FAQs
What is the primary material of these sandals?
The upper is made from smooth leather, while the sole is crafted from lightweight PU (polyurethane), and the sock lining is textile.
How do I ensure a good fit with these sandals?
These sandals feature a narrow E 1/2 fit and can be adjusted using the hook and loop fastener across the instep to achieve your desired comfort and security.
Are these sandals suitable for everyday wear?
Yes, the shock-absorbing, lightweight sole and comfortable design, including the wedge heel, make them suitable for extended periods of walking and daily wear.
What is the heel height of these sandals?
The sandals feature a comfortable wedge heel with an approximate height of 3.3 cm.
How should I clean the leather upper of the sandals?
For the leather upper, gently wipe with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper cleaning or conditioning, use a leather cleaner and conditioner designed for smooth leather, and allow them to air dry naturally.
Do these sandals offer good support?
The stitchdown construction provides flexibility and durability, while the shock-absorbing sole is designed to offer a pleasant and supportive walking experience.
Are these sandals waterproof?
While the leather offers some natural resistance, these sandals are not designed to be waterproof. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or immersion in water to protect the materials.
Troubleshooting
Sandals feel loose or too tight on the foot.
Utilize the hook and loop fastener to adjust the straps for a secure yet comfortable fit. Experiment with different tensions until you find the optimal feel.
Experiencing discomfort after prolonged wear.
While designed for comfort, ensure the narrow E 1/2 fit is appropriate for your foot type. If your feet are wider, this fit may cause discomfort. Try adjusting strap tension to redistribute pressure points. Consider wearing them for shorter periods initially to break them in.
Leather upper appears dull or scuffed.
Gently wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning or conditioning, use a product specifically designed for smooth leather footwear. Follow the product's instructions for best results.
Squeaking sound when walking.
Sometimes, a squeak can come from air trapped between the foot and the insole or from the sole rubbing against a surface. Try sprinkling a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole (if removable) or ensure the sole is clean and dry.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Setting up your Rieker sandals is straightforward. Simply:
- Unfasten the hook and loop strap(s).
- Slide your foot into the sandal.
- Adjust the hook and loop fastener(s) until the sandal feels snug and comfortable, ensuring your foot is securely held without any pinching or excessive looseness.
Compatibility
These sandals are designed with a narrow E 1/2 fit, which means they are best suited for individuals with slimmer feet. If you typically wear wider footwear, these sandals may feel too tight. The hook and loop fastener allows for some adjustability across the instep, but the overall footbed width remains narrow.
Care
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your sandals:
- Leather Upper: To clean the smooth leather, gently wipe it with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. For deeper cleaning or conditioning, use a leather cleaner and conditioner specifically designed for smooth leather footwear. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water, which can damage the leather. Allow to air dry naturally, away from direct heat.
- PU Sole: The lightweight PU sole can be cleaned with a mild soap and water solution. Use a soft brush or cloth to scrub away dirt, then wipe clean with a damp cloth. Do not immerse the sandals in water.
- Storage: Store your sandals in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to prevent the leather from drying out or fading.
