this is marked same size as last several I have bought in about 25 years. It is 1/2 inch longer by careful measurement and was returned. Said made in India same as last pair. Identical numbers.

The shoes are very nice looking and comfortable but they squeak. I returned them and a new pair is on the way.

My husband loves these shoes. He's been wearing a 11E. The website states these are available in EW. Upon receipt, we noticed the packing slip, the box and shoes were marked 11E. I called Florsheim and they told me to call DXL. The rep at DXL saw the same info, so we tried again. Same results. They had my phone number and my email but never contacted me. Very disappointed.

Bought these for my Husband after reading positive reviews. The shoes looks stylish but after a month they started tearing off. Had to throw them out..

13106 was the most comfortable shoe I ever had. Now, this shoe that you ask about is ranked high in in the uncomfortable zone

Bought them but only wore them a few times over a few years. They were super comfy and classy looking....BUT...One day at a wedding, the heels just crumbled, disintegrated !!!!! .....couldn't believe it....everyone was rolling on the floor in hysterics.... pretty funny really, almost like bought from a joke shop, lol..... too embarrassed to even attempt to bring them back since I think the shoe store has long since gone out of business.... no kidding.

I have been 8.5 EEE for decades and have always worn Florsheim. Now the sizes are kind of random, looks like they have outsourced production to multiple factories without quality control

I have worn these shoes for 30 years. My newest pair I wore yesterday and today when the sole split transversely and the stitching holding the shoe to the sole broke on both shoes. Shoes that cost this much should last longer than 2 days of normal use.

Shoes are very comfortable and easy wearing. This is the third pair that the soles and heels disintegrated while the shoes still looked good. Sitting in shoe rack in closet, when I put them on and started walking is when problems appeared.

When I buy shoes, usually they will last until the top tears up or gets scuffed. I have shoes that are 10 to 20 years old and they are still wearable and look good. This is the second pair that soles have deroriated just sitting in the closet. They look good when you put them on, then they come all to pieces while wearing them. Don't like at all. They were very comfortable and looked good.

i do not wear this type of shoe daily. The 5tth time I put them on the heal came apart. I expect a quality product from Florsheim, and was very disappointed.

Never received replacement shoes as promised. Shipping sent them to the wrong address. That was three weeks ago and I STILL don't have them even though I gave them the proper address in the first place. I have had AT LEAST 15 pairs of Rivas over the years. They are extremely comfortable but do not wear very well. But to have a sole crumble into pieces while walking on carpet? These shoes were new and had only been worn for a total of 6 hours!!

I only wore the shoes about 10 times and the sole started falling apart on one shoe. Made with bad rubber. Was very comfortable when I bought them...now they can't be worn. Upper leather is like new and other shoe is barely worn...looks like new. Heel and front sole started breaking off in chunks. Too much money spent for that to happen.

Past purchases of this shoe have always been good, I loved the shoe, until this last purchase. The shoe does not fit the same. I have had to return the shoe at my expense. If I were to have a different shoe sent out, and it did not fit, I would be returning that shoe at my expense. My advice is don't buy something that in the end you spend more money buying and returning, and get no shoes. Bad Business

I have been buying Florsheim Riva shoes for many years because I can wear them anywhere, they're comfortable,slips on and off and comes in a narrow width. I have narrow feet and wish you had more shoes in a narrow width.

I definitely do not recommend! These shoes do not wear well - and they caused blisters. They were supposed to replace them and I have yet to received them yet. Stay away!

I have purchased this same style for many years and have always purchased the width 3E. I have purchased both black and burgundy or brown in all that time. This is the first time that the shoe did not fit; it is also the first time I have ordered directly from Florsheim. I will be returning the shoes and will not order from the company again.

I have large feet (15 4E) so finding shoes is sometimes a challenge. When I find shoes that fit and I like, I sometimes buy two pairs. I did that with these Florsheims back in March. Five months later, the rubber sole failed (a piece came off and a large crack formed). I immediately switched to my second pair. The rubber sole on this shoe started disintegrating the very same day. They clearly had a materials problem and maybe it has been resolved, but I am out quite a bit of money and it is probably too late to get them to do anything about it. I see no other mention of this problem, but it definitely bit me.

Shoes squeak-first day wearing. Returned a pair of new Riva's 3 weeks ago for squeaking, but the replacement shoes are just like them. Left shoe squeaks both times.

I have a problem with pain on the back of my heel. This the only shoe I have found that does not cause me pain. You notice I have been buying them for some time.

THere is a ridge around the inside of one shoe that makes it uncomfortable to wear. I have worn it twice and the ridge seems a little less pronunced.

Love Florsheim shoes, but hate these. Strange pressure points in the sole. Feet get very hot in these shoes, I find I slip them off under my desk and while driving whenever I can. THe shoe has rolled under my ankle twice in the past year, very unstable. Based on reviews, I bought 2 pair of these. I will never buy another pair of Rivas again. Return to leather soled shoes.
