These fit half a size smaller. I ordered my husband a size 10 as that is his normal size, they looked half a size smaller, so I am ordering him an 11 to compare the two. The arch is substantial, very noticeable, and very supportive. I have a pair and told him they feel weird at first but after a few minutes of walking you do not notice the pronounced arch. I love mine!

Oh I wish they made these in Wide. Even in flip flops, one width does not fit all! I loved the feel of the arch support, but my feet (women's size 11 wide) hung over the outside edge a lot! Straps were on the loose side, so possibly even in a wide, these might not have given the secure support I need for my plantar fasciitis. I sure want some flip flops, though!

This is the best sandal/flip-flop I've yet found that adequately eases my PF pain *(second only to Birkenstocks). Runs true to size, but a little narrow.

For ladies shoes, these are homely as sin, but they do the trick for a pair of house sandals, and relieve my back pain when I'm doing chores around the house. The top strap is a little bit looser than I would care for, but it's not too much a problem.

These sandals provide the arch support I need. I ordered the model with the adjustable strap, but on the two I tried, there was a rough edge on the sewing linking the fabrics which make the strap. A pair I bought years ago did not do this. I still use them for outdoors. I ordered this pair without the adjustable strap. There is still a bit of a rough edge on the sewing of the strap but not like the other model. Fit is great.

I just unboxed these & immediately felt the superior arch support. I've suffered from pf for years, due to so much time on my feet at work & these sandals are a great relief. The only downside is the toe strap which I assume will fine after I break them in. All in all it is a very comfortable sandals which I would highly recommend.

Shoes were fine. Ordered black and received white...hmmmm. They are headed back, just hope I receive the correct color before vacation.

I ordered 3 pairs of Vionic sandals- the mojave, the wave and the floriana. I especially like the adjustable strap over the instep of the mojave because I have a low volume foot and sandals without adjustable straps are often loose on me. However, there are ridges on the insole of the mojave that pinch the bottom of my feet as I walk! The floriana fit me the best, are the prettiest and have the nicest soft surface on the insole but the straps were a bit narrow with sharp edges and cut into my feet a bit. I ended up keeping the wave, the most basic and least pretty but most functional. All of them have fantastic shaped insole with perfect arch support for my feet.

I wanted to love this shoe as I have several other Orthaheel flip flops. But, I had trouble keeping it on my foot and felt like I needed a back strap or something when walking. Perhaps wider strap would make it feel more secure.

These had really nice arch support and looked great. Unfortunately there was too much vertical space for me in the foot bed. I tried a smaller size but same thing. They just didn't fit snug enough for a sandal.

The straps are too long, there is a significant gap between the strap and the top of my foot.

Returning these because the straps are too loose. the shoe bed is really great and very comfortable for my high arches, but the shoes just fly off my feet because the straps are too loose. I'm very surprised, this never happens to me, I have very high arches which means the top of my foot is also high, I sometimes can't get my foot into boots because of this, so straps are always tight on my with flip flops. Definitely a design flaw.

Since they are unisex they aren't tight enough for me. Also they seem too hard. Not enough padding.

I bought these for my husband who needed some "indoor" shoes, as barefoot wasn't giving him enough support. They are good looking, give great support, but the cloth tab between the big toe and second toe bothered him, so we sent them back. I have many pairs of Vionics with the same cloth tab, and I love them.

I wanted so much to like these sandals. The fit was fine with the exception of the straps. Unlike my older Vionic Wave sandals, these straps are made for fat feet, which fortunately I don't have!

The toe post material has stiff material that irritates my toes.

The band was to big for my foot, so it was sent back. However, the return was not difficult.

I've owned five pair of these sandals over the years. The original manufacturer included adjustable foot straps, but all subsequent sandals after the company merge did not. As you can read in many reviews, the straps are just too loose. Another issue is that although the uppers and the soles hold up beautifully, on every pair the bonding of the upper and sole has separated. I don't understand why they haven't resolved this major issue with a better, longer lasting bond. I've spent enough money on Shoe Goo to have purchased another pair.

I ordered a half-size down from normal and it is slightly too long and much too loose. It flops around on the foot so much I would have to curl my toes to keep it on! It doesn't help that the footbed is heavy I think. Ladies, order a size down and it might work well. Nice width and support and seems like it would be very comfortable if a little more snug.

I loved the color and the arch support. However, the overall weight of the shoe was too heavy for me. I felt that with each step the shoes were swinging and dangling from my feet.

I ended up returning these, the straps were far too loose, they slipped off my feet when I walked and lifted my foot for another step. Otherwise, I liked them fine. The straps are looser brand new than my worn out Reefs and my ancient Montrail flip flops.

Top straps were way too loose. They probably would fit a mans foot much better as these sandals are unisex.

While the length and width of these were good, the straps were too loose on my feet. There was no way to walk without these flapping all over the place. The straps seem like they were designed for "meaty" feet, not feet normal in scale.

This sandal is a very heavy, well-made sandal -- probably best suited to men....it was a little too wide, heavy and clunky feeling for me.
