"great, supportive shoe...very light. i normally wear a 7.5 or 8, and ordered an 8. They are maybe a tiny bit too long, but perfectly fine. The point is that lots of times they recommend you buy a half-size bigger, but if I had ordered a half-size bigger, they would be WAY to long. Really liking them for both Jazzercise and Zumba. Lots of compliments on color combo, too!"
Pros: Lightweight, Cushioning, Shock absorbing, Breathable
Yes, I recommend this product.

"I received these shoes this past week, taught one class in them and then wore them all day yesterday for a Zumba Fitness instructors' licensing training. I had no pain, discomfort or blisters, even though I do not wear socks. I like how Ryka shoes fit, as they are designed for a woman's foot. The sole is designed for twisting moves, which occur quite frequently in a Zumba class!"
Pros: Lightweight, Shock absorbing, great for zumba moves.
Yes, I recommend this product.

"The color of the sneakers is true to the picture. I love Ryka sneakers and buy them all the time. These did fit well, however I found them to be loose in the heel. This I've never found in another pair of Ryka's. I'm not able to wear them to work out. I did keep them and wear them for casual occasions."
Pros: Lightweight, Durable, Breathable
Cons: narrow in the heel.
Yes, I recommend this product.

"Shoe is very light-weight and very comfortable. I didn't think I would be crazy about the color combination, but I really like it. The "coral" is more pink than orange. I normally wear a 7 or 7-1/2 - I ordered both and ended up keeping the 7-1/2. My feet are not narrow and these shoes fit nicely. Very happy with these shoes."
Pros: Lightweight, Good traction, Breathable
