Avia Women's Gel Sneaker, Wide Width Available

I can tell by the weight of the sneaker and insole thickness that it will be a casual sneaker that won't offer a good amount of support for my ankles, feet and knees for distance walking. However for a gym class or weight lifting, they will work perfectly. I understand why quality means higher cost so it makes sense.

I own 7 pairs of Avia athletic shoes bought thru Walmart in the past 2 years. Typically the reduced price items are off-season but they are the same Avia shoes. In the past I bought Avia at Macy's and DSW so I know the brand. I am 5' tall which really affects a shoe's height fitting me correctly (this shoe hits me just below my ankle bone so it doesn't push up against the bone and is comfortable to wear). This brand is a go-to for me. Another comment: I go up a half size for winter shoes so that they fit properly when wearing socks. I walk 2 miles every day and have noticed no joint or foot pain from this shoe. I'll keep buying this item even if I don't need them!

I can't believe that I got these on clearance. They came quickly and exactly how I hoped. I have never worn the brand AVIA before. They were a bit large but not enough that an insert couldn't solve. Only wore once but while I had them on they were very comfortable and supportive.

my granddaughter has wide feet. shes 5 4 160 lbs and her foot is more of a 9 by inches shoe chart and wide, but shoes run, small. (her moms a 10 her dads a 12, so ya know ... the 10 wide fits perfect with sicks even. feel comfortable, bright colors. she loves them.

These run very large! If you have normal or slim feet go down a half a size! I got them on sale so they were sold out by the time I got them so I just got an extra gel insert which made them fit better and made them extra comfy!! I walked all over Europe in them! But I do recommend getting an extra insole for comfort as I don't think they would have been as comfy otherwise.

I'm sick and tired of paying a TON of money for sport shoes that claim they are great quality only to use them up in 1 year or less and throw them away. These sport shoes are very comfortable and a great value, even if they don't last a year at least I didn't have to pay $100 for them. I love the bright colors too.

My gosh these are great shoes for the price. They feel great, are very supportive and look terrific. I have Brook Ghost running shoes and I wear these more often!!! These are one of my best buys and I went back and bought them in two more colors. Gotta try a pair!!!

Loved the first pair I got and went back for two more pair in different colors. These shoes are wonderful!! I am diabetic and need really comfortable shoes, but with good support. These are as nice as my Brooks Ghost shoes. You can't go wrong with these!!

I thought I was getting lucky to get these half price. They fit just a tad bit loose in length. The bad part is after I wore them a cpuple of times, the left shoe developed a sharpness in the upper heel area and I have to wear a bandaid on my heel to wear them now. It actually seems to be getting worse. And because I wore them outside and they no longer look clean and new, I'm stuck with them. So instead of getting a very good deal, I wasted my money.

Ordered them in July and they're already torn up. I bought them as a cheap emergency pair until I could afford better ones and they couldn't withstand my daily workout routine. They look nice but unfortunately for my feet there was very little support and I felt foot strain.
