Very comfortable...
This was yet another enjoyable shopping experience with Zappos. This was a gift and despite the fact that I had to exchange the initial purchase for a different size the entire transaction was completed in less than a week. The shoes are exactly what I expected.

A long time favorite -
I have worn this shoe for 20+ years. It is the most comfortable semi dress slip on I have ever encountered. It seems to be a bit narrower than the stated width, but otherwise it is a winner.

Fantastic Shoes!
My husband has worn this shoe for the last ten years. It has gotten to the point where he doesn't go to the store to be fitted. He just tells me that he needs another pair of shoes just like the other ones. He says that they are the most comfortable shoes he has worn.

Amazing comfort -
The Rivas are stylish with good arch support and heal and sole cushioning. You can take these out of the box and wear them comfortably without breaking them in. Starling value for a nice looking shoe.

Still the Same Old Shoe -
My husband (who hates to shop) finally realized that the Florsheims he'd bought 7-8 years ago were needing to be replaced but dreaded trudging from store to store looking for the same shoe. I told him I'd "Zappos" it and, lo and behold, the very same shoe in the same color was only a click away. He couldn't believe it when they arrived the next morning (I'd ordered them around 1 pm the afternoon before!). They felt a little tight but he knew they would soon stretch to be comfortable. He was delighted and frankly, incredulous, that one could sit down and with a few clicks, "let your fingers do the walking" and have the product you were wanting in your possession in less than 24 hours - with FREE shipping, no less.

Dad's shoes -
My father has diabetes and rheumatoid arthritis. His toes are extremely deformed, he has bunions, and finding shoes to fit has been very challenging. He is thrilled with the fit of these Florsheim Rivas! His comment to me was "they feel like bedroom shoes."
I'd also recommend:
New Balance made with size 2 last. It is wider than usual.

Riva Shoe Fit -
Seems the last pair I purchased although 10 1/2d in size did not fit as well & were loose .I have been using this model over the last six or seven years without this problem.

Boston Comfort -
I finally found a dress shoe that didn’t squeeze the widest points on my feet into a painful evening. Most size 12 or 13 shoes fit front to back, but pain y sideways. Extra wides fall off me, too big. This shoe is the 1st dress shoe to fit perfectly. I enjoyed the comfort.

EXCELLENT -
I have always enjoyed Florsheim shoes. Because I wear a 6.5 size, I have difficulty in finding my size. I wish Florsheim would make my size in other styles.

FLORSHEIM IS BEST FOR ME -
THE Florsheim shoe is only brand I've been able to wear in past 50 plus years. I wear an 8-1/2 3E and never have to try-on, they always fit and last for years.
I'd also recommend:
Any Florsheim brand shoe.

Florsheim Riva -
From the pictures I was expecting a shoe that, even with the EEE fitting for my duck-like feet, would need to be broken in with a few days of discomfort before they molded to my feet. I was very pleasantly surprised to find that they were comfortable from the very first wearing, to the point that I sometimes don't feel as though I am wearing shoes at all! (More like fire-side slippers!)
That comfort might not work for everyone, because if your feet are used to a stiffer shoe, or actually need to be supported, then these are possibly too soft and supple. The soles as well as the uppers are fairly flexible.
For me however, these are excellent shoes, and I will definitely be buying more Florsheim shoes in the future.

The Riva is mah-RIVA-lous!
I've been buying/wearing this same shoe for 24 years now. I first wore it when I was a store manager in Chicago for the now closed Florsheim chain of company-owned stores that was HQ'd there. I am still a retail store manager. I spend the majority of my work week on my feet. Wouldn't wear anything else.

Great fit -
My husband wears a 7.5-E shoe. This size is very
hard to find. Florsheim Riva fits PERFECT! It looks
great-does not pinch his foot and he keeps them
on all day! Most shoes he buys-he has trouble
with his instep-not the Florsheims!! He really
says they are VERY comfortable on his feet.

Shoes for husband -
My husband has never used ZAPPOS before. As Florsheim stores are becoming increasingly harder to find, I suggested he order online. He knew what he wanted and was very impressed w/the quick delivery. Florsheim have always worked for him. He's happy...I'm happy...now we both shop at Zappos...

My Zappos Florsheim.
I was a little skeptical about mail ordering for shoes. I live on a military base overseas. Very limited selection. I ordered anyway. What a pleasant surprise! The size was perfect, packing was perfect, and delivery was MUCH quicker that expected. I'm SOLD. From now on it’s Zappos for me!!

Right size!
These shoes fit like a glove! First time in years I found a correct width for my foot (EEEEE!) Stores never stock them so I always had to buy 11 EEE's to get something wearable.
Thanks Zappos!

20 years in the same shoe -
It is great when you get a shoe that fits, that looks great, and from a company that you can count on; moreover, if you can do this for 20 years, the value is beyond rubies. Thank you Zappos and Florsheim for a great product and great service.

Old favorite!
My husband has been wearing this style shoe for many years. It is extremely comfortable and fits his foot very well. These shoes are very well made, and wear well. He wears them everyday to work and I replace them about every 2 years.

Florsheim Riva -
Please take any compliment you've read about Zappos & believe it! The same is true for this shoe. My husband HATES to shop & I can't think of anything more difficult to buy for someone else than comfortable shoes. This shoe met his demand for comfort for his narrow size feet & my wish for style in his shoes. The service was Zappos' usual best that I've come to take for granted. Thank you!

Great looks and Value -
The Florsheim Riva is a great business casual dress shoe. It feels pretty good, and is comparable with shoes costing two or three times as much. It is also available in a wide array of colors, so it will go with just about anything.
