Product Information
Full details
The Rieker Hilly trainers are designed for adults seeking a balance between daily comfort and functional style, specifically catering to those who require a more accommodating, extra-wide fit. These trainers stand out for their convenient dual-fastening system and high-quality suede construction, though potential buyers should note that the specific suede material requires diligent maintenance to preserve its appearance compared to smoother synthetic alternatives.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for walking long distances?
Yes, they are designed for regular use, though they are categorized as casual trainers rather than high-performance athletic footwear.
Can I wash these in a machine?
No, machine washing can damage the suede upper and weaken the structural adhesives. Clean by hand only.
How wide is the 'extra-wide' fit?
The extra-wide designation indicates a roomier toe box and increased volume compared to standard Rieker sizing, ideal for those needing more width.
Do I need to use the laces every time?
Once you have adjusted the laces to your desired tension, you can use the side zip for future entry and exit.
Can I replace the insole with my own?
Yes, the insole is removable, making it fully compatible with most standard orthotic inserts.
Troubleshooting
Side zipper becomes stiff or difficult to move
Ensure no fabric is caught in the mechanism; occasionally rub a graphite pencil tip along the teeth to act as a dry lubricant.
Suede appears dull after frequent use
Use a suede eraser or a soft-bristled brush to gently buff the surface in one direction to realign the fibers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Rieker Hilly trainers, keep these maintenance tips in mind:
- Initial Protection: Apply a suede-specific water repellent spray before the first use to shield the material from dirt and light moisture.
- Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to gently lift dirt and restore the nap of the material. Avoid soaking the shoes in water.
- Insole Management: If you utilize custom orthotics, ensure the existing removable insole is extracted before inserting your replacement to maintain proper depth.
- Storage: Keep the shoes in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight to prevent fading of the blue pigment and brittleness in the synthetic components.
