From the very first step, these shoes just feel wonderful. I'm very pleased with them and have enjoyed walking and working out in them.
I have a wide foot and should've gotten the wide but bought the medium in these. They still fit fine but the wide would've probably been better.

I work 12 hr shifts and these shoes are amazing. It's like they were a custom design for my foot. I just ordered my second pair. Be good to your feet and get these shoes, your feet will thank you!

My Ryka Crosstrainers are great - took them to a 14-day trip to Italy, walked 3-4 hours each day and they were comfortable every step of the way!
Will probably buy them again when the current pair gets too worn.

When I first put this shoe on, I knew that it would be comfortable and have support. I went for a 5 mile walk and could have walked further!

These shoes are very comfortable and super cute! One cautionary note, however - in my experience, Ryka shoes do run about 1/2 size too small. I normally wear a size 8 in athletic shoes but I need a 8.5 in Ryka.

This is my second pair of Ryka Devotion sneakers. I am very fussy when it comes to choosing a sneaker. I love these sneakers so much. They are so so comfortable and constructed very well. I am a walker so these are the perfect sneaker.

Love the look of this shoe. I usually wear a Nike 9.5. I had to go up a half a size in the Ryka and when the 10 arrived it was just too wide guess I am back to Nike! I sure wish Nike had a shoe that looked this good!

This is by far the most fabulous shoe ever. Every step is a Soft comfortable step. NO MORE FOOT PAIN ! YEAH... only draw back is they run small so buy a 1/2 size bigger. This is not a complaint, just exchange it next time you'll know you're size.. PLEASE, Don't stop making this show Kittycatz

These are the best workout shoes I've ever had (and I've had a lot!). I normally wear Asics running shoes for my workouts (bootcamp, kickbox, jazzercise, walking, etc). However, tried these for a change and they are far better than the Asics I had (or any other Rykas I've tried). I am very picky when it comes to my shoes & my size is hard to find (11 wide). I do high impact workouts so need lots of cushioning in the front of the foot. These shoes meet all my needs. Please do not stop making and selling these shoes Ryka and Zappos. They are perfect! Very great style and colors, too. Highly recommend!

I love these shoes! I have plantar fasciitis and these shoes have so much cushion and support - they are wonderful! I know the description says that they are for walking but I have started a couch to 5k program using these shoes and my feet are feeling great. I highly recommend these shoes for anyone who needs an extra supportive shoe. In athletic shoes, I always order a half-size up from my "normal" size of 8.5. The 9W was a perfect fit for me.

This is my 3rd pair of devotion walking shoes. I am totally sold. They are so comfortable & cushion your entire foot. I do extensive walking up & down hills. These shoes make every step a dream.

These shoes are awsome. It's as if one was walking on pillows. The soles of the shoes have diamond shaped puffs that make your feet feel cushioned. The style and colors are designed to reflect in the dark, but they are not overly colored, and don't make you feel that you are wearing "clown" shoes.

These ran wide. Very comfortable. Wound up keeping them for work (I stand all day) instead of for Zumba, which was what I ordered them for. I bought New Balance WX711 for Zumba and Folk Dance use. These have more support and are cushier.

The devotion is my go to shoe! Please don't ever discontinue it! I used these for about a year as a general cross training shoe before I realized it was technically a walking shoe, makes sense because the forefoot padding rocks! That is why I like this shoe. It is in my rotation of crossfit shoes. I play walleyball in them and just general use. Do not use these for Zumba, these are not good for pivoting and quick side to side movements.

Devotion is the only style I've found that has the cushioning and arch support I need. No more heel pain! The re-zorb sole is what makes it so comfortable. Please don't discontinue this style.

I recently decided that I needed more cushioning in my walking and workout shoes (mild arthritis in toes, tenderness in ball of foot). Another brand with gel cushioning gave me comfort around the house and on short walks, but wasn't supportive enough for vigorous activity. Ryka Devotion is fantastically comfortable. It works well for Zumba (no trouble with turns on a wood floor, but I don't do jumps) and treadmill or elliptical workouts, as well as long walks. There is plenty of room in the toebox and the heel fits snugly without irritating my Achilles tendon. It does run small. I wear a 6.5 in dress shoes, but I needed a 7.5 in this shoe. Wish it was available in lighter colors too.

I bought these for walking around my neighborhood and at the gym, also some elliptical trainer use. They're very comfortable and cute! Since I read that they run small, I bought a 9 and I usually wear an 8.5. They fit perfectly.

Ahhhh...these shoes are the best cross trainers I've found! I have had problems with achilles tendonopathy and arthritic changes in my feet, so I need really good support or I suffer. I work out with Zumba, boot camp, running, kick boxing, and total body strength. I was hoping one shoe would be good for all of them and these are! The lateral support is excellent, the cushion is like pillows, and there is no uncomfortable pressure on my achilles. I wear a 7.5 in regular shoes and either an 8 (Asics) or 8.5 (Brooks) in my workout shoes. I needed an 8.5 in these. Highly recommend these!

This is the second pair of "Devotions" I've ordered. I love the cushioned area under the ball of my feet. These are great and hold up well.

These shoes like my other Devotion shoes are great. I had neuroma surgery two years ago. I put an insert in the shoes to give more support and with that and the comfortable cushion these shoes are excellent.

These shoes are incredibly comfortable!!!! For walking and everyday wear they are just splendid. If you are looking for shoes for Jazzercise or Zumba, these aren't the best choice though. They are so well cushioned that they are not nimble enough for dance. I have always ordered my workout shoes 1/2 size larger than my dress shoes. This pair was no exception .
