Customer Reviews Ryka Enhance™

I have found that Ryka makes the best shoes for Jazzercise. A new pair of sneakers is recommended every 100 classes. I have purchased at least 8 different pairs in the past 6 years. Ryka rules!

These are comfy and well ventilated. I wear them for Zumba. I wish they had a bit more arch support, but I think I probably require some inserts, so not sure I can really blame my achy arches on the shoe.

Very comfortable with good support. A bit unattractive but serve their purpose. Ryka have always been a good brand of sneakers and worth the cost. Very satisfied.

Great shoe! I gave it 4 stars because I would have preferred it to be more cushy. I have it about a month now, and use it every day for intense exercise (I'm an instructor), it performed great so far: supportive and light! If it will survive another month, I shall get another pair!

I bought this shoe because of good reviews on it for a jazzersize class. It did not work for me for my jazzersize class. I think it might be because of the indoor/outdoor carpet they have at the church I take the class at. I found I couldn't slide or pivot very well with it. Also the high top at the ankles felt really weird. I did find the shoe worked better for my step aerobic class at a gym with a wood aerobic floor, so all was not lost. It does seem like Ryka shoes are not made as well as they used to be, they just seem to be made cheaper. I have a narrow foot and a lot of brands don't work for me. I normally wear a 7 1/2 shoe and I took an 8 with this shoe, like I normally do with a workout shoe. It has good arch support and cushioning.

I must say they are very comfortable but I can also say the quality of Ryka has gone downhill. These shoes "squeak" from the time I bought them.

I needed new shoes for Zumba and since I could not find the Ryka Studio Flex-mid anymore I decided to try the Enhance because they looked similar to my old shoes. Well the tongue on the right shoe is definitely shorter than the other side but I could not tell that that would be a problem until after I wore the shoes. The first time I wore them to class I had to constantly pull the tongue up. I thought maybe I had laced them up incorrectly but when I checked they were laced up right. I did not wear them again for another two weeks and decided to give them another try but I had the same problem. Because the tongue was short, the top of the shoe kept cutting into the top of my foot. I cannot return the shoes because I already wore them. So I am bummed and I am still wearing my old Studio Flex-mid.

I believe these shoes were labeled incorrectly. I wear a 10.5 and these shoes measured almost 2 inches shorter than my other pairs. I was disappointed but have tried a new style of Ryka and so far so good!

shoe sizes runs small. I normally wear a size 10 and I ordered a size 10.5. I could barely get the shoe on. Very dispapppointed because I like the style of the shoe but I don't a size 11 will fit either.

Wow, I don't know what they did to these shoes since I last ordered them but I hate them. They feel as hard as a rock, no cushion, my feet hurt with the least amount of impact, and the rubber is already detached from the show. I don't know Ryka does this; they have a good design and they're always changing it--and never for the better.

This is a very nice looking shoe, very similar design to my previous Rykas. But these run *very* narrow and short. I am a true 7.5 shoe size and these are right against my toe and are very snug on the foot. I haven't had this problem with Rykas before, they've always had plenty of toe room and I could put at least an arch support orthotic in, but not with these. I will be returning this pair.

I have been searching and searching for shoes to wear for Zumba. I thought I had finally found them with these shoes - but they did not work. I like the style and that is about it. The main thing that bothers me is that they are way too slippery on the floor. I guess they are meant to be that way for dancing, quick turns, pivots, etc. But when I need to be in a still position they slide around. Also the tongue on the shoe just irritates me and I have to keep fixing it. I am sorry to say that I am returning them. The search goes on!

I ordered these to check out as potential Zumba shoes, especially after reading all of the great reviews. When trying them on, I immediately could tell that they wouldn't work for me. There was very minimal cushioning, and with a narrower toe box, my toes hit the end of the shoe. They just paled in comparison to the comfort and support of a pair of Ryka Synergy shoes that I also ordered.

Worst soles ever. The black part separates from the rest of the sole. My first pair lasted 2 weeks..this pair Ive worn for 5 months and the separation began after 2 months. I am going to try to contact a representative to see if we can do anything at this point since its been 5 months since the purchase date.

Felt this shoe was a real let down after wearing Ryka Studio Shoes for at least 20 years. It was a high top which I liked, but the show is more mesh than leather and I did not feel like I had much support. If you do high impact Jazzercize or aerobics, this is NOT the shoe for you!
