Customer Reviews VIONIC Sierra

I am a fan of Vionic shoes, which offer the right combination of support for my over-pronation and Morton's neuroma. However as a aize 8.5 WW I often can't wear the closed styles. This shoe has a completely stretch fabric upper which has enough give to accommodate my foot without any pressure to irritate the neuroma, while also stabilizing with the heel cup and arch support. I wore them for the first time on a cross-country plane trip with plenty of walking through the airport, and they remained comfortable even on my swollen feet. I was also able to use them for 4-mile brisk walks with no issues. They will be my new go-to travel shoe. The black is subtle enough for European cities (although a solid black sole would be better) but can also be used for moderate exercise. They are also very light weight. My only complaint, as mentioned by others, is the scratchy tag on the tongue of the shoe. I was able to take them off completely using a seam ripper, which made the shoe perfectly comfortable, with or without socks.

I've been a fan of Vionic ever since suffering a lower back injury and plantar fascia problems. I really like these shoes. I *dislike* sneakers, overall, having tried so many over the years. Either they're too bulky, not supportive, make my feet hot, aggravate my back and plantar fascia issues, etc. But these feel like walking on a cloud and are supportive. I've had no problems. I plan on giving them a real test as I start a serious exercise regime and do major walking--as opposed to tooling around. I see two slight negatives with the shoe: one the color choice was limited in my size, and two, the material probably wouldn't be good in wet weather (I have yet to find out). I wish Vionic had an even greater selection in wide shoes, overall, because I would buy their brand exclusively.

Love these shoes....bough the black/white pattern...fit true to size and no break-in period needed. Material stretches to fit foot. I have a very high arch so I still needed my arch supports but even with those and padded socks, the shoes still fit great! Would definitely recommend!

I really liked how these fit my feet, as if they were made just for me. Seemed very comfortable. But two issues concerned me that, over time while wearing them, these shoes will become much less comfortable. They're two issues that probably go unnoticed by most, yet I have extra sensitive skin/feet. First, there are stick-on tags inside each shoe right under the ankle. Walking around my living room, the tag rubbed in an annoying way. I don't wear socks because seams in socks also irritate my feet and make shoes feel too tight/hot, but socks would likely alleviate this issue. Second, the material isn't as breathable as I'd hoped. I live in a hot, humid climate and just 10 minutes on my feet felt swollen and hot. If not for those two aspects, I'd love these shoes.

Love these sneakers! The black & white pattern is the best! Dressier then others that have so many bright colors! Can be worn for more than just exercise. Comfortable, especially for those with hammer toes or bunions because the body is fabric and gives in the right places.

I really like the look of this shoe, but there is no support.

Really cute shoe and so comfy. I am returning it with regret because the toe looks too pointy for my taste.

These are very comfy but ran a little big for me. Had to reorder in a size down

These are lightweight, well made, and have wonderful arch support. Fit true to size. Unfortunately, most shoes nowadays are not made with much arch support, if any, so to see the AMAZING arch support in these was a relief! Very comfy, breathable, and supportive. Will definitely buy again!

This is my 2nd pair of Vionic shoes and I love them, super comfortable and nice support. This shoe has a mesh top that makes them very airy and they work well as a casual shoe. There is not enough support in the mesh to work out in these, but I could walk the day away and my feet would still be loving these shoes. I even bought another pair for my mom!

I absolutely love this shoe. I have bad sciatica in my left leg and have used the Vionic Tide Sandals for years to help alleviate pain when walking so decided to try these on for size. I normally wear a 9-9.5 and I bought these in the 9 and love them. I have even worn these without socks, but I don't recommend it. My feet normally never have an odor, but even in socks now, they will smell in these shoes because I wore them multiple times without socks. I am guessing it is what the shoes are made of that causes the odor with my feet. None of my other shoes do this. I don't care. I wear these around the house and when I go out for errands. I have the Drift Vionics in 9.5 for distance walking. I have tried these in theme parks and the Sierra does not do well for my heel/nerve issues. They are comfortable though and lightweight. These did not require the usual break in time that a Vionic requires either.

Wonderfull light weight sneaker. Makes your feet look smaller. I normally wear a size 11,5, but the sneakers from Vionic fall big and you can go down a half size. Also nice looking under a sporty skirt or dress.

Wanted a sneaker to wear on upcoming trip to Vegas. Has to be Vionic but I wanted something lighter and more stylish than the white leather walkers. These are perfect! I chose the navy color with fuscia trim. They are very light and breathable. I would have preferred a wide width but they were out of stock so I ordered regular width and they fit well. I may slip in an arch support, time will tell. The arch support inside the sneakers is not as strong as in other Vionic shoes that I own but will spend some time walking in these and see how my feet feel. So glad to see that Vionic is offering more stylish options.

Perfect out of the box! Wore these to Disneyland -24k steps first day! No blisters, running etc. wore them without socks - super light weight & no annoying seams!

Ok, these aren't the cutest shoe, however, I bought them to help me with my foot pain during Zumba. So far they are working out well. I have a bunion on one foot and these are helping that discomfort, plenty of room in the toe box for the bunion. Great support all over, my foot doesn't fall to the side on either foot and great arch support. Too bad they are so pricey, and not great looking. But they are doing what is most important, making my feet feel better.

These sneakers are incredibly comfortable, light weight and work well with orthotics.

Ordered 9.5 W, white/Black. Nice wide toe box, good everyday walk around shoe, fits true to size. Comfortable out of the box. First time buyer of this brand and satisfied. Other brands I wear are Brooks and Mizuno for walking and court sports. Only use the Vionic Sierra for casual days..

I tried to find this shoe on avionics site and Amazon and both did not have my size. My husband suggested Zappos and you did have my size. The shoe is extremely comfortable and I have received many compliments on the style.

I love love love these shoes. I normally wear stylish shoes with zero support and recently got plantar fasciitis in my left foot, causing me pain and making it very difficult to do a nice downward facing dog in yoga. So I decided to get shoes with support and had resigned myself to get some ugly old lady shoes. But then I found these! They are so friggin comfortable and really good looking. I wear them everywhere. My feet are in heaven.

run long

Cute & supportive!

Wow! A Different sensation! Great for walking, and the shoe seems to have realigned my knee.

These did fit well and seem true to size. They are lightweight, but looking for winter wear and another style, Satima, was better suited.

love these sneakers - very comfortable and stylish

I love the fit, support and style of these shoes. I have the yellow ones!
