SInce Keen and ASICS have changed their last, I have been searching for shoes with a wide toe box and narrow heel. These are it! Very comfortable. Will be buying this brand in the future. Unless they also start making shoes whose fit resembles the box!

This is my second pair and I love how these support my problematic feet. I need a wide toe box but have narrow ankles and need arch and heel support, and these check all the boxes and are the most comfortable walking/running shoes I've worn. My one complaint is the styling - I would love to see some design updates to make them more on trend and even some street-style versions for wearing more seamlessly with jeans/casual clothing.

I wanted to love these but I could feel the indents of the bubbles on the soles. They were pressing into my foot in weird places. Did not feel as comfy or supportive as I had hoped.

Most comfortable shoes ever. I am a nurse and my feet hurt all the time--especially my heels. The padding is great in the heels. :D

I got them about a year ago maybe? They were super comfortable and still are if I didn't mind the smell. After 2-3 months, they began to smell like cat pee. They had gotten wet walking outside in the rain and after that, they smelled terrible. Washed them several times thinking it would help. At first, I thought it did as it only seemed to smell when the shoes were wet. Now, it is constant. I've also tried odor absorbers, setting in the sun/freezer etc - looked online and found it is a problem with the polyurethane in the sole releasing the smell. The fabric upper now smells great but you turn the shoe over and it is the sole that has that terrible ammonia smell. Very sad because my shoes still look and feel great because they were not worn long before I gave up trying to get the cat pee smell to go away. Nobody wants to smell like that. And now, I do not trust that other Ryka shoes will not have the same issue.

These shoes have plenty of room. They also have a nice cushion and strong support. These are my second pair and I was happy to buy a second pair.

This is my second pair--I wore the first ones out, and bought this shinier version because that's what these times require!

Good arch support and lightweight tops. The brand advertises narrow heels. My heels are quite narrow and I felt they were about average for a woman’s shoe. Not very helpful for my under-pronation but I’ll keep them.

So many compliments on the navy/teal combo! The shoes are very lightweight with a breathable upper and a sturdy, cushioned bottom. I highly recommend this shoe and will be a return customer!

Shoe created a blister from the bottom joint of my left big toe to the tip of my left big toe! Unable to wear these shoes even with insets from the Chiropractor, same thing happened! Total waste of money!

Beautiful, comfortable shoes that don't scrunch my toes-finally! My husband and I walk several times a day and these were comfortable for that from the get-go. Very happy with them!

I wanted these to work, I love the colors. I ordered my usual size 7 Wide but the shoes were tight around the big toe on both feet. This was my first pair of Ryka shoes so I can't compare the fit to other styles. Unfortunately they just didn't work for me.

Very disappointed...the shoe is very comfortable but the vinyl/plastic overlay started separating from the shoe almost right away.

First pair of these I purchased via Zappos were awesome and so comfortable from the get go. Good arch support. Wore them through 1000 miles of walking. Ordered 2nd pair. Same style, same size. They must have been made with different laste or different manufacturer because both my big toes have blisters. And I have narrow feet and am very careful to lace appropriate snugness. Don't know what happened. Returning.

I can always depend on Ryka for comfortable shoes that I can wear right out of the box! The 9W is the right length, and the width is for the truly wide foot. I have bunions on each foot as a result of heredity and cramming my D width feet into B width shoes for decades when I was young and vain; they are serious enough that I will need surgery in the next year or two. Meanwhile, Ryka's woman-based designs allow me to walk my dogs and live comfortably. My only complaint is that the black/berry combo is NOT as pictured. The photo shows a blue shoe with lighter blue trim; the actual shoe is BLACK with pink trim. That's OK, I usually order black, but was expecting a different color based on the picture.

I have owned a few pairs of this shoe in the past and have loved them but I think the shoe has undergone changes. I'm very disappointed in this pair. I may be returning it.

I've suffered with foot pain due to bunions and have searched for shoes everywhere. I've spent hundreds on shoes. While at my local shoe store as I was about to walk out, I decided to try the Devotion 2. I could not believe the absolute comfort. It's been 2 weeks and I'm still amazed. Not all Rykas work for me but I just ordered another pair! Please never get rid of this style!

I've always bought Ryka shoes in the past and loved them. Just received these shoes yesterday and they have such a bad chemical smell to them. Never had that with their shoes in the past. It's horrible and very strong. I can smell it wearing them.

the fit was so so, the shoe tongue is very odd, not enough there and it leaves a gap between the shoe and the laces. The main issue is this shoe literally stinks, has a very odd odor. I had them in my spare bedroom with the box lid open and after a few days there was this very odd smell, took me a few minutes to identify the source... It was the shoes.

The insole is the only arch support or padding in this shoe. Cute on but too short.

One shoe was fine. The other was too wide in the heel so I tightened the laces so it wouldn’t slip. The next day that foot killed me all day! Returned the shoes of course.

These are GREAT shoes!! Having knee and hip pain...these shoes work fantastic for me. My job requires a lot of walking. No knee or hip pain while wearing them. And, since they are so comfortable, and create a pain free lifestyle, I ordered a 2nd pair. Very pleased ?!!!!

I've worn Rykas off and on for several years, and in general they fit fine. Unfortunately, with this particular pair, the left shoe fit perfectly. The right one, however, had a hard line or bump running right across the shoe in the insole. It was uncomfortable and really strange. I think maybe the right hand shoe got put together wrong at the factory. In any case, I had to return them.
