I purchased these recently thinking they would be perfect. Unfortunately they are not. My feet slide to the right and often breaks through the velcro closures. Even when tightly closed. The bottom of the sandal has a curved edge to them and it makes me feel off balance.

I loved the Sandles. Felt good on my feet but the Velcro Straps wouldn't stay fastened in place. The forth day. The straps loosened so much that MY foot was slipping and they wound up causing a GREAT deal of pain in my feet. I only wear Vionic Tennis Shoes and they are awesome. Hopefully one day I can find a Vionic Sandles with BACK Straps THAT BUCKLE

Shoe was very pretty but stiff to walk in and the straps were rough

I really wanted to love this shoe! It looks stylish while being practical. However I'm completely dissatisfied. I cannot get this shoe to fit me properly to wear all day. If I could I would return it for a refund. It's sloppy. I was planning to wear this walking around Israel for a week. There is no way I can without running the risk of blisters.

I'm having a hard time understanding why these are suggested by podiatrists etc. if you refuse to make a shoe to fit a narrow foot no amount of Velcro will help! The ends of the Velcro straps stick out or drag the ground because they have to be pulled so tightly. People with narrow feet need shoes that fit and they are hard to find! I kept these shoes because I needed some sandals to wear for pete's sake but they do not fit well and aren't that comfortable. Instead of making a hundred pairs of flip flops that all look alike please make a few pairs of shoes/sandals for people with narrow feet!

Shoes not in my size (11.5) and I was glad I was advised to get an 11 rather than a 12. That length was fine. with My size shoe I seldom find pretty shoes that fit so was excited to see them. However the straps are not attached correctly and do not lie flat. Had to return.

I sent them back because some areas of the straps were scratchy.

Who makes velcro to keep sandals fastened? I bought these in two colors last summer and they were my only sandals that didn't irritate my plantar fascitis. A short three weeks into wearing them the velcro came off on both pair. I took them to a cobbler and he sewed the back strap shut which left me with just the top strap. I have ended up clipping them with BINDER CLIPS. It's ridiculous. What's wrong with buckles???

I bought these shoes a few months ago and they are falling apart. I love the comfort but expected better quality for the price. I bought the black sandals

Bought the cork amber bionic sandler's in June. Very comfy! I have plantar fascitis and these helped out. I don't wear then every day but the cork finish is starting to peel. I'm super bummed! I'm past the return date of 30 days but wish these had lasted more than a few months for the cost. :(

Comfortable shoe but disappointed with the quality of velcro straps. Velcro didn't hold up very well.

I have mixed feelings about these shoes. When I first got them, I really like the way they looked and felt. They hurt my arch just a bit the first few times I wore them, but then that went away. They got wet in a rainstorm and now the footbed smells terrible. I cannot get the odor out, though I've left them out to dry in the sun and in my garage. For the price of the shoe, I expect a lot more. Very disappointed and will not buy their shoes again if this is what they are like.

Sadly as much as I wanted these adjustable strap, cushioned intersole shoes...they made my feet smell, and felt sloppy.

The soles of these sandals are great – excellent arch support and the microfiber covering is very soft. And the sandals are cuter than expected. Unfortunately, the uppers are stiff plastic with sharp edges. So a major fail overall.

I have worn Vionic shoes for a number of years now, but I am so disappointed in the quality of craftsmanship now. So I am returning these. Very unhappy!

The shoe fit but I won't wear it. First, the arch support is good (as good as Alegria). But this shoe is not well made- the velcro did not extend to provide enough support for my medium width foot and I felt like it could come off or I would slide over the side of the shoe (not enough velcro). Part of this problem might be that it just looks flimsy to me. There is not much foot coverage so you better love your toes- ALL of your toes! The strap down the "center" was not down the center but was off center so I thought the look was strange- I read one review who said the took that strap off BUT then it would be even flimsier I think. I did not like the fit, the feel, or the look but I also am older, do not have gloriously beautiful toes ALL of which I want to show the whole length of (actually noone over 18 should show their toes, in my view) and my 68 year old friend who THINKS she has pretty toes is wrong. I'm sticking with Alegria and Dansko- much sturdier and equally good arch support.

Very pretty to look at, but very uncomfortable to wear. The wider width is hard to adjust with the velcro straps. Did not like them at all.

I was excited to see they still had this style IT ENDED. I don't know what they have done to this shoe but the sole is now hard hard hard and it has a strange turn in. So disappointed. Then I started to read review. I had bought this style in every color befor they got bought out in 2014 That explain it.So back they go.

Excellent fit, most comfortable sandals ever..however, the Velcro ripped off after a couple of months on two separate pairs.

I loved these shoes, but only had them less than four months and the velcro has completely detached from the strap. Cannot even wear them now. Too expensive for that!

I've had this shoe for a little over a year and loved it - until the velcro began pulling away from the strap that goes around my heel. I've tried sewing the velcro back onto the strap, but it is still trying to pull away.
Today I'm buying a different style Vionics sandal that has buckles instead of velcro.

I am recovering from an injury and I discovered that Vionic makes sandals I can wear. I have been limited to shoes that can accommodate my bulky custom orthotics, which meant no sandals for me. I have 3 pair of the Vionic flip flops, and I thought that AMBER would give me a little more support so I could walk longer distances. Sadly the AMBER styling is very disappointing. The black croc looks plastic-y and the velco straps make the shoes look inexpensive. The ends of the straps do not lie flat against the shoes - they look unfinished. Buckles would be so much better looking. Frankly, they look like "old lady shoes". All that said, I did not return them because they support my arches, are comfortable and I have no other options. With a little more effort in styling, these could be great. After receiving these, I looked for other Vionic styles, and while there are a few that look better, butthey not not come in size 12.

I originally purchased these sandals in a wide which were too wide. I guess these sandals are not cut for my foot because they are not comfortable. The medium width fit better but the straps cut into my feet. These Vionics are great because they have 4 adjustable straps so I hope you will have better luck than I did!!

These sandals are so wide and large that I could not tighten the heel strap tight enough to feel comfortable. I love the fact that this sandal has 4 adjustable straps, but tightening the 3 foot straps did not make improve the comfort. I am exchanging them for a medium with and crossing my fingers! Thanks Zappos for being the BEST company EVER!!!

I wanted so much to love these shoes, but they did not work for me. I have very flat (no arch) naturally wide (usually WW) feet, which makes shoe shopping difficult. I am happy to report that the W width should fit WW people nicely due to the wide base and adjustable straps. Design wise they are flawless. Ultimately the only reason I had to return them is because when I put my flat feet into them shoe with solid arch support, they made my feet hurt intolerably within a few minutes. They are not recommended for people with flat feet/no arch. They hurt my feet. But I imagine for those with arches or weak arches, these shoes will be a dream.
