Customer Reviews VIONIC Walker

I was having a problem with plantar fasciitis and these shoes were perfect! I was able to walk and start exercising again without pain! Excellent arch support!

I bought these in a size 9 for my daughter & very busy mother of 4 boys who told me that she could hardly walk much less exercise because of her plantar fasciitis. After a few days of getting used to them she found that she was putting them on-first thing in the morning...that's when she ordered the Orthaheel slippers. She says thanks to her Orthaheels she is now able to walk and exercise without pain. Now for me, after exercising less because of heel pain, I realized I had to check out the Orthaheel walkers for myself. I ordered them in a six which fit perfect and am also back on the treadmill pain-free! Thank you Zappos for your consistent prompt & courteous service which brings my convenient free shipping & return shopping to my home!

While working on concrete surfaces I noticed that my tennis shoes gave much better support, with less after hours pain, than oxfords or heels. Unfortunately white or gaudy athletic shoes do not meet professional workplace standards. These all black Orthaheel Walkers are the best of both worlds - they pass muster when worn with black slacks and they are exceptionally comfortable. I took them to the gym and spent 45 minutes on the treadmill. (I left the tags on, just in case that marvelous arch support morphed into an iron bar under my instep.) I'm very happy to report that my feet felt just as well after my run as before. I ordered 3 different pairs of black athletic shoes from Zappos. I will return 2 of them, but I'm keeping these Orthaheels.

I have been wearing New Balance sneakers, the 926 and 927, for a while but I did not like the 928 at all so I started looking for new sneakers and decided to try these. These are the most comfortable sneakers that I have ever worn. I have worn these to Disney World three times now and I cannot believe what a difference they make. They are comfortable walking around all day and my feet do not bother me afterwards either. I normally wear an 8W. That is what I ordered these in and they fit perfectly.

I love this shoe. I have a large foot (size 10) and have had plantar fasciitis for 2 years. This is my second pair of this identical shoe. It looks good and feels great to wear. It also is very durable. I did not need to purchase another pair, I just wanted another one on hand to wear with my "nice" jeans. I highly recommend this shoe.

Love these shoes. I am on my feet a lot for two jobs. These let me go home with my feet feeling just as good as they did when I started my day. Don't even need my good feet arches in them. Will be looking for a pair of mary janes next.

When I ordered these shoes, I had no expectations. When I put them on and wore them through out the day, I was stunned! I had almost no knee pain, I stood to teach most of the day without discomfort. All I can say is this "negative heel" formula works. The only problem with this brand is they one style in wide width. I wonder if they realize how much business they are loosing!

Wow! After a long bout with plantar fasciitis, I put these shoes on and could walk without pain! The support and heel cushioning is superior to any other product on the market. I have spent so much money trying to find the perfect shoe - and Orthaheel is it. I was so impressed that I ordered another pair of shoes and slippers which are equally comfortable. Orthaheel is now the only brand of shoes I will buy!

I bought my first pair of Orthaheel walker shoes in size 10 which pinched a little on one foot. I just got the same shoes in black, but in 10½ and they fit perfectly. With these shoes, stretching exercises and a shot in each heel, the bone spur pain is gone!

I wish I had bought a size 7. I bought 2 pair of Orthaheel slippers size 5 which fit perfect. I bought the size 6.5 in the Orthaheel Walker.

I first tried Orthaheels last summer as a sandal. In the Fall, i moved on to a closed toe model. Despite warnings to take time to get used to them, I never hesitated to order the shoes online and found they fit wonderfully.

Very comfortable. Fit true to size. I have had plantar fascia several years and Orthaheel only shoe I can wear all day.

Love these shoes. After 4 surgeries to the same foot it is hard to say that any shoe is comfortable, but these are. The fact that they come in Wide sizes makes them that much better. I plan to order a second pair!

I loved the first pair of these shoes, so I ordered the second pair as my first were getting worn. These were significantly shorter! My toes hit the top and when I put them side by side, you could see the difference! I will try the next size up, but I had taken the new pair out of the box into a suitcase to use and I could not when I arrived at my vacation spot.

I normally wear an orthotic arch support in my tennis shoes because so many shoes now do not have much support. When I put these on, I immediately found that I didn't need to wear my normal orthotic inserts at all. I've worn them for over a month and they're great! I found I've had less lower back pain after wearing them than my last pair of shoes (different brand) and I plan on purchasing more shoes from Orthaheel in the future. They are comfortable, fit my heel well, and there is enough room in the toebox that my toes don't rub the end when I walk/run, but not so much space either. Only a day or two to get used to the feel of it. It's wonderful!

These shoes are amazing! I've been suffering with foot problems for quite a while and no recommended shoes helped. I tried these and me and my feet are very happy.

I love these shoes! I have heel spurs and lots of problems with my feet. I work on concrete floors and by the time I get off work everyday my feet and legs are killing me. But just wearing these new shoes one day and I could really tell a difference! Best shoes ever! So glad I found them and I am going to try the house shoes in this brand and of course I will need another pair of the tennis shoes for home too! I have had mine for 4 days and they really work!

I've struggled with Plantar Fasciitis for years and these shoes are the best I've ever found! I love them so much I ordered a pair for my daughter. Great shoes

Great fit! At the end of the day, my toes do not feel like someone has been pinching them together all day. The arch is awesome. No tired feet after my workout.

This is my second pair of walkers and I have found them to be a godsend. I am basically pain free of heel pain now thanks to these shoes, some massage and use of a resting night splint for 3 months last year. If you suffer from heel pain, need extra heel and ankle support and excellent arch support, these are the shoes for you.

Love this product! This is my 3rd pair of Orthaheel. I have dress shoes, slippers, and now walking shoes, very light weight yet firm support. Plenty of arch support and ankle support. Everyone should try these, no more foot pain!

I wanted to have some black walking shoes for travel and ordered these. They look a little old lady but not really, and they feel really good! I ordered a wide, and they work well with my bunions. There is no rubbing!

I love these shoes. I spent the entire day walking and thanks to these shoes I had no tired feet and no back pain. I am in love with Orthaheel

I bought these sneakers after nearly a year of excruciating pain from plantar fasciitis. After multiple podiatrist visits and all kinds of "contraptions" I still had no relief and could barely walk. Then I got these sneakers. They were very comfortable and supportive from the first time I put them on. Within 2 weeks I was almost pain-free! I would highly recommend this product.

The Orthaheel walker is very comfortable. It provides the extra support and cushioning I need. I bought the wide and it is very roomy. I think maybe the regular size with average width might have been ok. If I try a medium width tennis shoe my toes are crammed. The toe box is wide in this style. I also liked that the style looks like a regular tennis shoe. I would like it if more colors were available. Most orthopedic or special shoes look like a waitress shoe. This one does not.
