Jumpstart Lace Slip-On Sneaker

I ordered these knowing this isn’t the most trendy brand, and I’m glad I did. They are cute, comfy and perfect for walking or for a casual outfit shoe. As a matter of fact, I bought them for my every day dog walking shoe but I like them so much, I may not use for that. I don't want them to get too dirty:) i’m a new Ryka fan.

While on vacation, I washed my white sneakers and ruined them (not sure what was cause). I made a quick trip to Nordstrom Rack and as usual, the shoe department was excellent. I found these sneakers in white and it was a brand I had never tried. They are so comfortable and were perfect for walking distances and looking cute with any casual outfit (dress, pants, skort, leggins).

I have tried different socks and even used one of those Dr. Scholl’s strips and it hurts the back of my right heel. The picture is after half a day of wearing the shoes with the strips for padding today. It’s not practical for me to put on a bandaid on each time I wear these shoes. These repeatedly hurt the back of my right heel and almost a month ago, I could only wear my crocs because I had to heal from the severe skin abrasions that was bleeding! I didn’t take a picture of it back then because I couldn’t stand looking at it since I don’t do well with queasy stuff. I am so confused and disappointed by these pair because the other Ryka I bought previously fit so nicely and are so comfortable. I have worn these 20 times and feel bad about returning them, so still stuck on what to do but wanted to share my experience so that you are aware that one shoe might be defective!

I wear an 8 and I ordered an 8 Medium. They fit perfectly!! I work on my feet for 8-12 hours/day in my embroidery shop and have no back pain and no foot/leg aches and pains while wearing these shoes. My only regret is not trying Ryka sneakers before now. I will be ordering these in more colors!

These are my favorite Ryka’s and I have probably 10 pair and have purchased these in particular three times. I wear them out!. Love that they’re slip on and are so comfy. Please don’t stop this style.

I have a narrow heel that tends to slip out of most shoes, the start of a bunion developing at the front of my feet, and an arch that’s slightly high in the morning but flattens as the day goes on. After gaining 20 pounds, I was wearing through the arch support in my foam sneakers within a few weeks. Step aside, Nike and New Balance—these are my new favorite sneakers. The arch support has a springy, supportive feel, almost like a high-arch trail runner with a metal or hard-plastic core, and the heel cup is the most comfortable I’ve experienced: it hugs my heels in without chafing, and it keeps my foot securely in place instead of sliding around. The elastic across the top felt snug at first but quickly molded into a perfect fit. They’re lightweight, supportive, and keep my arches feeling supported all day. I can wear with athletic wear or business casual shorts. After a month of daily wear, I can even feel a difference in my shins. And they’re step-ins, which I didn’t realize I’d love this much. I’ll definitely be checking out more shoes from Ryka.
