This is the second pair now I've ordered ww size 8 and they are to big. Normally a 8 1/2 wide. Stuck with both pair because I wore them. They don't fit the same as the regular devotion ww.

Purchased in November and the heel fabric quickly tore, making the shoes uncomfortable. I have worn Rykas for years and typically purchase 3-4 pairs a year. I was so disappointed by the quality of this shoe, I replaced them about a month ago with a different brand altogether and will make me think twice about future Ryka purchases

The fit was just fine. But on my left foot it felt as though the shoe was pushing in on my foot, like it wanted to force me to pronate.

I bought these shoes 2 months ago for a trip to Europe. Investors been delighted with them, walking many miles every day for three weeks. These shoes have really been great for walking on cobbles with a bad back. Today something was flopping on my foot, thought I'd stepped in gum. To my horror, one of the shoes I have been loving lost its sole. Just peeled right off! After only wearing them three weeks! And they weren't cheap! So yesterday 5 star shoes, couldn't be better. Today 1 star.

Lining in the heel cup wore through very quickly, allowing hard heel cup to rub and cause blisters.

I was so disappointed in these shoes. I bought the mid blue in my regular size 10 M. They fit great and looked great, but the right shoe was defective, tilting towards the inside so I returned them and bought the same shoe again thinking it was just a defective pair, but the second pair had the same problem. Then I started pouring through reviews on various sites and came across too many that said the shoes started falling apart within weeks of purchasing them. Come on, Ryka. Seriously? I'd rather pay more for a good pair of well-fitting shoes that last, than buy cheaper shoes that fall apart quickly. Won't be buying Ryka again, and that's too bad since they really do make a well-fitting shoe for women's feet.

I need a good pair of walking shoes with arch support and bought the Devotion X in Mid Blue. They fit really well and have good arch support, which I need, but the right shoe was crooked and listed towards the inside. The left shoe was fine. I returned them and ordered another pair in the same color thinking it was just a defective pair, but the second pair had the same problem. This is so disappointing as this company has such a great premise of designing shoes around women's feet, and the shoe really did fit well and was very comfortable. There was no slipping in the heel, plenty of room in the toe box with great arch support and cushioning. Unfortunately, they seem to be making cheap shoes. I was going to try a different style, but there were so many reviews saying that the shoes fall apart quickly that I decided against it. I would gladly pay more for a well-built shoe that fits well and is durable. It's too bad that Ryka decided to go the cheap route instead of making quality shoes that last.

I wanted to love these shoes but after wearing them for a short time I noticed the right shoe was causing my ankle to roll inward which in turn caused horrible knee pain. To me it seemed like a flaw in how the shoe was put together. The left shoe was fine. I returned them.

Will never buy another Ryka sneaker - quality control and general quality of my last pair was horrible. When I received the shoes, there were different size shoelaces on each shoe, and one was so short it barley tied. Each shoe felt different and a couple/few months into wearing them (light use around the house, don't go out much at all), the right shoe completely came apart. The upper separated from the bottom of the shoe. Left shoe is completely ok, I've never had this happen before with any shoes. Now I need to find a different brand. :-(

This is a beautiful shoe and very comfortable. However!! The problem is the mesh and I wish I had pictures. I am returning the third pair of this shoe. The problem with the first two pairs was the mesh stretching out over the sole. The third pair there is a buckle in the mesh of one shoe. I still love Ryka but will not purchase another pair that features mesh _:(

I have always loved my Rykas but sadly after wearing these 1x, I am returning them. The shoe laces go through loops, not actual holes and the second time I went to put them on, I noticed the loop was torn. Not sure if I will reorder another style because otherwise these were great. Ryka, please reconsider this design.

My narrow heel needs the extra eyelets that New Balance sneakers have. Also, I felt as though I was being pitched forward in the shoes. Very good-looking, but uncomfortable.

I have had other Ryka sneaker type shoes in 8 or 8.5 wides. This model I got in 8 wide; it seems shorter than usual, has a terrible odor, but more importantly, I got this style because the front has no extra stitching or pieces of fabric/plastic/whatever which I was afraid would rub on my bunion. The problem is with the tongue (left shoe), inside where it ends (near the toe area), is "lumpy" (it might be a sewing problem only on this shoe, or glue or ?), and rubs on the bunion. Very uncomfortable. So it's going back and the search continues.

These shoes were very comfortable at first, wear out very quickly which was surprising. Love the airy feel of the mesh on top of the foot, which helps to keep your feet from getting too warm.

This shoe was to narrow and very long. I did not try to get my foot in the shoe. I order size 10 m.

The sole is so soft the shoe has no stability. I rolled off the shoe test walking across the kitchen tiled floor.

These shoes were obviously worn before. One of the loops was already torn and the soul looked filthy. Not what I'm used to when I buy from Zappos. Very disappointing.

They do run narrow so I ordered wide which worked. The right shoe tilts in and causes knee pain. I wish I would have looked at reviews closer because it seems there is a reported defect in right shoe.

Tried 3 different pairs, all 3 pairs, the right shoe over pronates. This will do harm to the body if used as a walking shoe. Poor quality for it's advertised purpose.

Great feel for three days and then developed severe shin splints. Went back to the old shoes and they went away. Would return them but felt so good the first couple of days that I threw the box away. So now will donate them to one of the local shelters. Would not recommend them.
