... And that is saying something - it's really hard to find the right shoe for him. Not too narrow, yet chic it should be. In Rieker I am once again been able to find. It had to substitute for a transitional Rieker shoe ago - the last model has (but only to and from work) held 1 Winter almost daily, bearable for the price. The shoe fit like a glove - my husband has more of a small 42 - but Rieker just always fits. Inside warm (fake fur) - outside leatherette - nevertheless the shoe looks elegant and not cheap. Very practical, the two zippers for easy entry - laces tear too quickly. We remain at Rieker, strong buy recommendation
