Aravon Women's Hope AR Slip Resistant Work Shoe

I love these shoes - I need more support as arthritis creeps into my feet, and these shoes fit perfectly, provide that support, and look nice. I have narrow feet, and the Aravon division of New Balance (the only brand I can wear in athletic shoes) once again provides that much-needed 2A width. Most women's dressy shoes provide zero support, and I'd be limping after a few minutes of walking - I should be good for at least a few hours in these. (Might not want them for all-day wear, they DO have manmade uppers) Very happy with this purchase

I always like to wear Aravon shoes. It give lots of comfort even wear for a long time. This shoes also work well for me.

they fit ,look great BUT they are NOT SLIP RESISTANT, not good on wet floors

I've had these shoes for a few months and, unfortunately, they are not holding up well. The heel is caving in on the sides, and the synthetic leather material is cracking. I'm disappointed because I really liked the look and feel of the shoes. They come in narrow sizes, the heel was comfortable even though it was raised, and they felt great right out of the box.

As a teacher with plantar fasciitis, I am always on the look out for stylish shoes that are comfortable AND offer great support. I have to say that I loved the look of the shoe and feel of the shoe- it has nice soft leather uppers with plenty of room in the toe box without being "clunky", and I really wanted to keep it. The shoe fit nicely, even with my orthotics inserted. There were two things caused concern for me: 1. My orthotic made the right shoe squeak with every step. I can't be walking around my classroom with squeaky shoes.... :) 2.I know that these shoes have special technology to give support in the arch- I just didn't feel the support I need, even with my orthotics inserted. I suspect that if I had worn them all day in the classroom that my feet would have been very unhappy by the end of the day. As a teacher all day support is essential. If you have issue-free feet I imagine that this would be a wonderfully comfortable shoe. But sadly, I had to return these shoes, thank goodness for free returns!
