I have to say I was very skeptical of trying these shoes, but I am finding them to be very good shoes. I walk 5 1/2 miles daily, and what a good way to test them. My feet didn't even hurt. I am glad I made this choice and investment. If you are walking or running, please make the investment into your feet.

Very comfy and supportive. I have foot issues (had a few fractures and surgeries, bones removed) and these feel like I'm getting the support that I need. My orthotics fit and feel well in them. Since I have my orthotics in, I can't really attest to the arch support in the actual shoe insert.

I love Ryka shoes! I have a high arch/instep and a wide foot. I have Plantar Fasciitis and Achilles tendonitis. I need a shoe that provides arch support, lots of cushioning and stability along with a wide toe box. I normally only buy Ryka's that have the stability shank, so I was a bit concerned when I first ordered these that they may not provide the stability I was used to with other Ryka styles. These fit the bill perfectly! Love the cushioning on these! They are like walking on pillows! So comfortable! The only slight issue with these shoes is the patent overlays on the upper are very stiff at first. Not a deal breaker though. I would recommend these if you are looking for a comfortable walking shoe. Finding wide width in Ryka shoes that provide lots of cushioning and stability is not easy. Some of the lower profile styles of Ryka's do not have enough cushioning or stability for my needs. I came back and ordered backups of this one to put away for later use. I am glad that Zappos carries the wide widths in the Ryka brand. Not all retailers do. Ryka's run short so go up at least half a size.

I put these on and took a step and the cushioning was amazing. I needed a good walking show and this is it. I am so looking forward to getting my morning walks in now.

This is my first pair of Rykas. I've been looking for a walking shoe with strong support since I average about 5 miles per day. These shoes were so comfortable straight out of the box, no breaking in needed. I'm really impressed with the amount of arch support, and the footbed has the right amount of padding, too. My daily walk felt like it was on a cloud today, no tired or hurting feet at the end, I'm so amazed! I hope they hold up for a long time, I love them.

I had to buy a new pair of walking shoes because my new puppy decided my old Ryka's needed some new holes. All I can say is Wow. These are super comfortable with just enough cushion...I can walk in these all day. Nice job Ryka!

These are absolutely the most incredible shoes that I have ever purchased! The cushioning is so far superior to all other athletic shoes that I have tried. I immediately bought two more pairs! Now that is, shoe love!

Love the berry/pink/purple color! Really cute and extremely comfortable shoe. However, order 1/2 size up! I usually take size 7 and had to return the shoe for size 7.5. The shoe is cushy which will be great for my treadmill workouts at the gym.

Nice shoe for price. Maybe not the most stylish, but very comfortable. Getting over a flare up of plantar fasciitis and this shoe provides good support in a comfortable way. I love Ryka shoes - even though the heels usually run a little wide, I can lace it high and it solves the problem.

Not as comfortable as the Ryka dash 2. They are lightweight, but feel stiffer and less durable. The wide width is adequate for my wide feet.

I liked these enough to buy a second pair! They have great support and cushioning. My main issue with them is that if you are an avid walker (I walk 2-3 miles per day), they will not last very long. They bottoms and heels were worn out for me in about 6 months. I purchased another pair of walking shoes after my last pair and ended up coming back to the Ryka Devotion Plus when those wore out.

Love the Rykas, for my wide forefoot and narrow heel. Why is it so many shoe companies seem to assume the heel is the same width as the forefoot? The Sauconys are all built like rowboats. The Rykas fit. That said, the Devotion Plus fit smaller and narrower than the Devotion, and the sole was a bit firmer. I kept the Devotion, and returned the Devotion Plus, although I may order it in a larger size because of the leather trim.

These shoes have fantastic cushioning & I really wanted them to work for Jazzercise! They would be excellent walking shoes, but unfortunately all that cush makes them feel a little bulky and unstable for Jazzercise. I'm not crazy about the shiny black bits but would have overlooked that if they had worked. I'm returning them, but if you're a walker these are your shoes!

These shoes provide comfort and support for walking and step aerobics. The tongue does not stay straight, unlike the regular Devotion style, probably a minor design over site. These are my third Ryka gym shoes and I am very satisfied despite the tongue issue.

These sneakers are incredibly cushioning...like walking on sponges. My only complaint is that they are too short. I ordered a size 8 which I have always been and they are too short. I didn't realize it until I wore them and broke them in. My toes touch the end which makes them hard to wear for long periods. I am considering ordering them again in a half size bigger because they are so cushiony to walk on.

These shoes have wonderful cushioning on the insole, but are very narrow. Even the extra wide width was narrow.

These are pretty comfortable shoes. The arch support is moderate; I would've liked a little more. I also would've liked a little more room in the toe box, but this shoe has more than others I've tried. The heel cushion is very comfy.

The insole is very soft and cushy, and the arch support is good. The width is good. I wear a 9.5 and while these fit, my toes do come right to the end of the footbed. I wish they had another quarter inch of length. I think the 10 would be too big, but I may get another pair and try the 10. Euro sizing says 41, but they are definitely not a 41, if you compare them to say a Birkenstock 41. More like a short 40.

I bought these and the Ryka Devotion. I did not like these as much as the Devotion. These shoes hurt my pinkie toes. I even ordered the wide to give my feet the room they need.

It feels very comfy and has great cushioning, but I think it's better for someone who has a more neutral foot. My foot felt like it was rolling inwards. Not the shoe for overpronators.

I found the heel to be too flexible to pull on. I wanted a little more structure to this shoe. I have always loved the Ryka brand and will choose a different style.

The footbed of this shoe is very comfortable and supportive but the tongue is not padded and the laces dug into the top part of my foot (at the ankle) when they were tied snugly. I don't know why Ryka would cheap out on this feature when they make less expensive shoes that have more padding on the tongue.

Got these because they were the only cute looking white walking shoes. After wearing them though I found that the sole of the shoe doesn't give enough support, felt wobbly. Other than that they were made well very cute.

The sneaker toe top was mis-shapen. Not sure if it was a defect, or because there was so much paper stuffed in it until it was bulging. I let them sit for a few days, but it didn't help. Also, for some reason they weren't as comfortable as my previous Ryka sneakers.

These shoes were much wider than I expected. The size seemed smaller than I expected. I'm normally a size 6.5 with a narrow foot. I tried a size 7 which seemed short to me. The padding and air cushion feel amazing, but had to return due to the width across the toe. (Ordered M width and still to wide!)
