Abrasion-resistant outsole
The Ryka Dynamic 2.5 employs a high-abrasion Exo-Shell component around the entire length of the sole unit to protect it from wearing off.
The outsole also makes use of a whole range of flex grooves, which are placed across the external section of the platform to promote natural movement.
Enhanced shock-absorption
This Ryka workout shoe features a lightweight, high-rebound N-Gage EVA midsole unit. It has better shock-absorbing properties compared to the standard EVA. This technology was designed to offer a smoother and shock-free ride.
The use of the Antimicrobial Ortholite footbed ensures a long-term cushioning for the trainer. Its open-cell PU foam provides a high level of breathability and moisture management. It is also removable.
Breathable upper
The upper features multiple layers of mesh and synthetic materials. Such construction allows for a supportive and snug fit of the foot. At the same time, it promotes airflow through ventilation pores.
The trainer utilizes a synthetic toe cap and an extra layer of synthetic leather in the rear section to provide enhanced support and durability.
The rounded toe design of the Ryka Dynamic 2.5 offers more space in the toe box section for a natural toe splay during the workout.
Extra comfort
The collar of the shoe is padded for more comfort.
