Shipment came very fast. I have never wore this brand but the fit is good. I have using it for a cardio kickboxing class and boot camp. Very impressed, I will purchase this brand again.

Overall the shoe is a nice one for Zumba. I'm able to rotate and pivot but it still isn't too slippery. After doing a 2.5 hour Zumbathon, my feet definitely hurt, which may be due to the lack of support in these shoes. But for a 1 hour zumba class a few times a week, I'd recommend it. I will say that the shoe ran small. I'm normally a size ten and my toes hit up against the shoe. Next time I'll order a 10.5!

These shoes would be great but they are very wide. I ordered a half size up and the length is good but I had some slip in the heel and the width is way too much for my foot. I normally wear a medium so I would say these are for the wide foot even if you wear a medium with.

Bought these for Zumba in grey/yellow color. Love these shoes! They are great fit and support as I have come to expect from Ryka and these are so light! I use them for Zumba and they are great for spins, turns and jumping. I have officially converted to Ryka.

Loved the colors and the style. Too wide for me so it was difficult when I do Zumba. Length was good as well, but there was a seam or something in the left side of the shoe that rubbed my toes and didn't feel good.

For Jazzercise. Ordered a 10, my normal size, in hopes this would fit, as I usually wear an 11 w/ my orthotics. Even without the orthotics, it was pretty short, could feel my toes easily hit the forward part. Nice wide to box though. returning them for an 11. Just wish Ryka would make 10.5 like they do in their other shoes

Was looking for a shoe to replace the Ryka Transition pair that I wear in a cardio/aerobics class - low profile but supportive. This is as close as I could find. I am a true size 8 1/2to9 and prefer on the shorter side so went with 8 1/2. No problem on length but I feel that the front of my foot slides around a little more than I'd like when exercising...still a great shoe for my purposes! :)

I tried these after trying the Studio D - I am sending these back. My feet ached after Zumba class with these. They are comfortable when you put them on, nice support on the arch and sides. They are a bit higher on the heel...I had a hard time moving around on the floor.

Well, I tried these for Zumba, they are very comfortable with arch and lateral support...but for some reason my feet ached when I was done with Zumba class :( I am sending them back. And ordering the Sudio D in my size instead of a half size bigger, I found those much more comfortable.

Nice minimalist type shoe for the gym. Less cushioning than I am used to, but so far I like them. They do have very good lateral support, which is one of the reasons I purchased these. Overall, very satisfied. Even though I wear a 7 and a half regular shoe, I always need a size 8 in workout shoes. True for these as well; the fit is excellent.

I got this shoe for Zumba classes. It works wonderfully - nice pivot and does not catch on gym floor. The shoes runs a bit large - I could have gotten a 1//2 size smaller. I do put an insert in it and it works great. Good looking too!

These shoes fit pretty well. the are a little narrow across the toes for my feet. The soles are sticking to the floor in my dance studio. I have tried different shoes there and no problem. Very disappointing! I'm in fear of twisting an ankle. I really don't want to resort to putting duct tape on the soles - it will just start peeling off and creating a worse problem.

My previous shoes are split sole Bloch's. I love them but want something more streamlines.

These are quite different from my other Ryka sneakers. They are narrower and shorter than the way my others fit.

I LOVED the wide toes they're perfect for me! However, the heels are slanted up which was a real problem. I walk on my heels due to neurological damage from back surgery. That caused me to lose my balance especially when walking backwards in my aerobics class.

These shoes are really nice looking, but the fit, for me, was awful. There's no way I could teach 1 fitness class never mind 14.

Unfortunately the sneakers did fit me well. The design was a little too tight.

The fit was ok but a little tight in the toe area. Maybe I needed a wide?

I actually sent the first pair back as they were supposedly my size but they were too small. I ordered the next half size up and they are STILL really tight.

They are short in the length and high around the heel and ankle bone. They just don’t fit my foot.

I've been a fan of Ryka for many years, wearing their cross trainers as I like to work out to videos at home. I've always found them to be comfortable, with a perfect fit. However, this last pair I bought seems to have a narrower toe box than others I've had in the past. I will continue to use them hoping they will eventually stretch a bit.
