainers fully waterproof?
They feature a water-repellent TEX membrane, which provides protection against moisture and rain, but they are not categorized as fully waterproof for submersion.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
No. Machine washing can damage the suede material and the TEX membrane. Please spot clean only.
What is the best way to store the trainers?
Store them in a well-ventilated, dry area away from direct sunlight or radiators to preserve the materials.
How do I ensure the correct fit?
Ensure your heel is set firmly back in the shoe and use the laces to achieve a comfortable, secure tension across the arch.
Is the sole suitable for walking on ice?
While the shoes provide good traction for daily urban use, they are not specialized anti-slip footwear for icy or hazardous conditions.
Troubleshooting
Water spots or light stains on suede
Use a specialized suede eraser or a dry, soft-bristle brush to buff the affected area in a circular motion.
Difficulty putting the shoe on
Ensure the laces are fully loosened; the elastic scuba collar is designed to stretch, but proper initial loosening helps the heel pass through.
Reduced water repellency over time
Reapply a high-quality water-repellent spray designed for footwear to refresh the exterior protective barrier.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these shoes utilize a combination of suede and specialized synthetic materials, proper care is crucial for longevity. Before the first wear, apply a suede-specific water-repellent spray to provide an extra layer of protection against dirt and moisture. To clean the surface, use a soft-bristle brush to gently remove dried mud or dust. Avoid fully submerging the shoes in water or using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can compromise the integrity of the TEX membrane and the suede finish. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources to prevent the material from drying out or losing its shape.
