I ordered these shoes a half size larger, yet they we're still too tight. The other problem is that I have a high instep, and these were hard to get on the way the Saucony Hattoris are. The elastic laces don't open wide enough for me to get into these shoes easily. Too bad, otherwise they are very pretty and comfortable.

The shoe is very comfortable and cushioned. It feels like it will slip off sometimes, but they never have. I could use more arch support and I would not recommend for indoor cycling. Good for cross training, indoor machines and group exercise classes as well as weight lifting. Fun to wear!

I was part of a wear test group and felt the shoes were great although they did not provide as much support and lateral stability as I would like to see in a shoe. They are very comfortable, but did tend to rub in the heel area for me.

These shoes were hard to get on my foot and just felt very uncomfortable. They might be great for someone else but just not right for me. The quality of the materials seemed good and they weren't real heavy.

Very comfortable but not enough support for aerobics! Reminded me of an aquatic shoe and fit like a glove on my foot. Very lightweight. Wish they worked out because they really did feel great!

These are the best sneakers for the gym! I swear they make me better at Zumba! I have a wide foot but since they weren't available I tried the regular and they're perfect. I don't think there is enough arch support for long walks but they don't claim to be walking shoes so I won't go down a star!

These shoes feel awesome for running and are great on pavement. My only complaint is they don't have much traction so when I go to Crossfit and we do our warm ups or agility stuff I slide around on the smooth concrete. Other than that they are very comfortable and I really do recommend them to anyone who wants a barely there shoe with great support.

These are the best shoes I have found for my flat feet. They are very light weight and do not hurt my feet when working out. Great shoe!

I love love this shoe. Comfort and coolness. This shoe is perfect for my needs!

These shoes are wonderful! I am a beginner runner and have tried many shoes that are comfortable to run in and these are the winner! I ordered a half size larger than my normal shoe size and they fit perfectly. Little toe wiggle room at the end and my feet felt like they were being hugged gently during my run! They are super light and not to mention the color aqua mist is stunning!

These are beautiful shoes. And unlike other super light-weight shoes, there's adequate padding on the sole.

They are the most comfortable shoes that I have found for Jazzercise! I usually wear a 4 and 1/2 but these fit great. I did have to put tie up laces in to make the fit a little bit snug.

This is a light weight, flexible shoe with Ryka's wider footbed. The heel is constructed with a strap around the outside of the shoe, and this helps give more stability. This shoe has a removable insert and will accommodate a half-length orthotic comfortably--I order half a size up with all Rykas to make room for an orthotic insert. You cannot adjust the laces. It takes a bit of a pull to get these on and the fit is snug but comfortable.

These are wonderful shoes. They fit like skin -- not tight, but just right. The support and cushioning is far more comfortable than the Merrell Pace Glove. I could walk in these for days. If you want to try a transitional style shoe toward minimalist, these are the best I've tried. The styling is a bit space suit-like, but not unattractive -- just a bit different, especially in the aqua color. The material is very breathable, and I was delighted to discover that they seem to be water resistant: I walked through very wet grass and never felt moisture on my feet. Ryka does a fantastic job of accounting for the differences of a woman's foot and gait from a man's.

I love these shoes! They are like wearing a pair of gloves on your feet with protection on the bottom. I am a 78 year old woman and can't do anything about being an old lady but I can do something about being an old lady in white tennis shoes - with these! Get so many compliments and they feel good!

Brands I'd also recommend: more Rykas

I love these shoes! I bought them in order to transition to barefoot running shoes and they have been perfect. The shape easily allows you to run more on your forefoot than your heel. I was worried that my foot might slip out at the heel since they just slip on, but it doesn't.

Fit okay for wide feet and with no laces makes easy on/off, but didn't like the look. Pretty bulky, I felt.

OMG---first shoes I have ever owned that I don't want to take off! I live in thongs but needed a full shoe for serious walking. This shoe is heaven from the first moment it felt like a old worn soft leather glove with a foam rubber sole. :) I removed the insert for a looser fit since I am not accustomed to the feel of a shoe over the top of my foot but will save it for when the shoe loosens up.

These are so comfortable. They also work great as a water shoe. I just wish they came in colors that would go with my "not so fitnessie" clothes. Like a plain white or gray or blue. I'd buy another pair!

I love these shoes and their water resistant quality. Since buying these shoes I find it hard to wear any other sneakers. My only complaint is that they wear down quickly. I walk in these shoes for 8 hours a day 5 days a week and after a month I had completely worn through the soles. Also when running on dirt/gravel sticks and pebbles sometimes get caught in the soles.

I'm not crazy about these shoes. They are more like water shoes. They are very elastic and clingy. There's no room for socks, and my feet get a little clammy. I have other Rykas that I like better. The sole is very spongy.

These shoes run incredibly small. I usually wear a size 8 and the 8 1/2 in this shoe was very tight. I would recommend a full size or size and a half bigger.

I bought these shoes last December. I have worn them twice. I ordered my normal size (7) and felt like they were too tight (shoes must slip on). I exchanged them for a 7.5 because they do NOT tie up and I needed to be able to get them on. Now they are too big. I have been using my old shoes for ~ 5 months. Just bought a new pair. Wasted my money with these.
