Very comfortable. Did my daily walk in them from the get go. Required no break-in period. Pleased with the fit and the color.

I wear a variety of brands. It depends on the shoe.

Exact product I was looking for. Have had this sneaker for walking and needed to replace the old pair. Ordered on Labor Day and they arrived the next day! That's service.

I have high arches and wide feet that do not take immediately, if ever, to most shoes. I have tried expensive to lower priced so that price just was not an issue anymore, only the comfort of the shoes. I walk a couple miles per day, so, by the end of the walk, the proof is in the pudding. When these shoes arrived and I tried them on, my whole body gave a sigh of relief. Nothing has changed. I really was skeptical of the price, however, not any more. It is possible to buy quality at a lower price if you know your labels, and Avia is a winner for me.

Great value for the price point. These are comfortable, good fit and my orthotics fit with no problem.

Considering how inexpensive these shoes are - they are extremely comfortable! I use these shoes for going to the gym and I am very pleased with the quality of this shoe. I wear a 7.5 and ordered this size and was very pleased with the fit.

Great shoes, very light and good support. I have a hard time finding wide shoes in the stores. I will most likely purchase them only from Zappos from now on. Great service, too!

They fit right out of the box and didn't need to break them in. I like them so much and my feet feel so much better I am about to order a second pair to keep at work to exercise on break.

These took some breaking in due to the stitching on top rubbing my big toes. Now, after a few wears, they feel fine.

Very lightweight and lots of air flow through the shoe. Perfect for people on their feet all day.

Such fast delivery I was stunned! I don't think I will shop for shoes again. Zappos is superior to any other company I have ordered from.

Speedy delivery. Shoes are very comfortable right out of the box. The mesh makes them cooler for summer walking.

Love it. Put it on, started walking - a lot - and have never had any problems at all. Have walked at least 50 miles in these shoes, a lot of it in pretty hot, humid weather. They cushion the feet and feel great.

Right out of the box these fit well, were lightweight, and were very comfortable. I really like them and would recommend them.

I live in the country and do not have access to shopping malls. Purchasing my shoes on-line from Zappos is wonderful. I read all the reviews for the shoe before I purchase and they are extremely helpful. Can't go wrong with free shipping.

These shoes were a great value for the low price, however I had to send the first pair back as they run large. Once I received a smaller size I was very happy with them.

Love these shoes! Excellent quality for the price. I walk about 3 miles each day 5 days a week outside so my walking shoes get plenty of wear. More comfortable than more expensive brands that I have purchased previously.

I have purchased at least 4 pairs of these shoes over the past two years, from Zappos! The service is excellent! The shoes fit great and feel great, and I'm just about ready to order another pair! I absolutely love them, and for someone who has two bad knees, it was essential for me to find something to wear that didn't make my knees hurt all the time! Thank you Avia and Zappos!

As soon as I put these shoes on my feet, I knew that I had finally found them! Seriously, people, I had shopped an entire outlet mall of other name brand shoes finding many in my size and I was very hopeful. I was even ready to pay the price for more expensive shoes had I found any that fit. I am always in between sizes, width too narrow, weird colors. I found nothing. I wear a size 9½ medium but my feet run a little wide. I also have high arches. These shoes accommodate both with no break in period and the price is right! I may order another pair to stash for the next time I need to replace shoes!

I wear these at the gym on the treadmill / elliptical / bike. Super comfortable so far and a great price. Don't know how they'd be for long distance running or sports-specific activities like tennis or zumba.

I've had several pairs of Avia shoes and have really loved them. This pair (ordered the same size as those I've had before) is larger, when compared side by side to my other Avia shoes. I wish I'd worn them more inside so that I could return them. Oh well. Just keep in mind that they run large.

I have worn this particular shoe for quite a few years and like it. It has a wide toe box if that is important to you and it runs true to its size. Some brands vary in the same size! They are lightweight, but I do buy replacement insoles as these offer no cushioning. I wish they did not have the mesh that gets dirty long before the shoes are worn out. I find it impossible to clean.

The major reason I ordered these shoes was because they are offered in wide. I have Morton's Neuroma and bunions. I am not sure that they really are wide, rather just longer. Anyway, my minor bunions have the space they need due to the design, the shoe is soft and stretchable over the area needed. If my bunions were more severe, this shoe would not be ideal.

I had great hopes for these based on the other reviews. When I received them they fit great, very comfortable and not heavy on my feet. They were great for about 5 hours walking around Disney World but then my little toe started getting a blister, also the ball and heel of both feet started hurting. However, it could be just my feet. I've always had trouble with shoes that don't end up hurting after long periods of walking. I'm used to wearing flip flops just about everywhere but don't like to wear them in crowded public places (like planes or amusement parks etc - fear of getting my feet stepped on). Overall though, especially for the price, these sneakers are great. They did keep my feet from hurting up to 5 hours! I've had others where I had to buy a pair of Crocs within an hour.

These shoes are right on the money, they are inexpensive so they are not the best shoe I've bought but they certainly are not the worst. In athletic shoes, I'm usually a half size larger than a sandal or heel size and this was true here too. I wear 8 1/2 sandal, bought a 9 in this Avia, fits perfectly. Not a terrible shoe for the money!

I ordered these shoes last week. They run NARROW! They also run 1/2 size short! First order, Zappos sent me a size 11 when I ordered 6-1/2. Reordered the 6-1/2 only to find they are too narrow! I don't have wide feet but I have nerve damage in one foot and cannot wear a shoe that "squeezes" the sides of my feet...so back they go too. Still haven't decided on whether to place a 3rd order!
