Like the way this shoe looks and feels, but not for the flat footed heavyweight who slogs through wallmart. Sorry I had to return this classic beauty with ventilation slits and woven top. Had trouble inserting my foot. Seemed smaller than than my size. Thanks for your expedient and costless return policy. I'm still on the hunt, and rarely return anything.

The new collection is not very good - I have bought both 16178 in both colours, one (brown) pair was smaller than my size (I cannot walk longer tracks with them, otherwise that anti-sress system is pretty stressful) and one (black) pair was larger, so I have to use soles and wear thick socks... I think older collections were perfect, I've been buying two Anti-stress Rieker pairs a year for 7 years, but there is something wrong about the last collection... Rieker, make it better the next time!

I have always had trouble finding shoes that fit me comfortably. After many years of daily use, I am finally wearing out my old pair of Rieker shoes, so I bought this new pair, and, once again, Rieker shoes are the most comfortable and durable shoes I have ever owned. They are simply the best.

Rieker Casual Shoe - These are probaly the most comfortable shoes I have ever had. (I am 70 yrs of age) They are however only suitable in warm weather.

I'd buy another pair - Thanks, Zappos, for a website that's navigable, easy to order from, and customer-service driven. I like the Rieker 16178 shoe that I bought. Great fit (my usual size), great look, and the ventilation helps (the shoe is more ventilated than the picture indicates). However, the shoe does takes its toll on my feet when I have to stand for several hours while I work. I bought cushioned implants and they help greatly. I plan to buy another pair of these shoes soon. Merry Christmas! And it's true - Jesus truly is the Answer to those deep, nagging questions.
