This is my 6th pair of Ryka studio shoes. It\'s comfortable and gives me the ankle support I need for the high intensity aerobic class. I always order half larger.

These lightweight shoes have been perfect for stabilization of my feet and ankles while participating in Jazzercise classes 3+ times per week. The price was the most reasonable I've found, and in fact, these shoes are what my favorite Jazzercise instructor wears as well, ordered from Zappos.com.

I love these shoes for Jazzercise class. They are high tops without being too bulky at the ankle. Really nice ankle support which I really need and can't get from lower cut shoes. The shipping couldn't have been faster; got them within 2 days. Thanks, Zappos.

These shoes are by far the best aerobic shoes I have ever owned. This is my 4th pair, and I hope they are always available, as long as I am able to Jazzercise. I normally wear an 8, and I take an 8.5 in these. They keep my ankles very stable during my workouts, which is critical.

I love this shoe, it is really hard to find step aerobic shoes especially a mid cut. This shoe is comfortable and has heel and ankle stability.\r\n\r\nI will recommend this shoe!

I just ordered my 5th pair of these shoes (I think, I've lost count)! They are the best shoe I have found for Jazzercise, comfortable & supportive. They accommodate my orthotics perfectly. My only complaint is I wish they were more durable; mine only last about 50 classes. Perhaps I am just hard on shoes. Ryka could make them a little more stylish, too. The grey/pool at least has some color; I hate all white aerobic shoes! Zappos is of course amazing; free shipping and they usually arrive within 2 days max! Thank you!

I just reviewed this shoe, but I wanted to add that I found that it fit "true-to-size"; in other words, the same as my typical street shoes. I usually wear a size 8 in everyday shoes or dress shoes, but go to an 8.5 for athletic shoes. These were an exception; size 8 fits perfectly.

This is a comfortable, mid-height aerobics shoe. I love the way it hugs my heel while still giving my toes space. The sole is a little bit thin, and the insole is not terribly cushy or shaped, though. I will be replacing the insole with one offering some arch support. The treads are a tiny bit more "grippy" than I prefer for twisting moves, but not bad. A good shoe for a reasonable price.

This is a good solid shoe. I use it for Jazzercise and step aerobics. Good ankle support. Styling could be a little sleeker but not bad for $50.

This is a great shoe for step aerobics. Best to get a 1/2 size larger. Ryka, please keep making shoes for step, midtops with good arch support! They're getting harder and harder to find. Thanks, Zappos, for such speedy delivery!

I ordered the Ryka N-Gage Studio Mid. I had been looking for this shoe for months. A co-worker told me about Zappos.com. I looked at the web-site for a few weeks before I decided to order the shoes. I was happy with the process and the price was good.

I have been an aerobics instructor for ten years and require a true aerobics aerobic tennis shoe in order to not injure myself or feel pain. These shoes are it! I can teach with comfort and feel that my feet are completely supported. I've been using them for 3 weeks and ache-and-pain free. Excellent shoe!

These shoes are the best! They are super comfortable. Order a half size larger than your regular shoe size and they will fit perfect! I use them for jazzercise and they have erased the ankle and shin pain that I was having. I would purchase these shoes again for sure!

I bought these to do Jazzercise; and I have very pleased with them. I have trouble with my feet and these shoes have been great for cushioning and support. I ordered up a size from my normal shoes, but the same size as my running shoes and they have fit good.

As a fitness instructor, it's hard to find affordable studio shoes. Zappos has exactly what I'm looking for with a brand name I trust. I'm also pleased with their ease of ordering and the quick delivery.

I have purchased many pairs of this type of aerobic shoe from Ryka over the years. I wish they'd work on increasing and improving this type of studio shoe! They usually only offer one kind; they should offer shoes for different types of feet as running shoe companies offer: cushioning for high arches, stability for flat feet, etc. Or: offer different types of inserts for the same shoe. Many people will pay more for better quality, better cushioning, better, more high tech options!

Excellent, fast service, just as promised. However, I was surprised that after just 3 times, the sole started becoming unglued. On the inside edge of the sole there is 1/4" flap that peels off and gets caught! Very disappointing. I love the shoes, but will need to mail it back. A friend with the same shoe said it happened to her right away, too, and she keeps gluing it.

These shoes are awesome! I teach classes and have plantar facitis and these shoes have really helped. They are very cushiony in the heel. I haven't had a pair of mid high shoes in a while and I really like the extra support they give. I will be buying these again!

This is my second pair. That says it all!!! I have all kind of problems with my feet. I have been working out for over 35 years doing step, or weights or some type of studio class. These shoes hug my feet and support while having a great cushion. Would recommend them for any type of gym classes. Feel great on my feet.

I returned the pair of Ryka N-Gage Studio Mid because the tongue was defective; it would not lay flat on top of my foot and it kept bunching up. I have ordered several of these same shoes, or similar styles, in the past couple of years and have found that Ryka is inconsistent in sizing and quality. You might have to keep trying until you get a good pair. It also seems that every year Ryka cheapens the product and cuts corners. For example, they poorly redesigned the outer heel so that the rubber starts to peel away after a couple months. I kept my older Rykas, even though they are worn out, because they were made so much better. I have hard-to-fit feet and wear orthotics, so I don't have many choices and I keep going back to Ryka, hoping to get a decent pair. Fortunately, Zappos makes the return process very easy, so bless their hearts!

 |  | I can't thank you enough! I have always had a difficult time finding comfortable shoes because I have a very narrow foot. I now have a medical foot issue that has progressed to the point of needing to replace nearly all of my shoes with relatively flat, well-made (translation: expensive) shoes to enable me just to walk without excessive pain. Needless to say, it is difficult to know immediately if a given shoe will both fit my narrow foot and not cause a great deal of pain after an hour of wear. Your free-return policy has been a true blessing to me. It is not easy to spend $170.00 on a pair of shoes that may hurt my feet after an hour and be unwearable if those shoes cannot be returned easily. The specialty shoe store in my area is great, but they offer a limited selection and any special orders can only be returned with a 15% restocking fee. Other online shoe stores require me to pay the return shipping fee and cannot begin to match the customer service that you provide. This can get costly and time consuming when one has the type of issues I have and needs to replace an entire wardrobe of shoes with well-built shoes. I have to say, even if I did not have foot issues, Zappos would be my shoe store for the selection and great customer service alone. Additionally, you offer such quick shipping, the best customer service I have found in as long as I can remember and great selection. I am incredibly happy that I was told about Zappos. You have simplified this part of my life, and believe me, with my foot pain, that is a very large part of my life. I have written other thank you notes to Zappos as well, but I wanted to send a special note of thanks for the quick shipping. I will continue to rave about Zappos to friends and family!
