I absolutely loved everything about this shoe except it wasn't wide enough. I have a wide foot and it was putting pressure on my big toe and hurting. I am so bummed because I love these shoes but I can't damage my foot. I reluctantly returned them. I really hope they will consider making their wide shoes wider in the future or making a double wide to accommodate those that have wider feet. I usually wear Asics because they are the only brand I have found that is wide enough for a truly wide foot. My 13 year-old has just as wide of a foot too. Hoping they do make a wider shoe because I would definitely buy it!

Received these last week. In exchange for my review I get to keep these. I am a preschool teacher and am on my feet all day! I am constantly running after little ones and my feet are always tired an swollen at the end of the day. I figured these woukd be perfect for me to try while at work. I used them a whole work and they really took a beating! I was surprised right away how light they are. They look like a chunky heavy shoe but they are so light and really comfortable. With all the walking, running and standing I do I needed something light and comfortable. These really helped and my feet weren't swollen at the end of the day.

These shoes are comfortable. I am a true size 8 and these are about a 1/2 inch too big. But really nice for walking. No blisters after wearing for about 10 hours. Cute also

The size and width were fine, and I like the look. But I am returning these shoes because they felt weird on the outside of the midsole, causing me to pronate. I have owned several pairs of Rykas without having this issue..

Everything about this shoe is wonderful except it presses against my Achilles' tendon. The back of the shoe very high. I'm short and the distance between my heel and my tendon is short as well. These are the first pair of Ryka that I haven't been able to wear. I've worn them exclusively for at least 30 years and wish the back was lower.

Very cute shoe - thought I had found my new walking shoe. Two months in and there is already a hole in the inside heel. Have to return the extras I bought.

I ordered these sneakers after reading reviews. I have wide feet and need arch support, so its a struggle to find the right shoe. Unfortunately, these were not wide enough and were pinching my toes. It's a shame because this color is super cute. So I had to return

Fits nicely - really loud squeak when walking - very annoying.
I'd also recommend:
Keeping the Nike Air Zoom Pegasus - more comfortable and no squeaks!

The shoe overall was OK at first but when I walked the heel kept slipping out as if it didn't come up high enough!

I have another pair of this style in a different color and they fit well. My heel keeps slipping up and down when walking in this pair.

Purchased in November and the heel fabric quickly tore, making the shoes uncomfortable. I have worn Rykas for years and typically purchase 3-4 pairs a year. I was so disappointed by the quality of this shoe, I replaced them about a month ago with a different brand altogether and will make me think twice about future Ryka purchases

The fit was just fine. But on my left foot it felt as though the shoe was pushing in on my foot, like it wanted to force me to pronate.

I bought these shoes 2 months ago for a trip to Europe. Investors been delighted with them, walking many miles every day for three weeks. These shoes have really been great for walking on cobbles with a bad back. Today something was flopping on my foot, thought I'd stepped in gum. To my horror, one of the shoes I have been loving lost its sole. Just peeled right off! After only wearing them three weeks! And they weren't cheap! So yesterday 5 star shoes, couldn't be better. Today 1 star.

Lining in the heel cup wore through very quickly, allowing hard heel cup to rub and cause blisters.

I was so disappointed in these shoes. I bought the mid blue in my regular size 10 M. They fit great and looked great, but the right shoe was defective, tilting towards the inside so I returned them and bought the same shoe again thinking it was just a defective pair, but the second pair had the same problem. Then I started pouring through reviews on various sites and came across too many that said the shoes started falling apart within weeks of purchasing them. Come on, Ryka. Seriously? I'd rather pay more for a good pair of well-fitting shoes that last, than buy cheaper shoes that fall apart quickly. Won't be buying Ryka again, and that's too bad since they really do make a well-fitting shoe for women's feet.

I need a good pair of walking shoes with arch support and bought the Devotion X in Mid Blue. They fit really well and have good arch support, which I need, but the right shoe was crooked and listed towards the inside. The left shoe was fine. I returned them and ordered another pair in the same color thinking it was just a defective pair, but the second pair had the same problem. This is so disappointing as this company has such a great premise of designing shoes around women's feet, and the shoe really did fit well and was very comfortable. There was no slipping in the heel, plenty of room in the toe box with great arch support and cushioning. Unfortunately, they seem to be making cheap shoes. I was going to try a different style, but there were so many reviews saying that the shoes fall apart quickly that I decided against it. I would gladly pay more for a well-built shoe that fits well and is durable. It's too bad that Ryka decided to go the cheap route instead of making quality shoes that last.

I wanted to love these shoes but after wearing them for a short time I noticed the right shoe was causing my ankle to roll inward which in turn caused horrible knee pain. To me it seemed like a flaw in how the shoe was put together. The left shoe was fine. I returned them.

Will never buy another Ryka sneaker - quality control and general quality of my last pair was horrible. When I received the shoes, there were different size shoelaces on each shoe, and one was so short it barley tied. Each shoe felt different and a couple/few months into wearing them (light use around the house, don't go out much at all), the right shoe completely came apart. The upper separated from the bottom of the shoe. Left shoe is completely ok, I've never had this happen before with any shoes. Now I need to find a different brand. :-(

This is a beautiful shoe and very comfortable. However!! The problem is the mesh and I wish I had pictures. I am returning the third pair of this shoe. The problem with the first two pairs was the mesh stretching out over the sole. The third pair there is a buckle in the mesh of one shoe. I still love Ryka but will not purchase another pair that features mesh _:(
