Asolo CrossLand Avenue Shoes (For Women)

I bought these shoes to wear at work. Overall I am very happy with them and would buy them again. Initially they were unconfortable around the ankle due to a high cut top collar, but they eased after wearing for a couple weeks. While these shoes are good casual shoes they lack the cushioning and support I would expect from a multisport shoe as advertised.

Well, they're not the greatest shoes I've tried on. I like Asolo and really like their Circle shoes. These are more ho hum in terms of styling, comfort, and price. Nothing edgy or cute about them. I see the remarks re: poor cushioning and arch support, but can't write about them because I put my orthotics in. I didn't find them too comfortable though - kind of stiff. I can also see that they might rub the ankle bones of some women. Returned mine.

I was very excited about these shoes until I tried to walk in them. The heel is so high in the back that it rubs on the ankle bones - so back in the box they went.

I bought these for a labor-intensive job at a plant facility, which requires a certain level of shoe protection. I stand and walk all day in them comfortably. I am very impressed by the craftsmanship. I think they will last a long time and take a beating.

Multi-sport shoe? In what Universe, one wonders. Light and flexible on the plus side, they markedly lack support and cushioning. So, somewhat as with people, their strengths are their weaknesses. I indicated that they'd be good for travel. This is primarily because they don't look like athletic shoes (from street to museum to jazz club without anyone raising a disapproving eyebrow), and their soft flexibility would allow them to be easily tucked in a suitcase. But if you're looking for a shoe to keep pace with you while you do a walking tour of Prague, these probably aren't your best friend. I'm in Los Angeles, where walking is less a necessity than an accident, so for me these shoes are great. My new favorites, in fact, to stroll from my house to my car, where I keep Scarpa boots and extra socks in case of a sudden hiking emergency.

This was my first order on Sierra Trading Post and I couldn't be happier! These are constructed well, are comfortable, water proof, and have great traction. I am a casual hiker and these shoes look great under jeans. I recommend them!

Arch support is unfortunately minimal and there is too much flexibility and insufficient cushioning in the forefoot. I like the shoe but support is critical to me and I don't think I could put a full support insole in the shoe and still wear socks. I did try a 3/4 arch support.I'm disappointed because my foot is narrow in the heel and wide at the ball, and these have the correct fit--just not the support I need.
