Even though they are my husbands size that he's been wearing for 30 years from Florsheim this pair we will return . Way to narrow and he can't get his foot into the shoe. Leather not as soft as before. Disappointed !

I have a pair of these that I have had for years and wanted to replace. There is an elastic strap over the top of the foot that is an inch and a half long on my old pair. On the new pair it was less than half as long so it cuts into the top of the foot making them too painful to wear. So I returned them. Real shame as I really liked these shoes. Probably saves manufacturer a penny every 10 pairs.

The very first time I wore the shoe I took a walk around the block (~0.5mi.) to see how I liked it. Both soles cracked in half horizontally. I was astonished, but I thought maybe the hot pavement was too much for them and decided I would use them as slippers. Large chunks disintegrated off the soles, and soon after the whole sole fell off. (Yes, I could put a new sole on, these were obviously defective) But, perhaps, I might recommend going with a leather soled shoe to begin with.

I wore and loved these shoes for over 20 years but the pairs I bought in the last year are very differently sized - far narrower (I wear a 3E) and less high (no room inside anymore for an arch support insert). This is a great loss since I loved these shoes but they no longer fit. I don't think a larger size would solve the problem since I am already at maximum width and it's way too narrow.

I have been buying Florsheim shoes for decades. All of a sudden your brown and black color shoes of this style have been coming in undersized. I wear a 10.5 EEE and have had to return 5 pairs of shoes due to the shoes visibly being too short. It may come down to your supplier in India. If the shoe model # information printed on the inside of the shoe is spaced out, these shoes are undersized. If the model information is printed closer with no spacing in between characters, these shoes are made properly. If you are going to outsource manufacturing offshore, you should not rely on their Quality Control. You obviously have a problem!

I had to discard two pairs of These shoes. The soles and heels seemed to melt from normal household heat.

I loved the shoe but was totally disappointed and had to return . My shoe was too tight although it was supposed to be a D width which normally would be more than enough . Had they been a little wider I would have bought 2 pair or at least one in each color.If you ever offer that shoe in one size wider let me know.

I returned them because the elastic band is no longer as stretchable as it was in a pair of Rivas that I already have (in a different color). Therefore, they are no longer a true wide width as the shorter elastic band keeps them from stretching properly in width. Very disappointing.

I have had several pair of the Riva and up to this latest pair, I found them to be great shoes. I need a 7.5 / 3EEE, and although these were labeled 3EEE, they were very very tight. I decided to return them for a refund, as they were comfortable as previous Rivas I have purchased.

I returned it. It fit great, but the color wasn't like the picture. It was an odd color you'd expect an old man to wear.

THE SUPPOSED 5E WIDE SHOES WERE NOT ANY WIDER THAN THE 3E WIDE SHOES I BOUGHT SOME TIME BACK. I RETURNED THE 5E WIDE SHOES BECAUSE I COUD NOT GET MY FEET INTO THEM.
I LOVE THIS PRODUCT AND HAVE WORM THEM SINCE THEY WERE $35/PAIR IN THE 80'S, BUT I COULD NOT FIND ANY EXTRA WIDE RIVA SHOES IN ANY STORES FOR OVER TWO YEARS.
I STRETCHED MY 3E WIDE SHOES OUT SO THAT I COULD FIT MY FEET INTO THEM.

Recently purchase pair of shoes shown above that I had in my collection for many years. Did not resemble the construction of the shoes I had.
No leather sole! Size not the same!

It is stylish and comfortable when you first try it on. Then the heals disintegrate after just a few hours of use or a few miles of walking. This has happened to me before with this shoe. The quality of Floursheim tanked 15 years ago. They are just living off their name for sales. No quality at all. Cheap materials.

I purchased these some time ago and only wore them three or four times. The sole and heel on one started deteriorating into little pieces. I have another pair I have worn for years with no problems. Not pleased at all.
