Ryka Effortless Women's Fashion Sneakers Chicory Brown Size 8 W

I really like these shoes, they have just the right arch support and very stylish. Be warned that they do run big, they are about a half size bigger than whatever your usual size is. I always get 6.5W in Ryka shoes but had to exchange for a 6W (which was a perfect fit). They feel durable with a nice sturdy sole though the tongue feels a little stiff where the cut-out detail is and I am concerned about it if it'll cause irritation with a lot of walking around. Would love them in more colors

I have worn Ryka almost exclusively since 1998 because I love the fit and style. This sneaker gave me mixed results. The color Iceberg Green presents as decidedly gray/green on my computer, but in full sun is Mint Green. We all know lighting changes the appearance of color, but even when it shows darker, it's not gray/green. My ankles were resting hard on the edges of the shoes so I cut another pair of insoles to fit in the shoe just past the arch support. There is still a comfortable fit for my toes, and my ankles aren't rubbing on the shoe. I was surprised by the color and the adjustments that needed to be made but otherwise the shoe is now comfortable and I look forward to wearing them more.
