I absolutely love these shoes. They are great for the high impact aerobics classes I take. Per the advice of others, I ordered 1/2 size larger than I normally wear and I am happy with that decision. Zappos shipped immediately and I will definitely order from them again in the future.

I bought two pairs of Ryka Studio D sneakers and they were both unusually stiff and inflexible. In the past, I bought these same sneakers directly from Ryka and they were perfect. I'm questioning if Zappos is selling inferior quality because Ryka supplies them with seconds or shoes that have been sitting on the shelf for a long time. I paid at least $20 less through Zappos. In this case, maybe you get what you pay for? I'm considering returning both pairs.

I love these shoes. Wear them for zumba and kickboxing. I purchased both the black and the grey pairs and both are equally comfortable. Highly recommend them.

I already owned a pair of these sneakers and wear them in my Jazzercise classes so I knew that I loved them. I got them for less through Zappos than I could get them through my Jazzercise center. These are great aerobic shoes!

I have lived in clogs the last 5 years. When I started Zumba these would not suffice. Nike was what our instructor used, but she needed inserts. I searched online & found these. I ordered 1 size larger & it was too big. I called them and they sent me a smaller size & told me to try them on side by side & send back the one I did not want. They paid the postage. My regular size worked well; I do have wide feet. They work very well for Zumba. They are very comfortable. I expect I could line dance & jitterbug in these, too.

Very comfortable shoes. I knew they would be as they are especially designed to fit a woman\'s feet rather than a scaled down version of a men\'s athletic shoe.

New Zumba shoes! I ordered the Granite/Gunmetal/Vanilla ones on Sunday and they showed up Tuesday, even without expedited shipping. These shoes are super cute and feel great!

I ordered the Ryka studio D shoes for zumba classes and they are awesome! I ordered a size up, which was recommended by the other reviews I was reading and they fit perfect! I ordered the grey colored shoe and have gotten lots of compliments! Another plus, they shipped really fast; it only took 3 days!

These shoes are fantastic! I use them for zumba and they make such a difference. They are very light on your feet. They also have great lateral movement support and the tread is perfect for any kind if turning moves. I have recommended these to many friends and would buy them again. They are sized a bit on the smaller side so I wear thinner socks with them.

I bought these for Zumba class. The first time I wore them I thought my feet were going to fall off, but after that they have been great. I chose these instead of a traditional dance sneaker so I could wear them for other classes and regular workouts. Good shoe and good price.

I bought the Ryka Studio D for Zumba class. At first they felt a little tight, but once I changed to lighter socks, they were fine. I have been wearing them for over 3 weeks now and I love them. They are light on my feet and allow me to salsa, merengue, etc. without any problem. I would order them again.

I wear these for Jazzercise two nights a week and I love them. I have wide feet, and although they do not come in wide, they still fit perfectly and after a couple times of wearing them to break them in, they feel great.

These dance shoes are great. The arch support is a little weak, but overall they work great for my Zumba class!

Not enough arch support for my taste. Feet get a little sore with a typical studio class like step or dance aerobics. Great outer soles, though! Perfect for turning and not getting caught on a big tread.

This is my third pair of Ryka Studio D. I use them for my hip hop class and zumba! Great for dance classes because of the pivot point on sole. I love these and recommend them to anyone taking fitness classes. I do wear a half size larger in all Ryka shoes so order accordingly.

I do Zumba classes 3 times a week, and I initially bought these for that purpose. Well they are wonderful! they are light, supportive and well made. I love them. I have a flat wide foot so I went up a size, but the fit is perfect. As a matter of fact this is my second pair!

I like wearing comfortable footwear, particularly like having a few pairs of sneakers handy. Didn't want to spend too much on this one so went in for the Ryka Studio D. They are definitely value for money. They are moderately cushioned (not as much as my other more expensive Nikes), light to wear and look nice.

I've never bought Rykas before, but I'm really happy with these! I have the gray pair and love how they look with jeans. My feet are pretty big, and I am so pleased that they don't look like boats in these shoes. If you need a lot of arch support, there isn't a lot. But the tongue is padded, so I find that the ball of my foot and my toes (both typically problem areas for my feet) are very cushioned.
