Ryka Viv Next Sneaker

These are so cute and comfortable. They have great arch support, the toe box is wide enough for my aging feet but the heel still fits well, and they are well made. Lightweight and pretty too…

I have had a lot of success with Ryka shoes through the years. My feet are narrow at the ankles and wide at the toes, with a high arch. After having my daughter 3 years ago, my toe box seemed to get even wider but not wide enough to always need "wide" shoes. I had the original Viv sneakers a few years ago and loved; I walked all over England in them for two weeks but, sadly, a dog peed on them and I couldn't get the smell out. I've been wearing a big brand's white sneakers for the last two years and they were cute, but exacerbated my metatarsalgia. I run after a three-year-old most days and spend lots of time in parks, but still want to look cute. So I ordered the Viv Next in both regular and wide widths to try them. They are super cute white sneakers and I love the black and brown details. I like to wear white sneakers with dresses and jeans. I ended up keeping the wide as the regular was just slightly narrow in the toe box; it's the shape of so many of these fashion sneakers; they cut in too narrow on the outer toes even on these Ryka ones. Thankfully, the wide worked and didn't look too wide and wasn't too wide at the heel, which is a problem wide shoes can have.

These shoes are very comfortable and with my arch protectors, I find my back does not hurt after a trip to the grocery store. This is my second pair and I do like the support they provide,

Looks great with jeans. Not for court sports-no grip. Love all my Rykas and I have a few :)

Purchased 2 pair, run 1/2 size big. Then, as soon as I unpackaged them I realized they are SCENTED like Downy SO strongly, I’m severely allergic, also would never want to smell like that in public. Are they for people with foot odor problems? So disappointed 😢. They were comfortable and offered good support when I tried them on

The Viv Next Lace Up Sneaker is so comfortable! The wide fits very well. I have problem feet and they have good support.

I ordered my true size, but I wasn’t able to stop the heel from slipping. I tried inserts and wearing heavy socks, but both heels still slipped. I had to return them.

I followed the sizing guide and wish I'd just gone with my regular size- these are a bit big. The style is very structured and a bit stiff, so that takes getting used to. That said, the instep and wider toe box are just what I needed! And they are very cute.
