FAQs
How do I ensure I have the right size?
Always check your UK size specifically, as the packaging may feature Euro or US size labeling which can cause confusion.
Can I replace the insoles?
While the shoes come with a cushioned leather insole, it is generally integrated for comfort; if you require custom orthotics, consult a professional to see if they will fit over or in place of the factory insole.
Are these shoes water-resistant?
While the leather provides some natural protection, they are not waterproof. We recommend applying a leather-safe water-repellent spray if you anticipate walking in damp conditions.
What is the best way to clean the interior?
Use a damp, lint-free cloth to gently wipe the lining and allow the shoes to air dry naturally, away from direct heat sources.
Can these be worn for formal occasions?
Yes, their refined leather finish makes them perfectly suitable for business-casual and most semi-formal dress codes.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty getting the zip to move smoothly
Ensure no laces or inner lining are caught in the zipper track. If it remains stiff, a small amount of clear wax or graphite can help lubricate the teeth.
Shoes feel slightly tight initially
Leather naturally stretches and conforms to the shape of your foot with wear. Ensure the laces are loosened slightly to allow for break-in.
Surface scuffs appearing on the leather
Apply a matching black leather cream or polish to buff out minor scuffs and restore the uniform appearance of the leather.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
When you first receive your shoes, it is essential to verify the fit by trying them on in a standing position to account for foot expansion throughout the day. Please ignore conflicting size markings on the box or labels, as these may reflect US or Euro sizing; the UK size is the primary indicator for this model.
To maintain your Rieker shoes, clean the leather surface regularly with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and dirt. Use a high-quality leather cream or polish to keep the material supple and prevent cracking. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh industrial cleaning agents, as these can damage the leather finish and the structural integrity of the stitching.
