The support was mostly there, but there was little cushion. The shoes looked pieced together with glue, as if they would come apart. Disappointed.

I tried the smaller size and my foot was too long, went with the next size up and it solved the length, but the width was an issue. Problem is they don't have half sizes. And they intermingle the same shoe for men and women sizes. I kept them because of the arch. Its got a better than average arch. Unfortunately the narrow size is not available and there is not much selection for good arch flip flops. But I would've liked a better fitting flip flop. I don't know if others will appreciate the firmer arch this provides, much less the non spongey sole. I am lookin for functionality. They aren't bad looking, I got the grey ones, but there are certainly better looking flip flops and softer ones.

I have a long narrow foot and this sandal is for a fat foot. The quality is excellent but won't work for me.

I really wanted to like these shoes. I had an older pair of SuperFeet flip flops that I lived in for years...when they finally died, I tried their newer styles and was unhappy with the lack of support. The lateral support, in particular, is problematic. They just don't feel very sturdy. I thought I'd try these Vionics, but found a similar issue. I would say they are better, but overall not enough to keep. I decided to get Birkenstock sandals and haven't been disappointed.

Reviewed at Vionic Shoes
Bought the sandal two weeks ago. Being that the shoe is coming from a shoe company dedicated to supporting arches I would assume all their shoes should have excellent arch support but I am wrong. Also being that the sandal are so costly You would also assume the quality would be higher than norma as well. Again I was wrong.

I have flatter feet so I do want some arch support, but I found all the vionics I tried to be too uncomfortable given their very high arch. Fitflops were a better match for my heel pain and flatter feet.

Great arch support but strap to loose so have to return. Maybe because it is meant for both men and women and the strap was designed for men. Maybe they should make a separate version for men and women.

I loved my last pair and ordered the same size this time. The length and width are the same, but unfortunately, the toe post is too high on this pair and I can't keep the sandal on my feet when I walk. It would probably fit a man's foot. We need women's sizes.

Nope! Can you say your feet will look like Fred Flintstone? And my pinky toes hung off-BUT at least they fit wide. So if you have short puny toes but wide width feel get them. But if you have longer toes-forget about it. Also the arch support was a little psycho on these.

I LOVED my khaki pair but after 2 years of constant use, I needed a new pair. Since I lost them all the time on my beige rug, I decided to go with black. They are not the same ð??© The black ones are noticeably more narrow & shorter. I should have gone up a size.

Although described as unisex, this sandal is very masculine. I am a size 7.5, ordered the women's 8 and it was way too big.

Arches were too high for my foot, but my foot is fairly flat. Wish it came in women and men's versions, it felt very clunky.

Comfortable but the strap part is too loose since it's unisex and they move around too much on my feet. Dissappointing.

Comfortable with good fit. However, the foot bed was dangerously slippery. Sadly, these are being returned.

I over pronate and need serious arch support, these flip flops were great for both problems... however, I have only had them a week and they are already breaking down. The outside edge by the strap is not glued down anymore. You would think that flip flops that cost $60 would last a bit longer... last time I paid that price they lasted 12 years...

I am totally disappointed in these. When choosing the size, it indicated men's/women's, which made me wonder if they were unisex. They are very loose in the straps and seem more a men's width than a women's. I have plantar fasciitis which had been pretty much resolved by GF Store arch supports and I definitely cannot wear regular flip-flops anymore and was really looking forward to these but they are probably going back. Women have narrower feet than men so why do they do this?

I wanted to love these sandals but they just didn't work for me. I suffer from nerve pain in my feet and Vionics have been a great solution for me so far, but the insole was just too rigid and felt really uncomfortable for me. I'm giving these three stars only because they don't work for my specific need. That said, I think Vionics are awesome, so don't let my review deter you from purchasing if your need isn't as specific as mine. These are super supportive so possibly they'll work for you!

Great service from Zappos, but these unisex sandals are way too large for a woman's foot.

I ordered these because I have planter fasciitis and I heard they will help. Had to return the first pair because they were way too big. I wear a women's 8, I had to get these in a size 7. Probably because they are unisex.

The arch and shoe bed are great the thong rubs between my toes badly. I'll need to put padding there.

I was not sure how these would fit given the sizing with both men and women. And I was right. My regular size 6 was too big. Too loose across the straps and too wide. They were also just a little too long in the length versus the other Vionic women's sandal I have bought. Unfortunately, these will need to be returned.

Meh. I purchased these shoes to wear around the house, as I am in month 10 of dealing with plantar fasciitis and wanted comfortable & supportive shoes to reduce the pain/impact of walking on hardwood floors. The shoes run big (similar to other reviews)... I normally wear a size 8 1/2 or 9, and I ordered a size 8. The footbed is still slightly large (length AND width), and the straps sit a bit high off of the top of my foot, but I'm keeping them as they do help reduce pain when walking around. But you won't find me wearing these outside of the house, while they are functional with medium arch support, they're not especially cute.

Olukai Kalupa offers a cuter shoe with the same arch support.

Felt loose (and I have moderately wide feet) and the arch support was somewhat hard and very noticeable with every step. Not keeping, especially at this price point.

This is the first time I've tried this brand and had super high expectations based on reviews. They are nicely made and have mega arch support. That said, they didn't do it for me. I felt like they were too structured and the heel cup felt low - like a negative slant Earthshoe which I do not like. This may, however be exactly what you're looking for!

I bought a pair of these last year and they were the only flip flops I wore all summer. I wore them again this summer and wore them out! Great flip flop. I am here now to buy another pair! I love them. I have a few Orthaheel flip flops now to be able to rotate them and have different colors now too. Highly recommended!
