Customer Reviews VIONIC Tide Tortoise

These are very pretty however very STIFF to walk in. This is the first problem I ever have had with all my vionic shoes.

The webbed fabric post on these rubbed my second toe raw even with limiting wear at first and giving it a rest and trying again. The arch support was terrific so I wish these would have worked out. Unfortunately I couldn't find any Vionic sandals with a smooth toe post instead of the webbed fabric. I'm thankful for the 30 day wear return policy.

I bought the TIDE ll in size 8 my normal size. It is too long in length but I keep them and now after wearing them for a couple months the straps are so loose they dangle on my feet. I checked the size chart and the 8 is supposed to measure 9.6" but my TIDE II measure 10.6". What gives?

I ordered these sandals on May 4th haven't had them a month yet and the sole came apart. I was extremely disappointed. They were comfortable to wear but the sole came apart. I would like a replacement please.

I love the idea of summer flip flops with good support and I own and love a few other Vionic shoes. Very disappointed that after a few months the glue that held the sole and the top part of the shoe failed making it impossible to walk in them as the sole would separate and fold under. Need a flip flop with support and would like to re-order but afraid quality will not hold up.

My right foot is slightly bigger than my left. When the shoes arrived and I tried them on the left shoe strap is tight. The right strap is loose. The loose strap shoe is comfortable. The too tight left strap is very uncomfortable. If the shoes are side by side it is easy to see the difference. It has loosened slightly but still cuts in. Definitely hate it.

This sandal is very comfortable with nice arch support. The length of the sandal was perfect but iit was so wide it flops around on my foot. I was surprised at the poor fit for the discription did not mention that they ran so wide.

Was excited to receive these. My friend has another thong style and loves them so bought them upon her recommendation. Good arch support. However I find the stiff web material used in the tong very uncomfortable. Unfortunately these are going back.

I love the look and feel of this sandal but the width was too wide for me and I do not have a medium width foot. I wish they made it in a narrower width.

I own a couple of pairs of Vionic sandals. They have always been extremely comfortable with excellent support. This particular shoe rubbed my right foot and made a blister. I had to send them back.

The flip flops are supportive and mostly comfortable however the strap is a little tight and doesn't stretch. I'm hoping after wearing them for a few weeks they will loosen up a little and not be so stiff...fingers crossed. Also they are noisy! My feet are/were not sweaty or wet and yet that awful embarrassing squeaky noise is ever present. There's nothing like announcing your presence with embarrassing sounds upon every step you take.

I love this Sandal! The arch support is perfect which is amazing! I've been a dedicated 'Reef' Sandal girl but my doctor recommended these Sandals for better foot support. I would have given them 4-stars... HOWEVER the straps are very TIGHT! If you don't have really thin feet they will be unbearable when you first put them on. The company recommends breaking them in slowly which I've been trying to do but I don't seem to be able to stretch the straps. I can only wear them for about15 minutes a day (so sad). They are pricey which makes this all the more disappointing. I'm going to have to take them to a shoe repair store to have the straps stretched.

The sandal does not fit right; it is too wide and the material seems very hard because the arch support does not land where it should be; think I should return it I like the look and would recomend the sandal with a good fit I ordered a wide but probably should not have

I wore these one day so far. They rubbed a blister at the top of my second toe. Hopefully when I get them broke in that will solve the problem.

So my friend who swears by these bought me one color (may have been QVC) and they were huge. Reordered for me one size down to an 8 and had to get the black leather. The way the nylon thread is finished on the underside against my foot is terrible... and it rubs hurt and was barely tolerable while we went from car to dinner in restaurant and back to car. I happen to have 'princess and the pea feet' so I took an emery board to try and smooth it out. It's ok... but hardly the quality VIONIC should be. I wish I hadn't been away that they hadn't been my only pair of sandals and that I had just tried to return them. When you get sandals in New England for a September birthday you don't know until far too late that they are poor quality. IMPROVE...

I love the shoes. I found them a little uncomfortable on the outside edge where the strap goes into the sole. Very disappointed as this afternoon the outside strap on the right shoe came disconnected from the soul. Please send me a new pair to replace these and I promise to return these to you. sincerely Mary Haley

I have feet that are on the wide side and bought this sandal because other reviewers liked the fit. The width and length are fine but the arch support is vicious - WAY too high! I have high arches that are healthy so I don't need the arch support but the arch on these shoes lifts all the outside edges of my feet off the ground. Instead of having my weight distributed throughout the sole my weight is actually concentrated in the center of my arch making for a wobbly walk and pain in the center of my arches by the end of the day. Very weird! Not comfortable! I will not be purchasing another pair. I recommend this sandal for people with weak arches. I'm guessing that if your foot can drape over the arch you will find a comfortable fit.

I bought these sandals for the summer but unfortunately had to return them. The toe post was short and was incomfortAble between my toes.

I bought this shoe a couple months ago. I have been very happy with this shoe in the past couple years but this pair I bought was different. It did not have the same arch support. I even had my cousin try it because she has had the same flip flops and been very happy with them. She agreed that they weren't the same as before.

I like this because it it hard to find a good flip flop with support. The only downside is that they are not light weight.

The arch is so high that the top of my foot chafes on the strap. I have worn these on and off all summer and still need Band-aids for them. I'm sure that at some point they will break in.

I have plantar fasciitis and these are great for it but the sole of the show is really ugly. I won't wear them out in public.

Per description I purchased these shoes 1/2 size down. I usually wear a 9.5 W and I sized down to a 9. The 9 was WAY too small and really tight on my foot. I had to return the shoe.The shoe looked well structured but I would not recommend it for anyone with a wide foot.

They are very comfortable BUT I have a heel spur or something after wearing these all day at a golf tournament. I am hoping this wasn't caused by the shoes but I've never had this pain in my heel before that has not gone away. I will try and wear them again for a whole day where I am walking and hope this doesn't happen again.
