Customer Reviews Rieker L1751 Celia 51

My favorite shoes. I am buying the same style for few years and very happy with Celia 51

I have worn this shoe for years and will always purchase it. Some may not like the fact of no arch support but it's great for me as my orthotics fit perfectly and I wear the shoes all day.

These are comfy and nice looking, I think I'll wear them all the time. I was looking for a lace up oxford, but kept going back to see this one. Based on the previous review of others, I decided to get these a try. ????????????

I am very disappointed with these shoes. First, they are the first pair of Riekers (and I have many) that were too small. Plus, the color - smoke - is exactly the same as my last pair of Riekers that was graphite. The smoke color is brown, not grey.

Comfortable right out of the box! Well made and so soft, cushiony. I bought them for a trip to the Czech Republic, where I would be walking a lot, but also needed shoes for meetings to wear with pants. These were were the only shoes I wore for the entire trip -- and they have the bonus of being, and therefore, looking, "European."

Just got mine today, slipped them on, and wow! Happy feet all day...even walked 3 times around my huge block and no problems with my tender feet that almost always hurt. What a great shoe...also so good looking in this color!

These are my second pair of Riekers. I love both pairs! These are good looking, very comfortable, and fit well. Super light, too. I highly recommend them.

These shoes are great! They make your foot look smaller. Fit true to size. Very comfortable. I have had many compliments how great they look.

I found this brand when in Quebec, but they didn't have my size. Zappos did, luckily, and I ordered the Celia 51. The comfort of this shoe is outstanding, a great winter shoe. It feels like I am wearing a comfortable glovelike slipper. And the service from Zappos was fabulous - I got the shoes within 3 days from date of order!

This shoe is wonderful! This is my second pair. I like wearing them with pants because they look like I'm wearing boots (which I don't like because they are hot). They are great for travel because they are so comfortable, even when walking all day long. (Pair #1 has been to Toronto, Chicago and to Italy.) I have worn Riekers for a long time -- I like the wider footbed. I got my second pair to be my "wear all the time" shoes instead of sneakers. I generally buy half a size bigger than usual with this brand.

I already had purchased a pair of these shoes in black at a traditional shoe store, and they were so comfortable I decided to get a second pair in brown. I was very pleased when I found them on Zappos through a google search. For one thing, they were less than at the store, plus free shipping! I normally have trouble finding comfortable shoes, but these fit like a glove, and I forget that I'm wearing shoes. I get many compliments on how nice they look. That's when I go "shoes? oh, that's right, I am wearing shoes!" They're that comfortable!

Comfort right out of the box - Great shoe...I'm glad I didn't heed the warnings of reviewers that the shoe size wasn't true. I ordered my usual size and the fit is just fine. Great service...Thank you, Zappos.

Great shoe! I love this shoe - the fit is wonderful - feels like a glove on my foot - great support - wish I could get it in the coffee color.

Great looking shoe! Love the style. Seems to fit fine on first wearing.

This is a well crafted shoe. The leather is good quality—butter soft but not thin. The sole is of sturdy rubber making this a great walking or travel shoe. Stylewise it’s a Rieker which means more casual utilitarian than fashion statement. It’s a nice and sturdier variation on the driving moc. Look good with work slacks or jeans. They run a bit narrow, however, and pinch across my foot where I have a developing bunion. But I’ve decided to keep them and stretch the right one out.

Extremely soft and supple leather. No breaking in period needed! Good for moderate walking, but not for extended walks or "off-road" as the sole is a bit thin. However, that is one reason it is so comfortable-the sole is very flexible. I'm also not crazy about the black accents as they are a hard plastic-cheapens the look of the shoe, in my opinion.

I love this shoe, so soft and pliable. One thing, it looked worn in on day two, the toe seam might use another coat of dye.

These shoes are a nice soft leather and are well made. They look very nice on - a little different than most. They fit just right everywhere. My only complaint is that the sole is so flexible that they have sort of a bedroom slipper feel. I prefer a little more support (though there is a small arch) and cushioning on the sole. I am keeping them because overall they are quite good.

Nice, comfortable, just one problem with black leather insert shoes, they are not glue properly and every time I take off my shoes the inserts come off. The black leather is coloring my slacks.

I had never tried this brand before. Because these shoes are sized different I was a bit hesitant in ordering them. They fit snug and I debated about sending them back but because they are leather I would wear them around the house and hoping they would stretch a little. After wearing them for awhile, they actually form to your feet and are very comfortable. If you want a shoe that you don't know you have on, these are it. They do have a nice squared off toe, not the pointy ones. They look really great with my jeans.

I ordered these and then needed to get a larger size. The first pair that were too small had a very nice soft pebbly leather. Unfortunately the larger size had a stiff smooth leather which were less attractive and less comfortable. I am returning them.

The shoe is comfortable but did not work for a full day of London touring. My foot is narrow and tends to slide around as the shoe stretches out. I like the look and will enjoy wearing them on a casual basis but not the walking shoe I was hoping to find.
