Customer Reviews VIONIC Gemma

I had a pair of these slippers for two years and literal wore out the soles. Loved everything about them! Hate, and I mean hate these. Cheap material. Not as much arch support. Just cheaply made. What happened Vionic?

The fit and size of these slippers was fine, and the materials used seemed to be great quality. I gave them only 1 star because the arch was so high that it was painful. I gave the excellent rating on arch support only because that rating indicated that the arch support was way more than moderate. These slippers would be great for anyone with really high arches. I am returning these slippers.

Not comfortable at all. It's like walking on cement. I am not sure why it is so hard to find comfortable slippers.

WHAT A DISAPPOINTMENT! Vionic soles are to die for, so comfortable and supportive, but the construction is shoddy. First I bought a different style, fur with the blingy button accessory. Rhinestones started falling out the first day. Within weeks, the footbed (the material that your foot rests on) disintegrated. I returned them and ordered this style, hoping that maybe I just got a defective shoe. Nope, within TWO DAYS the footbed started peeling apart. This is a construction problem, and is likely related to the adhesive used to glue fabric to the sole. I really loved the comfort and support of the Vionic sole but I can't walk around the house with crumpled up wads of fabric in my shoe. So I'm back to wearing a 5 year old pair of cheap slippers that are still in one piece. Vionic, please fix the problem and let us know!

Poorly made! Great fit, very comfortable - until the lining on the footbed became unattached after about two wearings! I repaired the first one that came loose and thought that was that. Then after a week, the other one came unglued from the base and I ended up injuring the bottom of my foot on a rough spot (which is why I looked into the slipper in the first place. I am now wearing two cushioned pads on the bottom of my foot so I can walk without pain. Anyway, before wearing, please check the tightness of the glued down footbed lining and either reglue them yourself before wearing - or return them before you have worn them. Unfortunately, I no longer have the box and have worn them for a while, so I can't return them. Too bad, because if the quality had matched the other attributes, these would have been ideal slippers!

I am suffering from plantar fasciitis, have fallen arches, and overpronate. When I first started to wear these, I had immediate relief and thought I had found a miracle slipper! But after wearing these for a week, the top of my foot was in agony from the pulling the weight of the slipper. My thin feet are not used to this heavy of a shoe. The option to loosen the top with velcro did not help as it made the slipper too loose and slip off as I walked. In addition, the arch is very aggressive. This helped initially but ended up giving me huge painful swollen lumps in the middle of my arches on both feet! I stopped wearing them and the swelling went away after a day. I put them on a week later and the lumps started to form again. I would rather go barefoot than wear these, which is torture. So my search continues.

This is my second pair of Orthaheel slippers and I have to say that I am very disappointed in this pair. They are comfortable but have fallen apart after only 2 weeks! The lining has completely come off at the toes on both slippers and the rest of the slipper is leaving balls of fuzz over my clothes. I only wear them in the house so I was expecting to get a little more wear from them!

I found this slipper to be very uncomfortable and have several pair of Orthaheel shoes.

These are great slip-on slippers. Very good quality and nice and warm.

Perfect slipper, I now have ordered 3 paif

Fit and size excellent, very comfortable.

I love these for the comfort but the soles are hard and too noisy for around the house, which is what I got them for.

They are very comfortable but a bit warm for this time of year.

Love these. So comfortable and great arch support. Wash and line dry brings them back to new. Recommend highly and will. Uh again!

I wish they still made them. My favorite slippers. I've bought about 6 pair over the last few years.

The arch was too high for me.

Amazing arch support. Really helps me with my plantar fasciitis. Can walk around the house all day in these.

I gave these to my daughter as a gift and she's been wearing them nonstop.
