Customer Reviews VIONIC Tide

I really like these flip-flops. I've had "fit flops" for at least three years and I like these every bit as much. Lots of support; feel great!

I noticed the difference the moment I put them on in how my body felt better in these vs basic flip flops. I am a bit disappointed in the width of the straps across my feet. I have average width feet and they feel loose so I worry how much more they will stretch after long periods of walking in them.

Every time that I would wear flip-flops my back and hips would bother me until someone told me about OrthoHeels. What a delight they are! I walked all day in New York City and to my amazement I had no back or hip pain. I can still wear flip-flops and my feet are cool and I cannot say enough good things about them. They are worth every penny

I generally like to think I am fashionable, but unfortunately, my feet really do not cooperate. I am young, and I definitely did not want to buy old lady shoes for my bunions, bunionettes, my low arches, and over pronation. It is a shame I can't wear simple flip flops anymore, until I found these shoes. I had read so many reviews about this shoe. Both good and bad but I must say, this shoe is amazing. I did a super long 3 hour walk (no stopping) at a decent pace, and my feet were so comfortable. Don't be scared though - when I first got them, the straps did rub against my skins, and I did get some blisters. After my blisters healed however, these shoes were very comfortable and I never blistered again (I blister very easily). If you get blisters, keep them for a bit before thinking about returning them. They have been a savior, and made me believe that I can wear flip flops again. I have been wearing these daily. The don't look orthopedic, they aren't particularly fashionable, but simple enough that nobody will notice ugly shoes. The only thing I don't like about it is that it says Orthaheel on the bottom. But when they are this comfortable, and don't look insanely ugly, who cares!? Oh, and I am generally a solid 6.5 in shoes and did the suggested half size smaller. my feet are very wide (my doc said my feet are equivalent to the width of a man's foot) and they are totally fine.

Finally a nice summer sandal/flip flop that I can wear all day without the plantar pain kicking back up the next day. They are comfy and easy to walk in. I used to wear Birkenstock's, but even those began to fail me when it came to foot pain. I have 2 different pair of these flip flops. I have not tried any of the other Orthaheel sandals, but these are great. The black looks really nice and a little dressier (if flip flops can be dressy) with the patent leather strip on the straps. I had to send back the first pair and go down a size, and then fit was perfect for me.

I bought these for a trip in a few months where I'll be doing a great deal of walking but didn't want close-toed shoes. I've been wearing them to get used to the arch support and I really like them. They are sturdy and comfortable and they look good.

I have been wearing Orthaheel for years. My sister has recently been having plantar fasciitis problems, so I recommended these. She loves them! She wears a 7.5, so I ordered both a 7 and an 8, and the 8 fit better, sent the 7s back. I'm thinking of getting another color for myself now.

Absolutely love these flip flops. I now have them in 3 different colors and live in them all summer. Extremely comfortable and love the added support they give your feet, while still looking stylish.

I have been suffering with plantar fasciitis for over a year and have literally spent hundreds of dollars going to doctor for ultra sound and wrapping, plus inserts of all kinds. This shoe has given back my ability to walk again. They take a bit of adjustment over a few days like some of the other reviews said but I felt that was because I had not had the proper alignment previously. This style has the width I needed as well. I ordered another style with stones on them but they were definitely more narrow. These are the first things I put when getting up and the last thing I take off when going to bed! Love them!

I have some problems with high arches and foot pain when I do not wear shoes with proper support. I haven't been able to wear flip flops for years. These are comfortable with great arch support and I wear them around the house and in the yard. They are expensive for a flip flop but seem to be well constructed.

These are great shoes, I have bunions and plantar fasciitis and these shoes are great. Much more than I would normally spend on flip-flops but I ended up buying my daughter a pair too because she also has some foot problems. The arch support is great and they are wide enough to accommodate the wide ball of my foot.

I love Orthaheel; one of the only sandals that I can wear and not have plantar factitious pain. This is my fourth pair of Orthaheel. The photo for the pewter color looks very light, almost a sliver and white, which is what I was looking for. Once I received it, it is actually a dark metal, well, pewter. It’s nice, but not what I was wanting. Will return and get the white. The Tide sandal for me runs bigger. I ordered one size smaller. It runs a little wide, which is perfect for me.

I bought these sandals just before a trip to Paris, France and I am so glad that I did. I also took my Merrell shoes, and these sandals were by far more comfortable! I walked in them for miles and miles while in Paris. I will probably never wear the Merrells again! I want some leather Orthaheels and will be looking to buy some soon. I will be purchasing more sandals too! I wear an 8½ to a 9 in most shoes but ordered an 8 and they are perfect. If you have problems with your arches or your heels, Orthaheels are the best. Try them! They have a 30 day, money back guarantee.

Awesome flip flop! I usually wear a 7.5 or 8 in shoes and had to go down to 7 for the right fit.

First of all, let me say Woot to Zappos - these shoes arrived next day with no extra shipping charge! When I first got these, I thought they were going back as the arch was so high. Decided to give them a try and boy am I glad I did! I have plantar fasciitis and can wear these all day - my feet are pain free at night. Am ordering them in black as well - pricey but worth every penny!

I can't say enough good about these Orthaheel flip flops. I have been suffering with heel pain for months (in the summer, for years) and just recently discovered it's because of the cheap sandals/shoes (with no arch support) I've been wearing. I bought a pair of these and the relief was almost immediate. I thought I'd wear them for a few hours the first day, but other than a little discomfort from the thong, my heel felt so good that I wore them all day. It's the first time in months that I went to bed and my foot wasn't throbbing and burning. I bought three more pairs of the Orthaheel sandals yesterday, I can't wait to wear them. I used to dread walking, but heck, I may start walking for exercise now! These are awesome sandals for those suffering from Plantar fasciitis and I wish I'd have bought them years ago.

Love this shoe. Going to order in more colors. From the day I got them I could walk all day in them.

Very comfortable good quality sandal. I have been suffering from plantar facitis & a heel spur and needed a more supportive shoe. These have even great I'm really glad I ordered them and I highly recommend!

I love these sandals! I suffer from Plantar Faciitis and they have helped tremendously! They are extremely comfortable! I have several pairs in different colours, and even have a pair just to wear around the house! I have recommended them to family and friends, and they love them too! For half sizes order one size down. My measured foot size is a 7 1/2 and the size 7 fit me perfectly!

I bought these sandals because I have a Morton's Neuroma right now and needed a flip flop for the summer that would enable me to take the pressure off of the painful nerve. I love love love them! I got a pair of black because they would be most versatile and I wear them everywhere. I also get lots of people telling me how cute they are for "special" sandals. I originally bought a size 8, which is my normal size, and they fit, but they were a little too long for my foot. I ordered a 7 and they fit perfectly! They take a few wears to break in because they will mold to your foot's shape. Well worth the $$ and I would like to buy another pair!

Another great Orthaheel product. Gives me a break from my orthotics in the warm weather. Back and feet feel great after a full day on my feet.

They feel great on my feet! The arch support is high and the heel cup is deep so they take some "breaking in." Perfect fit for me and my feet are a bit wide.

My podiatrist recommended these sandals to me four years ago when he was treating my plantar fasciitis and I have been wearing them, daily, ever since. I spend my days standing and walking on hard surfaces and I credit these sandals for keeping my feet pain free.

These are my second pair. I have lived in them this summer and walked literally miles in them. They are extremely comfortable on long city type walks.

Very supportive. I have sensitive feet and normally can not wear flip flops because the straps cut into me. These have very soft straps. I love the arch support. I wore them all day at the water park and was fine until I got the straps wet. Then they rubbed me. So keep them dry!
