Customer Reviews VIONIC Mojave Vionic™ Sport Recovery Toepost Sandal

I love these sandals. They look sporty, like Chacos or Tevas, but with lots of arch support. The straps help the sandal stay in place, not sliding around like a flip flop. When I first wore them, something was wrong with the toe strap on the right shoe. It was either too tight or hit my toe at the wrong spot because it actually made my toe go numb. I sent that pair back and switched it with a different set. Thank goodness I did because the second pair fit perfectly. Go figure.

These are so comfortable. I wear them around the house like slippers as well as outside. They are not very attractive, in my opinion, but well worth getting for the comfort alone.

This Vionic is not the same as the other sandals in the Vionic line. The heel cup is not as deep, and there is less cushion in the heel area on the circular pad. The toe band can keep your foot from getting as far forward in the sandal as you would like, which in turn can make the sandal less accommodating to the length of your foot. Excellent shoe, but just not the same level of confront as the other Vionics.

Extremely comfortable, great support. I can walk all day in these! I was disappointed that the toe strap on one of the shoes broke after wearing these only a few times, though. I still wear the shoes, but one does not have the toe strap.

This is one of the most comfortable and supportive footbeds I have ever experienced. I have very high arches and this sandal would have been perfect. However, I also have very thin feet. Pulling the strap tight enough to keep the sandal on my foot caused the strap to dangle two inches on the ground, plus it only had a few rows of velcro loops left to keep it attached. But since the shoe was so comfortable, I may order the next size smaller.

First: I followed Orthaheel's suggestion for all of its sandals - I gave myself two weeks to get used to wearing them. As suggested, I gradually increased my wearing time. Take this into account as you read my review: Othaheel Mojave: very comfortable. I wondered about the comfort of toe post - it is no problem after a little wear. I also wondered about the synthetic straps - but they're comfortable and look great. These sandals look good on my feet - I have flat feet & most other sandals look funny on my feet (and most others don't give the great support that these do). I took one star off my rating because the upper foot bed material could be sturdier for a sport sandal. It gets nicked pretty easily. But they're so comfortable and good looking I bought a second pair anyway. I would like to see the same sandal with a back strap - and how about some Orthaheel gardening clogs? Fit of straps: The straps work for my B width feet. I think they'd work for people with wider feet and higher arches because the straps are generous. Narrower feet may end up with some excess strap but hey - give a try. Zappos has free shipping, free returns and great service, too.

Great look, have received many positive comments. Bought these due to my plantar fascitis. They worked well first few times I wore them, but after only a couple of weeks of being worn in, my foot has returned to pronating and having pain. Once straps stretched a little, arch support, pronation support began to fail.

These sandals have allowed me to stand and walk for longer periods without experiencing the nagging pain of plantar fasciitis. I have a long, narrow foot and the front straps are not adjustable, so my foot drifts a little. And, as another reviewer noted, the adjustable ankle velcro strap touches the floor when cinched on a narrow foot. Overall, though, these are worth the high price. The footbed is an unusual combination of firm and flexible and the shoe is not heavy, like a Chaco. They run maybe a half size too large.

These are sporty, comfortable sandals with great arch support. I had to return them because when I wore them around the house, the toe strap left redness and I dropped a star off for comfort due to that. I worked at getting used to it, but I could not do that. Maybe with enough time they would have softened up, though. I was really sad because except for that, they were very comfortable, even for my wide, flat feet in desperate need of arch support. I usually wear a 9½-10 wide and I ordered a 10.

These shoes have excellent arch support if that is an issue for you. However, the foot bed of these shoes had sharp pieces that poked my feet, especially in the arch area. I ordered three pair in different colors and each was the same. Kind of like having small gravel in your shoe. I loved the look of the shoe, but could not tolerate this defect. Also, the trap that goes across your foot was very loose initially. I was able to tighten it, but then it hung off the side of the shoe and would drag on the ground.

The best thing about this sandal is the extra cushioning as compared to the other Vionic styles. Wearing Vionic has stopped the pain in my feet and ankles, but not my arthritic knees. Please add more cushion to some more of your styles! These sandals would have been quite comfortable if not for the straps. I wore them for about four hours in the house, and have big red indentations on the outside base of my big toes. And the straps were not tight, I don't have a wide foot, etc. If I wear these regularly, I will end up with blisters. I am so disappointed. For the price, I would expect a more comfortable strap.

This is my second pair of these, I loved the first, but the toe post in these is so stiff it hurts my feet. I had to return

Wanted to love these, but instep stap on one was at a different angle than the other. Great footbed, firm and supportive. Straps ARE stiff and stretch out to too big. Still wear them because I spent a lot. Upper needs redesign.

These shoes look good and fit perfectly! I especially like the adjustable strap over the instep because I have a low volume foot and sandals without adjustable straps are often loose on me. However, there are ridges on the insole of the shoe that pinch the bottom of my feet as I walk! I did not see anyone else mention this in the reviews but it was a deal breaker for me. I ordered 3 pairs of Vionic sandals - the mojave, the wave and the floriana. The floriana fit me the best, are the prettiest and have the nicest soft surface on the insole but the straps were a bit narrow with sharp edges and cut into my feet a bit. I ended up keeping the wave, the most basic and least pretty but most functional. All of them have fantastic shaped insole with perfect arch support for my feet.

I think I would have liked these if they had fit. But, these are not for WW sizes or high insteps. The straps across the top of the toe are not stretchy and don't adjust. I could barely get my foot into them. Also, I was hoping that since many people say that Vionic shoes run wide that these would fit my WW feet. But they are about a 1/4 too narrow across the toe. Also, the color is much darker than what shows on my computer...the gray is a very dark charcoal and the pink is more the color of raspberries. Nice shoe. Just not for me. I ordered 2 other pairs of Vionic shoes and they are not wide enough either, even in a W width. Please, Vionic - make WW shoes!

I ordered these in berry/charcoal and since I have several Orthaheel shoes but different size depending on model I got two sizes. The smaller size was super tight across my toes, except the toe loop which was huge and sticks up and ribs against my other toe. The larger size were better by the toes but in order to get the adjustable strap tight enough it was going against the floor when walking and I could hear the velcro moving. They did not have the same feel with walking either with the sole like my other flip flop style sandals. Unfortunately they are both going back. I really liked the style of them and the color. I did notice that one pair was lighter gray they the other were, but both still looked good.

Not for a narrow foot. I love this brand, but the style didn't work for me. Only one of the straps was adjustable. As a result, I couldn't make the other straps fit my foot. I would have tried a smaller size, but it was out of stock. I not sure whether they would have been better, or not. This isn't the first style of Vionic that I couldn't wear because it was too wide. I hope that they take into account that some women with foot issues or who want a comfortable shoe need a narrower width.

Really needed new sandals, and really wanted to love these. Returned first pair because one toe strap was larger than the other. Amazingly, received replacement pair next day! (Love Zappos!). Second pair a disappointment as well. Straps across instep are spaced differently in distance and slant in each sandal. Also, second pair were not in factory-sealed condition so I am wondering if they had already been returned by someone.

I don't get the hype. These shoes felt hard and plastic, and the straps were rough. I could only stand them for a few minutes. The arch support was great though!

The strap that comes diagonally across the top is too short. It actually pulls up the tip of the shoe by the big toe and pulls your foot back so it feels like you are walking on the side of your foot. My feet tend to be more swollen on top and around the big toe area so the diagonal strap was not long enough for me and it is not adjustable. I have arthritis in the joint of my big toes and the toe loop pulled my toe towards the inside of the shoe/foot which irritated my arthritis. I did however love the style, they just need to add a little extra length to the cross strap. I ordered the purple Tide II and the arch support is not as significant in these as the Tide II. The arch support in this shoe is good,but not as significant as the Tide II. I wear 10½ and sized down half a size as recommended and they were perfect. The width was good, too. I think that I have somewhat wider feet and these were great as far as width.

I'm returning these because they look too orthopedic. The sole is pretty wide and a bland grey color that reminds me of nursing shoes. They do feel comfortable, with a high arch and lots of cushioning, but they're too ugly.

I now have 5 pairs of Orthaheel shoes which in the past I have loved. However, since the Vionic name went on this brand, the insoles are made of synthetic material which burns and irritates the soles of my feet terrible. This pair is the worst! They are cute sandals with a good fit, but after having them on for about 20 minutes, my feet start burning. It is impossible to wear them for a full day. Quite a disappointment.

Love the look of these...but too tight across the lower part of foot. Wish it had an adjustable strap like the top one. I had so much hope for these shoes!
