Rieker EVOLUTION
Our Products
rieker anti-stress footwear is unique
Rieker shoes are not merely decorative, fashionable, products. Their functional features mean they offer much more than that. Every shoe incorporates our special construction and utilises lightweight and elastic components to achieve our special antistress features.
Rieker shoes are different from athletic shoes because the design of athletic shoes is mostly for short-term, high performance. The performance of Rieker shoes is not only measured by how fast you run or how high you jump but how good you feel in everyday life.
Our company
unique and family-run
The company soon gained a reputation for quality and has built itself into a household name in Central Europe. The company has been family owned for 5 generations and its commitment to quality and style has ensured continuous growth for 30 years.
At the beginning of the 1970's new headquarters were set up in Switzerland and production moved away from Europe. Today Rieker employs approximately 20,000 people, especially in Morocco, Slovakia, Tunisia and Vietnam, where the company's own production facilities are located.
We provide Rieker shoes and accessories to around 9,000 independent retailers, mainly in Europe.
Rieker antistress footwear is unique. To maintain the integrity of its special constructions, together with the flexibility to respond quickly to fashion trends, virtually everything Rieker sells is made by Rieker.
More about Rieker
The Brand
Rieker's philosophy has always been to provide not just a better product, but the best people can buy. We produce high quality leisure products that not only look good, but enhance the wearer's lifestyle.

For many consumers with a hectic lifestyle, who want good looks and performance, Rieker has gained an almost cult like following.
The Product
Rieker shoes are not merely decorative, fashionable, products. Their functional features mean they offer much more than that. Every shoe incorporates our special construction and utilises lightweight and elastic components to achieve our special antistress features.
Those features are:
- Minimum weight.
- Maximum reflexibility (what we call the ´barefoot´ feeling).
- A construction that devotes space to areas where the foot expands through the day.
- Optimum shock absorption on varying surfaces.
Rieker shoes are different from athletic shoes because the design of athletic shoes is mostly for short-term, high performance. The performance of Rieker shoes is not only measured by how fast you run or how high you jump but how good you feel in everyday life.
