LETS TALK AVIA

Do people really not understand what a pre-order is? It's ridiculous that Avia has to post multiple times about that, and include the caption "not a scam." :rolleyes

Also, maaaan, I've been hoping those Pippen rookies would make a comeback...

I just assumed the silhouettes looked different because of camera angle or whatever, but if that's how they look in person then yeah I definitely agree that Aviaisback looks better
Since Avias back doesn’t carry a size 13 looks like it’s Mids or bust for me 😫

Right? Even if you bought them on day 1 of the early release, which was May 3rd, that still puts their promised shipping delivery window sometime between today and June 14th. The people who are complaining either didn't read the description before buying, never bothered to count the days, or they think their excitement means the terms don't actually apply to their order. A lot of people who buy sneakers are addicted to instant gratification and tracking updates.

Those XT 1445 trainers are Avia's answer to the Huarache Plus. No laces, just a strap. 👍

And I'm liking those FT Tech 500c as well. Avia had some great designs.

Ordered these today - been waiting since 1989-90 for them to come back.

Leather is good - not premium, but good. Fit tts and wide footers are good. Comfort is great - midsole isn’t boost/zoom but for a 80’s-90’s shoe they feel good. And for $100, my nostalgia is satisfied (actually had the 860 way back then).

Thank you for sharing. I think I’m gonna have to order these now. Didn’t realize they expanded their sizing on these or the 830’s to up to a sz 15.

Edit: Ordered the red AND green 855’s for $170 shipped.

I’ve got 2 pairs of 550’s and a pair of 650’s (which are still in the box), but I agree about it being a great alternative. Way better price point even without the discount.
