Customer Reviews Ryka Dash 3

I have been buying Ryka shoes for several years and typically love the fit and comfort. Always have been a size 8. Unfortunately, this pair of size 8 was so short my toe felt like it was going to pop out of the front. Had to check to make sure they were size 8. Going back.

I want this shoe to have more support, especially at the heel. It is soft, but it also doesn’t have any arch support either.

Unfortunately, the way these shoes are made, the front (on either side of the tongue) comes up higher than my previous pair of Ryka's and when walking, they rubbed a blister on the front of my ankle. This of course made it uncomfortable to walk. I walk my dogs 2 miles daily but I'm not going to be able to wear these. They insole is also not as cushioned as my previous pair. The heal seems to have some cushion but not the foot bed. I would not recommend buying these and b/c I've worn them outside, I'm not able to return them.

Did not fit.

The Dash 3 is a good looking sneaker , but the fit doesn't work for me. I ordered my usual size, and the sneaker felt tight all over. I would have tried the next size but ended up buying the Devotion 3, which I ordered at the same time. So if you are getting the Dash, you definitely need to order up. I tried ot avoid checking the Dash comfort and over all because I didn't really give the proper size a chance. But Zappos requires the star rating. So I put average,

They are a bit heavy

I bought these because you can take out the insole and put your own orthotics in them. They are cute shoes. But, they smell so much like skunk that I first let them air out of the box for a day, then air outside for several hours. That did not help at all. Now I have sprayed them with Febreeze and we will see if that helps. They were making my whole closet stink. Why do they smell so bad????

I wanted to like these. They fit well and looked nice. But the sole of the shoe was rounded on the bottom rather than flat. This caused my right foot to slightly roll when I walked. So I had to return them. I also felt they didn’t have as much padding in the dole as some other shoes.

This pains me to say how I feel about these shoes. Let me start by saying many years ago a bought a pair of Ryka shoes that were sooo ugly BUT comfortable. Through the years it has been an extreme chore to buy shoes for my problem feet. I had surgery 6 months ago and still have pain if it a tie box that is even slightly narrow which is why I ordered wide . ( I do not by anybody’s measuring have a wide foot, but as we all know running shoe companies keep going narrower. Even within same brand I trouble with do I need 9 1/2 or 10. Even same shoe different color is different ( surely I’m not the only one). That being said I ordered both sizes in wide. 9 1/2 was a little long good width not as wide as other brands when ordering wide so it was good. No pressure on surgery foot so off walking I went omg the non surgery foot was killing me!! The arch in wrong spot. Tried to deal with it cuz right food felt great even though I felt like they were forcing me to pronate. They felt a little wobbly but not to bad. Zappos did not have the blue color I wanted so I ordered somewhere else in 9 wide and 9 1/2 wide just to see if I really needed the 9 and that was why my non surgery foot was hurting soo bad. Geez got the 9 1/2 today and the shoe was so tight on my surgery foot and put pressure on ball of foot and the other felt like finally the arch I’m correct place. BIG PROBLEM IN THE QUALITY CONTROL DEPT. These are all going back except unfortunately for the pair I wore to walk ss they are not running shoes I don’t get the 30 day test trial, and will not ever buy this brand again until the quality is as it was many years ago. I would even pay more as they really are for a women’s foot. This is in MO way a reflection on Zappos they are great I get all my shoes from them. My frustration is with companies not having quality control it isn’t just Ryka

It was time to get new Jazzercise sneakers and I really wanted to like these because of the colors and style, but while they were okay, when wearing a Dash 3 on one foot and a Devotion original (which I also ordered) on the other foot, it was clear that the Dash 3's cushioning just doesn't compare to the Devotion original. I have found the same over the years with other Devotion "upgrades" and always end up with another pair of Devotion originals. Since Ryka hasn't brought out any new colors for the original Devotion in quite some time, my only choice now is to get colors I already have. :-( Ryka, please don't phase out original Devotions! New colors, please!!!

Must return these. They feel like they make my feet overpronate. Not comfortable for this reason. I could also feel my toes touching the tops despite ordering my usual size.

The shoes fit. I have arthritis and was wishing there was more cushioning. I had to put a different insole in them.
