Customer Reviews VIONIC Candace

These were perfect. So supportive and held up through rough usage all summer, plus traveling.

I really liked these sandals, however, they were still way to wide for my narrow foot. When I cinched them down, it pulls my foot to one side and there is very little adhesion going on with the Velcro because I had to tighten them a lot. I love the style and look, but they just don’t work for me.

I have severe bunions, hammer-toes and a cross-over toe, so typically, I can't wear closed shoes and live pretty much in sandals. These are terrific -- there is a comfortable opening for my bunions and the arch support is very much there. I put them on and wore them for the day. Extremely comfortable; I love these sandals. They aren't too funky-looking; I would wear them with a dress. I may even go back and get them in other colors; I got navy. They are simple, straightforward sandals and for my feet, just perfect.

I have problem feet and tender skin, so my needs are very particular, and my chances of finding comfortable shoes is very slim. Still, I keep trying, especially as my current shoe collection is wearing out and is no longer comfortable. The adjustable velcro straps help with finding that perfect fit. The fabric straps are a little different for me, and the ankle straps feel higher than what I'm used to - they feel a bit like a cuff - but I think I am okay with that. The design is basic but classy. I got a couple pairs in the larger of my sizes (I wear 7-7.5, so I got these in 7.5) and tried both M and W widths. To my surprise, both felt pretty great on my feet. I am keeping the M width one (red) and returning the W width one (black) really only because I found another pair of black sandals and don't need to have too many black sandals in my little closet. I like the vibrant red color of the red sandals, as well. I am hoping these last a long time and keep my finicky feet happy for many summers yet to come.

I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THE NAVY TO COME BACK INTO STOCK AND NOW IT HAS! THE BLACK IS JUST PERFECT! AND I AM SURE THE NAVY WILL BE AS WELL. THE ONLY QUESTION IS ....DO I GO FOR THE CHERRY? I HAVE JUST RECENTLY REALIZED I HAVE BEEN WEARING MY SHOES TOO SMALL, BUMMER. NOW I AM BUYING THE CORRECT SIZE 9.5 FOR SANDALS AND A LOT OF TIME A 10 FOR THE HIGH HEEL WEDGE AND SOME CLOSED TOE SHOES. WHO KNEW? BUT MY TOES ARE SO HAPPY TO HAVE ROOM TO MOVE. WHO CARES WHAT SIZE IT IS IF THE FOOT FEELS GOOD? SO I CHALLENGE YOU TO GET THE SHOES THAT FEEL THE BEST. ZAPPOS IS THE PLACE TO SHOP BECAUSE THEY LET YOU FIND THE CORRECT SIZE AND NEVER COMPLAIN!! THANKS, ZAPPOS!

Comfortable simple sandle

These look dressy enough for most purposes and are great for someone with bunions on the big toe, since the straps don't touch the bunions.

Comfortable for my plantar facitis

I love the Vionic footbed -- it gives excellent support. I have really high arches, and it seems like only Birkenstock and Vionic have figured out how to fit my foot!

Nice fit, except my foot was too wide, so I returned. Excellent arch support.

Nice shoes but strap across the front of my ankle pulls too much for me no matter how I adjusted it. Nice arch support.

My foot tends to be more on the narrow side, and the velcro closure on these just wasn't meant for that size foot. Too bad they didn't make it in a narrow either. I ended up ordering the Aetrex Emilia instead, and love it!

I kept these and had my cobbler shorten two of the straps on each shoe as they were too generous once I adjusted them. The soles are flimsy so the arch feels like it collapses and balance is thrown off. If they were made with the Tide style sole I’d be as thrilled as I am with my 8 other pair of Vionic’s.

I sooooo wanted to love these shoes. The arch support is awesome but all the metal buckles and stitching rubbed my feet the wrong way. So disappointed.

I really wanted to love these sandals since they are super cute and quite comfortable on my plantar fasciitis. I generally wear a 10.5 in open toe shoes and an 11 in closed toe. Unfortunately, like many shoes they do not come in a 10.5. I ordered the 11 first. They were a bit too long, and the silver buckle that is on the inside of the ankle really bothered my ankle bone. I returned them for the 10.5 and the silver rings were comfortable, but I felt like my feet were rolling to the outside and I was going to twist an ankle. I never considered ordering a wide as I do not have wide feet...just long ones. I wish they would have worked. If I didn't have the buckle discomfort I would have probably kept the 11s.

i wanted Teva-like shoes that can get wet. These would be great except the velcro for the ankle strap is so far over, it's too tight to wear comfortably. Need to return, sadly

First time I've tried on Vionic brand. I love the footbed, but the style of this sandal hit my left little toe and right big toe in the wrong way, would have been very uncomfortable after a few hours. I returned them. I wasn't crazy about the style but was looking for an "active sandal," and I will try another Vionic style.

I wear a size 5 and these felt much too large. The style is cute, but they were too long and too wide.

I really wanted to like this sandal, but the straps were so stiff, they cut my feet; the foot bed was comfortable, but too long and a bit too wide (I wear a 7.5 M or B); then my husband nixed them on style, and I had to agree, so I sent them back. Others may have better luck, but the pair I received were not for me.

The straps were stiff and unattractive. The shoe bed felt comfortable, although a bit longer and wider than I'd like. I wear a 7.5 M, and the shoe just didn't seem to fit. I am returning these.

These were very cute and the arch support fine. Ultimately, the ankle strap and ring hit me in a weird place. It was only a minor irritation, but I thought it would get worse over time.

I really like these sandals. The problem is at the top strap. Where you pull it snug, the material near the ring where the strap slides through, is rough. After wearing for only ten minutes, my baby toe was hurting from the abrasion. Sorry, but the have to be returned.

I bought these to have a pair of sandals that didn't bother my plantar fasciitis but sadly have to return them. They metal ring rubs the area by my little toe and while they have great arch support, they actually give me heel pain.

Good Vionic footbed and support. BUT the metal connectors rub against the ankle. I have MANY pairs of Vionics and depend on them to keep my plantar fasciitis under control. I sure wish they would make a good sport sandal. The last pair I had (Muir) also fit poorly.

The arch was too close to my heel. Very strange fit!
