Customer Reviews VIONIC Tucker

I am reviewing the Vionic 535 Fresh Tucker Grey USA. These shoes have tremendous arch support. Better than any other pair of shoes I have worn. The shoes are terrific if you need arch support, are on your feet for extended periods or just want to improve your posture. I have worn them 3 times this week and I find them to be extremely comfortable. One of the features of these shoes is their minimal weight. Both shoes together do not register as 1 lb on my scale. As you can see below, they have vented holes 80% around the circumference. The vents combined with the lightweight character of the shoes makes these ideal for summer/warm weather. My feet are actually cooler as compared to other shoes. I don't think I would want to wear this model in cold weather for the same reason. You should select a size 1/2 size smaller than your regular shoe. The thinness of the shoe makes the fit run a little bit larger. I only have a couple of minor complaints about the shoe. The shoelaces are approximately 3-4" too long. The laces match the shoe perfectly but they are too long even with double knots. I would prefer for the laces not to hang down as far as they do. The second item is that I would have made the bottom part of shoe dark grey as opposed to white. While the contrast is nice, I can assume that at some point the white won't be as white. These are minor issues and I would purchase other shoes made by Vionic.

Just got them but they seem comfortable (and will hopefully help with plantar fasciitis). Good style, too

Great summer shoe. Super lightweight and breathable. Runs slightly large.

I have large, wide feet but generally prefer light shoes with thin soles and a lot of breathability and flexibility. They're extremely difficult to find and after they stopped making the Merrells that actually fit me, I thought I'd never have comfortable shoes again. Then I lucked across these in a local store, and they're even better! The Merrells were gray and neon green, these are a nice dignified black, and though the soles are slightly thicker, they're still light and flexible enough that you can feel the ground beneath your feet. The Merrells had a thin mesh for the upper part, the Vionics have a light, perforated leather that is still very comfortable, and a lot more durable- no more holes in the toes from propping open a door with my foot. My only complaint is that, for their price, they wear out fairly quickly- my first pair of Vionics were still in pristine condition on top, but the pattern on the soles was worn completely smooth within about a year, and a small hole from stepping on a sharp rock rapidly enlarged to one big enough to poke a toe through. These shoes are extremely comfortable and I love them, I just wish they didn't wear out so quickly! The soles really seem to be the weak point, everything else about them was almost in like-new condition, with none of the peeling rubber, loose threads, worn-away heels or other damage that's so common in most shoes.

My husband liked the shoe, BUT, the mesh fabric on the outside was felt on the inside and he didn't like that feeling of the mesh rubbing up against his toes and the top of his foot. Sadly, they were returned.

Good shoe for the summer. Looks very good. But support is not as good as other Vionics I've had.

I work retail and have worn this shoe the past 5 days. I love the comfort and the lightweight aspect of the shoe, as well as the ventilation since I'm on my feet all day. I have been using the Vionic inserts for the past few years and am really glad that they are making some more stylish shoes for guys. I just ordered myself some Vionic flips for summer.

I had high hopes for these vionics but they are too wide in the back and have less arch support than advertised.

Style and color are great, but that was about it. As other reviewers have pointed out, these are not as well constructed as the price dictates. Laces were unreasonably long. Unlined is another word for thin upper. The leather is perforated, so unless you plan on wearing these in a warm climate (or if your feet just run warm LOL) keep that in mind. The one thing that was amazing was the arch support. If I can find another pair of Vionics with the same arch support but a little more 'substantial' of a shoe....sign me up!

These shoes look great in the picture, but do not waste your money. These should not be $130. From materials to quality of build, there is just not much there. "Unlined" sounds elegant but it only means that the leather is thin, the stitching is weak, and there is virtually no support. I have about 5 miles on them and the tread has already worn almost flat and the sole has compressed to the point that I feel every pebble under my foot. I can crumble the sole with my thumbnail. The shoestrings are about a foot too long and the cheapest I have ever seen. And they hurt. It is not a matter of breaking them in, as they have already broken down. Spend your money on Eccos or New Balance.
