Detailed Review
The Ryka Women's Momentum 2.0 Walking Shoe distinguishes itself in the performance walking segment by delivering outstanding support and comfort. With full-length RE-ZORB® cushioning, each step feels cushioned, minimizing the impact on your joints—ideal for long walks or brisk strolls. The shoe's lightweight EVA midsole complements this feature, offering a soft yet responsive feel underfoot.
Moreover, Ryka has tailored the fit specifically for women, ensuring that the shoe accommodates a narrower heel while providing ample space for the toes. This thoughtful design helps reduce potential blisters and discomfort during extended wear.
The aesthetic appeal of the shoe cannot be overlooked either; its premium soft stretch knit upper not only provides breathability but also sports an attractive artistic brush stroke texture. The laced closure ensures a snug fit, secured by padded cushioning at the heel for added comfort.
While the Momentum 2.0 excels in many areas, it's worth noting that some users reported slight discrepancies in sizing. It's advisable to try them on or carefully consult sizing guides before purchasing. Additionally, the color options are somewhat limited, which may not appeal to everyone.
In summary, the Ryka Women's Momentum 2.0 Walking Shoe is an excellent investment for dedicated walkers seeking a blend of performance, comfort, and style.

User Reviews
This shoe is $ but so worth every penny! I have trouble finding shoes that are comfortable for walking and the whole day. I need wide width and Ryka did not disappoint. I would buy these again and again. Thank you Ryka for having a shoe that I can wear to work and still be comfortable!
I was really excited to try this brand of shoes but they were so uncomfortable the first week I wore them I was taking them off every other hour to give my feet a break. I figured I’d try to break them in. I wore them daily for two weeks. My feet are still so painful. They do fit true to size though and are super cute
These are lightweight and easy to walk in. They absorb any kind of shock and my knees always thankful. I love them. They are a bit snug though so if you have wide feet, meaning If you normally buy wide shoes these might be too snug. There is arch support and a roomy toe box. Overall very satisfied. I already have these in another color. I just wanted the black ones and I have no regrets lol
The heel on these shoes is not padded like other Ryka sneakers. Very poor design. Did not fit properly.
I actually like this shoes. Lightweight and comfy
I’ve used them 2 times but those 2 times were great comfort to my feet and legs. Plus, my lower back didn’t hurt quite as much as usual. I’ve used them for walking the community path, concrete, and for a short hike. I really like them so far.
Had not worn these much until I started wearing them for pickleball this summer. They are lightweight and easy to slip on and off. Great foot stability and realized how spongy and shock absorbent the insole is. Have become my favorite sport shoe for court and dog walking. Might look for these in another color.
The shoes hurt my feet just not a good fit for me.Im unable to wear them.I got wide but they are very tight.
