Customer Reviews VIONIC Waverly

I’ve only had these one day but so far I’m impressed. These fit me perfectly. I am almost always a size 7 but 7.5 in boots. I have a slightly wide forefoot and skinny heels, making it hard to find shoes that are comfortable for my toes yet don’t slip in the heel. These fit pretty much like a glove though I suspect if I did extensive walking my heels might blister. If you have very narrow feet they may be a little wide but if you have normal or slightly wide feet these fit great. I was worried these would look too “grandma” but my trendy millennial friend says they’re super cute. I got the pink and it’s a very subtle pink - almost off white. The leather is buttery soft. They look cute with jeans but also spring stuff like shorts. The insole feels supportive yet I was disappointed the arch was not more pronounced. Still, the footbed feels good for my feet and supportive. I’m really happy with this purchase and will look at other shoes from this brand. Some of them look pretty dorky to me but this model is nice and I hope to find others.

These are the shoes I have been looking for. I wanted a loafer style that had an insole for plantar fasciitis. These were comfortable right out of the box and provide the arch and heel support I need. Also, the insole is leather lined which is something I was looking for. I don't like the non-absorbent synthetics that many insoles are made of now. Full disclosure, my right foot is a bit smaller than my left, so I my heel slips out on the right. Easily fixed with an adhesive cushion. Also, I would say these shoes are slightly larger than most size 8s, but I wouldn't say they are a full half size larger--thus the reason I rated them as true to size.

I have been looking for so long for a nice pair of suede black penny loafers and I love these shoes (so much so that I will probably buy another to have as backup). The Vionic footbed is great for arch support and it can easily be removed and replaced with another orthopedic insert. They are stylish and perfect for work or with a pair of skinny jeans

Bought these just a few days before a 2-week European trip and was really crosding my fingers. Pleasantly surprised by these, my first Vionics—I usually wear a size 9 but in these an 8.5 work great. I haven’t walked long distances in them yet and I hope they give just a little, but overall I think they’re really cute and I received compliments on them on day one. I have bunions, a metatarsal bruise, and plantar fasciitis, and these felt great on my feet right away. And thanks for the quick pre-vacation delivery, Zappos!

Bought these shoes in pink. Out of the box they are an excellent fit. I did go with my typical size 9 even those Zappos recommendation was 8.5. I have had corrective surgery for bunions - so not great feet and shoes are a difficult purchase which is why I LOVE Zappos! I do walk a bit in my job and these shoes are perfect. I have ordered the other two colors as well.

I love Vionic shoes/boots, but these particular shoes in size 8 medium were too narrow for my heel. I returned and ordered a size 7.5 and those also were too narrow in the heel. I wish Vionic offered shoes/boots in a narrow size.

I love these so much I ordered two pairs. I have had foot surgery on both feet along with broken bones in each foot. I commute on foot in Chicago and I need shoes that don’t hurt. These are amazing. I average 3-5 miles a day in these and they look professional for work.

I have looking for a pair of classic loafers forever and then these appeared. Not only are they exactly what I wanted, they fit beautifully right out of the box, have the great Vionic arch support and are a classic women’s loafer without bling or pretense. Love them!

It seemed to run large. Returned it for a half-size smaller. Otherwise, I loved everything about this shoe.

I got these in black and LOVE them. So much that I just ordered the pink! I'm a 9.5 and have kind of a skinny foot and these are perfect! I love Vionic and am so happy how comfy they are! Plus WAY more stylish! Thanks Zappos for having such a great selection!

I really like these shoes. I've worn Vionic shoes for quite a few years due to chronic plantar fasciitis. Vionic seems to be the most comfortable brand for me for this condition. The Waverly is very comfortable. They could have been a tad narrower, but they are not too wide to be uncomfortable. The arch is not quite as high as other Vionics I've worn, but my feet don't hurt, so they must be high enough. I wish they came in more colors, like dark brown and navy.

As others have said, the sizing is really odd with this shoe. I wear an 8.5 in Vionic sandals, so after reading about people's sizing problems in reviews I ordered both an 8.5 and a 9 in this shoe. The 9 was significantly too big. The 8.5 was too small. Very weird. It is a nice-looking shoe and has significant arch support, so if you happen to have the right size foot you'll probably be happy with it. I am sadly returning both the pairs I ordered.

I wanted to like these as there aren't many options for loafers and oxfords from Vionic. The pointed toe box makes for an awkward fit for anything but narrow feet. The arch support is decent, but not as good as other Vionic shoes or slippers. They're handsome shoes, but the raw edge of the suede is a bit of a casual finish for such a sleek suede shoe. The back of the shoe is a loose fit even for my wide feet. It had no grip on my heel and easily slipped off. I can only hope Vionic pays more attention to oxford and loafer options for women that is as varied as their men's options or produce men's shoes in smaller sizes for women.

I wear size 6 or 36 no matter the brand. These are just slightly loose but not to the point of slipping. Based on the price point and the orthotic reputation of the brand I expected more arch support. The shoes are comfortable enough for all day wear with plantar fasciitis and a fibroma. I love the classic style.

Best to buy half size smaller than normal

This is a really nice shoe and the leather is very soft. Unfortunately it is too large. I usually wear 91/2 wide but had to order 91/2 medium. even after stuffing the toe they still flop. I am going to try to exchange for 9 medium and hope that fits. They are very well made. One note if you are not used to a high arch support you may have to wear for short periods of time.

Great shoe! love the fit, style and beautiful suede! Order 1/2 size down the Waverly runs a bit large! Wish they had navy! Thank you ZAPPOS!!

I usually wear a 10. I needed a 9.5, which was perfect. Very stylish loafers.

Beautiful color and great fit. Vionic never disappoints. I have several shoes and boots from Vionic and will continue to purchase this brand. Thanks Zappos for carrying this brand.

This was an exchange from a previous orde . First pair was too big. I usually wear a 6.5, but the 6 fits perfect. I have bunions, and a narrow heel. Very happy to find a great loafer for my difficult feet.

I have these in the gold and LOVE them!! While the arch support in them is good, I did remove the inserts and put my own orthotics in. Great shoe that is versatile with all sorts of styles.

I love Vionic for the comfort, support & styling. I bought this loafer in the pink (very light, like a buff pink). They did not disappoint. I absolutely love the color and they are very comfortable. I always find that Vionic runs a bit roomier than other brands which is good for me as I have a wide foot. I usually wear a 7 or 7.5, in Vionic, I always order a 7. Because some reviewers said they were a bit narrow, I ordered the 7.5, but returned them for the 7, which are perfect as usual. I highly recommend this brand as well as the shoe. *Don’t forget to spray them to protect from dirt and water. I bought the Frye spray at Zappos, but not sure how well it works on these shoes yet!

I love Vionics - especially their flats. The arch support is terrific for someone who is on their feet all day, and I do not feel like I'm compromising style for comfort. We'll see how the fabric holds up. I'm a little worried the light pink color may get dirty easily, but I still love it!

I had to have these the minute I set eyes on them. These loafers were exactly what I was looking for. I ordered them in a 7.5 because my foot is wide. They were too big, so I exchanged them for the 7. Vionics usually are cut wider than most shoes and the 7 was perfect for me. Don't forget to use suede and leather protector before you wear these!!!! After doing my research I purchased (from Zappos) the Frye protector as it got great reviews. Can't wait until the heatwave is over so I can wear my new pink loafers! BTW, the color is really light, like a buff pink.

I’m a 10.5/11 and Usually with vionics I go down to a 10, but luckily i ordered a10 and an 11. I definitely need the 11. This is a classic loafer in a deep dark black, I’m looking forward to cool weather so i can wear them.
