This year's New Year celebrations marked the end of a remarkable 2007 for the world leader in AntiStress® footwear and one of the biggest names in European shoes. Last year, Rieker outranked household names such as Clarks, Ecco, Rohde, Hotter, and Van Dal in independent retailers across the country and was named the UK's best-selling mainstream footwear brand for both men and women*.
Not content to put its feet up, Rieker looks set to have an even bigger 2008 having recently won the prestigious IFRA (Independent Footwear Retailers Association) Ladies brand of the year.
The event was attended by some of the biggest names in UK footwear and was addressed by world famous designer, Wayne Hemingway. The accolade is just the latest in a long list of prestigious awards that this family-run company has collected over the last few years. It is a multi-award winning brand for good reason; the shoes are precision made from up to 50 parts to promote comfort through well-being and they represent fantastic value for money.
Rieker shoes are lighter and roomier than many high street brands. The in-house designers combine the latest trends from across Europe with AntiStress® technology to create fabulous, diverse collections of footwear which offer incredible reflexibility and shock absorption. Rieker shoes have a wide-age appeal and are worn by people from all walks of life.
Rieker is a household brand name on much of the continent; renowned for offering incredible quality, comfort and style at highly affordable prices. The Rieker brand is rapidly growing across the UK. There are already dedicated Rieker shops in Ayr, Bristol, Dundee, Glasgow, Salisbury, Solihull, Stirling, Torquay and Weymouth and this growth is set to continue in 2008.
