Customer Reviews VIONIC Tide II

I have really bad planter fasciitis and my podiatrist recommend this brand. Tried this shoe first and so glad I did! My feet are getting better and they don't even look like orthotic shoes! Great brand! After these worked so well I bought slippers, 2 other Vionic sandals and a pair of Vionic Mary Janes. All great and helping my feet!!!

I love this flip flop! I suffer with plantar fasciitis and love to wear flip flops all summer but suffer if I do because of the lack of arch support. These are fantastic. I can wear all day and not pay for it later. I also ordered a pair of Spenco's I will keep they are good but not as good as the Vionic. The vionic has better support for my arch and heel. I wore my normal size 7 in both.

I love these Vionic Orthaheel Technology Tide II! I have had Planter Fasciitis for a couple of months. I am very active, and have been crippled with this ailment. These shoes have felt great on my feet. I can really feel the difference when I put them on. They give me the support where I need it the most, in my arch. They look great, slip on and off easily. I suggest these shoes highly! For my workout shoes I use Powerstep Pinnacle Maxx inserts, and also Orthaheel inserts.

I loved the feel of these sandals even though they were too small. I sized down to an 8 ( I wear an 8 1/2) as suggested. I would like to reorder a 9 but I hesitate since I actually received the wrong sandal. The box was marked Tide II, which was what I wanted, but I received Tide with sequins. This is not the first time this has happened to me. The last time was with a Brighton bag. While I love Zappos and have ordered often, I feel that maybe someone should be more diligent in verifying the product in the box is the same as described on the box.

I am normally an 8 1/2 and an 8 fit perfectly. I have problem with planter fasciitis in my arch of right foot, these are like slippers, but have a dressier flair. Going to order another color! Thank you Orthaheel.

I absolutely love these flip flops! Last summer I was miserable with regular flip flops as I have planter fasciitis, with these, I don't wake up in pain after a day wearing them!

Love the shoe! It is so comfortable. The only negative. I have a narrow foot and they are a little wide for me. Perfection would have been a snugger fit.

I have an extremely high arch and these provide the support I need and look fantastic too!

These shoes are great! At first you think the arch is too high but that's exactly what your foot needs. I have four pair and have given a pair to my daughters and granddaughters to prevent or treat foot problems! I wish they made some with sparkles!

Wonderful sandal. True to size with firm high arch. I have Morton's neuroma and as soon as I put these on the tingling and pain stops. The arch support takes the pressure off the ball of my feet and I can walk in comfort. I have flat feet and these are excellent support. They look great and no one would suspect that they are an ortho shoe. Well made - I have had them about a month and they are holding up well.

Vionic brand has gone down in quality in general. The arch isn’t as firm. I use to get over 1 year use but now not as much.

I read the reviews about the shoe running small but I ordered the same size anyways because my old Vionic flip flops were plenty roomy. Unfortunately they do run small.

These shoes were very cute. However I'm returning them as I bought two different pairs (Vionic Casandra) to try and the others are a bit more comfortable. Both have fairly stiff (unpadded) soles which is good for Plantar fasciitis. However I think the heel cup in these aren't quite as deep. Though it has great arch support. The toe posts were also a little bit hard.

I liked these Vionic sandals a lot at first, and they gave me good support. I only wore them indoors, never outdoors. I purchased them June 10, 2020 but by September 10, 2020 in only 3 months they didn't offer much support at all. I am not overweight; in fact I am at the perfect weight for my height (5'2"). I don't know what happened but I will not buy Vionic sandals again.

Hi all. The shoe was good but too small. I followed the advice of many reviewers to size down since I wear 8.5 but it was too small. Just barely but did not leave much room at the heel or toe like most fit guides suggest. It could be that I’m at the high end of 8.5 but anyway. I ordered the 9 so we’ll see. I also wish it didn’t have the metallic finish but I appreciate it has that extra reinforcement as it seems to prevent the straps from stretching like Wave reviews mention.

These fit as expected. As indicated in the description, I'm a half-size and ordered down. While these are comfortable, they don't have the same excellent arch support of previous Tide flip flops. I ordered the "snake skin" and like the way they look. Just wish the arch support was better as in the past models. I'll keep and wear them - but would really love to have the older version with the really high arch support!

I like these flip flops a lot, I'm used to wearing the Vionic Beach and these are much more solid and have much better arch support. There's a few things with these, though, that I really wish were different. They're wide-I wish that Vionic at least made a narrow version of this shoe. I don't feel that the straps fit my foot snug/well enough, so when I'm walking I wind up gripping the shoe with my toes to avoid them sliding around under my foot. And the strap is rubbing against the top of my foot and it's becoming irritated. I've had them for about a week now and am only wearing them around the house and don't feel that I can venture out in these yet. But the arch support is helping my back and knees.

I've got plantar fasciitis in both of my feet (prominent pain in both my heels and my arches) and was recommended Vionic as a brand to try out. These flip flops looked nice and I wanted to love them, but the material of the sole was so hard that the arches felt like I literally was standing on two softballs--not great if part of your problem is arch pain and your arches are tender. For those seeking relief from heel pain, these are a good option to try as they have a heel cup and can provide both stability and support for the heel.

This shoe has good arch support for a flip flop. The problem I have is that the straps are too wide for my narrow foot and don't constrain my feel enough when I walk. I am going to go down a size to see if that works. Otherwise, this is an attractive and comfortable shoe.

This is my second pair. The first were actually orthoheel which were wider and felt different. Still keeping these but not as impressed as with the orthoheel.

I have a size 8 Tide II that I bought in June 2017. They are a great fit for overall size and width. Wide enough to be comfortabe but not loose, easily covers the length of the foot. All that said, I wanted another pair ina new color this year. They are not the same shoe! I got a size 8 again and this model is easily a size smaller and more of a narrow width than a medium width. I will be returning and sizing up and hope that a larger size will equal the fit of last years Tide II. Four stars because the design and support are good, one star because they messed with the fit.

As a longtime customer of Vionic, I am very disappointed and even grieved that they have decided to decrease the width of their shoes across the board. I have always been happy with the Tide I for my wide foot and sadly this Tide II new release is definitely more narrow. This is true for all of their other flip flop styles as well, all of which I tried and sent back. Vionic, please leave at least one option for your customer base with wide feet! Either make the Tide II in regular and wide or re release the Tide I in its original wide form. Or offer all your styles in regular and wide...and I"ll buy them all! Not sure why you would leave zero options for the portion of your market that has wide feet, the market that made you profitable!

Zapoos has great service and a great selection! In general, I love these shoes. I’ve worn them for years. I recently purchased 3 pairs and 2 of them had problems. One pair had a right shoe that was skewed so that it did not sit flat on the floor like the other one. The other pair had a right shoe in which the toe post pulled to one side. I also have had a quality problem with another model of Vionic sandals. They are so comfortable for me when they are made a bit better. I cringe at having to return so much, but that’s how we do things these days, I guess. I do hope Vionic can work out their quality issues.
