    These sandals are SO comfortable and well made. I have very wide feet (wear 4E shoes when I can find them) and these sandals are wide enough for even me! Also the straps are long enough and I love the suede footbed so my feet don't feel sticky. The price is high, but I'm hoping these will wear well.

    Just purchased these sandals and I took them on a cruise. Worried because I always have walking problems, burning under my foot. These shoes were amazing, they feel like a pillow, I wore them all day everyday, no break in period. Expensive yes, but well worth the money for the comfort with no pain. I just bought a 2nd pair in black, not as cute but very versatile. I bought an 8 my normal size but returned them for a 7; seem to run a little large. Thank you again Zappos!

    I've been looking for quite a while for a well-fitting sandal. I have wide feet and a high arch: a difficult combination. This sandal cost a little more than I wanted to pay, but it is fabulous. It fits well, and my daughter thinks it’s cute. It goes with dresses, capris, and jeans. It is well made and will last a long time, so I don't mind spending more.

    Very comfortable, attractive casual sandal. Great arch support. The arch support is much more than I\'m used to, so give yourself a bit of time to get used to these before you wear them all day. The heel is adjustable so the fit is very good, but I think they\'d be more attractive if the heel tapered in a bit more. Most people with wide feet don\'t have very wide heels, but this is designed as if they do.

    Add This Brand to My Favorites
    We know what you go through, dealing with foot pain. You've tried lower heels. Rounder toes. Thick soles. Footbeds and orthotics. You've got your 8-hour shoes and your 2-hour shoes (and the infamous 35-minute shoes). But most of the shoes you count on to be comfortable are collecting dust in the back of your closet, a monument to shoe designers who just don't get it. Well, all that's changed. Now there's Aravon® footwear-in sandals, everyday and office collections-that you can wear all day, every day. In other words, shoes that will hardly ever see your closet.

    One of the secrets behind Aravon's comfort is actually one you can throw away. Contoured, cushioned, and supportive, the Aravon footbed is completely removable. Why? So that you can use a pair of your own custom orthotics. Nonetheless, the Velocor® footbed remains an exquisite piece of engineering, tailored to each Aravon style. Full-length in some, three-quarter length in heels, the removable Velocor® footbed in every Aravon shoe is built to enhance comfort on many levels.

    As part of the New Balance® family of brands, Aravon is all about fit. Every style is made on a naturally contoured last and comes in multiple widths and extensive sizes. We are a few seasoned shoe developers who believe that footwear should support a woman's sense of well-being as well as her sense of style. That's why we designed Aravon-casual footwear with remarkable fit, comfort, performance, and style. Ladies, it's time to vote with your feet.

    I am here to tell you that these sandals are amazing! I am 6'1 in and weigh 250 pounds and suffer from sore feet all the time. I purchased these in a size 12WW and when I put these on I almost cried. They felt so wonderful. They're incredibly soft and such a welcome change from every other sandal I've tried. My size and weight tends to crush woman's shoes instead of support me. Not these! I attribute that to the superb rubber soles and arch support. Yes they are expensive, but worth every penny. I highly recommend them.

    I am constantly searching for very comfortable walking sandals and these are amazing! They really have the feel of more structured shoes. I am impressed. I do wish they were in half sizes because they seem al bit big and I am concerned that a size smaller will be too small.

    Love these sandals. I'm still learning to embrace the fact that I must wear wide shoes, and hate it, so I was hesitant due to frumpiness. I purchased them to walk around Disney World for 4 days. They rocked! They were perfect. I do not, however, recommend wearing them anywhere near the rain.

    The moment I put my feet in these shoes my feet were happy and my feet are not easy to please. This are great and very comfortable shoes, I highly recommend. However the same insole in a little more stylish shoe would be great. The look is okay though.

    I LOVE these shoes! The most comfortable sandal I've ever worn. I have very sensitive feet that hurt with almost any shoe, but these feel as good as a shoe can feel. The selling point for me in choosing them was that they are made by New Balance. I wear NB walking shoes every day. I have fibromyalgia and also neuropathy in my feet so finding a sandal I can wear is a challenge. These shoes are nicely padded on the bottom and soft to walk on. I would prefer they not have the design sewn into the bottom; a smooth bottom would be even more comfy. I need lots of arch support and I have that in this shoe. These are the ugliest shoes I've ever worn, but I don't care. I am 65, and I don't know or care anything about style, I buy totally for comfort. I would have preferred black, but there is only brown. These are at least a 1/2 size too large, but they only come in whole sizes, so I don't want to try a whole size smaller. With all my "complaints" I'm still wearing them. How much more can anyone say?? With Zappos you can try them and see if you like them with no shipping charges, so there's nothing to lose. You might even like the style. :)

    I just love Zappos! Best online shopping ever!\r\nHaving foot surgery a year ago, I need good supportive shoes. This sandal fits the bill. It is well made, has very attractive stitching, and totally adjustable. I trouble with sandals because of my narrow feet and these were no problem!

    For most people this would be a very comfortable, plush shoe, even the straps are padded. Unfortunately, I have swelling right behind my toes and the tilt of this shoe caused me to put too much weight right on that spot, so I am returning the shoe. If you have other problems, this shoe is probably a good fit because of the plushness of the padding.

    This is the most comfortable sandal I\'ve ever owned. I can wear them all day and walk for miles in them on concrete and my feet still feel great. The arch support is perfect. I tried 4 pair of sandals before these: Chaco, Teva, Rockport, Birkenstock. Each of them had problems like not being comfortable, or chafing after long wear. Aravon sandals are expensive, but they\'re worth it. And the bonus - they look great and are even good for dressy occasions.

    I wear 12AA, so my choice of footwear is pretty limited. I also need good arch support, so that's what led me to Aravon. Although I'd come back to purchase Aravon products again, I have to say I'm not thrilled with these. They are too wide, and the leather is very shiny -- it's more of a patent leather look, and I think it looks kind of cheap. Also, the arch support is not very good. And, the edges of the upper strap wore the skin off of one of my feet. Other than that, they were fine. I guess it's a mark of my desperation with my foot size that I kept these. However, I will look at Aravon again the next time I need shoes. The shoes look cuter and more fashionable than the sandals, I think.
