Customer Reviews Ryka Influence

I love these shoes and wished I had found zappos sooner for all of my online shoe needs. I have never had to make a return but am impressed with the return policy as i have fallen victim to a bad return policy on another higher priced shoe place that only had 30 day policy.

These shoes are hands down the most comfortable dance shoes on the market. I'm a true 7.5 medium, and the shoes fit perfectly. Great side support and soles aren't too slippy or too sticky.

These are the best shoes for dance! Not too slippy or sticky. Great support, cushion.

EVERYTHING EXCELLENT ABOUT THIS SHOE! I had a previous pair of Rykas for Zumba and they were fantastic! After trying several other brands, this brand is perfect!!!

Just wore these for theater dance, and they were perfect. I wear a 6WW in sneakers, and a 6WW or D in Easy Spirit products. I got the 6.5 D, and that worked out perfectly. Attractive and great dance support. Would buy again.

I wear them for Zumba and day to day. They hold up really well. My current pair is 2 years old. I just ordered another pair because the airline lost my bag and I don’t want to skip another class.

These are my first Ryka sneaker. I purchased based on other’s positive reviews. I needed a low profile sneaker for a kickboxing class that I just joined. I like these for that purpose because they have side support that keeps my ankles from rolling which happened with running sneakers. I have pretty big feet. Usually wear a 10.5 to 11. I fall in between wide and normal. I purchased 10.5. Fit well. The toe box is comfortable. The style is not the greatest but I only wear them for my class. I don’t know how these perform on a long walk. I would recommend this shoe for indoor classes.

This is a great shoe and very comfortable. It is about 1/2 size too small on my foot. It is also rather narrow at the toe area which makes my two smaller toes rub against the sides. Also when I bend my foot the crease in the area across the top of my toes digs in to my foot which makes it uncomfortable. There is decent arch support and the padding along the bottom of the foot is great for the ball of the foot. Thanks to Zappos I can find my size which is almost impossible in the stores and I appreciate the free return shipping.

These are the only dance shoe my 60+ year old feet can wear to do old school step aerobics. The fit is accurate to my normal shoe size, no need to figure out if I go up or down. I have adequate arch support and they even stay on my narrow heel. I had purchased a half sizie up thinking that’s what size my old shoes were, but my eyes were mistaken. Thank you Zappos for your wonderful customer service and free shipping. You keep my wide, flat, hard to fit feet happy.

Nice style. I needed more arch support and stability. If you don’t, these are great.

SO happy to find shoes for my short wide feet (size 5 D). The toe box is actually shaped like my toes - widest at the little toe. Bought these for cross training and they are superb. Good arch support, light weight yet still with plenty of cushion to jump rope, plus nimble enough for lateral moves. Reasonable price, too.

I wear an 11W, and these 11D's were way too small all over.

These seemed about 2 sizes too small. They were nice and light , I wish they fit me. I wear an eleven so I can't order up.

Ordered this shoe for Zumba. Research for the type of shoe I was looking for showed the sole of this Ryka style to be good for dance moves involved with Zumba/U Jam/HIIT. I ended up with a half size larger - same style - liked the colors. The bigger shoe allowed for orthotics and kept my toe from hitting the front. Great shoe - looking forward to wearing these!

I love these shoes. I wear them to exercise and they are perfect for what I need.

I have been wearing these to my aerobics class and for walking for over two months and love them. they are wide enough for my very wide foot (I take a 6.5 and it's often heard to find nice shoes in that size) and they are comfortable and provide good support. I usually buy New Balance for my class but decided to try something different and glad I did.
