Customer Reviews Ryka Devotion

I love these shoes. I have them in every color. I have been wearing them for aerobics for many years and my feet feel great after working out. I got the wide width this time to accommodate bunions and the shoes are very comfortable - no rubbing or squishing my toes.

Perfect walking shoe, and I have tried them all. These are super-lightweight, good arch support and stylish. I have a high instep, so I can barely get the laces to tie -- it will be easy to replace them with longer ones. I wish they came in different body colors.

Just tried these on for the first time and love them!! Was only going to get one pair, but now may get two different colors! Feels like you’re walking on a soft playspace mat. Very comfy!

When Ryka Devotion was restocked in my size (6.5 w) I bought 3 in different colors. However, the black/violet/detox blue was slightly smaller than the chrome silver/blue/orange and the chrome silver/lime/atomic pink, which were comfortable right out of the box and great for walking. I am keeping the black as I think they will stretch out as I wear them. Too bad all the colors are not exactly the same! I love Ryka Devotion and hope this shoe will continue to be available. As always, Zappos gave great service and shipped them really fast.

These are awesome! My feet were aching hours after putting my shoes on but now with these shoes my feet dont even hurt at the end of the day!

I contacted Ryka for a recommendation for walking sneakers for someone with flat feet (me!). They recommended this shoe, and they are correct. It was very comfortable from the first time I put it on, and I was able to walk a couple of miles without my legs getting tired, which is what I was trying to avoid. But the star in all this is Zappo's -- I had to try on three different sizes to find the right one. Zappos quickly shipped me each size as I asked, and is taking back the ones I don't want. But I am buying another pair just in case Ryka decides to change this shoe.

I was recently diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis, and it has been particularly bad in my feet and toes. This pair is one of only two pairs of athletic shoes that work for me right now. Here's a list of qualities I like about them: - Wide toe box that doesn't squeeze my feet, which tend to swell at the widest part - Cushioned sole that doesn't hurt my toes and forefoot, which are the most tender parts of my feet - Arch that support doesn't hit my forefoot (I have extremely high arches, so I either don't feel a support at all, or it hits in the wrong place and hurts my forefoot. BTW, don't pay attention to my arch support rating - I often can't feel it, even if there's a lot of support) - Long enough laces that I can significantly loosen the shoes around my swollen feet - Fashionable/normal-looking for a 26 year old to wear (they don't look like my grandmother's orthopedic shoes) I got two color schemes: Frost Gray/Metallic Steel Gray/Coral and Chrome Silver/Nirvana Blue/Tang. The pink fabric inside the shoe and the laces for the Frost Gray/Metallic Steel Gray/Coral are A LOT brighter than they look online, so they make more of bold statement than I intended. The Chrome Silver/Nirvana Blue/Tang scheme looks like it does online and goes with a lot of different outfits in my wardrobe. Overall, very comfortable for arthritic feet.

BEWARE: Ryka has a few different shoes called "Devotion". Make sure you get the ones with RE-ZORB RESPONSIVE CUSHIONING. I have severe arthritis in both knees and these are the only shoes I can wear. I do not run in them, but I walk and bike. I went through 6 other brands of shoes - none gave the comfort of this shoe. I do wish it was slightly wider (I bought a half size up and Wide width). I was very confused by the other "Devotion" shoe - it is light weight, has a flimsy tongue, not much cushioning and not much support. I don't know how to tell the difference when ordering, but the RE-ZORB is something to look for.

I love these shoes! I have back problems and after walking around all day usually my feet are killing my and so is my back but these shoes have been so helpful. My feet no longer ache after walking around.
