Overall good shoe - This shoe is very comfortable and supportive of the arch. I always like a shoe less on my foot (because it's so big!) but this one is really cute on as well.

Love them! These shoes are very comfortable, and the fit is great. I love the look. I am going to order another pair while I can still find them. I know they are running shoes but I bought them for walking. You can wear them all day and not want to take them off.

Great running shoes - The shoes are comfortable and fit true to size. They have been great for running and I am totally satisfied with them.

A Great Shoe - I love these shoes. I bought 2 pairs, one for the gym and one for work. I couldn't be happier. I have a heel spur and these shoes put me back in the gym. I will be buying these again.

The perfect Shoe!! I walk 3 miles a day. I love these shoes because they have good support and are very light!!! I've tried others and these work the best for me.

Cute But Loose. .. Zappos is amazing. I ordered these shoes at 8 or 9 at night and had them the afternoon of the following day. I read the reviews and thought, "I'll give these a try," but I probably should have stuck to the Rykas. The shoes are definitely nice-looking, but I have to pull the laces ridiculously hard to get them to feel form-fitting. I like a secure, snug sneaker.

Brands I'd also recommend: I like Rykas. . .still.

Great shoe - This shoe is great! Did not need to break them in. I ware these shoes every day to work and am very happy with them although I did add an insert. Some shoes when adding an extra cushion in the shoe my socks would walk down or shoe felt too tight. These worked great with no problem.

Avia A5020W - First of all, shipping was SO fast. The shoes arrived the day after I ordered them, and you don't even have to pay shipping! That was awesome. I bought the shoes to help with my shin splints; unfortunately they hardly have any arch support at all. They do have good cushion in the heel though and they fit snug so it feels like I have good support in other areas. The shoes look really good too. But you get what you pay for, and this is one of the cheaper pairs of running shoes and I'd say they are for beginners only- a person who has been running for a long time might not be satisfied with their performance. All in all, they are a good shoe. I liked everything about them except the lack of arch support.

Sporty fit - I do a lot of walking and this athletic shoe is very comfortable. I needed a shoe with good support and I'm very happy with this shoe's arch support since I have noticed recently a lot of athletic shoes are lacking in support and comfort. I've also have gotten lots of compliments are the style of this shoe.

Great everyday shoe - I bought these shoes (at a department store--hey, I needed the sale price!), and they were the most comfortable shoe for the lowest price. They feel very much like my old Spalding shoes, which I'm devastated to find aren't made anymore. Those shoes lasted me for years, in fabulous comfort down to the last day, and I hope these Avia will do the same. I'm not a runner, I just like comfortable athletic shoes for everyday wear. And because I don't need them to be "high-tech", I don't feel I should have to pay for "high-tech". Frankly, I don't feel that I should have to pay more than $30 for a non-specialty shoe, ever. These Avias, on sale, are just about right. Good padding, snug fit, adequate depth in the heel, and plenty of 'give' in the heel cushioning. I'm not wild about the ice blue color, but you can't have everything.

Good Shoe - I am not an avid runner, so I am not comparing this shoe to some of the high end running shoes. But it is very comfortable with good heel support. I use it for light running and the gym. I have found that Avia tennis shoes are very sturdy and long lasting.

Avia works well - Took a little breaking in and my feet did get blisters but after a week they cleared up. Overall great shoe for a good price.

Excellent Work Out Shoes - I do anywhere from 1 - 2 hours of cardio a day. Mostly bike, elliptical, no running. I was able to wear these shoes comfortably at the gym on the first day. I did get a little tingling in my foot on the elliptical after a few days, but that happens to me a lot so I wouldn't entirely blame the shoes. My last pair of Avias lasted 2 years. I'm sure these will do just the same.

Love these shoes - Zappos, please get more size 10s in - They're so comfortable and I was able to fit all my orthotic supports in them. (That's why I need such a huge size).

Good shoe for walking, but not great for running. Got blisters in my arches the first time I ran in them. Cute and comfortable for going to the gym, but I'll need another pair of shoes for running.

Great shoe especially for problem feet - I love this shoe! I like the fact that I can remove the insoles & replace them with orthotics. Also, with a bunion on one foot, the mesh area in the front of the shoe gives, so no pain in that area, even with a medium width shoe! The other foot had a bunion correction, and that shoe feels great also. I'll buy this style shoe again, can't beat the comfort & stability it gives me. When it comes to comfortable feet, I'm sticking with this shoe!!!! EXCELLENT product! I've had numerous surgeries on one foot & have problems with the other, so I have to wear shoes when I want to walk without pain, these are my pick for no pain when I walk, I constantly wear them until I go to bed at night!

Great shoe - I have a pair similar and they have been my favorite for a couple of years. Zappos showed the soles in the picture, which matched my old soles, they the turned out to be a pretty good fit. I ordered them in 2 different colors and the lighter blue ones are just a tad short in the toe, but definitely wearable.
