Rigid, so good for toes developing arthritis, according to foot surgeon. Supportive enough for teachers on their feet all day. Many compliments on my red ones- even a guy teacher wants a pair! And the principal and I can have twin shoes on twin day. I did use a heal insert for the first few times I wore them because I wasn't used to shoes touching close to my ankles. I'd worn Sketchers exclusively for a decade. Podiatrist said if you can fold a shoe in half it's not supportive enough, so all of my sketchers were given away. I do wish shoe descriptions on the site were specific about if shoes will fold in half. I'm hoping the words external shank for mid foot that I see on another style means it's not possible to fold them in half. Memory foam in arch support part that touches socks would be nice in Rykas too.

Best walking shoes. I have dealt with varicose veins and these shoes have ceased the swelling.
This is one of the best fitting sneakers I have found for my 10/10.5 Wide foot in a long time. I put it on and it felt like it was made for my foot. In addition to having good cushioning for walking, it's a super cute retro style. I love the side details and the logo on the back. Feels very sporty spice and like you can wear them with anything, including dresses. 10/10 recommend.
I have two pair of the Pod flow and I love them. My newest, the red is fabulous, nice and bright. They are comfortable, no break in time. They make me smile when I put them on. The size 8w fit me perfectly. The toe box is ample, I can wear them for the day and not get too hot in them. or fatigued from wearing them. I feel very stable in these when walking and light jogging Zena
These shoes look nice. As with all Ryka shoes, the shoelaces are too short!! It's impossible to double-knot the laces. And Ryka needs to add more brightly colored shoes to their collection. There was a note in the shoe box that the color will fade. That was disappointing.
I've worn these about a dozen times and the front of the shoe is coming unglued.
I was very excited to get these shoes after co-worker recommended them but I was very disappointed in them. I could barely make it through a 5 hour work day in them they hurt my feet so bad. Since I can’t return them (because I’ve worn them) I will use them as leisure shoes, but definitely not as work shoes like I had purchased them for.
These shoes are very comfortable with good arch support. I usually wear a size 9 in Ryka but these ran a bit large so I exchanged for an 8.5 and the fit is perfect 😊
They are a tiny bit wide, but the sole and bottom are very comfortable! First time trying this brand, will definitely buy it again!
Love Ryka shoes but disappointed in the pair I got in dec. they are already falling apart. I wear them once a week for work and the tip of the shoe rubber is separating from the shoe.
