Riva The BestStrengths: Everyday & Every occasion shoe Weakness: They don't lastr forever The Florsheim Riva shoe is as soft as butter & fits like a glove. You will actually feel as if walking on air. I know, because this is my eight pair with the same shoe. The only way I'll ever change, is if I ever break a leg. I hope that never happens because I will miss my Riva. 50% of readers found this review helpful. Did you find it helpful or unhelpful? Top

My only office shoes since 1993Strengths: It is comfortable to wear. It is like you are just wearing slippers while on working attire. Weakness: You cant use it on very formal occasions. The tip and the side disintegrates on the third or fourth year of everyday use. I have bought 3 pairs of shoes since 1993. Im about to buy my fourth one because the sole is broken.You would never want to look for any other type of working shoes once you have experienced its comfort. Did you find it helpful or unhelpful?

The most comfortable and durable shoe for meStrengths: Comfortable, lightweight, durable, breathable, comes in wide Weakness: Easily wrinkled, not watertight/winterized This is actually my second pair of Florsheim Rivas, and my first burgundy. My first pair, black, was bought in 2004 and is still in active duty. That is a testament to its durability, and even if it's no longer pristine, no other shoe has come close to its hug-your-foot-fit and light-as-air feel. There are a few styles that have the same features but don't nearly last as long. My Bostonian Prescotts, in contrast, were worn only a few times in 3 years but its rubber soles literally disintegrated. My Ballys began scuffing like crazy from day one.

A Different ShoeStrengths: Flexible, soft, comfortable. Weakness: Length of sole support. A nice durable shoe. It almost feels like you are walking on clouds or wearing slippers outside. You can't tell you are wearing a dress shoe. It's soft and nice. I'm not sure if it's weather proof or not but it's a nice shoe. I will let you know more about the shoe as I it wear it some more. These are my intial overall impressions of the shoes.I read a lot of reviews on how great the shoe was and now I thought I should try it. Did you find it helpful or unhelpful? Top

Florsheim Riva Men's Shoe
Strengths: Soft leather that holds a good shine Combination rubber heel and sole provide good cushion
Weakness: A bit casual for highly formal events
Overall a great comfortable shoe that holds it shape and runs true to sizing. I haven't found a better shoe for every day wear. The leather stays soft and the soft rubber heel and soles are great if you walk a lot.
