I was so disappointed that I couldn't wear these slippers. I need the arch support, and they seemed so comfortable and soft -- but they were so wide, even when adjusted as tightly as possible, that my feet just slid around in them. I wish Vionic would make narrow sizes!

The size was excellent. The arch support did not work for me. My arches are much flatter than the ones in the slippers. I have MS and my legs started to spasm within 20 minutes of putting on the slippers. I have to return them.

Not worth the price but good for summer. Has arch support but not enough width in the straps.

These were nice, but like several people have commented, it is hard to get them fastened tightly enough to stay on. The fastener should be farther down on the foot; the way it is now, it's easy to "walk" out of them. They are somewhat hard but offer good support, but because they can come off too easily, I'm returning them.

Fabric stretched in spots and is breaking away after less than a week. I've had several pairs of slippers from vionic over the years and never experienced this problem before.

I love "excellent support", when it comes in shoes like Danskos. The high arch of the Orthaheel brand, does not work for me. It's like a tennis ball in the arch, with overall comfort lacking. As for the slipper, after making multiple adjustments to the velcro closure, although snug, the straps did not feel comfortable for moving around. In general, the support is there, but the comfort is lacking.

I have now worn these slippers for the last three days, off and on of course, and find them to be hard and stiff as boards. The arch support is too much. It feels like there is a golf ball stuck in the shoe. I also have plantar fasciitis and high arches and was hoping for some relief. It's just not there for me. As it is I have worn them too much to return them. So, I am going to continue to try to "break them in". The slippers seem to be made well and like they would last some time, thus the two star rating. Hopefully the comfort will come after some wear time.

I was so excited to get these slippers. However, after a month they just fell apart. The arch support was gone and the heel had no support. Also, the material started shedding. I am 5'7" and weigh 139 pounds so I'm not a heavy person at all. I live in a pet and smoke free home and have not worn these slippers outside. My picture shows 1 month of wear. I really hate leaving a low grade on any product, but these slippers are a waste of money. Look look at other manufacturers and products. If I could I would return them, but they have been worn so I'm out of luck.

I love Bionic flip flops so thought to try the slippers. I prefer arch support as I have a tendency to pronate. Initially I felt pretty good in these slippers. I didn't wear them often so didn't notice any arch issues. Since January i've been in the house more due to the weather and have been wearing the slippers a few hours every day. I started having arch pain and then ankle pain. I went to my podiatrist and we walked (no pun intended) through my days for the previous week. My podiatrist determined there could be an issue with either the slippers or my cold weather ankle boots and asked me to bring them to the office. I did. He measured my feet as if I were being measured for an orthotic and then measured the slippers and the booties. The right foot slipper was perfectly aligned for proper arch support. The left foot was not. The arch rides up the side of the slippers more than it should. This in turn created pain on the outside of the arch and the bottom part of the arch pressed on my foot making it almost feel like it was twisting. I am now at the point of needing physical therapy. The booties had no alignment issues, thank goodness! So a waste of $65.00 and who knows how much in physical therapy co-pays.
It is possible this is an isolated defect but I would suggest walking around in them in the house right away. If you feel even the smallest twinge in you arch, beware, it will get worse. I chose moderate arch support in my review because that's what it should have been.

So sad. Vionics have great arch support. But these slippers had the adjustable tabs sewn into the top of the footbed which cut into the actual width of the shoe which rubbed on both side of my toes. I'll have to return them and look for a different slipper style.

These are the most uncomfortable things that I have ever owned. They are stiff, hard with no padding inside at all; just cloth over hard rubber!

Because I need arch support even when just walking around inside at home, I decided to pick these up when I saw them on sale. They are great! Unfortunately the sale was because they were being discontinued.

I have flat feet and am at risk of getting bunions. My doctor told me that I need to wear supportive sandals around the house. These are super comfortable and cute.

Best slippers ever! I have been wearing these for years. They last a long time, and when they finally wear out I buy another pair. I have high arches and issues with plantar fasciitis, and these work really well for me and significantly reduce my foot pain. I have both the open toes and closed toe style so I can use them year round.

I have gotten super comfy in these after just a day of breaking them in. I like that I can adjust the velcro because they felt a bit big upon arrival, but I like having the option to adjust later in my pregnancy if my feet swell.

These are great house shoes! Our hard floors are a pain on my lower back, legs, & feet; so I've resorted to spendy orthotic slippers. My first pair was a slide on clog style that was not Vionics. This is my first pair and I would recommend these as the best supporting house slipper. I like that it is an open toe & I can wear them in the summer & not cook my feet. Cute too!

I swear by these slippers. They provide excellent support and comfort. When I began to have foot pain years ago, I was advised to stop going barefoot. I started wearing these slippers at home and the foot pain is gone. This is my 7th purchase of Vionic slippers (over quite a few years).

Picked a sale pattern to try and they are so supportive. These are what I wear at home so I don't have arch or outside foot issues from walking barefoot in hardwood floors.

It’s like wrapping your feet in a soft cloud and being supported when you walk. I had excruciating Plantar Fasciitis for 4 months. I decided that I had nothing to lose and decided to order these because they claimed to help. They didn’t just help, they actually allowed me to walk, within a week I had no pain. I swear I’m not exaggerating when I say they literally saved my sanity. The inside arch support was like a miracle.
If you have similar issues this shoe is a must. I want a pair that I can wear outside shopping too without my friends telling me I’m wearing slippers! ?????????

I liked the fact that the arch support was noticeably supportive - just what I needed. The royal blue really put a smile on my face.
