Had to change styles because the previous one was not available but so far this shoe seems to accommodate my orthotic and give me the support I need and the comfort

I love tyka's for teaching my high-impact classes. I think the Devotion shoe is perfect for teaching. I do like the Devotion plus almost just as much. The support and cushion are the best out of shoes out there.
I really really wish the devotion shoes would have a pivot point on the bottom. The Ryka shoes that have them are not supportive enough.

Good for exercise, comfortable and sturdy. Bottom did peel off after a few months, so not as durable as I would have liked.

Super comfy, if not a wee bit mushy. That makes them perfect for everyday comfort and lightweight workouts, but a little too much gel/padding means you may lose touch with ground for high-traction activities.

I am a Jazzercise instructor and have been wearing Ryka shoes for years and love them! I tried this shoe based on the reviews regarding cushioning and shock absorption and the style and color. They are super cute! While they do live up to those accounts and are some of the most comfortable shoes I have ever put on, I noticed immediately that they did not provide enough side to side support. I felt like my foot was sliding over the outside sole of the shoe during certain movements. I currently have a pair of the Dynamic 2 Training shoe and will be ordering another pair as this style provides much more support needed for my high impact classes. Although this shoe did not work for me, I would recommend them to anyone who is looking for an extremely comfortable shoe and has a workout routine does not include high intensity side to side movements.

I haven't worn these a lot yet. I've been experimenting with different orthotics in them since the arch support is not quite enough for me. Also I have a very narrow heal and they slip a little on the heal, but not enough to not wear them for exercise class and pickle ball.

Very comfortable shoe, right out of the box. More arch support than any other shoe I've ever worn. Unfortunately, the nice, springy feeling didn't last more than a week, but still a comfortable walking shoe.

Love the cushioning of this shoe, although it doesn't have enough of an arch support. My heel doesn't slip as in most shoes, could be a little wider in the toe area. Have used Ryka slip on casual shoes in the past, and would recommend trying different styles in this brand. They are truly made for women.

Like walking on pillows - super comfortable! I am not in love with the accent colors, but for the comfort I can live with it.

These are comfortable and fit like a glove. They have moderate arch support, if you have high arches like mine. It was not quite enough arch support for me, but better than other comparable shoes. I walk a lot and they are comfortable throughout my walk. Two things regarding sizing: I have a narrow foot and they are just right for my width; in dress and casual shoes, I wear a 6.5 and ordered an 8 in this shoe and it was perfect. This was a good purchase and value for the price.

I really loved this shoe!!
The shock absorbent is truly amazing!
However this is a walking shoe and not meant for high intense aerobic exercise.
The right shoe rubbed my ankle not sure if it was a defect .
I had to send them back.
I wish they would make a high-intensity cardio shoe with this shock absorbing style.

I love the grey/green/pink color of this shoe. I really has great cushioning but seemed alittle on the narrow side in the toe area. I wear a size 8.5 B and a larger size i don't think would help but maybe a wider width? I didn't keep, sent back.

You can definitely feel the arch support with these shoes. They are a little clunky, but I think it is because I am used to wearing just running shoes. That being said, I do not think that I would ever want to wear them for a long run. They almost feel like they add some height, but I think that is because of how much support is in the shoes. I do feel like I could sprain an ankle like if I was wearing heels, but I am getting used to them. I really wore down my other gym shoes, so I think that I am just used to no support at all. I have very wide feet and they are almost wide enough to fit my feet, which is way more than most shoes, so I will be keeping them. They are comfortable for walking around in.

Shoe is very comfortable and true to size. Works well for multiple kinds of exercise - not just walking. I use it for zumba and strength training. One observation: my foot seems to slip a bit during quick lateral moves but this is minor. It took me so long to find the right shoe, I may just buy another pair!

After searching for hours online, I finally chose Ryka Devotion. Love at first sight! Ordered in my size, 10 Wide, and tried them on when they arrived. Although they fit lengthwise, they were so narrow, my feet felt pinched. I really had to work to get them on! Alas, I am returning them. :-( I so desperately wanted to own these shoes! They are so snazzy looking-- but I MUST have comfortable walking shoes!

This is my second pair. I found the shoes comfortable and easy to walk in. The only downside is that the soles wore out relatively quickly in my opinion. However in spite of that small detail these are great shoes. I had to order 1/2 size bigger than my usual size.
