Very comfortable and cute. Love the ability to adjust the fit with Velcro bows. I normally wear a 10W. I had to exchange them for a 9 normal width. Love them.

My feet practically sighed when I put these on! The arch support is excellent, the straps are so soft. These are especially great for anyone with bunions since you can adjust the velcro straps. They do run about 1/2 size big I think. Unfortunately as much as I like them, I'm sending them back, because even with sizing down there is still too much room in front of my toes--this is an issue I have since apparently I have short toes! I don't like having extra room showing up there. If you have toes that aren't stubby these will be fine, it's a "me" problem, not the shoe's problem. I would still recommend these shoes!

I heeded others' warnings and ordered 2 sizes. The pair that was a a full size smaller than my usual size was the best fit, but I found the arch support really weird and uncomfortable. It felt like it extended too far toward the outside of my foot, instead of just being under my arch. As a result, it felt like my foot was folded over this lump across the entire width of the insole. Hope that makes sense. Sad, because I loved the style with the little bows!

I usually wear a size 8 1/2. After I read the reviews, I ordered a half size smaller yet these are too big. There is not the correct size in the this color.

I usually wear a 6.5 or 7 medium, but these were too big. I might even have to try a 6.
Sent them back for exchange but they were out of stock. Currently on the waitlist.

These shoes are SO cute, well made, leather is beautiful but they were too big in a 6 1/2. I have many pairs of Vionic shoes always wear 6 1/2 or 7.
I am ordering them in a 6. Keep your fingers crossed I really want these shoes.
Thank you Zappos for making everything so easy from ordering to returns to exchanging.

You need to double check what size you actually are sent inside the shoe. I ordered a 6.5 twice and both times received a size 7 which is why the 7 is likely sold out.

I love the look of these sandals and bought them specifically for an upcoming cruise. I usually wear a 10 wide, but they run large, and I was literally walking out of them. Exchanged for a 9.5 medium and they fit well. The footbed has great arch support but the area under the toes felt a little hard and lumpy while the strap across the middle of my foot is a bit stiff and causing discomfort and redness wearing them. I've been wearing them around the house for the last week with socks to break them in and they are starting to feel very comfortable. I think by the time I leave for my cruise they will be well broken in and still cute.

Really cute but strange sizing. I usually wear an 7.5 to 8 and based on other reviews, I bought both the black and cream in a 6.5 and 7. The black 7s fit perfectly. The cream 7s were huge, the 6.5 was very wide and too short. The black 6.5 fit differently than the cream 6.5 . Seems to be lack of consistency in quality control for sizing. I kept the 7s. Sent the others back

Really cute, but a little too big for my narrow feet which flopped around a bit inside them. I think a size smaller might be too small, but that's thanks to my finicky feet. Soft and comfortable, wish they'd worked!

Just overall not a good fit. A bit too long and the width was a little much and I do not have narrow feet.

The shoe was too big and too stiff. I loved the style, they were beautiful, but it felt more like Birkenstock than the vionics I wear.

Felt fine but looked a bit sloppy, like slippers or very casual slides.

I love the style, but the arch support hits the wrong place in my feet. The reccomended size was half size smaller than my regular size, and it fit - except for the arch. I would not get this brand again.

I purchased these to wear as summer slippers and they are beautiful for that purpose. Unfortunately, they rubbed my foot just above the arch so cannot be worn.

The fit and size are fine. However, the footbed is SO stiff that the shoes make me knees hurt. Returning them.

Am not pleased with these sandals. Very bulky, not comfortable at all.
