Love these! It’s coronavirus season and we’re all stuck at home. My sanity is getting out for walks but my old sneakers were getting really old. Took a chance buying online and am so happy! These are so comfortable right out of the box. Put them on and went for a 3 mile walk and forgot I had them in when I got back home and wore them until bedtime. Highly recommend!

Bought these shoes for walking and going to gym. Love the style. Feet feel supported, well-cushioned. Order 1/2 size up than usual size.

Ryka sneakers run small so I recommend ordering them 1 size larger than normal. Having done that ... the fit was perfect!!

This style of Ryka offers the best arch support!

These Ryka shoes are perfect. Instead of making the footbed wider, Ryka has made the shoes deeper throughout the top of the shoe. This gave me more room for the top of my foot especially when I wear padded socks and I get better support overall. The heel is about the same as the medium width so my heel does not slip when I walk. I had these problem with other wide shoes so I am very happy to find Ryka has built a shoe to fit my foot perfectly.

I ordered this shoe in a women's 11. They look good and feel comfortable and even have the second hole at the top for helping with heel slipping. My only issue is that the feel at least a half size too small - maybe a whole size. My toe is jammed right up to the front. I hold out high hopes for the next size up.

I love these shoes. They are comfortable right out of the box. I usually wear a 10 or 10.5, and these, in a 10.5 are just barely long enough. Even though they're listed as M width and I usually wear a N because of my narrow heels, these fit fine and even a little snug (adjustable with the laces). Highly recommend, and the memory foam soles are great!

These run small need to reorder, going to see if half size up available.

This shoe has a great fit and a great last to it. I've use this shoe primarily for standing and walking about 60 miles a week in all kinds of weather and it's held up well.

I think this shoe is worth reviewing, as it has a couple of points that are not standard fare. I was looking for a walking shoe that might allow me to throw short jogging intervals into my walk. I wanted a rocker type sole to help propel me forward. I have a neutral foot, slight pronation, low arch, currently enduring a plantar fascitis flareup. I'm doing a half marathon in 2 months, having done a few in the past and one whole marathon. I've had or tried thousands of athletic shoes. I wanted to run or run/walk this HM, but am older, slower, stiffer, etc, and the joints aren't liking it. So, I've decided to walk it as fast as I can and perhaps throw in minimal short jogs to help me imagine I'm awesome. Usually, run/walk shoes are in the $150 range. I do like Brooks Ghost 8 a lot.
I tried a pair of Ryka shoes about 25 years ago. Too narrow and stiff, so I never tried them again, until this pair. I usually wear 8M in street shoes, and 9M in athletic shoes. I decided on 8.5W in these; they were the best fit.
I like this shoe because I can really feel the ground beneath my feet. Not in a bad way; they just have a lower, flatter, wider surface and they feel very stable. Not much rocker motion going on, but oh well. I LOVE the memory foam insole! I wish it was thicker, because I won't be able to wear them for as long as the HM. But, for a few miles, very very comfortable. I really thought they'd be junk, for only $65. What a pleasant surprise. Not much arch support, but not so much it's annoying, either.

This is the second pair of Ryka Sky Walk shoes that I have purchased. These shoe actually have a decent arch support. The athletic shoes I have tried on lately seem to have hard, flat insoles. I have ordered a half size up because I feel like they run a little small. I don’t like my toes hitting the end of the shoe when I walk. They are very comfortable.

Flexible yet supportive. My toes have wiggle room but feels a bit short. I could have gone 1/2 size larger. Overall a great shoe.

I'm a newbie to Ryka shoes so I'm testing the water with different styles and these are my 2nd pair. I love the look, who doesn't?! They are super light and very flexible. A little more narrow & shorter than the other pair I have and I wear thick padded socks so a little uncomfortable, but I am still breaking them in! If I order them again I would go up 1/2 a size for sure. Quality shoe regardless of that one complaint (narrowness)!

Although these are new to my feet, they feel very good. I have bunions and need a large toe box. I always order a wide shoe. Sometimes the seams are in certain places that irritate my feet, but these are very comfortable. For the affordable price, I am very pleased.

I had to send the first two pairs back and get a wide shoe, as well as a whole size larger, for use on the elliptical and for walking. I have a very high arch, and I do wish it were a bit higher off the ground, but it's a very comfortable shoe overall.

So comfortable,like walking on marshmallows. Wish they came in many color combinations,when you have foot problems and find a shoe that works, you want more. I wear a 9 and this nine fits perfectly and good arch support.

I am an avid walker. I walk 35-40 miles each week. The shoe I had been wearing was the Ryka Dash. I could not find that same shoe and I loved that shoe. I then tried the Devotion which hurt my feet. No then I tried this. This was comfortable and I walked 5 miles right out of the box. Felt very much the same as my beloved Dash.

This shoe does run small. I had read this in previous reviews, and planned to order a half size up, but that size was not available. I took a chance and ordered my regular size (10, medium) and sure enough, they were too small. Will have to return.

Love these! I also have the Ryka Dash and find these to be a little more substantial, with more cushioning, but they are very light and flexible. I found I need to order a half size up in Rykas; I am a 6 or 6.5 wide or extra wide normally; these in 7 wide were great. I love putting them on. Even though they are mesh covered, I can wear them in the rain without getting soaked. Will definitely buy again.

I have been shopping for a really comfortable shoe for months and these fit the bill! Good ankle support, heavily padded (the tongue is at least a half inch thick), and memory foam interior! Sooo comfy! They do definitely run small so order a full size larger than you normally wear.

I have always liked this brand but the last few pair have been too narrow in the toe. I tried a half size bigger but still the shoe presses on my big toe. As usual, Zappos rocks!
