Customer Reviews VIONIC Lizbeth

You name it, I've tried it. Zappos has been so patient with me - order and return, order and return. To quote Etta James, "At Last!" I have been searching for an attractive, supportive sandal and this is it! I have a high instep which is a big challenge to fit properly and my feet are on the wide side where my little toe sometimes hangs over the edge of a narrow sandal. Not with these - the footbed is a beautiful leather and the arch support, oh the arch support. Magnificent! Another review stated the ribbon between the toes was cheap looking and uncomfortable however I find it very soft and comfortable. Others stated the straps weren't long enough and I don't find that to be a problem - I started on the second hole and have three more to expand after the leather stretches a bit. The straps are thin and feminine however the sandals don't flop on my feet and I feel like I am wearing the perfect sandal. Lastly, I am a size 8.5 in a sandal and ordered a 9. It fit me perfectly. I am so sad that these are sold out in my size in the cork. Do yourself a favor - order this sandal!

The picture of the gold cork sandal makes it look like the metallic accents are silver, but they are actually gold. I normally wear a W size, but if it is a lengthwise thong sandal as opposed to a crosswise sandal band, I don't need to order W in Vionic. The footbed of the sandal is plenty accommodating for wide feet. I have fallen arches and plantar fasciitis, and I love Vionic comfort. I normally wear Birkenstocks, which have saved my life, but when I want a more delicate looking sandal, Vionic does the job very nicely.

I have very narrow feet, regular instep and extremely flat feet. These sandals provide excellent support...beware, the first day or 2 wearing them your feet will kill you because you're not use to that support, but by day 3 you will feel like you're walking on a cloud. It has gone to the point where I now can no longer walk around the house barefoot, so I either wear these or the mono trail flip flops which Also I highly recommend. And Zappos customer support was wonderful because this is my third pair in a similar style from Vionics, the second of which just recently broke at the strap after extended use, and they provided this pair even though it was after the 1 year return policy for just the markup in price only. Cannot recommend highly enough! Ankle strap and toe strap are comfortable. Heel is slightly molded and high enough to provide for comfortable back and spine alignment. Foot bed is covered in soft plush felt. Very well made.

Love everything about this show but the metal disks did into my foot from the disk closest to the toes. I hate to have to send it back! The snakeskin is beautiful - too bad they put those disks all the way down the t-strap!

I really wanted this shoe to work. I love Vionic and this shoe is really pretty. But the support is not there. These feel significantly less supportive than my other Vionics and the straps are so flimsy that the shoe just flops around on your foot. I need a lot of arch support because I pronate and have weak ankles, and after a few steps in these I could see how I would easily twist my ankle in these. They do not stay on your feet and the toe post is a cheap ribbon. I am disappointed with this year's sandals, there seems to be a significant decrease in the quality of Vionic shoes. They were my go-to brand!

I was really hoping to love this shoe as it is so cute! It's hard to find sandals with support and the cute factor. Unfortunately the strap between the toes pulled too hard against my foot, making them uncomfortable. Darn.

Beautiful shoe, but not for a slightly narrow foot. I ordered 3 pairs of Vionics in 8M (I wear 8 1/2) and the lengths were great in all of them, but they were all too wide. I ordered this shoe in the Gold Cork and really loved the look. However, my foot flops around too much when walking. It negates any support I could possibly feel. Wish Vionics would make narrow shoes! I think you will like this shoe if you have a wider foot.

Super cute shoe, very comfortable. But the straps are too loose, so the sandal sort of flops around.

These look much better than the pics show. The gold is really pretty gold. I have a wide foot and they had room. I wouldn't recommend them for a narrow foot but the support is dreamy.

Super comfortable and can wear all day! I work at an outside wedding center and wanted cute sandals that keep my feet feeling good all day long, first sandal to have support and not look like a granny sandal!

This sandal is AMAZING! I have flat feet and never like to wear sandals because they are usually so flat.. leaving my ankles, shins, knees and back in pain after only a short time. I wear these all day long with superior support! The best part is that they are actually CUTE.

LOVE these. I live in DC where I walk a lot and bought these before a family trip to Disney based on reviews that said they were excellent for all the walking in both places. Over a year later, I am not disappointed. After years of bumming around in my beloved Reefs, I decided it was time to put on my big girl pants and get a sandal that not only looked more polished (my Jack Rogers could do that), but also that were comfortable enough to walk miles in, run and climb after the kids at the park, etc. I ordered a bunch of attractive (to me, at least) "comfort" sandals including a couple Birkenstocks, another Vionic style and couple others I can't recall now and the Vionics were far and away the most comfortable and flattering. Great support and the ankle strap, while a bit annoying for taking on and off, make up for it by staying securely on my feet say, when I'm riding a bike or on a swing with my kids. And they are flattering to my ankle and (let's be honest, short) leg, whether worn with capris or sundresses! I had never heard of Vionic before my Zappos search for the perfectly adorable comfort sandal, but am so grateful for the incredibly helpful reviews that lead me to them that I came back to try to do "my part" through this review.

Stylish and comfortable

PERFECTION!!! I can't say enough about these sandals, they are very soft, fit well and look good. I don't usually wear sandals for walking (I usually get blisters) but these held up in the middle of summer in New Orleans, without one blister or irritated spot. I can't say enough about them and I wear a size 11.

Sandals with arch support are hard to find, and these are AMAZING! These fit the bill perfectly for lightweight, neutral-toned, and comfortable. I'm a fashion-conscious traveller and these were the only non-orthotic looking pair I could find and I ended up loving them. I purchased them specifically for a trip to India where I did a ton of walking and needed something that would pair with my sundresses. These were perfect and the cork paired well with everything I packed. The sole has small grip bumps, but they're not noticeable while wearing. The toe strap rubbed initially on one foot, but a bandaid and I was good to go again. The sole gave plenty of support and thickness over uneven terrain. Even better, these didn't discolor or smell after the trip. My only concern is that the stitching on the small piece of elastic on the strap wore rather quickly.

Not only are these shoes cute, they are so comfortable! I have plantar fasciitis and this foot bed is a dream. I have them in the beige color and had to buy the black. They feel like maybe a little longer than my usual size so I bought the next size down.

I am a solid 8 1/2 in Nine West and based on other reviews went with a size 8 which fit perfectly. I walked miles and miles in these at Disney World straight out of the box with no break in time. The arch support is great. I did get a blister in a weird spot under one of my toes but I'm not sure why because they seemed relatively comfortable. They have these very subtle bumps on the bottom of the soles and I kept feeling like I had sand under my feet. It was kind of weird not sure why that is a feature. That's why I give it 4 stars on comfort but still a 5 overall they are very cute.

Wonderful shoe!!! Extremely comfy; cant wait until its warm again.

I have owned other orthoheel shoes and have been very happy with how they improve foot pain. These are very cute with the more slender straps but still stay secure on my feet. I can wear them all day and my feet feel fine and they look good.

These shoes are very, very, very comfortable. I don't usually like shoes that go thru my toes but these are the exception. Has a nice arch support and the suede is nice and soft. My foot Dr. Recommended this brand so I gave them a try. I'd totally recommend this shoe!

These are the best, most comfortable sandals or shoes of any kind I've ever worn! They provide good arch support without being stiff or hard and the cushioned sole is amazing. But the bonus is... they look great too.

LOVE these sandals. Comfy, stylish, supportive. I have other pairs of vionic sandals, ordered the same size.

I am really happy with this purchase. The shoe is light weight, stylish and has a pretty good arch support. I would definitely recommend and purchase again.
