Comfortable & supportive but lightweight. Pivots smoothly without catching on floor. Good arch support.

I am glad you carry 10.5 shoes. I just wish they were narrow. I love the color and support. They slide great on the floor in Zumba. How difficult do you think it might be to make narrow shoes? I know a lot of women with narrow feet and having a great workout shoe that is narrow would be awesome! These are a little wide for me, but they are the length.

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.

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.

I ordered a 9.5 wide and the toe box was still too narrow. That is my usual size. In addition the pivot point on the sole did not allow me to make smooth turns or spins on the gym floor. That is the reason I purchased these sneaks. Somewhat sticky on all types of floors.

I was really looking forward to these shoes. I love the silver color for the warm months and the dance friendly circle under the ball of the foot. I wear DayDreams so I thought they would fit me but the toe box is shorter and they are not comfortable

It's a good sneaker but my question is, why do you not place more padding in the front part of the sneaker? This is a cross trainer. There is a lot of jumping on the front part of your footnot just the back. I honestly don't get how you don't understand that. This is not a running shoe!!!!

I purchased 3 before trying on the shoe as it was a online purchase. The shoe fits fine except at the mouth of the shoe it's too wide, bulges out...needs eyelets to make for a snugger fit, otherwise I like color and performance of the shoe in the gym

I really wanted to like these shoes. The colors were cute, and I love the idea of a shoe made just for women. However..I wear an 11 in street shoes and usually buy an 11.5 in gym/workout shoes. No 11.5 was available in this mode, nor was a 12 offered. I bought the 11, and sure enough, they are a bit short. My toes rub against the front. Not bad..but still. I was going to return them, but decided to keep them and see if they'd be better once I broke them in. Nope. Still not really comfortable. I wear them for casual wear ( my volunteer work at a food bank) and to my yoga class. I won't wear them for hard workouts or treadmill. They just don't have the support I need, which I have in my Brooks. Alsothe laces are a bit skimpy. Too badwish they had worked out better for me and my foot.

I like my Influence shoe better than my Mizuno for my Zumba and RIPPED classes. My foot feels cushioned and supported. Almost as good as my previous multicolored Tenacity high tops which wore out from overuse and lasted longer than my current Influence. I'm actually buying more Influence trainers for teaching my classes. Ryka if you're listening, go back to the durability and colors without weird netting that you had years ago! I'd love to find another multicolored Tenacity with the cushioning and support of my Influence trainers.

A nice shoe, but it does feel as substantial as the Tenacity I typically buy

Toes are too snug; made my feet hurt by the end of the day. They also seemed a little small.

It's been awhile since I work a pair of Ryka shoes. This shoe just wasn't the right fit for me. The arch support was to high and I felt like I was rolling in on my right foot. I haven't had that happen in a shoe before. I wasn't the right fit forme.

They fit well, and worked for my Chisel class. A bit more cushion that my previous Nike. That's a good thing because I am not longer purchasing anything from the Nike brand.
I'd also recommend:
Brooks, Puma, and Asics

Really wanted to love these. They look great, love the colors. They fit my feel well and they're lightweight. When I wore them around the house all day, the back of the shoes rubbed the back of my heel too badly. Back they go and back to the drawing board.

Initially the shoes are great. Felt great with my heel spur. However after 4.5 months of wearing 4-5 days a week the toes seams are breaking...I had the same problem with the other ryka I had but they were so comfortable I thought I'd give it another chance..

I really wanted to love these because the design is awesome. You don’t usually find cool designs for wide sneakers. But, spend the extra $40 and get yourself some Brooks. The support is really uneven. They make me feel like I’m walking on the insides of my feet. There’s also very little arch support. The width is perfect, but they’re just not as comfortable as my Brooks. I kept them for “indoor” sneakers, but I wouldn’t wear these for any kind of exercise.

Even a 5.5 (half size smaller than I usually get in sneakers), felt big to me and the support felt like it was pushing on all the wrong places on my foot. They look really sleek but felt terrible on.

My feet do not like this fit. There is a ridge inside the shoe on the outer aspect that makes it uncomfortable for me. I do like the style and that they are very lightweight.

They rubbed one of my feet in a weird spot and were a little hard, not enough cushion. I ended up loving Dedication.
