They are well made and fairly comfortable, but extremely heavy and also very tall. Definitely not for exercise, walking or jogging, but okay for wearing a few hours running errands. I thought they would be my new work shoes, but I'm on my feet too much for that.

Usually I wear size 39/40. I ordered a size 41 but unfortunately this was still about 2 sizes too small. Really unfortunate as I loved the design! But since they don't go bigger than 41 I will never be able to order new sneakers from this brand :(

Rio Trainers

I was really excited about these trainers as I have tried a similar pair from this brand before. However, I was a bit disappointed that after only a week or two the inner lining was already significantly worn down. The trainers also took longer than expected to break in and sometimes hurt my feet. For the price I was expecting more. Otherwise I love the ethics and the style!

These took a few wears to break in. They look great but I wouldn’t recommend for long walks as I find them quite heavy and not very flexible. Wearing them a full day hurt my feet a bit. I’d recommend for fashion but not for exercise , dog walks etc!
