Customer Reviews VIONIC Winny

It's hard to find cute shoes in a wide width, so when I saw these, I had to give them a try. The size itself was perfect and the size I always buy, 8W, but unfortunately, they sit higher than other sneakers at the heel and were very stiff, so even though the material is soft to the touch, these ripped up the back of my heels even while wearing socks. The material on the top of the shoe is also very stiff so it cuts into the toes and top of the foot with each step. Sadly, I can't wear these, but I did give them to my daughter. She wears a narrow width, but they fit her well and didn't rub her heel - made me even more disappointed that these made-for-wide feet weren't comfortable for me.

They shouldn't be ripping apart after six weeks, right?? They are very cute and comfortable but will be unwearable soon. (Yes they're dirty, but otherwise worn normally over the past six weeks). Really disappointing.

I bought this sneaker and did not notice that there was no cut-out for your ankle. The leather hits directly at the ankle bone and chafes when walking. I would like to exchange but unfortunately I did not discover the problem until wearing them around the house to break them in. Be sure to choose a design that accommodates your ankle.

Runs large compared to the pismo casual tennis shoes I bought ( pismo are very comfortable). These new Winny sneakers are rubbing the skin off of the back of my ankles. I'm going to continue to wear them for short periods of time to try to "break them in".

The sole started coming off the side after a few months. I've had them less than a year, and the whole thing has come apart. The picture is from only 8 months of use--and not even daily use. It's a shame because they're the most supportive and comfortable sneakers I've owned.

I am loving these sooo much, but they are extremely stiff. I have a knee issue and I am always in pain after wearing them. It literally takes me days to recover from wearing them. They are exactly what I wanted, but I can not afford the knee pain. I wrote to the company hoping for a return and credit. I hope they value me since I ONLY wear Vionic shoes and help me.

Like a couple of other reviewers, after wearing my new Winny sneakers for a walk around the block, I was limping by the time I got home from severe sores in both heels. They've got to redesign the heels! They didn't cause blisters - they gouged deep into my heels causing raw sores with excessive bleeding that took three months to heal, and here I am six months later and I have scars on both heels. They're not cheap, so I had to get gel heel inserts to cover the very stiff back part of the heels in order to wear them at all. I have many different Vionic shoes, and have never had this problem with any other styles.

I didn't realize after I started wearing these shoes that I had serious hip problems. These shoes really caused me to have bad hip pain.

Would not recommend. Very stiff shoe. I got blisters while trying to break them in.

There are no size 5.5 avaialbe almost across the board. Iit is very frustrating. I am usually a size 6.5 but for some reason I can only fit into size 5.5 with this brand and this is one of the few brands that have arch built in. Very frustrated.

Bought these to wear on vacation. Wore them around the house with no problem. Unfortunately after wearing them for a walk, the little seam at the rear of the shoe caused painful bleeding blisters on each heel. Love the arch support and the style! Just wish they were put together differently. Love my flip flops I've ordered in the past!

I bought these shoes at the end of September and the soles were disconnecting from the shoes in less than a month. I'm really disappointed because they are very comfortable, but falling apart.

I bought this to have a cute pair of everyday sneakers with arch support and because every Vionic product I own has been great. These were incredibly disappointing. On the right shoe where the front leather piece meets the laces, these have a design flaw. The hard leather dips into your foot when you walk. I wore these to the airport and by the time we got to our destination, my foot was so bruised and I was limping. I tried to put the shoes back on to come home at the end of our trip, but my foot was still so bruised, I couldn't even put the shoe on. It's only on the right shoe, so I'm not sure if I got a defective pair. It's so disappointing because for as expensive as Vionics are, you'd think you wouldn't have to worry about their shoes bruising your feet.

I love Vionic and have owned many different shoes of theirs for years. But I have to say these are terrible/ every time I wear them I end up with blisters! I've given them several tries and they are still stiff. I hate that I spent so much money only for them to go in the trash

I ordered this sneaker in black!! It was sent to me in white!! This has never happened to me before. I'm keeping the shoes because I like them and I already have a pair that are looking old. The box even said black but the shoes were white inside. Someone needs to be more careful when they are stocking.

I purchased the shoes in white. Its super cute however sizing is extremely off. I usually wear size 7 in Vionics. This one seemed like an 8. I had to return it!

I wanted to love these, but they lacked support for my feet and rubbed blisters on the heels. Very cute but sadly, do not work with my plantar fasciitis.

Within one month of wearing these casually - maybe 15 times, they started coming unglued at the sides. It is a stiffer shoe, but so cute! Not as comfortable as some other Vionic shoes I have, and I had to wear footies to prevent it from rubbing. Overall, I still really liked this shoe for the purpose I bought it - to wear with dresses and shorts.

I purchased a pair of Winny sneakers in April and worn them minimally. Initially, my heel was worn raw, but the biggest disappointment was when I looked down at my shoes in July and realized the rubber sole was separating from the leather upper. I would have expected MUCH better quality for the price of these shoes!

I've tried telling you over & over the material used to manufacture is hard & uncomfortable - where is the origin of the leather?

I returned these shoes due to poor quality especially for the price. The leather did not seem to be leather, but more of a thin, stiff, coated cardboard. The shoes slipped off of my heels which would, no doubt, have caused blisters had I kept them. Theses shoes are extremely disappointing considering I have been pleased with all of the other Vionic shoes I have purchased.

I returned these shoe due to very poor quality especially considering the price. They are not made of any type of leather that I've ever seen. They are very stiff and thin and the "leather" has a cardboard-like feel. The heel slips off because the shoe is so stiff. This is the first time I've been disappointed in the quality of a Vionic shoe.
