Customer Reviews Ryka Influence - deleted

It feels different that moment i tried it on the first time. But i should have ordered 1/2 size smaller but I dont have plan to exchange it because I can wear a cushioned socks and still feels good. This is my 2nd pair of Ryka shoes....I love to dance and m luving Ryka too! :)

I teach zumba classes 2-3 times a week (sometimes more) and zumba on my own almost every day I'm not teaching to do new choreo, practice, or work out. This shoe is PERFECT for zumba. The bottom/sole is great for the twists/turns/pivots done in zumba classes. There is good support for the jumps, etc. The shoe helps with safety on your knees, etc. for zumba classes. I'm hooked on this shoe and now Ryka. =) I couldn't be more pleased. The style and look of the shoe, colors, etc. are great as well! Many of my students wear Ryka and are also very pleased with Ryka.

The sneakers fit well, are lightweight, and the colors are vibrant. Love them!

Love this shoe. Teach high impact aerobics, Jazzercise, and this shoe is very comfortable and gives great support and cushioning, lightweight and breathable.

Loved them! Sell the to my customers all the time!

I have worn several pairs of the Influence style, and I been happy with every one. The tread holds up well for pivot moves, and the soles provide good overall support.

This is my first Ryka purchase, and I'm enormously pleased. I'm on the brink of a wide shoe with pretty high arches, which can sometimes be a hard combination to fit. I'm between an 8 81/2 typically. I purchased an 81/2 just to be on the safe side. They fit my foot perfectly. The toe box is roomy, my arches are properly supported, and my foot doesn't feel as if it's in a vice. I've been using them for the elliptical and kettle bells. They have just the support I need and keep me stable. I'll definitely be repurchasing a pair of these when the time comes!

I have been wearing Ryka shoes for teaching for well over a year now. I needed a new pair and a friend had recommended I go direct to the site, rather than the store as there would be more variety. Very happy that I did!! Service was great, selection was fabulous and the shoes are perfect!! Would highly recommend!!

I have not bought this color yet, but I have had 3 pairs of this same style in 2 different colors. They are perfect for Jazzercise. I am an instructor so I am tough on my shoes! These fit just right. They are not heavy on my feet like some athletic shoes, yet I feel the support. They fit well, not too tight in some places or too loose anywhere. I will continue to buy these every 100 hours or so. Great shoes! Love the new colors! The only con that really does not affect me is that if you have high arches these shoes might not work for you. I don't need the arch support as much.

Teaching Jazzercise 5 times a week or more and I Love this shoe! It is standing up to the test of many classes!

My daughter requested these shoes for Christmas. She goes to Jazzercise 3 times a week. These are her favourite she for comfort and support.

These shoes are perfect for Zumba. They allow you to pivot and spin without putting stress on your knees. The arch support is fantastic as is the ankle support. The sole provides good support for jumping! These fit like a glove.

I started Jazzercise classes about 6 months ago & had terrible knee pain until I switched my shoes to Rykas. I now have three pair & plan on getting more. Have to get all the colors to match my outfits ta know. :)

I have found that the top-of-the-line Rykas offer the best support, whether excuting forward-back or lateral movements. Great support for high impact moves as well!

This is the second pair of this style I've had & I love them for Jazzercise!

This shoe is perfect for me. Aerobically I work out 6 days a week and so far has offered great support. The toe width is great as I insert orthodics and sometimes my little toes are squeezed with other shoes. They are light weight but the structure of the shoe seems ideal.

Great shoes for studio work, my 4th pair! Ryka has the big names beat!

I teach 7 Jazzercise classes a week. Needless to say, I go through my tennis shoes pretty quickly and am pretty hard on them. I have been wearing the dynamics for years, but have been wanting to try the influence for a while just based on it's style. I love the support and function of these shoes. My feet are terrible and need a lot of arch support and cushion and these shoes definitely do that. I will be buying more in the future.

As a PE teacher I like to look nice. Needed a black pair of shoes and like the look of these black/gray Influence. They fit true to size. I also have a pair of Influence with the pink laces.

I have worn Ryka's as a Jazzercise Instructor for years and been very happy with fit, comfort and support.

I have several pairs of Ryka shoes. I use them for zumba workouts and with the pivot spot they are great. This pair is the first I found that had a wide width. I wish this was offered more. I have wide feet and typically need to go up 1/2 a size to accommodate. This pair of shoes is a bit stiffer than my others but after a workout they feel good. I think the stiffer gives a bit more support. Love the shoes. Offer more wide widths with the pivot spots.

I have ordered/worn this shoe for a long time and LOVE it! I particularly like this new color!

Love these shoes! Great support, flexibility and traction. Good looks too!

I love the Influence and recommend them to all of my customers. Great agility in the shoe for dance. Nice pivot action toe bed. Toe Bed is wide enough to spread out your feet for certain moves when we land. Just enough 'tread' so you don't slip and slide but you also don't drag. Very lightweight. Awesome high impact cushion. I'm on my 3rd pair.

Great shoe look forward to purchasing more in the future
