I have really wide feet-- like mutantly wide feet (one of my sisters even says they're almost square), and there are no closed-toe shoes in the world that don't make my feet hurt. It's just a pain I've come to accept, along with being the girl that always takes her shoes off under the table at upscale events. So color me SHOCKED when I walked around in these boots for the first time, straight out of the box, for 3 straight hours and felt zero pain. I didn't even notice it until I took them off and realized that I didn't feel that familiar relief I normally feel when I take my shoes off because my feet were so comfy in the boots. These are magical, so cute on, and worth every. single. penny.

OMG comfortable! This is my first Vionic shoe and I am amazed at the ergonomic weight distribution in a heel. My weight is actually evenly distributed, not all on the ball of my foot. The arch support is great, and the leather is supple and comfortable. There is plenty of room in the toe box, even though the shape is streamlined. I am very impressed and will be trying other Vionic shoes.

I love these shoes!! They go so well with all my pinterest outfits. I love to wear them with ripped denim either black or dark blue. I wore these on a recent trip to Boston and San Francisco and they fared well. These are the only shoes I pack now for work trips because the Saddle color goes with everything!! One thing to note is the shoe did hurt my pinky toe the first two times wearing them but other than that these have been amazing shoes. I highly recommend these. I also have had two bunion surgery's and they have been very easy to wear despite still have foot pain from time to time!

This is my first Vionic shoe purchase and I have to say these are so comfortable! The Greige color is a nice neutral option that goes with everything too. With that said, there is one major flaw with the heel design. The wood grain look is a laminate overlay, which is typical these days. However, I wore them to dinner with a friend for the first time and we ended up sitting in bar stools. I rested my feet on the wooden rung of the bar stool with the rung between the heel of the boot and the arch area. The laminate peeled away where the heel rested on the wooden rung (the inside of the heel, closest to the arch), it basically rubbed the laminate overlay off the heel. I'm so disappointed, especially since they're not a cheap boot!! I have a size 11 foot so finding shoes are difficult for me. So since they are so comfortable I've requested a replacement pair rather than a refund. I just know not to rest my feet on the bar stools again!

Great boot, especially cute for an orthpedic shoe- thanks Vionic! Shoe materials are of good quality. Heel height is perfect and very comfortable. My only complaint is that the shoe feels about 1/2 size larger than marked.

Pretty wonderful boot. A new experience to be comfortable from the outset instead of having to break a boot/shoe in agonizingly as it stretches to accommodate my wide foot. That said, I measure a 5 1/2 but usually buy a size six shoe because of width. I purchased these boots in a 6 W, a mistake since they're a bit too large (I fix that with thick socks). Should have bought a 5 1/2. Anyway, thick socks to boot, I can happily and comfortably march about in these for hours. Terrific.

I have purchased and liked Vionic slippers and sandals because of their comfort and support but overall have never found a shoe from them that didn't look "orthopedic". However, after being in an aircast for the last 6 weeks and undergoing physical therapy for a foot injury as well as suffering from flat feet by podiatrist says it is time to get into more supportive shoes. So I looked again at Vionic and these booties are great. They have a great look and style comparable to what you're seeing in all the fashion magazines for booties this fall and also provide a cushioned foot bed and really good arch support. I got the Greige and they are perfect, not too tan or too grey. The perfect neutral to go with everything. Although I cannot wear them yet I look forward to wearing them this season after my foot recovers and the seasons after. I hope that Vionic brings out more styles that actually look more fashionable. I'm a fan of their comfort but not so much their styles...fingers are crossed for better things to come look-wise.

These are beautiful boots! My feel are too wide for them (even in wide) but they would be a wonderful addition to a winter wardrobe.

These were pricey, but I'm so glad I got them. They're very comfortable to walk in and they look great. The toes are rubbed a bit so they're a little shiny like the picture shows. Well-made, high-quality shoes.

These Vionic Sterling boots are really comfortable and the color is beautiful. They felt slightly small at the beginning, but now they are true to size after stretching a bit. Great everyday cognac ankle boot.

These are great looking. I so wanted to keep them but unfortunately they don't fit properly. I need a smaller size and Zappos is sold out. Sad.

Super comfortable for a heal! I can't usually wear heals for long but was able to go shopping and visit a museum while wearing these. I had taken flats just in case but didn't need them. Cute and comfortable. Looks great with a rolled jean.

OMG - These are super cute and comfortable. I love the zipper on the outside of the boot and the toe and heel are slightly shaded, which looks great. The toe of the boot is just pointy enough to be stylish but still very comfortable. Last - I love the heel. It makes the boot everyday chic but still wearable all day long.

Wow! I really can't say enough amazing things about these shoes! I have pretty significant plantar fasciitis in my right foot, and a touch in my left. I am an assistant principal at a high school and am on my feet from 8-12 hours a day, which doesn't do much for my condition. Since I found out about Vionics, I feel like I am buying a new pair with every paycheck.
Enter the Sterling. I wanted a bootie that I could dress up or down, something with a heel, and something on trend. This shoe hits every mark. For me, it was like Cinderella!
Like a glove, I'm telling you! I slid my feet in, and they zipped right up. And cute, too! The tassel detail is a flirty and fun detail. I decide to wear them to work the next day which was a minimum of 12 hours. I knew it was risky. But, ladies, I made it all the way with no problems! The shoe hugged my arch through the whole day. I had no fatigue and no pain in my heels at all. This has NEVER happened--not even with my other Vionics. My students, teachers, other staff members, even people at the event I attended that evening kept asking me about my shoes! I felt so cute, and my feet felt so good.
Now, I am anxiously watching for a pair in black to come in stock in my size so I can snatch those up, too! I know the price point is high, but if you have heel pain like I do, and you're on my feet like I am, and you don't want to sacrifice fashion yet, you've got to get these. They're worth it! :)

These brown booties are BEAUTIFUL!!! LOVE THEM. I never write reviews. I however decided not to keep them because I have gone a little crazy with bootie purchases and I have a similar exisiting pair that I need to make due with for now. Vionics are always so comfortable. They are so stylish. The brown color is PERFECT. The block heel makes the boots so sturdy. I will pray that they bring these boots back next year when I can justify the purchase.

These boots are super stylish and comfy. I typically wear a 9.5 in Clarks, however I ordered Black suede 9. Glad I ordered 1/2 size down, because after 5 wearings, they did stretch a little, which is good because you can wear with tights or thick wool socks. Sprayed with waterproof, walked all over Boston & Salem 2 days, looking like a local!

Unbelievably comfortable! The first heels I've had on that didn't feel like heels at all -- that orthotic footbed is miraculous. How I wish I could keep these, but they're simply too casual for my needs.

I did not expect to be shopping for a stylish shoe like this, but was looking into Vionics after a coworker recommended them for picky feet like mine. After reading all the glowing reviews, I was ready to risk ordering a pair and trying them out myself. This was my first pair of Vionics and I have been mostly off heels in general for a very long time, due to DPU and problems with some of my bones shifting as I walk as well Morton's Toe/Foot problem that makes the ball of my feet feel very uncomfortable. I tried these out at home when they arrived and was worried about my pinky toe feeling a little cramped in the narrow toe box, as well as the front of the top of the shoe hitting my shin. All of these issues seemed to resolve after wearing the shoes for some time. I suspect the leather warmed up enough to soften enough even for my very sensitive feet. I wore them to work the other day and they passed the test. With pants, they look like cowboy boots, which I don't mind. I'm pretty happy with my first Vionics and my first stylish booties in a very long time. Thank you!

Wow! I can't wait to wear these when the weather gets cooler. Great color that will go with many items & the heel isn't overwhelmingly high. The arch support is great!

These are awesome. I exchanged them for another style with a slightly lower heel, but if I could have kept both, I would have.
