RykaWomen's, Influence Training Shoe

These fit my feet perfectly, are super comfortable, and are great for Zumba class. They're supportive and provide stability for side to side movements, all while being very lightweight. I'm normally a Nike gal but decided to take a chance...happy I did. Definitely recommend!

These shows have great court tread. They feel nice and sturdy on your feet. Supportive to movement. And they’re white. So they are cute and match everything.

This is my first pair of Rykas. Normally I wear ASICS, but I needed training shoes for weight lifting and body sculpt classes, so I bought these after reading the reviews. Please note these are training shoes- not running shoes, so while they are comfortable, stabilizing and super supportive, they’re not super cushy like a typical running shoe. These sneakers have great arch and heel support, plenty of room in the toe box and are true to size. Great for lateral movements and quick pivots (and also for exercises on a Bosu. Great value for the price.

I love these shoes. They’re pretty and very comfortable.

I purchased these shoes after my Zumba instructor suggested I get shoes specifically for Zumba. Get the right shoe for the right activity, she said. I had told her how my knees had been hurting and that is why I didn't do some of the higher impact moves, and she said the right shoes should help. I was a bit skeptical, and almost didn't get these shoes especially because of the price point, but I am so glad I did. I wear 6 1/2 or 7, and have a fairly wide foot in the toe box area, but not so much in my heel, which ironically is how these shoes are designed, for a women's foot, Made "For Women, By Women", and the size 7 fit me perfectly. First thing I noticed is how lightweight, yet at the same time still very supportive, and surprisingly stable feeling they were. The real test was at my next Zumba class, and they passed with flying colors!!!! My skepticism quickly disappeared when I was doing the high impact moves that I wouldn't even attempt before because of knee pain. I did a whole one hour class with no knee pain at all and worked out much harder than ever before since I was pain free. The lightweightedness of the shoe helped make kicks, and jumps much easier. And the spin spot on the bottom of the shoe made turns much smoother as well. As a result I am getting a much more intense workout, and becoming better at: "Zumba-ing"! I would also like to mention Amazon delivered before the projected delivery date, which was an awesome surprise to receive them so quick. Kudos to Ryka for making such a great shoe! This was my first experience with Ryka shoes and I will try some of their other shoes as well in the future.

I will admit to being a total fitness novice - due to a back injury, I've been very sedentary for almost 20 years. I decided I've got to start doing something, so I've started walking and exercising to some videos (PiYo and zumba). After a lot of searching, these are the shoes I chose.I'm impressed with how comfortable they are - I really like them. That said, they run short. I am pretty consistent size-wise, even across different brands. The toe box in these is short and uncomfortable. I had originally gotten them just to work out in the house, but when I needed shoes to go for a walk, I grabbed these. MISTAKE! After only a few yards I figured out that these were short. They feel great everywhere else, but when shoes are pinching your toes, little else matters. I should mention I struggle with ingrown toe nails on both big toes - getting pedicures and making sure there is plenty of room in the toe area of my shoes has kept those painful ingrown nails at bay. I also battle neuropathy - which is not aggravated by these shoes (except that toe area). Now the ingrown nails are back, loudly professing their presence. I can't wear any of my shoes without pushing on those obnoxious ingrown areas, so I just dread wearing all shoes right now.Bottom Line: I like the shoes. I like the style and the colors. I appreciate how they feel nice and cool, like your feet are getting good ventilation. I also like that the weave is tight enough to keep my feet pretty dry when I (unexpectedly) walk through snow piles. Decent arch support. The only problem I have with these shoes is that they are short. Which is a big problem. I purchased size 11 and they fit more like a 10. I wish I would have gotten a 12, I feel the extra size would have been just enough to vastly improve the comfort level. Their comfort is about a 9/10, but that short length brings my rating to a 4/10. Ordering a size up will most likely result in purchasing one of the most comfortable pair of workout shoes you've gotten in a long time. Make the mistake of ordering your usual size and you'll undoubtedly have issues with length - especially if that's an issue you struggle with already. These are so nice looking and comfortable in the rest of the shoe that I'm bummed I can't wear them. Plenty of wiggle room width-wise in the toes...just way too short.

Taking country line dance class & needed a light comfortable shoe while learning the steps. Added a stick on mole skin to ball of foot. Great fit. Comfortable & light. Love this shoe.

I really like the shades of blue on runners. Nice Cross Trainers. They are wide and light weight. Good for Low impact classes or Dance fitness. Arch support is good. You can pivot easily.I usually only buy Nike runners. Ryka runners are similar. Definitely would buy Ryka runners again.

I hadn’t worn this brand of shoes in years - used to do arobics , with a lot of jumping and they were terrific.A woman next to me had a pair on & I asked her about them. It was low profile ( not a lot of cushioning) and had a pivot spot under the big toe , perfect for Zumba moves.Very comfortable and look terrific!

Pidan su talla habitual. Tengo el pie ancho y me quedaron muy bien.Mi nueva marca favorita

If you're worried about getting a shoe that's to narrow buy a wide width. This shoe's regular fit is rather narrow.The shoe is not that flexible which is good to stabilize a foot that hurts easily. I changed the inner soles for cushy ones for my sensitive feet and therefore love the shoe's sturdiness even more.

The media could not be loaded. Los compré para zumba porq leí los comentarios. Resultó verdad! Son maravillosos! He comprado diferentes marcas y definitivamente estos son los mejores con mis pies y rodillas. Permiten por el tipo de suela, los giros y torsiones de rodilla sin lesiones ni dolor! Y además, algo tiene la plantilla, que sin notarse suavidad exagerada, mantiene el arco del pie muy cómodo y sin dolor. Los amé!!!Si bailas y siempre te duelen los pies, ya sea durante el ejercicio o después, por la noche y al siguiente día, estos son los sneakers que andabas buscando!
