Customer Reviews VIONIC Julie II

I own the Julie II Vionic sandal in white and pewter. When I wear them, I get so many compliments on them. I tell folks "Thank you, but it's what you don't see that makes them so wonderful. Great arch support!" Thinking of getting them in black. I also own a number of other Vionic or Orthaheel sandals along with the "sneakers" that I wear every day to the gym. You can't pry my feet out of them. Waiting for Vionic golf shoes!

I have plantar fasciitis, so I am becoming an expert on shoes with great arch support. I bought a pair of these Orthaheel Julie shoes in black last year, and I cannot stress how comfortable, easy to wear and actually cute these shoes are. I could walk miles in them, and I get compliments on them all the time. I took them on a trip to Haiti and realized I had lost one when I got back. You really have to love a pair of shoes to order another one to replace them! I ordered the bronze this year and love the way they look. The black ones are very definitely patent (read: shiny)with shiny silver accents. These are more muted...almost look brown (which I like) and the accents are almost the same color. (the accents don't stand out as much as the ones on the black shoes). I hope Vionic will do more sandals with the same general design. I wear an 8 1/2 and, as always, I order down a size to an 8 with Orthaheel. Try them!

I brought these on my recent vacation in France. They are perfect for lightweight travel, fashionable, and comfortable sandals. I definitely could not walk in them all day, but they were perfect to change into for going out to dinner in Paris, and also for walking around small towns in the South of France. I could walk about 3 miles in them.

These sandals are a life saver, and really cute, to boot! I have them in three colors, they are so awesome. After two failed Morton's neuroma surgeries, and plantar fasciitis on one foot, these are the only thing I can wear! Thank you for this technology, which has freed me from pain. I am really hoping for boots for the fall!

These are the best of both worlds - cute shoes that are comfortable. This is my second pair of Vionics and I would highly recommend them.

I just spent the day walking around LA in these shoes and I am floored. They are super-comfortable. The arch support is outstanding. The style is cute (I wore them with a maxi dress today and linen crops yesterday and they looked great with both). The strap between the toes doesn't bother me at all. I was skeptical because I have "cankles" and didn't think the strap would do anything for me but I was wrong. They make my legs look great. I love these shoes and would try another style in a heartbeat.

I have a narrow and thin foot with severe pronation, and most orthaheel shoes don't work for me. But this line, and this shoe in particular, has been wonderful! Since a major spine injury, I've had a hard time walking, and absolutely need supportive orthotics. These are a good alternative to having to wear tennis shoes or other closed shoes. Now my feet can breathe during the summer! Please keep making shoes for those of us with narrow, thin feet!

I LOVE, love these sandals so much that I purchased them in black, platinum & bronze! These sandals are both cute & comfortable! I had major reconstructive surgery on my left foot because I had ruptured my posterior tibial tendon. I was in a boot for 3 & 1/2 months & when I started to walk without the boot I began my journey in these sandals. I have not experienced any pain while wearing these sandals & I can wear them all day. They truly position my foot correctly. I also receive so many compliments on them and people are amazed when I tell them that they are orthopedic.

These provide great support for plantar fasciitis. But like other reviewers, these seem to run a little narrow. I have narrow feet and they barely fit. I wish they had cork bottom shoes without texturing on the footbed.

I have these shoes in almost every color. Get so many compliments and they save my feet in the summer. Love them!

This sandal is awesome. I can wear them all day with no issues. I've had a lot of compliments on how attractive they are. Oh, and Zappos, you rock!

I purchased these sandals in the Silver color and they are so cute and comfy. I'm 29 years old, 5'6'' 140 lbs and have pretty average feet...I usually wear an 8, and the 8s that I purchased fit like a charm. They look really nice with a pair of casual mid-length shorts and a cute fitted t-shirt...but I've worn them with just about everything, including sun dresses. Will purchase another pair when these give.

I love the look and comfort of these casual sandals. I normally wear custom orthotic inserts in my sandals so it's great to find a stylish sandal with moderate arch supportive that I can wear for brief periods of time as an alternative to my orthotic sandals. The fit is great and I like the subtle touch of teal mixed in with the soft navy color.

I can't say enough about how comfortable these shoes are. I'm ordering another color! Not only do they help my plantars, but are supportive enough my lower back doesn't hurt after a long day on my feet.

This is my first pair of Vionic and I love them! I have a short, wide foot with a high instep and these are very comfortable. They are very pretty and don't look 'orthopedic' at all.

Very attractive sandals. I ordered an 8 but I needed a 7.5. The accentuated arch would take some getting used to, I had to return them as they did not fit my feet well, flopped around when I walked in them. I plan to try another style of Aetrex.

I bought the red/coral ones. The picture makes them look pinkish, which was what I wanted. However, they are a true "Christmas" red with a couple of coral flowers. Still cute, but not at all what the picture shows. I decided to keep them, because as t-strap sandals go these are so comfortable! I'll find another pair of pink sandals another time. :)

Loved these in red! So very cute; the flowers very detailed in color and accents. The fit was perfect. I usually wear 7 1/2; but I have seen the Orthaheel sales rep say, "always go up a size in our brand if you are a half size). So unless you are spot on a true 7; go to the 8. These are good for medium foot. To compare, I had purchased a slip on sandal that was from Orthaheel and it listed as "better for narrow"; I ignored, bought and of course gave them to my narrow footed niece. I put this red pair on day of opening; realized all was adjustable (including where buckle is on foot and T-strap) and went on to wear them all week. I thought about "blister block" to put between toe bar; but before I could finish that thought; no more discomfort. I walked a lot and they were fabulous. I would recommend to anyone with med foot. Lovely pretty comfy sandal!

Stylish comfort! I ordered these sandals for both casual and dressy wear. They go well with shorts but also dressy enough to wear with a dress or skirt. It took about a day's worth of walking to get used to the footbed and accentuated arch support.

I have had 3 surgeries on my left foot alone. I have to wear tennis shoes and orthotics every day. However, I was able to wear these shoes all day and my feet felt fine when I got home. The support is great. Most importantly, the shoes look great and I received many compliments on them. Definitely worth buying. I will be buying more of these shoes in the near future.

These shoes are extremely comfortable and they are adorable. I received many compliments from my friends on my "cute sandals" and when I told them they were arch support shoes, they were very surprised. These sandals do not look like orthopedic shoes at all. I purchased them for a vacation that quickly approaching and received them so quickly, I had time to break them in before our vacation yet they didn't need breaking in at all! They were comfortable from the moment I put them on.

I love these sandals. I wear a 7.5 - ordered down to a 7 and they fit fine. I am ordering them in every color. I do not have a narrow foot - my foot is quite fat and thick. They fit fine for me, so I wouldn't get too turned off if you have a wide-ish foot. I could see where they couldn't accommodate a super wide foot, but for just a W foot they fit fine for me.

I love these sandals. They are very comfortable. I am able to wear them all day without a problem! There is no break in period.
