Quality and Comfort
Fabulous light weight professional cut and made walking shoe with arch support that makes a difference. You can feel the thought that went into designing these shoes.

I Love How Ryka Shoes Fit
I love Ryka shoes for how they fit — close to my foot without pinching, padded without being clunky, roominess in the toe box without being wide. I normally wear betwee an 8.5 and a 9, and I’ve learned to go with the larger size with this brand. These felt comfortable right out of the box. I wore them all day and forgot that they were new.The treads, while not deep, are good enough to traverse slippery surfaces. I love that the interior arch supports hits my foot exactly where they should. The navy/pink has enough blue in them to keep down the flashiness. Although these aren’t super-high-end and rugged sneakers like some brands, I expect them to last under normal use conditions, just as the other sneakers of this brand have.– Debbie Lee Wesselmann

Great shoes, just not for me!
Great shoes, just not for me! These shoes seem to be of really good quality. I ordered the navy/pink colors — very cute! I ordered an 11W to account for a severe bunion on my left foot. The wide toe box is great and very comfortable. Unfortunately, because it is a Wide, the heel is too loose. My foot rides up out of the back of the shoe when I walk. I’m so disappointed, but I’ll have to return these. The search goes on…

Maybe size up 1/2 size but great support!
I ordered these as I was looking for a good support sneaker with a good arch and not memory foam. Recovering from surgery and walking is importance in my recovery. They seem light enough and are comfortable. I ordered my usual size 8 but the arch was hitting too soon so I ordered a half size up and they are perfect! Like the color! Excuse my side tie as I am still in the no BLT phase of recovery 😉

Good comfort up front, but wore out too fast
Good comfort initially, but durability issuesI’ve been wearing the Ryka Dash 3 Walking Shoe for a few months—here’s my experience.👍 What I likedThey’re really comfortable at first, with a great fit, decent support, and a nice feel for walking.The design is light, breathable, and versatile, with good tread for casual walks or errands.👎 What disappointed meThe insoles wore out too quickly, losing cushioning and support after a short time, especially on longer walks.The materials didn’t hold up as expected, with stitching fraying and seams loosening around the toe and sides.They don’t seem ideal for heavy or frequent use, as they showed wear quickly with daily or extended use.

The shoe looks exactly as it does in the image. Choose your size carefully. Though this isn’t my usual US/UK size (US6/UK4), the size chart given is absolutely correct, so I followed it and got my exact size – 7, M, US. Don’t look for beauty in this shoe – this will not make your foot look noticeably cute or dainty (not that it’s a bad-looking shoe – it has great finish, quality and detail, but it’s slightly bulkier than my normal sports shoe and the design isn’t to my usual spartan taste). But for ergonomic styling, comfort and balance, I’d say these are excellent. I have small feet, a high arch, pronounced pronation and plantar fasciitis, so comfort matters a great deal. Features like the narrow cupping heel, padded interior, arch support and volume at the inner foot make all the difference when walking. This brand designs shoes specifically for women, and I’d definitely recommend this pair to anyone looking for a great walking shoe. How long it lasts remains to be seen, so I’ll probably update this review sometime in the future.

Normally take a size 9 and this is what I ordered. I also measured my foot and compared to the size chart. Very comfortable shoe. My feet were getting sore after working 5 hours standing and walking around – with my old shoes. With these shoes, my feet do not get sore. I recommend these shoes and will buy again, once these wear out.
