I loved these shoes until today when I discovered a hole on the bottom of the right foot. I've only had them for about two months and normal wear and tear shouldn't result in a blowout like I've had them for years like my last pair of Ryka's. Not happy about that but otherwise I love the cushioning. It's superior to any other shoe I've owned.

I have worn Ryka shoes for 10 years. This is the first pair I have put on that is very uncomfortable. Very disappointed.

You get what you paid for - this is a cheap shoe. I ended up with plantar fasciitis after using this shoe a few times.. I do not recommend this for anything but casual wear. Back to Asics.

The Ryka Sport Walker advance was comfortable from when I first put it on. No need to break it in.

For the price you cannot beat this shoe! I ordered up 1/2 size and it was perfect. I am very impressed with Ryka and will order their shoes again for sure.

Ryka has sold out to someone and the shoes are much wider than our previous pairs. We have to return them because they used to the premier place to order narrow tennis shoes, but not anymore.

I am having problems with Plantar Fasciitis. I like the moderately stiff sole of this walking shoe for support. There is enough room for my own orthotics. It's roomy in the toe box.

When these wear out I replace them with exactly the same. Need I say more? They have a roomy toe area and good support for walking distance.

I am very pleased with the Ryka shoes I ordered from Zappos. I received the shoes the next day and they were exactly as shown on-line. I ordered a whole size larger than my regular shoe size, as I always do for fitness shoes, and they fit me perfectly.

Love these shoes! I wear them 5-6 days a week, all day, inside and outside. As a mom of a five-year-old, I do plenty of walking, and these stay comfortable all day.

I love this walking shoe! I wore them from day one - mile one with complete comfort. The toe box is wide and comfortable. The heels seats perfectly without rubbing. These are a good deal!

I purchased these shoes because I needed a good walking & found this shoe. It is outstanding! It's comfortable, lightweight & affordable. I would recommend this shoe for long walks! I want to get another pair.

I'm very happy with this shoe. It's lightweight with good support. Excellent for walking. Nice wide toe box. Hits me at a comfortable place on the ankle (many sneakers come up too high for me). My only issue is that rocks get caught in the bottom as the treads are quite wide. Small issue, though. Overall I'm very happy with these sneakers.

Ryka is without a doubt the very best shoe ever. I have more than one problem with my feet and have tried every brand you can name. Only Ryka! I feel as if someone custom made these shoes just for me.

I absolutely love my shoes and loved the help that Zappos gave me in getting them. I accidentally ordered the wrong shoes and called right away and she could cancel my first order and put in my order right away on the phone and not only did I get my shoes I also got a hand written card from the girl that helped me telling me how much she enjoyed helping me! Nice touch and thank you so very much. Going nowhere else from now on!

Some 15 years ago I went to visit my son. Thinking that I would not be having the time to walk, I did not take my walking shoes. Schedules changed and I ended up with free time and wanted to walk but no shoes. I went to a shoe store and simply told the salesperson I wanted the best walking shoe with good cushioning. Thinking I would be spending a lot, I was surprised when he brought out rather low priced shoes. I bought that pair and have not bought any other brand since. I walk between four miles every week. They are the most comfortable and hold up the best of any shoes that I have ever had. I also have gotten several of my friends wearing them also. I have some of there other styles now too and I am happy with all of them.

Like the shoe and it has lots of cushion support for your whole foot and it is reasonably priced.

I like a walking shoe that is stiff enough to support my ankle well and hold my foot firmly. This is the right shoe for that; and it's not too heavy or too stiff to be comfortable. Thanks, Ryka!

I ordered half a size larger based on previous product reviews and they are perfect. They felt great as soon as I put them on and I put a lot of mileage on my Rykas, walking in them everyday for two weeks. I love them and they area great buy!

Friendly service on the phone. Very fast shipping. Product correct. I am completely satisfied with Zappos.com! I tried on the shoes in a store before ordering and found they ran a half size smaller.

This is the fourth pair I have bought because of the great comfort I get wearing the Ryka Sport Walker for walking long distances. I did order a half size larger than my normal shoe size which fits perfectly with the socks I wear. For me, the best part is that the insoles are removable and the shoe accommodates my custom orthotics comfortably.

Great looking shoe and true to size. I was looking for a walking shoe that was all leather and not mesh so these are perfect.

I love this shoe and my feet do not hurt. I'm wearing them right now. I love this technology as I do have problem feet. I would buy this shoe again, and the price was very good.
