The whole sizes have too much variance and I can't get a good fit. One is too short and the other slips off my foot. Need half sizes in the training shoes. SO Dissapointed

I love my other two styles of Ryka. I have tried wearing these 3 or 4 times, but they have given me foot pain each time (as in for a day or two afterwards). I am a dance fitness instructor and cannot risk injury, so I believe I cannot wear these anymore. I am very saddened about this.

This is my fourth pair because I love them so much. However, this last pair is different. The fabric has changed, and they don't fit he same. They are much wider. I had to send them back.Very disappointing.

I really didnt like these shoes. I would love to return them, but I threw out the box. I have high arches and I felt like they gave me no support.

Although I have been wearing Rykä shoes for many years, this particular pair of Devotion XT felt a half-size smaller. Additionally, based on the images and pictures, I expected the shoe would have a purple/black sole and blue/green/iridescent design on the upper, but instead it has a black/grey sole and black/grey design on the upper. Although unexpected, the color is not a big deal, but the she feeling a half-size smaller requires a return.

This was my 4th pair of Devotion XTs. I ordered the same 7W that I always get, but it was clear these were NOT wide, based on the fit, even though labeled as Wide. Additionally the color of the shoe was not as gray as the picture appears, but more blue in tone.

I ordered Wide, got medium wide. If it says wide that's what I should have gotten for the money I spent. Not a very sturdy shoe. Disappointed

These shoes are really cute and comfortable but I they fall apart quickly. I use them only inside for working out and both soles have fallen off. I tried gluing them back on but that did not work. I would avoid these unless you are into replacing your gym shoes every few months

I have a pair of the Devotion Plus that I love, however I am was wearing them for Jazzercise and thought a pair of training shoes would be better, I was wrong. The cushion is lacking, they are just stiff. I have upgraded the insoles but when I did that I was unable to achieve the secure feeling of the shoe on my foot. I have also laced them in different patterns to help with the loose heel and ended up irritating the tendon on the top of my foot. I could not return them since they had been worn in the studio, but honestly how does a consumer know if a workout shoe really performs unless they have tried them out. I love my Devotion Plus so I will stick with them for now on.

My past two sneakers were ASICS and I was excited about Ryka. They were not comfortable, too tight, and felt like my heels were coming off. I wonder if I need to try a size bigger. They looked nice.

I've been wearing ONLY Ryka shoes since 1989. As a teacher who has to stand on her feet all day, walking around the room, these shoes wear the best, bar none. However, the last four years or so, I've noticed that the quality is no longer there with this brand. The soles become unglued, I need to buy different sizes (based on the design), and they don't last. Considering the price of the shoes have increased, I expect that the quality would still be there. Disappointed to say the least.

I've been wearing Rykas for a long time, but these pinch the top of my feet every time I been them to step. I couldn't return them since I'd worn them on the road. Certainly not what I was hoping for.

The soles on this shoe are cheap, weak, garbage, etc. My three year old Nikes have better soles than these that were purchased in May and used for approximately 30 hours at Crossfit.

I got the 8.5 med & after one 3 mile walk they looked beat up. From stretching while walking (no coverage support) & the insole was weak & cheap feeling. So disappointing because I've always used Ryk for workouts & casual. What's Happening Ryk?

I just got my order, opened the box, and these are NOT the quality RYKA is known for. I have 5 other pair, these are terrible. the footbed is some new material, that was curled over (at the instep) and hard, so could not be fixed. also if you remove the "ORTHOLITE"inside, , you have nothing under your sole, but the stitched shoe. I am returning these for a refund, and will no longer buy RYKA, sight unseen !! what a terrible come-down for this fabulous company

I'm a fan of Ryka Dash 2 and 3, and wish the grey color (without the hot pink) would be re-issued. Unfortunately Ryka Devotion XT did not feel comfortable at all. Even though I ordered a wide - it felt a bit narrow, and when I walked the sides near my little toes crunched inward. Sorry but have to return.
I'd also recommend:
Ryka Dash 2 and 3; L'Amour Des Pieds, Dansko, Haflinger

RYKA falls apart. These WERE good for aerobics but they got a hole in the heel that went all the way back to the plastic. I contacted Ryka and they literally said "send them back on your dime and after we get them, we'll tell you in 4 weeks if we deem them defective". Zappos took them back, no questions, but I felt awful making Zappos deal with Ryka. Plus, they're super ugly. Don't buy Ryka if you work out more than once a week. They'll fall apart.
I'd also recommend:
Brooks, Nike

I am sad to say these shoes are not up to par. I have been wearing Ryka for about 20 years and always had a wonderful fit and comfort. Recently, all the Ryka shoes I have purchased, from different vendors, have had flaws, such as: Too big, too small, both shoes not matching, comfort just not there, and so forth. These shoes I am sad to say just do not fit right and they are going back. I did purchase a pair a few months ago, tried them on and they were too short, sent them back and got a larger size. I should have tried them on when I received them, but stupidly did not. I purchased 3 more pair, and only two could be shipped because they were out of one color. I tried them on, my original purchase, and they are way too wide and the comfort is NOT there. I used to be able to just but Ryka, size 9 and always was happy. Of the 18 pairs I currently have, I have 9, 9 1/2, 10 in my closet. Just not made the way they used to be made!!! I do not understand why I need 3 different sizes in the same brand shoes.

I wore this style before and loved them. When it came time to replace them, the tread on the new pair wore off within a week of wearing them. I had to buy a replacement pair before they would send me a refund. On the second pair the tread on the bottom started peeling off within a week again. I read other reviews of the tread coming off, but was determined I could get a pair that would last like my original pair. I purchased a new pair again (pair number 3), before I could get a refund on pair 2, and again, the tread wore off. I wore these shoes for dance aerobics and an indoor bootcamp. I am extremely disappointed because I loved my original pair.
