Rieker is a German comfort brand and, like most European labels, their shoes are sized in European (EU) sizes.
The difference between a European size and a UK size isn't exact — one EU size is roughly three-quarters of a UK size, which means the conversion doesn't land neatly on a whole or half UK size.
To keep things simple, many brands round up to the nearest UK size, but in practice the true UK equivalent sits closer to a half size down.
For example, a European 39 is closer to a UK 5.5, despite most brands labelling it as a UK 6.
For this reason, if you are between sizes or normally take a half size, we'd recommend sizing up.
Although German brands are often associated with a wider fit, the majority of Rieker's most popular styles are made on a more standard last — and due to the size translation, they can still come up slightly small.
So again, when in doubt, we'd recommend sizing up.

Almost every brand rounds EU 43 up to a UK 9, EU 44 to a UK 10, and EU 45 to a UK 11 — but a more accurate conversion would be 8.5, 9.5, and 10.5 respectively.
