The mules were well made and felt at the foot well to. The Velcro straps are padded properly and can be opened pleasant and close (and keep!). I had ordered it in 45 because my old slippers also had size 45 and I thought, therefore, that it would fit. The Rieker but are rather like normal shoes, I would so rather Size 47 used. Have they therefore returned for free and get my money back quickly! (Bought at Trattler) For the long-term quality / durability I can therefore not say anything. Unfortunately, the Rieker was in 47 no longer available (at no seller)
