Customer Reviews Ryka Devotion

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.

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.

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!

These sneakers have tremendously helped my back, knees, and heel issues. They are very comfortable! I hope this style will be made for many years.

I just ordered my third pair of these. I have narrow feet and this is the first pair that my feet don't slip side-to-side in. I do cross training and have had all the support I need along with the lightness that allows me to move and jump. I just can't seem to find that combination with any other shoe. Now it looks like these are being discontinued, so I'm in a quandary. Do I order extra pairs or do I try a newer model???

Love, love, love these shoes - I think I have them in every color available. I feel like I'm bouncing on air.

Can't say enough good things about this shoe. Great wide toe box, massive support and cushioning is thick but firm. I sized 1/2 up because I like toe room on downhills and thick socks, but otherwise true to size. Going for a second pair. Ryka rocks.

Love these shoes! I use them for my heavy-bag kickboxing classes and they are awesome. Feels like I'm jumping on clouds. I'm usually between a 8.5 and 9 and sized up to a 9.5 (my usual size for running shoes) and I probably would have been fine with the 9. But they're not too big to bother me. Love them!

This sneaker is by far the best that I have ever worn! I'm so glad I've finally found the perfect sneaker! The arch support is great, the toe area is wide enough, and there is ample cushioning under the ball of the foot, where I tend to have issues and discomfort with most footwear. I like the breathability, and I like the color. I would definitely purchase this shoe again!

I tried 3 other cross training shoes before getting these awesome Rykas! They made me feel like I was floating on air the first three times I wore them. Excellent shoes for Jazzercise. First couple of times had a little problem with shoe sticking to floor & not moving when going side-to-side. This was not a big deal, but wanted to mention it. I tried 2 New Balance & 1 other Ryka and they made my feet hurt. So glad that Ryka finally went back to making W width cross trainers. Recommended these to my friend, who also has wide feet. She bought them too. Finally glad to get a wide pair that are not black as last 2 pairs have been black or grey.

Ordered these after reading a magazine review that they have excellent arch support. I have high arches and narrow heals. I have a hard time finding athletic shoes that give me the support I need. These fit perfectly and give me the support I need. The colors are not the usual garish colors that are out there lately. I'll continue to buy Rykas in the future.

Love these shoes, Love Zappos! usually do fine with medium width with ryka's, but needed to go with wide with my small bunion. Never need to break in ryka's-just put on and go. I stand all day and need support and comfort and these are great.re-ordered the wider width on Tuesday-had them Wednesday!

I love these sneakers. I really need a sneaker with a lot of cushion and these sneakers fit the bill. As another reviewer said, it's like walking on pillows. The soles are a little interesting; I'm curious to see how they hold up.
