Introducing the APL Riviera. 

Picture the coast of southern Europe in its golden era. Slow mornings, sun on stone, a kind of ease that can’t be bought, only lived. The APL Riviera was made for that world, and for yours.

A low-profile silhouette that sits close to the foot with real precision, the APL Riviera is the shoe for the places you travel to and the days that don’t keep time. The upper marries premium canvas with luxurious suede and leather overlays, creating depth and dimension without excess. Our signature A-stitch traces the shoe’s lines with intention, and a new side logo marks it as unmistakably APL. A padded collar adds comfort where it matters most.

Here’s the part you can’t see. Beneath the refined upper sits the same performance midsole engineering that you love, tuned for maximum cushioning in a minimal stack height. It’s why a shoe this elegant feels like a gift on your foot. Comfort here isn’t an afterthought, it’s our heritage, hidden inside something beautiful.

This is luxury performance, the way only APL makes it. Designed by artists, crafted by engineers.

An extra set of laces is included for versatile wear and styling options. 10mm drop. Men's size 9 is 10.7 oz.

The APL Riviera is crafted with premium materials that are not waterproof or colorfast. Avoid rain and excessive moisture to help preserve their original appearance.

All of our shoes are unisex. If your size is sold out, simply select a women's size on the site and adjust the fit up by a size and half. For example, a size 7 in men's is a size 8.5 in women's.
