These are very lightweight and comfortable. They are not quite as supportive as my older pair, but are wide enough to add a more supportive insert.

Shoe is very comfortable, however it is quite wide. I decided to keep them anyway as I can put my orthodics in them and then they fit better.

The shoes are very comfortable, are true to size. But, they are not good for exercising in and are loud when walking. When I was in my zumba class, the shoes kept sticking to the floor. They may be good for hiking or something like that.

Comfortable right out of the box. Heel seems a little wide. There is some type of material on top of the mesh body of the shoe that is lifting up/separating from the mesh after just a few wears. This is disappointing. It's happening right where the crease would be if you were to stand on your toes on the medial side of the shoe.

I have been wearing these sneakers for several years and right out of the box they feel great: snug, good support, cozy lining. As others have mentioned, they tend to wear out sooner than I'd like. My foot winds up sliding around somewhat after several months; and then it's time for another pair, which is kind of OK since they are inexpensive. But I keep buying them!

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.

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.

Excellent material. If yr looking for lightweight sneakers with decent support this should be fine. I've tried several shoes in past few years due to ortho issues & so far this is the best one. It's true to size. Roomy toe area decent arch support (tho I use orthotics)- I tried with & without my own inserts, it still is better than most. B/c I read reviews about poor shoelaces I chg mine after I found that the bad tried were justified. They were thin & when I tied them the first time I thought they were going to break them. I changed them immediately but think explanation is due of this is continuing problem. Unless there made of some miracle material of which I'm unaware the shoelaces are poorly made & should be replaced.
Otherwise transaction was smooth delivery timely & pkg above average.

They fit well, even a little wide but for my wide feet, they’re fine. I am a little disappointed that the plastic on the side of 1 shoe is coming off after 2 days, but I glued it down. I will not order them again, prefer more support.

I like the look and feel of these shoes. It was suggested I buy a half size up, but my true size would have been better. These seemed wider than usual at the instep/toe area (and I usually need a little extra room here).

Great for a large foot! I tried and returned about eight different sneakers before keeping these. I got the 12 M and it is a tiny bit too roomy, but I think an insole will take care of that. I don't really like the look of most sneakers, but these are sleek and not too splashy. Relieved to have found them.

I love Ryka shoes. However, this shoe did not work the best for me. I originally bought a size 9 (normal size), then sized up to a 9.5 because the outsides of my last 3 toes on each foot were rubbing, thus the 1 star comfort rating. However, my toes rubbed on the larger size as well. So, I had to send the shoes back (which I am sad because I loved the color). I purchased some Ryka Devotion Plus 3 that are suited much better for me. In looking at the pictures, it seems that the soles of the Devotion Plus 2 has more of a "rocker" shape as the Devotion Plus 3 has more of a flatter shape.

The shoes fit strangely--the arch support hit the ball of my foot.

I have bought these shoes consistently over the past 5/6 years and have tried other Devotion versions out discovering they aren't as comfortable (as many other reviewers have mentioned as well). So the design works, the support in the shoe works, don't change those! However, the color choices are alway either geriatric or clownish. With arthritis issues since my 30s, and I'm now easy 40s, I have to go with what's comfortable, but I want to look good too. Please RYKA, get some plain, neutral colors that younger wearers can be proud to wear, and you'll have a winning combination!

Disappointed with the Dominion, so went back to these. They feel less cushioned than older pairs. Rykas are not what they used to be

I normally wear a 7.5 but my toes were at the end, so I ordered an 8 in another style. They’re a nice looking shoe, however.

Overall, I'm pleased with this shoe and the only negative for me is that I have a narrow foot and have to wear extra thick socks with this shoe, perhaps it's the brand. This is the first time I've purchased this brand and have not had this issue with other sneakers.

Very comfortable right out of the box! However, I'm not sure about the durability for a walking shoe. They appear to be designed more for appearance than use. I guess that I will find out over time. Also, I'm not a big fan of the lacing system. They are hard to lace up. Once you get them how you like them, I can see where this system would not slip. Still, I would prefer eyelets.

Run a little large. I would order 1/2 size down from usual size. I would advise these shoes for women whose feet turn slightly inward.

At first they didn't seem to fit as well as my last Ryka's, but after a couple of wearings they molded to my feet. I wear them around the house on tile floors and they provide good support for the price.
