I am reviewing these slippers because the remarks about size are all over the map. So I ordered my regular size, which is an 8. They fit perfectly. A 7 would have been too short, a 9 would have been too long. What's more, my foot tends to run a bit narrow but there's a nifty velcro strap to adjust the fit across the top of the foot, so the width is perfect too! I wish there were as much arch support on these as there are on the Orthaheel flipflops, but in terms of fit, these are spot on.

I have been wearing Orthaheel shoes for the past two years. I love the way they feel and how much they help my hurting feet. The only drawback is that they are only good for about 3-4 months and then I find the support starts to go. For house slippers this gets to be an expensive habit. Wish I could find a discount for buying multiple pairs. Don't know what fabric they could use but surely there is something that doesn't wear out so quickly.

These are comfortable slippers with a great support for my plantar faciatis problem. Can't wait to wear them when it gets cooler.

I like the footbed but the upper doesn't flex when I walk so it hurts the top of my foot. Orthaheel needs to pay more attention to the entire shoe, not just the arch support. I normally wear an 8 1/2 so went down 1/2 size like they tell you to and they fit fine. Just disappointed with the fact that there is tight stitching in the upper even though it is adjustable it still is uncomfortable.

These slippers are comfy, but my heel slips on bit, as they have a thick bed in the back. I think this will get better as I wear them more.

I wear an 8...ordered an 8...and should have gotten a 7. They are comfortable, but the top of the shoe rubs the top of my foot. Sending these back for the sandal type.

The arch support took a couple days to get accustomed to, but afterwards, my feet felt great. My only issue is the pilling occurring in the fabric under the front of the foot. It's been less than a month, and I already feel the difference in the fabric. Not sure how it's going to feel (or look) like in a year, especially since they recommend you don't wash!

It takes a little getting used to. But they are very supportive. This brand has helped soothe the sudden ache in my arch that I had a month ago. The only thing is that it fits a little bigger than I'd want. I wonder if a size smaller would have been better to accommodate the eventual settling of the material.

I was excited to try the Gemma mule slipper. It looked really comfortable and had many positive reviews. I always wear a medium width in my shoes. I was surprised how wide the Gemma slipper was, even with the adjustable strap as tight as it could go. Sadly, I will be returning this slipper.

Loved the slippers but I have neuropathy. When my feet get too warm they burn really bad. I'm just not able to wear them.

The support is great! However, theres no padding in the heel. I have to wear extra padding when wearing these around the house.

These I love when wearing socks but barefoot they are too wide for my feet. The arch is not the greatest, so a little disappointing.
But overall a decent slipper.

I buy them because I need the support they have, however, After a few months, they look up dirty, and I don't want to have to buy a new pair every few months.

These slippers are very comfortable in the footbed, however they are VERY wide. I am a B (medium) width, though on the wide side for a B. I was unable to get them to adjust narrow enough for my foot to stay in the slipper.

No matter where I place the velcro strap, the portion over my instep cut into my instep. They felt odd. The other Vionic style with the quilted top and side button is more comfortable due to the extra soft padding over the instep. The arch support is wonderful, though.

I liked the idea of these and they were comfortable but they seemed very wide and sloppy on my size 8M feet. I was afraid with the material that they would stretch and fall off my feet so I sent them back. I need something that stays put going up and down stairs. The arch support was moderate and comfortable and the heel nice for PF but the fact that they were just too sloppy was a no for me. I also bought the same material in the other slip on style and found those also too wide and sloppy for me. They are adjustable but not tight enough if they stretch out.

I love the warmth of these slippers, but they fit fine initially but become loose after a few weeks. Also, the fabric tends to "shed".

I love the arch support , i wish they make some with regular foot bed that is NOT LINED WITH TERRY MATERIAL. because my foot slides with socks on which can be a fall risk for someone like me with balance issues .. would love some regular unlined mules ..

Purchased caressa slippers. Felt comfortable when first put them on. After a couple of wears around the house, wider, my foot falls on side when walking at times... Sorry to say I fell in them the support was not there. Be careful, do not recommend.

Vionid Gemma might have worked out if they did not run very wide.

I ordered the 9 which I wear for sandals. My foot is typical width. These fit like a 9 but feel roomy. The arch support is good until the top gets stretched out which happens fairly quickly with minimal wear. Then your foot slides around very easily moving the arch support out of position. For my purpose, the stretched shoe is dangerous to wear. They are adjustable but they continue to stretch out again. They are warm but not too warm. They are cute.

Despite the adjustable velcro strap, these were too wide for me and slip off my feet. They also did not provide sufficient support for my high arch.

MY search for the perfect fit slipper did not end with the Gemma. Its quite wide and the mule style just did not work for me. My foot slid forward and as a result made my big toe sore. I could not make it fit snug enough to hold my foot in place. Sadly I had to return them.
