I returned to Ryka after nearly 20 decades away (wearing Brooks, Saucony, Adidas).  These are just terrific.  They're a perfect fit being a bit wider across the toe bed and narrower in the heal.  There's lots of cushion and extra bounce in the forefoot, too.  Lots of stability for lateral movements.  They arrived the day before a week-long vacation to NYC and I decided to bring them along.  I wore them everyday clocking in over 20K steps every day.  They were perfect right out of the box - no break-in period, no blisters, no sore feet.  I'm just about to order a second pair to have on hand when these wear out.  Bonus - great coloring!!
