Ryka Devotion XT Training Shoe - Women's

They work well with my flat and wide forefoot,narrower heel for low impact aerobics with step bench intervals and weight work out. Feel supported and cushioned in forefoot and lateral movement.

Fit is exactly as expected. Supportive during Jazzercise class. This particular shoe is one of my favorites for aerobics.

After years of trying various fitness training shoes, I finally found a brand and model that fit my foot and my feet....devotion xt mid. It was such a relief, because stores don't stock training shoes like they do running shoes. It is not easy to try on shoes to see what works, and ordering online is tiresome unless you know a brand works. Well, my perfect shoe does not seem to be available anymore, so I thought "how different could this new version be?" Well, different enough that it does not work for me. I have a narrow foot, and the toe box width is significantly wider than the previous version. Also it is not offered in mid top which I prefer for added stability. Looks like I a back to the drawing board for fitness shoes! BTW I am a fitness instructor and many students look to me for recommendations. It's sad that I can't recommend a single shoe after 40 years in the industry!

I've worn Ryka's for over 20 years as dance aerobic shoes working out in Jazzercize. I only wish Ryka would give more color options in the Devotion XT. top notch for comfort and stability and endurance.

I bought these shoes in the size I normally wear from Ryka, and they are a little too big. The cushioning is great, but I feel the shoe fold into the top of my foot in certain steps because they are a bit long. I wish I'd ordered a smaller size

I’ve tried other expensive, name brand shoes but Ryka Devotion are the shoes that fit best, provide stability, comfort, & are priced right. I am a devoted Jazzercise student & my feet & knees need good support. I can recommend Ruka.

It is so disappointing that this brand is no longer reliable. For 30 years I have ordered Ryka’s and they have been a great fit at a size 7. Now suddenly the toes are narrow and pinching. I have to give up this brand and don’t know what my options are, but it will not be Ryka any longer. So sad.

I’m thinking maybe people are using this shoe outdoors, which it was not designed for. That’s maybe why they’re not holding up, I’ve had mine for a long time, but I never wear them outside like I would with my walking or running shoes. I use them inside for aerobic dance classes or lifting weights indoors. Has loads of cushion in forefoot & heel for comfort. I’ve sworn by these shoes for yrs. I was an instructor for 20 plus yrs and this shoe works great as long as you use it for what intended for. Thank you Ryka!!
