I have bad feet and I've had dozens of different shoes from big buck to pay-less cheap.
I've found the ones that are best for "my" foot are Avia cross trainers.
I bought a pair years ago and they were one of the most comfortable for me.
So, I went back and bought ALL they had in my size at 3 different Shoe Carnival stores.
I'm on my last pair now and they've discontinued that particular model
So, I search now for another shoe that fits "my" foot well.
When I find one, I'll buy as many of them as I can find
PS, personally, I can't tell if it will be a "good" shoe for my til after I've worn them a day or two.
I've bought some that felt good in the store, but not so good after a day or two in them.
That's why when I find a show that fits me well, I go back and buy more
..L.T.A.
