Customer Reviews Ryka Revive 2™

I bought these to replace a pair of Sketchers Shape-Ups which I realized don't do anything other than make you walk funny (no toning, no weight loss, all BS). Plus the dog had chewed them, which I took as a blessing in disguise and just the excuse I needed to look for another pair. I had never heard of Ryka brand before so I really didn't know what to expect. Apparently, their thing is that they are designed for women in that they tend to have a narrower heel and a wider ball. I wasn't totally convinced but figured I'd try them anyway. After some breaking in, I have to say I really enjoy these shoes. The first couple I days I thought the heel was a bit too tight, but after wearing them they've conformed more to my foot and fit much more comfortably. Arch was higher than normal sneakers, but that works for me as I do have high arches. Cushioning is good, I don't feel any rocks or pebbles when I walk on them. I use them to walk to the 2x a day and they've been far and away much more comfortable then the Sketchers. And I just love the colors- I'm a big sucker for red/fire colors. I would buy this brand again.

I am a beginning runner. I run about 3 hours a week, track and trail. my regular shoes were hurting my feet (arches and heels) so I started to do research. I had no idea where even to start or what I was looking for. Thank you Zappos for educating me. All the info you need on what shoes to get is right here. I saw great reviews on these shoes and for the price... you can't beat it! These shoes feel great. You can actually feel the air flow through the top. I don't notice too big of a difference when running but my feet do not hurt at all when I am done. I'm 6.5 in heels and 7 in tennis shoes. I ordered the same size I normally wear and they fit perfect. They almost mold perfectly to my feet. Super quick shipping I ordered these on a Friday and they were here by Tuesday! Thanks again Zappos!

Rykas are my main athletic shoe. However, the arch in this shoe hit at the wrong spot. I tend to have this problem with shoes, so it may not affect most other folks. Love the lightweight material and colors!

This was my second pair Ryka's, having the original Revive. After searching brick and mortar stores for what was 'suggested to me' according to my foot pattern (NB, Saucony, Brooks, etc), I decided just to take a chance on these again. I have bunions, I supinate and tend to land on my heel more than my mid-foot. The last pair carried me through about 20 miles per week on my treadmill and through P90X and X2 for at least 9 months. I never developed blisters or soreness from them. I hope these will keep my just as active and my feet happy! (regarding service? I ordered these Saturday afternoon and they greeted me on my doorstep Tuesday afternoon.)

I was a bit worried when I first got these shoes; the craftsmanship looked a bit poor. However, I have since been using them every day. While I am not a huge runner, only running about 2 miles a day, I can't say how they would do on longer runs, but for what I have been doing, they have been great! They fit perfect out of the box, though I did have to get use to all the support that they offer. It was very noticeable how they worked to correct my feet from rolling outwards. I am very satisfied with these shoes and would definitely recommend them to others. Also, on the note of craftsmanship, they are holding together great.

Absolutely love these! So comfortable and make my feet look smaller than they are. Love the colors/style and the comfort! Definitely recommend these! I run in them, as well as low & high intensity workout classes.

These shoes are amazing! No more aches in my knees or shins after a long run. They have great arch support, which for someone with high arches is hard to come by. Very breathable and lightweight. I highly recommend these shoes. Best I've ever purchased.

Fianlly a shoe that is true to size! This is a comfortable shoe and nice looking. Zappos service is fantastic. Fast fast service. I am very pleased with this purchase.

Received in less than two days. Shoes fit perfectly, are light and attractive. My runs are six-miles on pavement and my feet feel fine afterwards with these shoes. My last pair were Under Armor running shoes which were not as supportive.

I was very excited to start running in these shoes, and was not disappointed once they arrived. I like to run sockless, and the mesh that makes up most of the upper foot area allowed for great airflow. Once my run was over I could yank out the insoles, and they dried out very quickly. The colors are pretty cute too!

Love these Ryka's. They are very light and comfortable. I recently started running and experiencing chin pain with my other sneakers. No pain with these. Very happy.

Super light and comfortable, with a great look, all for a great price! I use these for Zumba and calisthenics classes as well as general running on treadmill and elliptical. So far so good! They are extremely breathable and have the perfect arch support for my high arches. I am very happy with my purchase!

These shoes have been great! They are so light and comfortable. This is my first time buying Ryka brand and I will definitely be buying these again.

Great running shoes! I use these shoes for running 2-3 times each week and they are so comfortable. I especially love the extra space at the front of my feet so my toes have enough room. Very breathable as well. I highly recommend.

I always forget to take the time to write reviews but I had to comment about these shoes. I can honestly say these are the most comfortable pair athletic shoes I have ever worn. I love them! Great support too. Note...I used these for walking!

I received product in two days! Great service and love Rykas. This is my fifth pair and I will never wear another kind. I work twelve hour shifts at a hospital and am all over the hospital and these shoes are the best I've found.

Love these Rykas! I bought them right before a trip to Disney. Wore them for hours on end without having to break them in. Extremely comfortable and would buy them again.

I love these shoes. They are super comfy and I was amazed at the price. I will be ordering more Ryka's in the future!

I bought these shoes for my daughter. Her feet are very narrow and she has tiny ankles. She has a hard time with shoes sliding on and off the back of her heels. She loves these shoes! They are a little slimmer than a normal tennis shoe. She says they are very comfortable and feel great on. Great buy! I will buy them again.

Like these shoes very much! I use them for strength class, cross fit, walking, etc. They are very comfortable. I would definitely order this shoe again. Love the color too!

Great shoe for running! They're super comfortable and very lightweight. I love them!

Loved the shoes, fit a woman's foot perfectly.

I found the Ryka Revive 2 to be true to size in both length and width. They are also comfortable walking shoes.

These are the most comfortable shoes that I have ever worn. They are very lightweight, which is a plus.

I have bought both the original Revive and this Revive 2 in gray and teal. At first I thought I would have to return it as the arch bothered me. I have very narrow feet with high arches and had really too much arch in these shoes. I cut the inside wedge of the arch completely out so that the edge of the insole was even with the side of the shoe. That worked perfectly. I wore the shoes for weeks over cobblestones in Spain & Portugal and wear them every day at home. When they get wet, they dry amazingly fast. The leather across the mid-section pulls the shoe snug and gives a lot of support. Great shoe! There are not many shoes for people like myself who are "neutral" and not pronators. Thanks Ryka & Zappos!
