I ordered these sandals in early Spring and couldn"t wait to wear them.
They are very cute on and comfortable. The only complaint I have is I have only had them a couple of months and the velcro seems to be wearing out. I will fasten the velcro and then a few minutes after wearing them it will come loose again.

We are very comfortable shoes. I haven't worn them much but so far I like them. I like the Velcro adjustment but I think after adjusting one of the areas, it came undone after walking. I'll have to try them again to be sure the Velcro stays put after adjusting. But comfort wise - these are great!

The arch support was not enough for me. I use my custom orthotics when wearing them and now they are very comfortable.

These shoes are very cute - better than I expected. The arch is good, the velco adjustment is delightful. My only two comments, small, 1. why did Vionic use light brown for velco instead of dark brown to be less noticeable... 2. the band on my inside instep of my foot does not hug my foot properly there is a gap. It is minor but it urks me because they are so expensive therefore i feel they should fit properly and completely. Other than that I really like them and I think they can be dressed up as well as worn casually.
I have a very complicated foot,(high arch, high instep, bunion and slightly wide) so I am happy to find a shoe that fits comfortably w a little sassy style.

The footbed is comfortable. However, I have an average width foot and these were slightly too wide for me even with the adjustable straps. Women with wider feet will love this shoe. Order a 1/2 size down if you're inbetween a whole size (i.e. order a size 8 if you normally wear 8.5).

Nice shoes! I even have a purse that matches. Too bad, shoes are too wide for me. Sad that I have to return them.

These shoes are comfortable right out of the box. I wore them to a wedding and even danced in them. My feet are problem feet with bunions and hammer toes so it is unusual for me to be comfortable in shoes. These aren't the dressiest sandals but they are a step up from my usual Teva's or sneakers. The color was the only disappointment. They do lean toward a pale yellow. I wish they were more beige or tan-like. I usually wear a 7 1/2 and I got a 7 like they suggested.

These sandals are the second pair of Voinics I own. These help tremendously with arch support and foot stabilization. This model runs wide in the front and the Velcro adjustment helps only a little for tightening. The look is stylish and they are extremely light weight.

Felt larger than expected,but felt comfortable. Stylish and great support. Recently had a stress fracture in foot and this shoe helped with recovery. Ordering a pair for daughter.

Great shoe for planter fasciitis. Adjustable straps make for great fit. Don't look like orthotics. Love them!

So far, so good! I just got 'em so can't say definitively that they're the best shoes ever but they are totally cute and comfortable (although it takes a little getting used to the raised dots on the foot bed!)A friend recommended this brand and she's picky, so I'm hoping that bodes well for me!

I needed sandals for a wedding. With Planter Fasciitis I needed ones that are comfortable but they were too big. Zappos is great, appreciated that I could try various shoes and return them without a problem!

Would like to see these come in half sizes. Order a size up if you are a half. This is probably my 4 or 5th pair of vionics and I wish they would come up with more work/dress shoes for fall/winter. The sandals are great but cannot handle Chicago winters!

Very comfortable to wear and excellent arch support. Ordered two additional pairs. The "white" pair is not a true white, however.

I am looking for shoes for my wedding. It is nearly impossible to find a white pair of sandals in size 5 in the spring. I love Vionic & have multiple problems with my feet. A review warned that "Pearl white" did not mean the shoe was white. I decided to order anyway. The shoes look gold next to my white dress. I decided to keep them because the fit is wonderful & I will wear them with other outfits, but I am still shopping for wedding sandals.

A cute summer sandal that also provides arch support is difficult for me to return, but I could not adjust the straps enough for it to stay on my foot.

These are the first pair of Vionics I ever tried, at the suggestion of my podiatrist. My feet adored the footbed; the arch support was fabulous for my plantar fasciitis footsies. I also thought they were quite cute on. Sadly, the straps rubbed on one foot (the smaller one), so I had to send these back. I will be trying another style soon.

I loved the support and style but the last 2 pairs cut into my bunions unlike a style I bought a couple of years ago. I wish the designers would take this into consideration

These had the potential to be comfy and cute. The Velcro on the straps ruin it all. The cheap material on top rubs your feet raw.

Would be great except arch support is too aggressive for me and hits my long arch in the wrong place. Cute shoe, but just didn't work for me.
I keep searching and I'm so grateful to Zappos for making it feasible to try so many different shoes. .

I LOVE LOVE LOVE the support these sandals give. They also look quite nice. At first they were a bit tight everywhere but after a couple of days they stretched out. After a month, they were too loose!
However, I am speechless at the quality of Velcro...It literally detached after a few weeks and I had to sew them back on! Doesn't look so nice anymore. I would seriously consider returning them to the manufacturer (not Amazon) if I had bought them from Vionic itself. Velcro not just detached, it stopped holding altogether, so I needed to buy all new better Velcro. For shoes that expensive, this is absolutely unacceptable. Payless has WAY better Velcro!
I do need the arch support so I will keep looking for non-Velcro styles, as I see many people complain about the Velcro.

Didn't really like this style on me. A little like my mother used to wear. Runs big and quite wide. Did seem like it would be comfortable in the right size.

I liked the style and look but when I tried them on in my 8M size, they were right around the toe area and uncomfortable. I returned them immediately but kept the other Vionic wedges that I had ordered also in 8M.

These are insanely comfortable shoes...but vanity won out. They have an unfortunate orthopedic look to them. The footbed is beyond comfortable -- I know I'm going to miss it, but they were too sturdy looking, too grandma-esque to keep, sadly!
