    Review for RYKA Mid length - I saw a woman wearing the most interesting shoe while we worked out in a class together at the gym. I asked her where she got her shoes, she said, "Zappos". I started my search for a new pair of work out shoes that afternoon. I decided on the RYKA Studio D Mid. I love this shoe. It's great for my thin feet and thin ankles. I have a lot of support and flexibility. I also like the sleek look. What is really cool, is the shoe doesn't weigh much, and that allows me to focus on my work-out, instead of thinking, 'I wish I had a better fitting shoe'. I called and ordered, and the sales rep was friendly, helpful and professional. I am a pretty hard sale on most everything. However, this shoe, and the online Zappos store and it's sales reps, impressed me. I'm happy I finally found a shoe that fits my thin feet, size 7, and supports my ankles when I'm playing basketball with my young son and husband, or doing 45 minutes on the elliptical trainer. Glad I spoke up and asked the lady in my fitness class where shoe got her shoe. I'll be shopping regularly at Zappos. Roslyn Springer Bar Harbor, Maine

    Ryka's Studio D Mid - I like the Ryka sneaker, because I have a narrow Foot and it fits me better than most sneakers. Also, I wear an orthotic because of very flat feet and the Ryka Studio D Mid accommodates them nicely. The higher top is great for ankle support during my step classes.

    Jazzymo - It could be comfortable but I did not want to return. I should have ordered a 1/2 size larger so gave to my daughter. Based on prior reviews I ordered my normal size but it was a bit tight. I would recommend for aerobic exercise but it is not true to size.

    Love the shoes!!! I've had other Ryka shoes, but this has to be my favorite shoe yet. VERY lightweight, great support. It’s a great cross trainer. I wear it for cardio, weights and fitness classes. I'll be ordering these again!

    Great fit and sturdy - I have a slightly wide foot, and this shoe was comfortable from the start - no "breaking in" time. The shoe is very sturdy and great for any aerobic activity. Circles on the treads make spins easy in cardio dance classes. I did need to order 1/2 size larger than normal.

    Great for step aerobics - I do step with a lot of intensity 4 times a week and these are, hands down, the best step shoes I've had. They're light, supportive, and fit my narrow heels without extra socks. Because of the ankle cushioning, they look a little strange on, but that's minor compared with how they feel. I took others' advice and got a half size larger than normal: perfect.

    Sizing is completely different than other RYKA shoes - I always buy the most expensive RYKA which I can find, with the hope they would have the best support. Unfortunately, I thought I will try to get a more stylish shoe, and ordered this one. I had read the other reviews but since they don’t sell 10 1/2, I ordered a 10. I couldn’t even get foot into left shoe. Very NARROW and at least a 1/2 size smaller than their other shoes.

    Perfect! I really love these sneakers. I'm usually a size 5.5/6, but ordered a 6.5. I would go half a size bigger. They are so comfortable and look great. I have been looking for a pair of these for years. I wore them for the first time today to Body Combat, no blisters which is rare for wearing a pair first time!

    Great ankle support - These shoes are very comfortable. There was no break in time. They are fairly true to size, although maybe just slightly small. I love the ankle support for Zumba and step aerobics.

    This is my second pair of Ryka's. I had the low tops before. Ryka's fit well and are really comfortable to work out in. Since I've been wearing the mids and I don't have knee pain any more. They don't need a lot of breaking in.

    The best. These Ryka’s are the best trainers ever, they are so comfortable and light on your feet, but you do have to size up, and the lining does flatten with wear. I ordered these on a Monday afternoon and they arrived the next day at 12:15pm. I did return them on Wednesday and reordered a larger size, they arrived Thursday, and my credit card was credited for the first pair by Friday.

    I purchased these shoes for Zumba and they are by far the MOST comfortable shoes I've ever owned. I may have just spent a lot, but it's money well spent. And I was very pleased with the shipping. I just received these shoes today after ordering them yesterday. I am glad that I read the reviews of previous posters, as I am usually a street size 9 (with a little toe wiggle room) and ordered these in a 9.5. I was a little worried because others had ordered them 1- 1.5 sizes larger than usual, but when I tried them on they fit perfect! They are comfortable and supportive, especially in the ankle area. The only negative (and this comes from my hubby) is the graphics design of the shoe, which he says is "out there" (but if you're like me, you should take this with a grain of salt because fortunately for you, you've never been seen out in public with what HE buys). If you are into Zumba or any other dance/step class like I am and you aren't afraid to spend some extra money, then this is the shoe for you. It certainly is for me!!!

    Just what I was looking for... I bought these for Jazzercise and after wearing them a week I'm really pleased. I first bought the regular studio D's, but with my orthotic in, there was too much heel slippage. I returned them and reordered Studio D mids and they worked out perfectly. They are higher in the ankle and snug up nicely for support, yet they are not super high. These are my first mid height shoes and they don't bother me at all. Movement in class is so much easier with the right shoes. I did order up a half size on these after reading other reviews. My first time ordering from Zappos and they rock! Free upgrade in shipping both times. The second pair they even overnighted.

    Not crazy about them - I loved the way they look but I felt the support had a lot to be desired. The high top I found a little uncomfortable even though the ankle support help (I found it rubbed against your ankle when you moved from side to side).

    Well, I ordered these after reading the reviews... I didn't find most of the true for me... for me the shoe was not supportive enough to do aerobics. I do wear them on the bike but really, you need no support for that workout. I am keeping them, but next time would not order these. I LOVE Zappos though... great site.
