ProsLightweight, Good traction, Cushioning, Shock absorbing, Durable, Breathable
I am a fitness instructor that teaches multiple formats. These shoes are light yet provide great support. They are great for weight bearing or plyometrics, even running! Order a backup pair because you will want these the next time you're ready to but new shoes!

ProsLightweight, Breathable
ConsNo Arch Support
I had never bought Ryka's before. They are very light and yet provide the support I need for my Jazzercise workout. I am disappointed that the decorative thin strips near my toes split apart on one shoe, and it seems strips were not even glued on other shoe. A design flaw that needs to be improved as I noticed same flaw (broken strip) on girl standing next to me in exercise class and she said it happened within a few days.

Super cute but lacking support

ProsBreathable
ConsNot Supportive Enough, no lateral support, not a high impact shoe
I thought these shoes would be good for freestyle step aerobics, but there's insufficient lateral support and instep cushioning to accomodate this type of workout. Look for a different shoe if you're planning on high impact workouts. Also,the lack of lateral support makes balancing difficult (which can be good) if you're looking for a shoe to wear for functional Bosu Ball training. Having said all that...the shoe is great for simple workouts like walking, a barbell class, or using the machines at the gym. And, like the headline says, they are very stylish.
