I love Rieker boots for their combination of color and style. I saw this in one of my favorite brick and mortar stores so I knew my size. As others stated, it runs a bit large. Unfortunately, I fell in love with another pair of boots as well and only could buy one. I went for the other pair as it was on sale and this one was not. So I was thrilled to come home and find these on Amazon at a much lower price. The blue is perfect imo - different than the usual brown/black/grey but a tone that is suitable for every day wear. I would've given it 5 stars if it wasn't synthetic leather (not that it isn't good quality but I think the price warrants real leather).I found this brand in Prague. I loved them so much i was hoping I could find them in the US. I have to say they don't seem like the same amazing quality that I found overseas but they are still comfy and will work for meFit my usual size. Just as pictured. Really nice.I sent thise back. Seller is lovely. Very helpful. I ordered a smaller size. This was a size 41 which I usually wear in this brand. But it was enormous on me. I ordered the smaller one and hope it fits because I love this brand. It is so comfortable and stylish.Second pair...... love, love, love them....... however NEVER spray with mink oil. The protective spray turned boots black!Beautiful colors. I LOVE THESE BOOTS. SO SO COMFORTABLE AND STYLISH TOO.MANY MANY COMPLIMENTS.Usually wear 39 but ordered 38 because of advice from other reviewers. Good advice. Love the color and design. The boots look great with a variety of outfits.These boots are nice. I don't think they're worth the price though.I'm disappointed with these boots. It's the first time I buy footwear online but people do it all the time, I can't find many options where I'm leaving and I needed a new pair of boots.When I first saw them and tried them I felt in love, very stylish and seemed to be comfortable. After 1-2 weeks using them, I have changed my mind. There are some stains that are impossible to remove (I used a Clarks' cleaning mouse and are still there) and I haven't used them while cooking or using any product, only for going to work. The only thing that fell on them was rain, so I have no clue why are full of marks (see pics).I was happy with their comfort as well, but in my daily routine it wasn't more than 30 min walking/day.I went to Bristol and I wanted to enjoy the city (sightseeing, dinner, etc.) but and I couldn't see the time to take them off, my feet were in pain.I always buy quality footwear (Mustang, Xti, Clark's, etc.), I read good reviews about Rieker and I trusted them. Now I think I made a mistake...Update: the shoe sole has come off! I can't believe I have to buy another pair of boots now. I usually buy boots that last a few yearsThese boots do come up small. I am a size 5/5.5 and 6.5 are a good fit on me. If I wanted to wear them with thick socks, I might even have gone up to a 7. Having said that, size is only a number and I love them. They are a great worn denim colour, light to wear and best of all, a generous shaft paired with a sleek, neat foot to give a really stylish look even if you haven’t got stick thin legs, which I haven’t.Brilliant boots, arrived quickly. Such an unusual colour, giving me the biker style with a feminine touch. Great sole, and perfect heel height. Although not leather, they look incredibly like leather and are soft and supple from the ankle up. Tempted by the blue pair now!I love these boots and as I have swollen feet and ankles most days I didn't think they'd fit but they do. They look as good on as I hoped they would and they are really comfortable. I wouldn't hesitate to buy this brand and style of boot again. For me they are fabulous.Lovely quality, I have a few boots by the same company. They are always well made, look good and are really comfortable. I ordered a size 5 ,as the rest of my boots are this size , the style of them meant these were too big. I exchanged them through Amazon with no problem. I am really impressed with the service and the boot.
