Great Shoes - This is a replacement for a pair I literally wore ‘til they fell apart. Extremely comfortable, soft leather right out of the box with 0… I repeat 0 break in time.

My husband is very hard to find shoes for as he has a very wide foot. The ones I ordered were just right and he was really happy with them as a Christmas gift. I will order again as they are true to size.

I WOULD TRY THIS BRAND AGAIN, AS IT WAS TRUE TO SIZE FOR SOMEONE THAT IS HARD TO FIT

My husband has a difficult time finding shoes that fit comfortably. His size is 9A. Not all shoes that say they are 9A fit correctly, but these shoes are fabulous. He wears them every day; he is so delighted with them.

This is the second time I have purchased this same shoe, and in fact this time I purchased 2 pair, one in black and the other cordovan. It is a very comfortable shoe true to size and width. I am not able to tie shoes because of arthritis, so this shoe works great for me.

This is perhaps the 5th pair of these shoes that I have owned. I wear them every day. Stylish, comfortable, well-made. Who could ask for more?

Outstanding Dress Shoe - I'm 41 Years Old... I note that I'm 41 as I take pride in buying quality shoes and have been wearing the Florsheim Riva shoe with a suit & tie for 10 years. I had worried it was an "Old Mans" shoe but nothing can be further from the truth. I can tell you, it's the ONLY dress shoe I'll ever wear. Quality holds a nice shine and THE most comfortable dress shoe ever made bar NONE! Forget dress, the most comfortable shoe period. Light as a feather, NO break in needed, feel like a pair of broken in slippers, not kidding at all. Accommodates orthotics just fine. Look great with a suit and honestly for both young & old. ***Zappos - tell Florsheim never to change or discontinue this shoe and why don’t they make far more with this same comfort & leather? Zappos, as always, had the shoe at my door in 20 hours. Awesome.

Style & comfort - I recently purchased the Florsheim Riva because I have always been very pleased with the quallity and performance of Florsheim products. I was not disappointed. When the shoe arrive I was able to wear the shoes the same day and be comfortable with no wear in period. The soft sole has helped reduce impact on my knees. I walked all over the Las Vegas strip the first weekend and I was very comfortable. I would highly recommend this product.

This is the original convention floor shoe. I have four pairs right now, in various states of wear, and will wear nothing else -- except perhaps for soccer cleats, when appropriate (and I wish Florsheim made a socccer shoe). I have worn them for successive 12+ hour days at trade shows and conventions, with a minimum of discomfort at the end of the day, and I've never had any other shoe come close to that level of performance. The toughest test is the NAB trade show in Las Vegas -- someone should set up a booth in the convention center concourse selling these things (seriously!) because every year you see people walking around on the second and subsequent days of the show wearing three piece suits and a pair of brand-new running shoes they likely bought in desperation after the first day.

After about 9 months of 5 day/week wear tear on one side and buckle came loose from shoe. Not as supportive as most shoes.

I bought these shoes for airline travel. I wanted something for slipping on and off while passing through security that would be stylish enough for business meetings on either end of the trip. They'll meet that purpose, but I probably won't wear them for much else. I find that after a day of walking around the city in these shoes, my feet are more tired than usual with a few aches and pains. They're okay, but not spectacular.

Comfortable and stylish; however, I am disappointed in Florsheim's quality. The left insole is loose and has a fold in it.

You may think Florsheim shoes are expensive. Think again.I have very wide feet and it's difficult for me to find shoes that fit properly. Florsheim shoes look great and are totally comfortable. I've been wearing their shoes for years. I find them consistant in sizing and are made from quality material. I wear dress shoes daily for work and I would wear nothing else. They look great and feel great. What else can I say.

I love these shoes. I am substitute teacher and these shoes are great when you are on your feet all day long. They are the best, and I know that a 21 year old would not wear these shoes, but I do and I do not care.

The shoes I ordered arrived in two days, and fit perfectly. I have returned shoes in the past that did not have the perfect fit, but received a replacement in a short period of time that met my satisfaction. I would highly recommend these shoes and ordering with Zappos.com.

These shoes are great. I have worn this style for several years, but my review is about the awesome customer service that I received. After placing my order online, I called the 800 number to check on another detail about the order and talked to Stephanie. She went back and checked my order to be sure all was correct and that I would receive the shoes within 24 hours. I have never had such great customer service anyplace before. So Stephanie, whoever you are, you personally made me a committed customer for Zappos. Thanks for the help and congratulations on the impressive manner in which you do your job. Thanks again.

Been buying this shoe for over 15 - 20 years and I can't believe Florsheim is still making it. Why? Because the shoe is almost impossible to wear out. It is extremely light and comfortable right out of the box. The best shoe I've ever purchased and Zappos is the place to buy it. Their service and delivery is second to none.

I have never associated with anyone that rewards me for my mistake, as zappos did. I ordered the wrong size shoes, received free shipping for my mistake and free shipping for my re-order. I also received a coupon with new order. I promise not to continue with mistakes, but I do promise coninued ordering form zappos. I was overwhelmed with over-night delivery of my second order. Your exhibit of professionalism is evident. Your product is first-rate. Thank-you.

Great shoe, for us I believe this is the third or fourth pair of the same style and we have a pair in two colors. Excellent fit for a narrow foot, great wear time other than the shoes tend to squeak when first breaking them in. :( Zappos service is EXCELLENT; in fact we almost have the shoes before we hit "send" for the order! Return policy is good but because we like the shoe, we know we won't need it!

I have been buying this same shoe for over ten years because of its traditional style and comfort. The composite sole is also very important to me since I tend to drag my left foot do to childhood polio and I therefore wear out leather soles in six months. This shoe can be worn for casual or dress occasions.

Florsheims's Riva - My husband absolutely loves these shoes. They fit perfectly and for a man who has so many problems finding narrow shoes, he is in heaven with these.

Any that Zappos offers with their no cost return policy!
