These are the best sneakers out of the last 10 I have has. Unfortunately, after 4 months the bottom of the sole is coming unglued ?

I have this same pair in white in the same size. Fit it great. The black leather shoe is too snug and feels 1/2 size smaller.

fits true to size-vionic is always my first choice- this shoe is stiff-very stiff- and no offense ( I am 70) look like granny shoes - they are shiny -like patient leather

Nothing wrong with the shoe, just heavier on my feet than I wanted. Great arch support.

I have a moderately high arch and like a firm arch support. I ordered several options to see which would fit the best. I like Vionic dress shoes a lot so I tried their walkers. The arch support is jut a little too far back for me. Also the material was stiff and had a pronounced bend on the left shoe. These are going back.
I'd also recommend:
Asics, Brooks and Saucony

I wear a 6.5 and that's what I ordered. The shoe seemed to be a good fit but there was stitching and maybe a seam at the side that really hurt my little toe and side of foot. I returned the shoes and getting something else.

i've got good news and bad news about this shoe. They could very possibly be the most comfortable shoe i've ever worn. Sadly however, they could also be the ugliest shoe I've ever worn. What was vionic thinking? Such a great fit and comfort but too ugly to wear in public. Whoever designed this shoe needs to learn what looks good and what doesn't. Walkers are rarely a thing of beauty but these shoes are actually scary!

They were comfortable but the support was much less than expected. I would have kept them anyhow except that I was too embarrassed by the look of them to wear them out in public.

The length of the shoe was fine, size 8 but the width is slightly snug. I always wear an 8 W. never had a problem. Overall, nice shoe but don't know that I'll keep them because of width.

I really wanted these shoes to work, but they're just a little "off" for me. I ordered my usual size for this type of shoe: 8.5 W. They are a little too wide in the heel and a little too narrow in the toe box. Since I don't need them to be any longer, there doesn't seem to be an option on another size. I think a lot of women have this issue of needing a shoe that's wide in the toe box but "medium" in the heel. But this one doesn't do it for me. But it would be a fine shoe for anyone for whom it fits properly.

I thought I would love this shoe since it was so recommended by podiatrists. But it was just small and narrow, even though I ordered wide and a half size up. Seams were digging into my soles on the sides :-(

I usually love Vionic, but these were not as comfortable for me as I hoped. The toe bed was quite narrow. I have average feet, but these were narrow. The were also quite stiff. I wanted them for walking. I walk every morning 2-4 miles, but these are not the ticket.

The arch support was very comfortable. The problem was with the toe box, full leather construction made it feel like my foot was rubbing against two knots where the vertical leather piece and the horizontal leather piece on the outside of each side of the foot intersect, near the top of the laces. Purchased a wide and this still bothered me. At this price, cannot take the chance the problem will ease up once broken in. Abeo walking shoes have a nice mesh toe box, but the arch support with the Vionic is more comfortable. So, I purchased Vionic insoles and hope they work in my Abeo's.

I ordered this shoe solely to get the arch support. It does not have the arch support from my other Vionic shoes, like the sandals. Also, there is little padding in the toe box and it feels like walking on cement. Wouldn't order again. No better than New Balance.

I'm not sure what happened to this shoe. I owned this shoe for a couple of years when it was called Orthaheel and I was trying to get rid of plantar fasciitis. The last shoe was a 10M and this time I ordered a 10W because of some rubbing on baby toes in the last pair. This new shoe may be a bit wider where the big toe meets the foot, but at the midfoot this shoe is not wide at all. Pressure at outer midfoot that the last shoe did not have. Also, the orthotic insole in this is terrible. Arch support is in the wrong place and not at all comfortable. I tried to put my old Orthaheel Relief orthotics in hoping that would help, but the arch support is still in the wrong place, just in this shoe. Something about the construction of the shoe itself is off. I had seen on another site people complaining about this, but here on Zappos nobody had so I gave it a chance. If you are a wearer of the old Orthaheel Walker, then beware. This shoe looks the same, but does not feel the same. I marked this shoe as "excellent arch support" if the arch hits you in the right place. For me it hit on the heel pad, not even just before the heel pad which would have been acceptable.

After trying several different shoes this one felt like it has the best arch support for my feet. Plenty of room in the toe area for my toes to wiggle and breathe. I got my usual size 11 that I always get in a sneaker for sock allowance for my 10.5 foot. I bought it for wearing all day at work. Wearing them around the house they were very comfortable, but wearing them all day at work on concrete floors showed me that there is no cushioning for the ball of the foot. The next day I added a thin insole but that just took up too much room making my little toes rub against the top of the shoe. Today I will try them with a ball of the foot gel and see how they do. Also discovered that they are NOT non-slip. I slipped and fell on a wet floor.

Vinyl looks less supple than most. Very hard on the feet, not much cushion. Cuts into top of foot with flexion. Not very good quality materials for the cost.

I think they would have been great except that they were too tight on my pinkie toes, both feet. I have somewhat wide feet but not wide enough to wear "wide" size. I wanted them to work out...boo hoo

This is a well-made shoe, but I ordered a 10.5 M after reading so many other reviews that said it ran a half-size large. I would venture to say it runs a full size large, and also seems wide. It has a very pronounced arch, which is good for those of us with flat feet, but I can't say it was comfortable. I'm sending these back, and will probably try another Brooks sneaker, my fave brand.

There are better shoes with more support than these ones,i.e. New Balance. They did nothing for my feet. They also run extremely large. For the price, they are not worth it. Note: I have no affiliation with New Balance shoes

These run big both in length and width. I normally wear an 8.5 M, and ordered these in an 8 based on other reviews. Even in a 1/2 size smaller than I normally wear there was still a thumbs width extra room in the toe area. I'm not sure if they run a full size too big or if they're supposed to be that big. I had no idea if the soles were properly fitting or not because of that. After awhile they seemed to be "okay", but I couldn't get used to the room in the front half of the shoe. My toes cold wiggle, curl under, etc. There was just more room than I'm used to and I much prefer a snugger fit in my shoes. Overall the shoe looked good in the lime green I ordered, but I returned them since they were too wide and too long.

Ordered these in black but they fell apart just 2 weeks after wearing them. Very disappointed. They offered some decent support but I also had my own soles from my Dr. in them. The return process was a little iffy too.
