FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
They feature RiekerTEX technology, which makes them highly water-resistant, protecting your feet in wet weather, though they are not marketed as fully submersible waterproof boots.
How should I clean the exterior?
Use a soft damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. Avoid harsh soaps or chemicals that could damage the water-resistant coating.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, if you require specific arch support, you can usually replace the existing insole with your own orthotic version.
What is the benefit of the padded shaft edge?
The padded edge provides extra cushioning around your ankle, which prevents rubbing and discomfort when the boot flexes during walking.
How do I maintain the RiekerTEX layer?
Apply a textile-friendly waterproofing spray periodically to maintain the water-repellent properties of the outer fabric.
What is the heel height exactly?
The heel is 43.9mm, providing a comfortable, slight lift.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or sticks
Apply a tiny amount of candle wax or specialized silicone zipper lubricant to the teeth to improve movement.
Boots feel damp inside after heavy rain
Ensure they are allowed to air dry completely by stuffing them with newspaper to absorb excess moisture before the next use.
Laces constantly come undone
Use a double knot or consider replacing the laces with a slightly more textured set to improve friction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Rieker boots last, start by adjusting the laces for your preferred tension when you first receive them. For ongoing care, clean the exterior with a soft, damp cloth to remove salt or dirt after use, particularly after walking on gritted winter roads. To maintain the integrity of the RiekerTEX water-resistant layer, apply a waterproofing spray specifically designed for synthetic and textile footwear every few months. Avoid drying the boots near direct heat sources like radiators, as this can cause the materials to stiffen and crack. Store in a cool, dry place when not in use for extended periods.
