text: Previously gave these 5 stars (original review below.)  Today, 6 months after getting them, these shoes started leaking from the bottom sole of right shoe.  It had rained so road was wet, but it was not raining when I went for my walk.  My right foot was soaked by the time I got home.  Will not purchase this brand again.  Disappointed with the lack of quality.  This used to be a good brand.  June 2015: Love these shoes.  For some reason, only Avia wide shoes fit my feet and are comfortable....and these are no exception!  Fit great right out of the box and within a few miles of walking, they had conformed to my feet just right.  I walk several miles every day, on paved roads, dirt roads, and on gravel roads.  These are wonderful on every surface.  Highly recommend.
