I gave this pair a chance because I still haven’t found anything on your list that can replace my black, super-comfy, dance-perfect, award-winning Devotion XT. The first time I wore these to a dance fitness class, they felt stiff, but I thought they just needed some breaking in. It’s been a month now, and unfortunately, they actually feel worse. The shoe is still very stiff, and the high, rigid heel collar rubs and scratches the back of my feet. I can’t wear no-show socks with them because I need the extra coverage to protect my heels. On the positive side, the shoe is light-weight, toe box is roomy, and the shoes look nice on my feet—but that’s about it. I’ve given up wearing them for dance fitness and now only use them for gym workouts and treadmill running. If you’re looking for shoes specifically for dance fitness classes, I would not recommend these. They just don’t have the comfort and flexibility I need for dancing. Please bring give us a true replacement for the Devotion XT!

Customer reviews
I guess the quality of your sneakers has diminished. the tops of the blue ones The “never quit 2” in Dazzle Blue. the dazzle blue you can see the adhesive on the sides of both shoes. Looks cheaply made and I will be returning them. I'm disappointed in Ryka because you guys “used to have” great quality on all your shoes, what happened ? I’m a Ryka customer for many years. Wondering why ADD IMAGES not allowing me to add photos. It’s highlighted and does go to an option to submit photos.
I did not try these on. When I inspected them there was glue and other imperfections about the shoe that gave the appearance of poor quality. The color and style was nice, but the poor quality kept me from even trying them on.
The walking Ryker has awesome arch support and comfy. The trainer has little arch support both are comfy but both run too wide and I ordered an 8M. My feet are wide and a medium fits like a glove in other shoes but these are like for wide.
Purchased these in black. These run big and I had to size down 1/2 a size. I find the heel is too wide for me but the toe box is fine. I wouldn't purchase this style again.
I have worn Ryka shoes in the past as they are typically geared for a smaller petite foot in size 5.5.These did not disappoint, the fit supports my foot. I prefer a more cushioned shoe, but these are adequate with an added insole.
I'm not loving these shoes! They don't have much cushioning and I don't find them comfortable because of the high sides and back.
I really like white sneakers with the pivot point. Hoping they bring the all white Viv sneakers back
I didn’t even try it on. I’ve worn Reika forever, and I usually like them. Unfortunately, the description said that they were white and black. When I received them they were a disappointing cream colored, which I absolutely did not want. I had been waiting for white. And for this reason I gave that only two stars not because of the performance or the fit, but because I was very disappointed in the color.
The heel drop on this one aggravated my plantar faciitis so I returned and ordered a lower drop pair (Influence). Quality was fine, but they did seem a bit large. Ordered a size down with new purchase.
