Review on πŸ‘Ÿ RYKA Women's Influence Training Black Athletic Shoes for Women: Remarkable Performance and Style by Antonio Cameron

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great fit, support and performance

These shoes fit me perfectly! I've been doing Zumba for about 15 years, I'm in my golden years and used to wear dance shoes that were worn out so I bought cross shoes which hurt my knees, hips and back. After researching Zumba shoes, I bought the Influence and the first generation Influence 2.5. Although the influences were light and comfortable, they didn't offer much support so I sent them back. Influence 2.5 is just what my feet need as I have a high arch and instep. As stated in the shoe reviews, I bought 1/2 size larger. I love the roomy toe box, perfect heel fit, and overall (visible) support of the shoe. I use Spenco reinforced inserts for extra support. I recently used 2.5s in a Zumba class and the pivot points on the outsole of the shoe make a huge difference. I also decided to try the Zumba Sole Control Bands which gave me more freedom of movement. I am very satisfied with this shoe and so happy that I do not feel any pain.
