I usually have trouble with finding comfortable shoes that don’t pinch my toes from being too narrow. Although it was listed that 7.5 would fit me well, I ordered 8.5 and it was very well fitting although just a tad loose but comfortable. The outside is soft suede, has sturdy soles and supportive cushion inside. They look very stylish with jeans, slacks or dress. I bought these when they were on ‘Lightning Deals’ and paid a discount price for them. The French Beige color is very fashionable and hot. I highly recommend the seller and product. 👍
The Ryka Women's Anchorage Mid Suede Ankle Shoe/boot is comfortable all the way around. It is lightweight and stylish. It is a very nice shoe for people who have no feet problems. Unfortunately, I have to wear orthotic inserts now. Putting the inserts in made the shoe slip on my heel so, I had to return the shoes. If the shoes had been maybe a half inch deeper my orthotics would have worked. The french beige color is a pretty neutral that will go with most outfits. The treated suede is an added benefit. The sizing is an accurate fit.
These fit well with a medium weight sock. If you wear a very heavy sock I'd go up a half size. Very comfortable, light weight but warm. I haven't worn them in the snow but I hope they are water repellent! Good boot for the price.
Easy to clean, roomy, warm for cold colorado winters. I now only wear these shoes when walking my dog, who is a scent hound, and yanks me instantly to the left or right if he smells an intriguing scent. All of my previous shoes have been permanently contorted and heels have broken off from his personal walking practices. The short of it is, my shoes don't last long. These shoes are sturdy, comfy, still not mis-shapen, I can wear them to work, too which implements a business casual dress code. I take my dog out 2.5 hours everyday as he is a hunting breed who requires vigorous exercise. I live in Denver and I am not able to allow him off leash as he is a "runner." These shoes surprisingly look new still after many months of wearing on a daily basis. Also, if they get dusty while he is walking me, I simply vacuum them with the brush attachment, and they look new again. Super warm on cold nights and sturdy yet flexible.
I LOVE Ryka shoes. Was hoping these would work, but nope. I wear 9W and every pair of Ryka’s I’ve bought have fit and are comfortable. Bought Merrells for years previously. Merrell has changed their quality (not for the better) so I tried Ryka’s last year. And love them.These boots would be awesome except, Ryka pay attention, the footbed fits a 9W, perfectly. 9W wearers, I would think, have thicker ankles. But, Ryka didn’t make the ankle shaft with the zipper wide enough to accommodate wider ankles, which I have. So, suggest don’t spend the money if you have thicker (fat) ankles.
This is a nice shoe. I liked that I could try it before I bought it. Made well,but wish it was a little more comfortable. It is roomy at the toe area, which I need .
Love my water repellent suede ankle boots. They are warm and stylish. They look nice with jeans or a dress slacks. Very comfortable!
Just what I wanted and I have already received compliments on them. They are warm and so cute with jeans!
