Looks great but no cushioning - This boot has great style and looks well-made. Unfortunately, contrary to the description, it has almost no cushioning. I took the insole out and it is very thin and hard. Perhaps you could replace it with a better insole, but that would affect the tightness of the fit. I want cushioning, so I'll have to return it.

I like the looks of it, and it fits me well. I wish there were a bit more spring in it, and more arch support. Not everyone has flat feet, so the latter comment has no general relevance.

Very comfortable from the day one but poor material quality. The outsole left marks on my wood floor and then the heel rubber was worn out in less than 2 months. I was very disappointed because I like this brand and had a pair that has lasted for almost 4 years. I had to return the pair. I would buy Rieker again if they improve the quality of the outsole...only if they prove they can do it.

This boot is a bit more rigid than some of the other Rieker footwear. It also runs a little large so I can wear a thicker sock. Very stylish and comfortable.

The color is great also because it can pass for either black or brown. Very cute, very comfortable!

I love this boot. It is comfortable and looks great. I have worn them with skinny jeans to show off the leather detail. I am always asked where I got them. Another plus, they are different from all the plain boots out there.

1. The color is more of a burnt orange than it looks in the picture. Not U-Texas, but not as red as the photo appears. 2. The long sleeves tend to get in the way. I can't get them to stay pushed up. 3. Otherwise I really like the fit through the body.
