I have been wearing the Ryka Transition for 4 years now in Zumba class. Love that shoe and the sole so I tried the new Exertion shoe from Ryka. Didn't seem as stable and sturdy as the Transition. The tongue of the shoe is not sewn in very well and after wearing them three times the left tongue came completely detached. The stitching had completely come undone. Going to try them again but I think the newer Transition might have to be the alternative if the Exertion falls apart again.

Really wanted to love this shoe and have been a Ryka fan in the past, but disappointed. Colors are cute and the shoe is soft and lightweight. The sole is the same as the Transition with the pivot point. I like the way the lateral support is directly held by the laces. However, the inside of the shoe is poorly finished. The base of the tongue is sewn but not trimmed well and I could majorly feel it. I tried thick shoes and thin socks and neither gave any relief from the pressure of that. Add to it that some of the pieces inside actually felt sticky to the touch. Lightweight is great, but cheaply finishing a shoe just doesn't work. I had to take them off before I even went out the door to class. I changed into my Ecco Biom Trainers which are not perfect for dance class but give some stability in a lightweight, nicely finished shoe that's built to last (bought those on sale of course!). I hope Ryka returns to the quality and workmanship I loved before! Expected more for the price.

I wear my shoes to do the firm fanny lifter workout and I feel they are lightweight and also I love the design.

I am a wide width and most Zumba shoes are too narrow for me. These may be marked "medium" but they fit like a wide. I'm thrilled to say that they fit me perfectly right out of the box. Please note, tho, that the insole is not very supportive. I took it out and replaced it with a more supportive insole.

Fits great so far. I have a wider foot and this shoe is pretty comfortable for not being a wide width. I use this shoe for my weight training days at the gym.
