Customer Reviews VIONIC Allora Ballet Flat

I was happy to see nicely styled flats with arch support, and that Vionic is finally offered in leather uppers instead of synthetic. These shoes did run very short. I take a 10, or even a 9, usually - and the 10 in this style had my toes pressing against the end. I am returning them and trying an 11.

I love my Vionic flip flops. These shoes didn't work for me at all. I ordered half a size larger and it was still short. Also cut very wide. And the heel is cut higher than is comfortable for me. I am disappointed.

I am a devout fan of Orthaheel and own many pairs of their shoes. This was to be my first pair after they rebranded themselves as Vonic. I am so disappointed. The lovely high arch support that I love is gone. They have used the Dr Weir footbed which is much lower and less supportive than the Orthaheel version. I do not know what I am going to do. I was so happy for the move to leather shoes. The styling on these shoes was cute but looked cheap and plasticky (how do they manage to do that?) I ordered half a size up as suggested and found the length fit well. I cannot comment on any other aspects of fit as I had to return these.

I wear an 8 normally the toe are is so small in these shoes that I have tried all the way up to 9½ and I have returned every pair. I am super bummed.

Why is it that I can wear an 8 in a Vionics sandal but the size 8.5 in this ballet flat was way too short? I really wanted these shoes to work but alas, they did not. Cute but the fabric it was made out of didn't seem nice enough to justify the price and again, the sizing was way off.

I own several pairs of Orthaheel (now Vionic) sandals and wear a 9. I read reviews that they ran small and ordered these in a 10 and they were still too tight-toe pushing against edge. The arch seemed true to a Orthaheel standards and I'm going to try them in an 11. Fingers crossed.

I bought the black lizard ones but they were too small. Zappos didn't have the elevens. I have a bunion and hammertoe and I think these shoes should work for me. I am glad to see a shoe with a cute ballet style and good arch support.
