After reading all the reviews I ordered up half a size. They were to long and the toe box instead of being too tight was very wide and uncomfortable. I did not like these shoes.

I wear a 9W or 10W. I ordered the 9½W. The ball of the foot on the shoe is appropriately wide. The toe is tapered in too large a ratio to the ball resulting in a too narrow toe box that does not allow the toes to spread in relation to a wide foot; therefore, the shoe, although correctly sized, are too short and too narrow around the toes. An incredibly bad design. I am very disappointed.

Cute shoe, but the heel is lower than the ball of foot and it made it a difficult to walk (my heel was very sore). I've never had a pair of shoes like that. Not much cushion in the shoe. Definitively not for long term wear in my opinion. I only wore them for a couple of weeks, now they will probably be in my next garage sale for a couple of bucks. I wear Ryka shoes a lot but these just weren't for me.

This shoe is soft and cushiony which is good for sensitive feet, but doesn't have much support. It provides great shock absorption for wearing around the house on hard floors, or for casual wear. They do not have enough support for long walks. I call them my slipper sneakers. I normally wear a size 10, but have to go up a size in Ryka because they run short.

These shoes are comfortable, well-made and fit well, but not perfect like my last pair of Ryka walking shoes. Ryka has recently started using too much mesh in my opinion. It makes the shoes lightweight, but compromises on support. I wish they would use more actual leather. I will also have to save these to wear when the weather is warmer as the mesh is also cold and nearly see-through.

Not enough arch support. I have foot pain in my left foot & these shoes have not alleviated that at all. For me, I need a sturdier shoe for walking. If you do not have any foot pain or any foot issues then I think these shoes would be perfectly fine.
Zappos service was amazing. This is the first time I have ordered from Zappos, I placed my order on a Wednesday evening and the shoes arrived Friday morning, regular ground UPS. Amazing! I would definitely order from Zappos again.

Love Zappos but I have had these shoes for 6 months and they have worn the heel insole out and my heel is in throbbing pain after just a few hours on my feet. I have had New Balance and Skechers for over a year without this problem. Won't order again.

Love the looks of this shoe, and they keep my feet cool. They're not as sturdy or substantial as I was hoping for. If you like a light shoe, this is it.

I have purchased many Ryka sneakers in the past. I think the may run about a half size smaller...but the width is great. This is the first time I ever purchased the mesh top. I walk or run about 3 miles everyday...at least. With this sneaker the mesh started to wear in the 1st week. I had a whole after the first 2-21/2 weeks.

I would recommend a pair without the mesh..I loved my other choices

A longtime fan of Ryka's but these were not what I expect from this brand. Usually, I can wear a pair straight out of the box with ease. This one has a very small back and less floor grip so a little less balanced then most. My real problem was the backs were unusually small so within 15 minutes of walking I had blood blisters on the outside backs of both ankles. A definite return.

I loved the feel of this shoe at first but after walking a few times I found little support and twisted my ankle. Am very disappointed in this shoe. Tried to save money and am ending up spending more on another pair of shoes...of course a different brand.

I was not happy with the looks of the shoe. It looks like a dept store brand. Fit and comfort was satisfactory but nothing special.

I just got these shoes and wore them walking around the house for a while. They fit fine, but the comfort level is very low and even with limited wearing I have a blister on my heel. Will be returning these.

These shoes were very comfortable but flimsy. My previous pair of Rykas was wonderful and lasted two years with heavy wear and tear; these are falling apart after six months.

I thought these were stylish and a good price. I've heard over and over that Rykas are good for Jazzercising, and felt after reading the reviews that this would be a good first pair for me. When I got them, they fit perfectly. However, after wearing them to Jazzercise for the first time, I knew in the first 15 minutes that these were not the shoes for me. I felt like there was zero support, especially for the balls of the feet, which is necessary for a class that has a lot of moves where you are kind of on your toes. I walked out with absolutely aching knees, shins, and balls of my feet. If you need a lot of support and cushion in your shoes, I would not suggest these. I will be going back to my beloved Asics.

I have flat feet and I wear orthotics so I usually buy neutral shoes. These had me over pronating like I was wearing flips flops! Awful, my ankle was just collapsing. Only good if you are walking on level ground, but if you're outside on uneven terrain I was about to twist my ankle. Had to go back. Zappos was great about taking them back worn though!

I had to send these back because they had a hard plastic ridge in the back that made them very uncomfortable to wear. I don't know if this was unique to the pair I received or is the case for the design. In the past, I've ordered Rykas from Zappos.com and been very happy with them, so this was rather disappointing.

Attractive and sporty, but not sized as indicated. I have worn Ryka's for years but in this last year their sizing seems to be wonky. I use a wide for extra room and bulky socks. These were not wide. Sorry to say that I am reluctant to order Ryka shoes in future - just because of the inconsistent sizing. When they fit, they are marvelous. But the last few Ryka's ordered were all off sized (too narrow, too short, etc).
