I wish I could send this shoe back and get a credit I've never worn them but inside my carpeted house I had to take this off in about 20 minutes and I've never worn them again. The thong that fit in between the great and second toe was very uncomfortable to the point of pain. I think I will call customer service to see if they can help me out because I have wasted money on a shoe I can not wear.

Need I say more. These shoes are so uncomfortable. My feet hurt all day while wearing them. Glad I only bought 1 pair. Not ever worth spending $ on.

These shoes were well made but not as described. I ordered the White Flowered Tide II, which on the site has a colorful thong of yellow, blue, red, white, etc. The shoes I received were mainly red with a white background. There was a small piece that had some blue, on the inside of the strap but none of the other colors as shown on the site. When I phoned Zappos to ask about this, the customer service person told me that it is how they are cut. The material is cut out of a long piece of material so they can't promise that the next pair they send won't be mostly blue. Weird but that is what I was told.

I purchased a pair of the black Tide II Post Sandals two years ago. I loved them! They provided excellent arch support and the fit was great. Last year I ordered a pair in tortoise and a pair in cork. I was disappointed that the footbed was stiff and had less cushion so I returned them. Two weeks ago I ordered a pair in black hoping these would have the same fit as my original pair. I was disappointed that the black pair were the same as the other colors. They weren't comfortable and didn't fit well. The straps are looser and I don't think they will stay on so they will be returned. I don't know if this is a quality control issue or where they are manufactured. The Tide II Post Sandal are definitely not the same quality and fit as they used to be in any of the colors. I won't be ordering these again.

I have been wearing Vionic (used to be Orthaheel) shoes for many years. I basically live in my flip flops. I ordered a new pair as my current ones are getting worn. I was breaking them in while in my house. After wearing them off and on for about 2 hours I developed an instant case of plantar fasciitis. I think this current version is too hard on the bottom and the arch support seems higher and very hard on my foot. I hope loyal wearers don't experience this as I have.

I bought these online via this website. The heel cup was high on the outer heel - throwing my foot towards the arch. Caused my ankle & knees to get sore. I returned them - thinking it was just the design of the shoe A local store carries Vionic sandals. When I tried the same sandal in my local store -- the heel cup was fine & was not raised on the outer heel. So I'm figuring that the sandals I bought on this website were defective. Buyer beware. I will always buy thru an actual store where I can try them on before buying them.

This sandal is not what Vionic makes out it to be. The platform sandal is so much better. Very disappointed.

I love Vionic sandals and was excited to try these in a basic flip flop. They are advertised as fitting medium/wide feet and do not come in a wide option. These were definitely medium width only. The Vionic shoes that come in wide width fit me perfectly and I felt like I had to stuff my feet into these flip flops. Vionic- please made a true wide width flip flop!

The sole of this shoe is very hard and not comfortable. The arch support is high but again it is hard. Not a comfortable shoe. I prefer a cushioned sole. They are a nice looking shoe.

I wish I could attach a photo BUT NO I can't. The toe beds on 2 different pairs (all 4 sandals) became discolored. It is permanent. There seems to be no possible fix. I would expect more at this price point! I would NOT recommend these due to the discolored toe bed. It is VERY obvious. I don't wear them in public any longer.

I bought these on vacation in Cocoa Beach FL. When I got home and started to wear them there is a sharp edge in the loop that makes the toe post that caused blisters on both feet. Tried to cushion it but did not help. Sigh...

Unfortunately these sandals have too much arch support so that I cannot really wear them.

I have a very high arch and cannot wear flip flops that are flat. My sister swears by Vionic so while visiting her in Florida I bought a pair of these. There is something in the toe post where it meets the strap that makes it next to unwearable. i have tried to cushion it but it is not helping. A little upset because these are a little pricey but I am always willing to spend more for the comfort

Not good for a narrow foot. Way too wide and strap too loose for my thin narrow foot

I am very disappointed in the way they feel on my feet. They actually were very tight across the width. The bottom of my feet hurt. I just purchased two pair and I barely can wear them.

So disappointed with tide2. The original tide flip flops I owned almost all the colors and were my only summer shoe! Loved them! But then they changed the design. Wish I would have taken pics of the difference in size but it was huge! I tend to wear 7.5. The original size 7 was perfect! Couple years ago when my favorite colors needed to be replaced I ordered size 7 in the new tide2. Way too small. Compared the tide and tide2 and about an inch+ difference! Super annoyed so ordered the size 8 and way too big! Ended up keeping the size 8 and was miserable all summer. Too big and felt very different. So now heading into summer again, I’m tossing them and trying something new! Just got the keen flip flops in size 7.5 and fit perfect. They line up equal to the original tides which I have two colors left! So ordering a couple pairs of keens. I def prefer the feel of the original tide flip flops but fingers crossed with my new keens!
I'd also recommend:
Keens and Merrells.

I thought my feet had changed, but after reading the previous three comments, I realized the construction of the shoe has changed from the Vionics I purchased last year. The company needs to reassess this matter. All Vionics I previously purchased were wonderful with a great arch support -- these not so much; additionally, the straps don't touch the top of my feet.
The company needs to reassess this matter and then inform its customers when they change back to what was working for a lot of us so we will know when to start ordering Vionics again.
As the old saying goes, "If it's not broken, DON'T 'fix' it."
I'd also recommend:
My doctor recommended Vionics; will check w/him.

I wear vionic flip flops/sandals year round but this website needs to carry more choices and colors. I do not prefer to purchase my shoes from a shopping network but a lot of items sold on the network are NOT available on any other sites. I don't think for a customer that is willing to pay full price for the shoes this is a fair way of doing business. I returned the shoe above because the leather is too shiny. I prefer the matt look and the designs in a matt finish not glossy. I do not have plans to purchase any other vionic products next year. I like the support but I can find that in a brand that offers ALL products to everyone not just through a home shopping option. Hopefully someone will pay attention to this post and bring more options to this site and in store.

I have to send these back. I wore them one day and they tore up my feet.......bleeding. The Med/Wide is not sufficient. So sorry you no longer make the wides. I wore Orthaheel/Vionics for over a decade and loved them. Will have to change to Men's to get the width (hopefully?). No More Pretty feminine colors for me I guess. Disappointed.

I've tried multiple pair of the Tide II. They are no comparison to the original 24 Tide that have the Orthaheel label on the sole of the shoe. Please bring back the original 24 Tide for women. I noticed that you still make it for men. And I've even tried ordering a man's but the width is way too wide. I have owned multiple pair of the original Tide and I am now lost without them! Is there anyway the company could reconsider making the original shoe? Based on my Internet search there are many people in desperate situations that feel the same way. I feel like I'm begging and that's because I am. That's how much the shoe means to me! Please please please bring back the original Tide for women!

Bought these sandals because I was suffering from horrible planter's fasciitis and super disappointed when they arrived. While they have good arch support they are super hard and uncomfortable and the material makes your feet sweat. DO NOT BUY THIS BRAND!!! You are better off buying Reef's or Olukai flip flops.

Not the same as the Vionics I have purchased in the past. They have a shorter and narrower footbed which changes how the sandal fits the foot. Extremely disappointed, used to be my go to flip-flop. No longer ;-( Both pairs are going back...

loved these sandals but bottom came off halfway within the first month. Will not buy Vionics again. Thank goodness Zappos has such a sweet refund/return policy.
