Ryka Skip Low Leather Casual Sneakers (For Women)

Love these shoes - immediately comfortable, look great and are very versatile. I plan to use a waterproof spray for lether/suede on them.

I've worn them only a few times so far, but am still getting blisters on my heels. Plus, they can be quite tight to get on, so I have to use a shoe-horn. Nicely aerated though and comfortable soles for working in.

Been searching for classic sneakers that look AND feel great. These are the shoes. They've molded to my feet and fit like gloves. Fabric brushes scuffs off well, but then again I don't wear them in athletic pursuits.

The leather and weight of these is lovely, soft and pliable, but these sneakers have a major design flaw: the plastic toe-guard on the front of the shoe is stiff (and feels like poor quality, very plasticky compared to the nice soft leather uppers and other detailing) and digs into my toes, a lot--even with socks on. Since it's plastic, it's not going to mold to my foot, and basically it's way too big and badly shaped (for my foot at least) and looks, as well as feels, ugly. sadly, these are going back.

I have orthodics and with that support inserted these sneakers/shoes work great. I wore them all day the first day I got them and it was fine. Without an extra something of support, they felt like slippers. I bought 1/2 size bigger than usual and with the laces they fit very comfortably.
