Customer Reviews VIONIC Walker

I They have a very high arch like other Orthaheels except they are a lot harder without cushioning which is harder than I was expecting. I can put in a insert to make softer but I am still unsure if I like these. I love other orthaheel bedroom shoes and last year's model of the flip-flops and their flat mules I love for the comfort. I wish they made more in white or/and goldtone solids to go with more outfits. I also wish they made more without the toe post. So many cute ones with the toe post but so many cannot wear the toe post. I love the leather ones the best.

I have tendonitis, and wear an orthotic in this shoe. Although many athletic shoes are orthotic-friendly, I have found this to be the most comfortable, and the price is quite reasonable.

Received my Orthaheel Walker and immediately tried them on. I have a high arch, and this shoe has the best arch support I've found. Wore them in the house 2-3 hours, and discovered that the bunionette on my right foot was seriously hurting. I have a doctor's appointment soon, and will see if anything can be done for the bunion and if not, I may return the shoe and request an 8 1/2 size to see if that will solve the problem. If it were just a shade wider, it would be perfect. So my ranking reflects not on the shoe as much as on my own foot. I also have arthritis so a comfortable shoe is important to me and helps with my balance.

This shoe is great. I first learned of this shoe when I purchased it from the specialty shop that made my custom orthotic. It fits in the shoe nicely, but the shoe is equally as comfortable without it. I have a bunion and the toe box on the wide is roomy. I liked the shoe so well I thought I would try and find it online and save some money. That is when I came across Zappos! The price was cheaper and they sold it in both the blue trim and the pink trim. I like that the shoe doesn't look like an orthopedic, old lady shoe. Okay, I am 58 and on my way to being and old lady myself, but... The delivery was fast, the product right on. I would recommend this shoe and recommend getting it from Zappos!

This shoe has helped with my heel pain. I walk for my job mostly on hard concrete and having a great pair of shoes is a necessity and these are a great pair of shoes.

After having a lengthy bout with plantar fasciitis, Orthaheel shoes are the only ones I wear. Since I got rid of the heel pain and started wearing these shoes, the pain has not returned.

I waitress two days a week and I suffered from bad arches for years. I had expensive orthotics in another pair of "brand" tennis shoes, but still my back was bad at the end of the day. I got a pair of Orthaheel flip flops from QVC and loved them, so I thought I would give these a try. My back does not hurt and my feet feel great! You need to get these! I got the wide width but could have stayed with the regular. These do not feel "cushy", they aren't supposed to so don't let that throw you off right away. Walk in them a few days in the house so your feet get used to the arch. You will love them!

These are absolutely great. I have dealt with plantar fasciitis twice and the only shoe I could find to aid me in walking was Crocs. I no longer have plantar fasciitis but I do turn my feet in and out when walking and these shoes keep me from doing that and really aid in less backaches. I wore these the first time and was on my feet for 3 hours with no issues. They're really great.

First Zappos customer service is the best! I have a pair of the Orthaheel Mary Janes and love them. It did take a while to get used to but now they are my shoe of choice. I ordered these for walking and found the fit completely different. I usually take a 6 wide but these felt a half size larger and just too wide for me. I talked with customer service at Zappos and they have arranged everything. High marks for Zappos customer service personnel!

This was a great find for my foot problem (2nd time PF). It has been aching for a year.. I tried this and that insole, including taping my foot. With this shoes, I don't need anything such as special insole or taping any more. My feet feel comfortable just slipping in for walking (45 min every morning), and wear same brand polka dot slippers inside house. This shoes has high arch (to me). I tried a Nike pair suggested for PF, but not high enough for my foot. This shoes has been great!

I have orthopedic issues due to severe osteoarthritis, and need footwear with solid support. Typically I have purchased New Balance products, and would insert my own prescription orthotics. Having encountered that New Balance discontinued the style I could wear, I turned to Orthaheel after seeing ads and catalog offers. I've had both hips replaced last year and had my right knee scoped 3 weeks ago. I have balance issues and considerable discomfort while healing, but find the Women's Orthaheel Walker to provide foot stability and solid support which I desperately need. If you have an over-pronation problem, I would highly recommend that you try this product. And, as always, Zappos is always the only place I go for quality service and fantastic customer care with all my footwear needs. Thank you for this opportunity to help other customers. I wish you all a light and happy step.

I have knee and hip pain and I tried these Walkers 3 years ago They are wonderful I just ordered 2 more pairs. In both colors since I never had a black pair. Excellent walkers.

Loved this shoe but the arch seems to be placed too near the heel. Also, I have a small bunion and the seam is placed directly over it. Felt very solid and comfortable other than that.

I stumbled on Orthaheel and am slowly replacing all my old shoes with theirs. I have chronic back and occasional knee problems and these shoes have made a huge difference in reducing flare-ups and pain. Wish I'd found them years ago.

I bought these because I have been trying to get in shape and walking on my treadmill. Usually by the end of my workout, about 30 minutes was all I could handle. My Plantar fasciitis would be killing me. I bought these after I had already tried their flip flops, which were also great. The very first time I wore them for my workout I was able to do 40 minutes, and my feet still didn't hurt. I can't say enough good things about them.

My feet, esp ankles and arches feel good in these shoes. On my feet for several hours at a time at a pet stylist. Shoes provide good support and are lightweight and flexible. Fits accurate to sizing. Planning on getting them in black next.

These shoes are comfortable and really help me walk properly. I had knee replacement surgery about a year ago. I had to throw out most of my shoes because they no longer fit properly. I have tried several brands of shoes, but none come close to this Orthaheel Walker.

First Orthaheel shoe I purchased! Made huge difference in heel pain caused by fallen arches (Pes planus) - which causes plantar fasciitis. They hurt at first, but give it time. I now have the slippers, clogs, and 2 pair of their inserts. Plantar fasciitis is much better.

Great shoes! I have a lot of heel pain from incline on treadmill. Wearing these on the treadmill, I feel no pain while working out.

This is my second pair of these walkers. My feet do not burn, or hurt wearing these shoes... My lower back used to hurt after I walked. No more I know it is these shoes.

I've only worn them a few times, but think they may be helping ease my foot discomfort. The brochure says to wear them for a few hours a day at first, and I'm still at that point. Zappos delivery and return policy rocks!

I have flat feet and have been searching for a shoe to wear for long days on my feet that helps me avoid ankle and foot pain. Thanks to Zappos and their ease of return, I was able to try several pairs, keeping this pair as the most comfortable of all. I did order a half size larger since my usual size was not available. I nearly kept them, but then I received the email saying my size was in. That pair fit much better so I returned the larger pair. I had never tried Orthaheel before, and cannot find them in local stores, so I am very happy that Zappos carries them.

Great walker! I ordered a 10 1/2 wide - fits perfectly. The arch support is very good and I would highly recommend this shoe!
