Customer Reviews VIONIC Walker

I bought these for walking. Ok. I ALWAYS wear an 81/2 shoe. Sometimes an 8. This shoe runs short. I exchanged them for a nine. And they're...ok. thin socks will help

My feet are complicated so I require a wide roomy toe box snug ankle collar good depth in the mid-shoe area to accommodate a high instep yet strong arch support as my arches collapse (flexible flatfoot) and am currently battling a painful case of plantar fasciitis. This is the second pair of Vionic shoes I've purchased and immediately returned because though they are highly rated for those of us with foot issues so far they just haven't worked out for me. This particular model just did not have the toe box room I need plus didn't have a strong enough arch. I also wish the sole especially the forefront of the sole had more flexibility. I do think it was a nicely manufactured shoe and the color was indeed a lovely shade of mauve (almost a light plum). I wish they had worked for me.

I've been trying many sneakers to help relieve plantar fasciitis and was hoping these would work because I wear Vionic slippers and flip flops and love them. Unfortunately although these sneakers are really cushioned for comfort and have the arch support in the insole they're really big and bulky in overall size. Not just inside the shoe where there's too much space but the shoe itself is much bigger than any sneaker I've worn. If you have thick wide feet these will be great. Sadly had to return. Will keep trying other Vionic shoes though because the arch support is really great.

With shoes intended for exercising walking etc. I have always heard you need to get one size up to avoid toes hitting the ends. These are too small while walking down a slight hill my toes jam into the ends. They are comfortable if you are always on flat ground no inclines. If they came in a larger size I would try that out but unfortunately I have big feet!

I've had my shoes about 2 weeks now. I bought the wide because my toe area is wide. The only issue I have is the right toe box seems smaller than the left toe box (not much) but just enough to make my toes feel cramped. Maybe a QC issue ??? Otherwise they fit fine comfortable to walk in and when wearing the shoes my plantar faciatis disappears.

Ordered same size as my other sneakers but these cane a just to large had to return - need to find a store and try them on - -

I ordered the wide width and would have preferred they be a little more roomy. The shoes don't have the great arch support that the flip flop style sandals do. I kept the shoes because I love the style and the width & arch support are while not great they are adequate.

As usual a great shoe but not a summer walker - too much unbreathable leather - making the shoe too hot for summer

I am still trying these out they seem solid and comfortable but due to foot issues not sure they are helping just yet.

When I first put the shoes on you could feel the support. Right away the pain in the heels of my feet went away. After wearing them for a few days the pain came back. Either way they are a nice pair of shoes. They just didn't cure my problem.

The fit of this shoe was a bit too large. The real problem for me is that there is some piece of something in the upper that rubbed against the knuckle of my big toe in a really uncomfortable way and didn't go away with repeated wearings. I had to return them. It's too bad because they were otherwise comfortable.

These shoes are too stiff. After wearing them according to the instructions I found them to be very uncomfortable - it felt like the bottoms were made of concrete.
