Ryka Women's Devotion XT 2 Training Shoe

I found these after trying multiple different sneaker-type shoes for wearing to Zumba class. Earlier reviews sounded like this would be a good possibility. It turned out to be a perfect choice!!! Light weight, durable, attractive and easy to pivot on. I bought them in the gray shade, which goes well with many colors and makes my leg look more graceful and elongated compared to the black shade. Glad to say that they fit my wide foot nicely and are very comfortable. Very pleased!!!

I own the Ryka Influence trainer and really love it for walking, light cross training, cardio. However, I needed a trainer with more cushion and support for standing strength training. This Devotion XT 2 works really well for that, plus it is a bit lighter-weight for a trainer which I prefer, although not quite as light as the Influence. The XT 2 also breathes well at the top, so my feet don't feel so hot. I still prefer the Influence for cardio/dance training because it allows me to pivot much better on a hard floor. I did try the original Devotion XT as well, but it is a bit too heavy on my feet and does not breathe. For sizing, I typically wear 10 wide in shoes, and 10.5 wide in the Ryka trainers fits well.

The product seemed to have some defects, like the logo on the left shoe (a plastic stamp on) seemed more worn then on the right shoe. The base seemed to have a small gap on the right shoe, nothing major. Worth the money for the price. Great walking shoe thus far.

Very lightweight & comfortable from the very first wearing. Two things to keep in mind... the upper part is primarily mesh so your sock color may show through & these run larger than my other Rykas (I may try a half size smaller next time). Plenty of room for orthotics. Great shoes.

These are cute shoes and pretty comfortable BUT, they barely lasted a year before then both ended up with holes in the toes. Now at a year and a half, they are falling apart. I wear them to walk and not even that often as I wear flipflops through most of the summer and boots in the winter. Considering the price, I'd expect the quality to be a lot better. The support isnt great either. They are fine for walking but if you want to work out in them, you won't find them very supportive.

I have a tough time finding fitness shoes. I have bunyons, need arch support and need cushioning. I chose these after seeing a review on Runners World of the top training shoes. I am not disappointed at all! I got a size 9W, so the wider toe box is really comfortable and the shoes are well cushioned and very light. Great price, too! If they hold up to abuse, I will definitely stick with this shoe for awhile.

I usually buy high end supportive sneakers that cost a lot of money. I have lots of issues with my feet and I like to walk and workout. I bought these to do hiit workouts in my basement. I wanted a cushioned sneaker that wouldn't bother my plantar fasciitis. These snakes have worked great. I've had no issues jumping and doing workouts in them. The cushoning is great and offers support.

I always wear Ryka. The fit is perfect on my, enabling me to order them online without trying on. I get new ones to wear for my cardio workouts and then retire the older pair into my "every day" pair, and donate the older ones. This pair fits perfectly, has great arch support, and the black with subtle grey will make it very wearable when it eventually becomes my everyday shoe.
