Nice wide sneaker
I'm really glad these fit well. My feet have gotten wider so I need to search more for sneakers that fit. These give me better room in the toe area, and there's no squeezing at all. The tongue is padded so that's softer. And the heel has a lot of cushioning for walking.

Not Comfortable
The material was quite thin, and size was small for my normal size. I returned it.

Best Walking Shoe
I wore these shoes at Disney World and they did not disappoint! My feet did not hurt the whole time we were there! I highly recommend them.

Good support
This is my second time buying these. I tend to walk on the outsides of my feet because I have high arches, which actually caused me to injure my foot. These are a good combination of arch support and support on the part of the sole where the outside of my foot is, so it doesn’t allow the foot to roll outwards. I normally wear a 7/7.5, and 7.5 fit me perfectly in these.

Like walking on clouds
Wear these while I’m walking on my lunch break and sometimes I don’t want to take them off afterwards because my feet feel like I’ve been walking on clouds

These shoes are already showing a considerable amount of use after wearing them occasionally ( 5x mo) for about a year.
I would choose another brand if you plan to wear these often.

Awesome shoe
A brand that always gets it right has done it again! Right out of the box, these shoes are soooo comfortable! Arch support is great, heel cup is perfect and plenty of room up front.

Just what I need
I saw these in the store and immediately thought how I needed these. The black accent against the iridescent ivory was perfect. I have been wearing these all spring for my casual days. Great support and visually pleasing.

Great fit and great style!
I now own two colors of this shoe. The fit is wonderfully comfortable and these are my go-to athletic shoes for walking. The mediums run a little on the narrow side, which is just right for me.

Super Shock Absorption
I've worn Ryka for many years, and I'm very happy with these because they have great shock absorption which I need for back issues. Very comfortable and stylish, too. Will definitely purchase again.

GREAT Ryka walking shoes!
I love these shoes! Comfortable, flexible, light-weight and supportive. Many tennis shoes hurt my feet. These are great! I will buy this brand again!

Not the Ryka for me
Sole seemed sloped to the front and right shoe looked pronated. The upper is very light and does not offer any support. I wear Ryka exclusively, but this is not the style for me.

Love it!
Stylish, comfy, cute and matches with everything. Love the pop of yellow and that it has a flexible toe box area; makes it more comfortable. Not sure how long they’ll last since I’m hard on sneaks but they look well made
