I was really disappointed in these shoes. I have been running 3-5 days a week for about a month in Ryka's I bought three years ago. I had not run in them previously but they had covered a lot of miles walking. I really wanted to replace them with something newer, but being an impoverished student and running shoes being so expensive I didn't have a lot of options. I was really happy with the old Ryka's, so I thought I would try some of the new ones. (I'm not sure what model my old ones are. They are too worn to tell.) The MoaMoa was billed by Ryka as a cushion shoe, so I thought it would be a good choice.

The first time I ran in them the balls of my feet were sore. That's never happened to me with a running shoe before. The forefront of the shoe really seems lacking in cushioning. I also noticed that the heel slipped slightly on one foot. My old Ryka's never did that. After a couple runs I started to have pain in one ankle. A couple days later my ankles and feet swelled up, which has never happened to me before. Ever. I also started to experience some knee pain and now find my knees hurt too much to run. (I'm 31 and have never had any major injuries.)

Needless to say I am very unhappy with these shoes.

On the plus sid they are light weight and nice-looking. (I got the white, silver, and teal colored ones.) I did not find that they ran small the way many people say Ryka's do and was able to wear my usual 8.5. I have somewhat narrow feet and I did feel these shoes were a bit too wide for me.

These shoes might be fine for someone who is not prone to problems with their knees or ankles. I think as I am getting back into running after being away from it for a long time I need a shoe that is going to take better care of me. These were not it.
