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've been using Ryka N-Gage Studio for years. They're a very light shoe, but extremely sturdy. They'll also give you excellent ankle support. A great shoe for step aerobics! A wonderful shoe for the price!

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.

This is my second pair of N-Gage Studio Mid which I wear exclusively for Jazzercise. They are comfortable, durable, lightweight and the price is very reasonable. Hopefully, Ryka will continue to make and Zappos will continue to offer this great shoe. More color combinations would be nice too!

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!

The N-Gage is a good shoe. Unlike the newer model by Ryka, it has good support and I find it runs true to size. I plan to order a 3rd pair to store until the ones I have wear out just in case the next design from Ryka is not as good. And Zappos is the best!

This is about the fourth pair of these I've owned and they are terrific. The toe is roomy and the top supports my ankle in studio exercise. I also love how easily Zappos keeps me supplied. Great shoe, great company.

Very comfortable mids that don\'t rub your ankle! Lots of cushioning both inside as well as around the top. BEWARE THAT THEY RUN SMALL - I wear a 6.5 wide in dress shoes, and usually a 7 in sneakers - for these I had to go up to a 7.5. Thankfully Zappos had both sizes available!

This is my second pair of the same shoe style. I reordered because of the support and it is a good fit. The only downside is that white is not available in size six, so I had too order black. I think the black ones are ugly, and they really stand out. Since I use them for regular, and step aerobics and the support as well as the fit are terrific I am stuck with this pair.
