Customer Reviews VIONIC Tide

I just received my shoes this morning and immediately put them on. I love them! I have 2 pair of the Orthaheel Walking shoes and love them. I get hip pain when wearing certain shoes; however, when I wear the Orthaheel, no pain whatsoever. I like flip flops in the summer, which is why I ordered the "Tide". I am so glad I did. Now I can wear these all day long, while on vacation in Hilton Head, and be free of pain. Thanks Zappos for immediate delivery. I will shop your site from now on.

I love the arch support. It's great as a house shoe since with my plantars fasciitis I need support at all times.

These shoes are great! Within a few minutes of putting them on I could tell a big difference in the alignment of my feet and ankles. I actually felt a little burning when I first put them on but it went away...and I can tell a big difference when I wear other flip flops...will definitely order more of these. Please get more of the coral in a size 12! :)

This is a no brainer! I have high arches, these feel so good! My daughter tried mine on so, of course, I had to get her a pair too. As far as sizing, if you are a half size, go down. These are just wonderful and comfortable and they are flip-flops. What am I going to do in the winter? They are highly recommended.

Amazing flip flop. The arch support on these is amazing. The strap was a little snug at first but gave just enough to be comfortable after a few hours. I actually found I liked this because it allowed me to wear them comfortably without having to use my toes or change my gait to keep them on.

Orthaheel flip-flops are the only ones I can wear due to having very flat feet. These are the most comfortable shoes I own. Love them and love the purple.

Love these! Luckily these seem to run a little wide. I normally wear an 8 1/2 W so I ordered a 9 and it fits comfortably in this particular style. I ordered a couple other Orthaheel styles in a 9 and they both were too narrow. I have pronation, a bunion, heel pain and back pain. These flip flops are some of the most comfortable shoes I have worn. Hopefully they start to offer some wide width options.

I wear orthotics and this is the first flip flop that gives me arch support. Love the color options!

Great flip flops or sandals! I have heel pain and plantar fasciitis and these sandals ease the pain in my heel. I wear orthotics (which I cannot wear with these sandals), but I have been been wearing these sandals every day after lunch to give me a break with my heel pain. If you're thinking about these sandals...go for it. Mine were stolen at a restaurant (in a shopping bag that I forgot to pick up after lunch), so I am replacing them!

I really do like the Orthaheel Tide sandals. Initially, I thought they were very hard and uncomfortable. After wearing them for 3-4 hours a day for several days, I discovered that they were very comfortable. Just took a little getting used to before I could wear them all day. They surely have excellent support and my legs and feet feel great. I intend to try the Orthaheel Wave sandals, also, but if you're looking for good support, you can't go wrong with these. Also, the piece between the toes is soft so it doesn't hurt. I normally wear a half size and I tried to size down. That didn't work for me, I had to return them and go with the next larger size.

This is the very best flip flop sandal I ever bought! These are absolutely supportive, especially if you have plantar facitis. I needed to size down by a size, for a perfect fit, and ended up purchasing an additional pair in another color.

I bought these because I had plantar fasciitis. I wore them for a couple of hours for two evenings and my knees and lower back became very painful. I loved the look and feel on my feet but they caused too much discomfort to continue wearing.

Hello, this is my first purchase with Zappos and I am thoroughly delighted. I have degenerative spine disease and cannot wear footwear without good support. Sandals for summer have been problematic. These Orthaheels are the answer! Total support, less back pain. Could not be more satisfied.

Awesome service from Zappos and really comfortable flip flop from Orthaheel after you get use to it.

Very comfortable, they do run large. I usually wear a 9 in shoes and ended up going with the size 8, in this case.

LOVE These sandals! I'm a retired 60-yr-old flight attendant who spent years on my feet in bad shoes. I'm a 7 to 7 1/2 so I usually have to go to an 8 to get the width I need, since my right foot pronates more than my left making the right shoe tighter. Also, I can never seem to get enough arch support in a sandal. I wear Merrill, Fitflop, Chaco, New Balance, Clarks, and ShapeUps. I thought these would be too narrow based on other reviews. So I ordered an 8, which was too long and loose with the orthotic correction in these shoes. I reordered a 7 and it is wonderful. The length is right and my feet don't pronate (roll inward to flatten the arch)! The right was a little snug but the strap stretched quite easily and now feels nearly perfect on the first wearing. And they aren't a half inch too long like all my other sandals!!! I would love to try the dressier styles but have read that they run more narrow. I will definitely be buying the orthotic for my athletic shoes. Thanks Zappos! ;-)

I love the comfort of the flip flop, I had first ordered my regular size 12 but was too big for me so I exchanged for 11...perfect fit! I stand for a living so these shoes make a world of difference for me!

I have plantar fasciitis on one foot and Achilles tendinitis on the other. I was afraid I was not going to be able to wear flip flops this summer and then I found the Orthaheel Tide. This is extremely comfortable and I can wear it all day even when out shopping without any pain. At first it seemed like it was going to be too wide since I have average width feet, but it is perfect. I also thought the arch would bother me, but I got used to it the first day I wore these sandals. I even bought another pair in a different color. I usually wear a 6 1/2 and ordered the 6 in these sandals. They fit perfectly. It is nice to have a sandal that is comfortable and does not look orthopedic or like an "old lady" shoe. Zappos is great to work with and extremely customer friendly.

Love these sandals! The arch is so beneficial for a person like myself with back problems. Stylish as well.

I just received these today, so I have only worn them around inside. But, I can tell these will be great for wearing around this summer.

Last fall I found myself with both plantar fasciitis and a torn meniscus as a result of an exercise-related injury. Among the several strategies I employed, including PT, and cold compresses, I also bought this excellent sandal. It aligns the leg beautifully! I have a narrow foot and found the foot bed to be similarly narrow; however, the straps are sloppy. I have had to pad them to make it work for me. I do intend to invest in other styles, making the necessary adjustments. This shoe was recommended by both the podiatrist and orthopedist.

Just wonderfully comfy! Thee are my third pair of Tide sandals...wanted something metallic and they are more brown than bronze, but not complaining! Feel wonderful and go with everything. These were intended to be my wear-in-the-house pair, but now may have to get another pair.

Very sturdy flip flop with fantastic arch support. As one who wears an insert in her shoes, I can recommend this flip flop to others who felt they shouldn't be wearing flip flops! So glad I purchased and it comes in a crazy amount of colors.

Love these shoes! I had an issue with the first pair (they arrived looking worn), but Zappos customer service was stellar and took care of it immediately!

I love these flip-flops! It was difficult to spend the money on them since you can buy cheap flip-flops from other stores, but these are worth every penny! These are cute flip-flops that provide amazing support. If you love flip-flops and cannot wear them anymore due to not having enough support, buy these!
