I have been a fan of brand for years and always purchased them for work use and casual wear. I spent all day on my feet because I work in a pharmacy. They were so comfortable and extremely supportive. I was pretty disappointed with these , the quality isn't even close to what they used to be. I only wore them for about 4 months and they are looking pretty shabby and they aren't as comfortable or supportive as they used to be. I wore them for casually and am now retired., I am pretty disappointed.

Really unhappy with how low the back is. Makes the shoe fit very oddly. I'll be returning soon.

Please go back to the original design of the shoe.
The newer version doesn't give enough ankle support.

Within one week of wear the grey strip around the toes has worn down, making the shoes appear very worn.

I bought these 5 ago and have worn them a handful of times for Zumba class and these sneakers have not held up. For the price I paid for this sneaker I am disappointed at the quality. I purchased Tenacity over 3 years ago and ordered devotion because Tenacity was no longer an option. Tenacity was a better quality and I used them for years!

There is no ankle support so it is a design feature only!
It seems too wide for my feet and I have normal feet!
I teach 14 classes a week and I use it for some. The soul has started peeling of!
Maybe I just got a lemon.
I like Ryk but the quality has declined:(

Super cute sneakers. They were wide and I didn't get wide. I've only been wearing them for about 2 weeks and they already look like this(sad face)

The mesh at the front of the toe box is so soft that because of the way I walk, I've actually worn small holes where the extra fabric is. Very comfortable but for the price, I would have expected that these shoes would have lasted longer.

OH my. They shoes could’ve worked. Looking for a shoe to handle the bounces & laterals for fitness dance class. Run a full size short. Lightweight & decent support. Width on. But the smell! Like chemical plastic smell. Unbearable. I’m sure it’s a factor of the cheap materials. Don’t look particularly durable

I received these on Saturday 1/9 I wore them to teach my Monday morning Jazzercise class and 2 of the diamonds on the bottom of one shoe were already coming off. The shoe is comfortable abd has great cushion and spring for Jazzercise but the quality is awful. I have been wearing Ryka shoes since Jazzercise became a sponsor and are extremely disappointed in the quality of these. Why do you continue to make this bottom when you know those diamonds always come off?

Purchased this shoe in 8.5 Wide, my usual size. Sizing felt true. Liked the ankle support feature, however the shoe felt so "mushy" in the sole, arch and body, that it negated any support from the ankle support feature. Requested return authorization.

Too clunky, and can’t be adjusted for narrow small ankles. Had to go back.

Shoe is beautiful but not a fan of the velcro strap. The shoe always feels too loose and there is no way to tighten it at the ankle. The laces only come up to just below the ankle and while you can tighten those the shoe still feels odd with the tthe strap. I prefer the older model without the strap where the laces come all the way up.

I was hoping these would be good for zumba but my big toe was pressed up against the shoe and the heel was too negative for me.

I was disappointed in these because the insole was much harder than what I was anticipating, and the insoles are rounded so that they are higher on the outside of the foot, causing pressure under the outstep area which changed to pain in both heels, feet and ankles within about 3 minutes of treadmill walking.

Like someone else stated, the rubber triangles that hold the shoelaces broke within a week. I really wanted to purchase these in a different color, but I'm not paying that much just for parts of the shoe to break. Now the material that says "Ryka" flaps to the side and looks unattractive. I followed the advice a review gave to go half a size up, but I don't think I needed it. It felt true to size. Felt pretty comfy too, but when the rubber snapped on the shoe, it loosened the fit. Will not purchase again, which is unfortunate because it's a great looking shoe.

Bought in Jan 2014. They were fine for minimal use indoors but last month I started using them to walk outdoors, on the street twice a day, 15 minutes at a time. I noticed today that the sole is beginning to shred. They are not going to hold up much longer. I'm disappointed in the quality of this shoe. Ryka has always been my go-to shoe, but not anymore. It is, however, a cute shoe.

I loved these shoes...until they fell apart! One part of the sole separated from the rest - the soles have multiple colors, and one color part came loose from the rest of the shoe, and now I have to throw them away. They were barely worn, as I had bought them to replace my first pair in this style, and kept them in their box in my closet until the first pair started to get old. I am so disappointed! I have been wearing Ryka almost exclusively for a year or two, but after this experience, I'm switching to Brooks.

They don't keep your feet straight. You wobble in them. They are comfortable. But will not use them for training. I almost hurt my ankle because they don't keep your foot straight.

I have purchased quite a few pairs of Ryka sneakers for teaching my Zumba classes. They are comfortable but almost every pair has ripped out on the sides. These were my latest purchase and they ripped after only wearing them a few times. It is too late for me to return them now.

Unfortunately these were ridiculously wide width, very sloppy. The laces do not go all the way to the top so the only support is the velco strap across the top and no matter how hard you pull its still loose, no support at all. The point of high top in my opinion is support not looks.

I wanted to love these but I have a lot of foot pain when I wear these. I thought with them being a high top I would have more support but you don't. The laces end at the top of your foot, so you aren't able to make it more snug. And the flap in the back, you have to hold onto it to put your foot in or else it folds inside.
They also rub the top of my toes when I walk.

High top hurt ankle, when exercising, and Ryka would not take shoes back as I wore them twice and then found out they hurt when I exercised. Their policy is, they cannot accept return shoes, however, you don't know that they don't work until you used them!!

I got these originally last year thought they would help my ankles. My right ankle is weak so the extra support was nice within 3 months the top fabric started tearing. Got another pair the exact same and within 2 months the same thing is happening!! These do not hold up at all!!! Don't buy until you want to replace every two to three months!
