ReviewRieker Men’s Desert Boots: My Feet Are Lovin’ This Urban Adventure
Let’s be real, I spend a lot of time walking. City life, you know? So, shoes are kinda a big deal. I’ve always dug the look of desert boots – that sweet spot between rugged and cool. When I saw Rieker’s take on them, I had to give ’em a whirl. And after a good few weeks of wear? Here’s the lowdown.
Right off the bat, that chestnut brown leather just looks classy. It goes with basically everything – jeans, khakis, even when I’m trying to look a little more put-together. They felt solid in my hands, and the laces? Seemed like they’d actually stay tied, which is always a plus.
Now, Rieker’s all about comfort, and these boots? They get it. The “comfort width G 1/2” thing? Seriously clutch. I’ve got slightly wider feet, and these don’t squeeze at all. Plenty of room to wiggle, without feeling like my feet are swimming. The inside’s synthetic, which had me side-eyeing at first, but honestly, my feet didn’t get all sweaty and gross, even after a full day of running around. I even wore them on a long walk through the park last week, and my feet were still smiling at the end. No pinchy spots, no blisters, just happy feet.
The soles are TR, and they’re surprisingly great. Good cushion, good grip. I even wore them on a slightly drizzly day, and didn’t feel like I was gonna wipe out. I mean, I wouldn’t take these on a serious hike up a mountain, but for everyday city stuff? They’re perfect. And that little 2.5 cm platform? It’s just enough to give you a little boost without feeling like you’re teetering around.
Okay, if I’m being picky, the closure feels a little…basic. A nicer leather or something fancier there would be a nice touch. And, I’m keeping an eye on how the leather holds up in the long run, especially when it gets wet.
