Not only were these sneakers about a half-size too small, there was little-to-no side support. Overall, the construction of the shoe felt shoddy.

I love Ryka shoes, but for some reason the Influence fits smaller than the old style I had (Vestige) so have ordered a half size up to give that a try.

I purchased these shoes (Influence2.5) for my kitchen and housekeeping staff. The ladies on staff are on their feet all day long and I was hoping these would be good shoes for them. I previously purchased Devotion XT by Ryka as well and everyone loved them. We had to return these because the tread is horrible. I had two staff members slip and fall. If you look at the bottom of each shoe you will notice the Devotion XT has better tread. These wonderful employees need to have solid footwear and not something that can cause injury. No thanks. I'm going to try to get Devotion XT - the only reason I didn't get it this time around was that they were sold out.

Reviewed at Ryka
Several years ago I bought a pair of Ryka's after reading glowing reviews online. I do a lot of Zumba and needed a pair of shoes that would provide the support needed for this activity. I was very pleased with the shoes and when they wore out, I purchased a replacement. This time, however, the shoes just did not fit right and I had to return them and buy a different brand. I am now needing to repair those shoes and decided to give Ryka another chance. Unfortunately, they just did not fit even though I used the diagram to figure out the size and width I needed. I am very disappointed and will no longer consider Ryka when buying shoes.

I have a pair of Ryka shoes for Jazzercise and Zumba and love them. Have had them 6 yrs and looked for replacements. The style I have is gone, so selected Influence 2.5, as I wanted black and it's hard to find a single color. I ordered size 8 1/2 - same as my current shoes. They were way too short, so sent them back and got a 9. The 9 fit, but after walking around in them in the house, the tongue started to cut into the front of my foot. It's a somewhat stiff plastic, not soft fabric. Sent them back, as I can only imagine how bad they would be after an hour of Zumba.

Could not be more disappointed in Ryka for this shoe. Easily runs one size too small. As an 11-year Ryka customer, this is so sad.

These are not wide. I have rarely found a women's shoes listed as wide that is actually wide.
It also rolls inwards terribly.

I bought these to wear for work where I am on my feet all day. Usually Ryka shoes work out well for me, but I felt this style did not offer enough cushioning on the bottom. My feet were aching after two hours. Had to return.
