Gaviota 6

I have very flat feet that over pronate. These were highly recommended for comfort and excellent arch support. I was pretty disappointed. The arch support was not enough, felt hard, and slightly too far back for me. I'm a true 7 in sneakers, and I found these to be slightly too long and too wide, even at the Medium width. The style/coloring was nice- I didn't think that they looked super big or ridiculous, but it was more that the comfort and support was not there.

So disappointing when companies revamp items supposedly to bring improvement... Just like when the bondi 8 disappeared, now the gaviota 5 disappeared and the new models don't compare favorably. None of the new models have a wide toe box. Boohoo for me and all the other people who need a wide toe box I guess?

I really like these shoes but they are only a month and half old and the bottoms have holes in them . I am so sad and disappointed especially for this price my brooks lasted me 6 months.

The design has changed for the worse since the 5s. The shoe overall feels more narrow and shorter, stiffer/firmer with less cushioning, but worse is the upper and tongue- the tongue cuts into the front of my leg. I then tried the shoes on in a store a half-size up and it didn’t fully fix the tongue problem. It’s a shame because I loved the 5s.

These are the best shoes I have worn in the last 10 years. I have worn the Bondi version but they had too much cushioning that I felt my feet were not stable. The Gaviota 6’s are even better than the Gaviota 5’s. I have midfoot arthritis and these are very stable and comfortable to wear. I do add pro-power step insersts and now the Podiatrist had me add fiber carbon steel inserts to prevent extra movement in the joints of my feet. I love these shoes! Just bought my 4th pair, two for outside workouts and two pair for indoors so I can rotate between wearing.

These are the best sneakers I have ever owned. A wide width shoe that actually is a wide width shoe! Now if they were slip in I'd buy a lifetime supply!

These sneakers were so comfy. I have flat feet, am a larger person and on my feet all a majority of the day. I have had problems finding good, comfortable, supportive sneakers, so that my feet are aching at the end of the day. These have done the trick. I’m so grateful to not have sore feet. I’m definitely gonna buy another pair and I would 100 percent recommend them.

I ordered two pairs in two different colors and one pair was narrower than the other. One pair pinched my feet as soon as I put it on, the other I was able to put on and wear out for a few hours with no issues.

The foot bed of the sneaker feels real comfortable. However, the sneaker is way to wide. I had gotten the medium width. If you have wide feet these would be great sneakers.

These are dreamy and really put a spring in your step. I'm a true 81/2 and these do run a little long and wide but not so much I want to exchange. I may look at other colors.
