Customer Reviews VIONIC Alma

I usually wear a narrow shoe and tennis shoe so was hesitant to order the Medium width Vionic but had heard good things about the brand so thought I'd give it a try. I was pleasantly surprised that it fits really well - my heel doesn't slip and my forefoot doesn't slide around. Definitely worth giving a try!

I was looking for everyday, easy to put on sneakers. These are very nice- good looking. I ordered my usual size 9M, and the fit is good, with good arch support. The one thing that I did not like was the foot opening - it felt as if the stretchy part came up rather high on the ankle.

Love this shoe. Stylish; light weight; great for walking/riding a bike, but would still like a little more cushion on overall sole.

I own several pairs of Vionic shoes and sandals. They are the only brand that I can wear without my custom orthotics and my feet don't complain. That said, these shoes have the least support of any Vionic shoes that I own. They are very cute and stylish, easy to put on, and basically comfortable. I don't think that I could walk around all day in them, but they work well enough to suit my needs so I am keeping them.

I like the shoe, it seemed very comfortable, but ultimately was too snug across the middle bony section on top of my foot -- but I have this issue with many shoes. Agree with other reviewer, laces are merely for looks, don't really impact tightness of shoe. Comfortable fit overall, wish I could've kept them.

I actually really liked these because the arch support was perfect for me and I seriously thought about keeping them. But I need sturdier shoes for walking and these are more like casual sneakers. The blue and gray combo was the best option but I didn't love the polka dot laces. Sent back but may consider these in the future if I'm looking for casual sneakers.

These were to big

Not as much arch support as needed, just a little shy on length for size 8. Wide width is really wide and comfortable. Style is ok.

Sho ran short and the toe box was too tight on the top of my toes and yet my heel was slipping out so I know if I got a larger size that problem would become worse. Generally I have no problem getting a good fit in this brand. This shoe was very different than the usual vionic. I thought the style was cute. This shoe did not have a tongue. It had one complete connected piece over the top of the foot with no adjustment possible when you tighten or loosen the shoe.

Shallow toe box

I typically wear a 7 in a Vionic shoe but these were just a bit too snug in the toe. I'd recommend at least a half size up.

I own many pairs of vionic athletic shoes and sandals all are 10 wide. This pair feels one half size short as well as not wide. Nice style and light, I'm sad I have to return them.

Didn’t feel like a wide shoe. Overall tight

Liked the look but not as supportive as I need.

For me, the heel is too high putting pressure on your toes. I wish they'd make shoes with less of a heel. I don't want to feel like I'm walking in high heels.

These were really cute but they felt like I was getting stabbed with the arch support because of how rigid it was! Couldn't work!

No arch support and difficult to get into, withou laces. I am returning for shoes with true laces.

Way to tight!! i am a sixez 6. I hate that there is NO Tung! You need a Tung to get your foot in! The thin fabric hugging the Ankle dug into my skin felt like my circulation was getting cut off. I don't like the laces very slippery . And the tiny bungy loops holding the laces make it so i cant tighten the shoe at all! I love love love the look but it needs changes!!!

Unfortunately, they are going back. I wear size 8.5 and sometimes 9 in sneakers. 8.5 was too small in my toes. I returned them for size 9 (in light blue as pink and black were unavailable) and they are too large. The arch support is uncomfortably pronounced. I have normal arches and don't need such steep support. The shoe tongue is all in one piece and sewn into the shoe itself. Basically, they are slip-ons. The style was a bit too senior for my age and taste. I thought I would be able to tighten the laces to make them fit, but the loops seem to be meant for decorations only and not for functional laces. It was altogether not the pair of sneakers I was looking for.

I have been wearing Vionic since they were called Orthoheel. I have never had issues with size or quality. I wear a 8.5 in sandals and 9 closed shoes. I ordered a 9, couldn't even get my foot in the shoe. Exchanged for 9 wide, they fit better but ran small. I gave up after that return.

Based on my other Vionic shoes, I was deeply disappointed in these shoes... hardly any support. It is a very soft shoe.

Come on vionic! Where’s the arch? Where’s the comfort squish? The heel felt good but nothing on the ball of the foot at all. Also, these were supposed to be wide, they were narrower than my regular asics. Returned

I have used the vionic Elation for the past few years, they no longer exist so I have to find a new shoe. Vionic has been perfect for my feet and bunion to enjoy Zumba. These were very flat, felt no support or arch. The sides of my feet during the entire class. Sadly, these are not for me, I'm still searching.

Got these in a 9.5 wide. Not wide at all. They are cute but felt very small, especially for a sneaker.
