This running shoe features a microfiber and air mesh upper with 3M reflective features. Features an antibacterial, removable molded Durapontex sockliner. Also features a lightweight formula EVA midsole with a dual durometer medial post and an injected shank. Features a two piece, lightweight formula, skeletal rubber outsole with Dura-Stryk™ in the heel.
Features an anatomical cradle which improves both motion control and shock absorption by mimicking the bottom of your heel in the midsole. This translates into less shock on the rest of the body. The cradle also centers and holds the heel firmly in place to reduce twisting on both ankles and knees.
The Cantilever® feature centers the heel over a concave sole. The concave sole acts like a trampoline to soften impact, stabilize the heel and provide increased energy return.
Fit:This style tends to run small. For an accurate fit we recommend purchasing a 1/2 size larger than you typically purchase. For example, if you normally purchase a size 7, we recommend purchasing a size 7 1/2.

This is my second pair of Avi Lites. I bought the first pair from my favorite running store after trying on about 10 pairs of shoes. I like lightweight trainers with wide toe boxes, lots of ventilation, and no gimmicky gels or plastic in the sole. The Avi Lites are perfect. I bought the second pair on Shoebuy because I did not want to schlep out to the running store again. I highly recommend the shoes and the Shoebuy.

The Avias are significantly lighter than other running shoes I've worn. They also have excellent cushioning and support.
