Customer Reviews VIONIC Bella

Bought 4 months ago already broken . Not repairable!

I really wanted these sandals to work. I thought I had finally found a pair of narrow flip flops. Unfortunately, they fit like any other pair of medium width flip flops. Because they were too wide, the felt heavy while walking. It was a challenge to keep them on my feet. There was a slight defect in the pair that I got, the strap on the right side of the right shoe was "misplaced" compared to the left shoe, which caused the strap to turn out slightly, exposing the cushioned underside of the strap. I would only recommend these shoes if you do not have narrow feet.

These sandals are so cute and I get lots of compliments on them. They are also so comfortable. Unfortunately, the material they use to line the footbed of the sandals is flimsy. It is impossible to keep clean and it has become lose and bunches up in the middle of the shoe.

I have worn Vionics exclusively for as many years as they have been around. I am tired of wearing flip-flops (only ones that suit my special feet) nevertheless--wear them I do as they are the one and only shoe that works. Until this year. I saved for months and finally had enough to buy 3 pairs--sure I was tired of same old--but I needed shoes. I can only surmise that these shoes are now made somewhere else where substandard materials are acceptable. They are different--no longer a longtime supporter--a bit squishy if you will. I tried over and over wearing them in the house hoping I was wrong--but no. My back hurt my arches ached and I packaged them up and sent them back. I have no idea where I will find my next shoes (tried every brand you are already thinking of) (but thank you!). Good-bye Vionic flip-flops--You are now just like every other product--cheaply made with substitutions unsavory. Don't tell me that they are the same--Not true.

I am a first time Vionics buyer. I bought the Bella toe in black after a foot injury. My PT told me my flip flops had no support & I should buy Vionics. So I did 2 months ago & there already falling apart! I thought for the price they would have held up much better. The lining that your foot goes on top of is peeling away and making lumps so it is uncomfortable to wear them now. I have a foot injury so I have to watch how I walk and with lumps in your sandals makes it hard. I'm soooh disappointed and feel like I wasted my money!

This sandal stretches to the point whereby it causes a very sloppy fit and thereby is hazardous to wear.

I got these as Mother's Day gift today is the second time I've tried wearing them due to the left shoe giving me a bleeding blister right at top between big toe and next toe it could be the thread on the thong material but I'm soo sad I can't use my lovely sandals like that what should I do?!

I bought these in a 8 narrow and they stretch out within 5 times wearing them!!! Have had other Vionic's in the past and loved them but not anymore!!! Would always tell friends and coworkers about them now I tell them to look elsewhere for the money.

Son muy cmodas y tienen buen soporte el defecto que acabo de descubrir es lo peligrosas que son en los pisos mojados. Mi esposo estaba lavando los pisos del beisman en casa y baje a ayudarlo en cuanto puse un pie en el piso mojado resbale peligrosamente y qued colgando del barandal de las escaleras... No las recomiendo para nada!

Well I read all the reviews and decided that the positive outweighed the negative and I am so sad I did. First the quality of leather is terrible. Looks like bad knock-off alligator skin. Tried them on and they felt good nice arch support correct size a little wide. Decided I would try again in a different color - order the cream thinking they could not mess up a neutral cream color. New shoes arrived and the cream were a little better but still really cheap looking pleather - know off alligator fabric. There was a saran like material coming out of the stitching which I could pull off - really weird. Decided a comfortable pair of flip flops that did not cause foot/heel pain was worth wearing ugly shoes. Have had them 2 weeks - worn only a few times. Terrible! The pleather has stretched so much that they no longer fit my feet- with them being wide to begin with this causes the arch support to not be in the right spot and actually hurts my feet. Also let me tell you - everyone who has mentioned the foot smell is not lying. I actually thought that they must have smelly feet and were blaming the poor shoe. I wear flip flips all the time and NEVER have had SMELLY Feet!! NEVER. These give off such a bad stink foot odor I would not wear them out in public. At first I was like 'someone's feet smell so bad!'. Went to my bedroom and was like 'OMG - it's my feet!!'. This is after only a few wears! The sole material is very hot and I noticed my feet sweating weirdly - again I have no history of foot odor or sweaty feet My feet run cold and I am usually freezing. AVOID THESE! I can not speak of the brand as these were my 1st. Because I exchanged they now say no items available to return for refund. Do not exchange - just return.

I made the mistake of buying 4 pair of this style shoe prior to trying them. The first day I wore these with in 2 hours I had a cut in the top of my foot. There is something wrong with the design of the toe separator where it connects to the top straps. I can't wear these unless I wear a bandaid on the top of my foot.

Two weeks ago I ordered a pair of sandles at least I tried to order them. At first when I entered my Discover card information along with security code it rejected it. I then entered another credit card information Master Card along with the security code. It accepted the information and said that my order had been place. That is the last that I have heard of the sandles order. So far my credit cards have not been charged for the purchase but whoever mans this site now has information on 2 of my cards. So do not enter any credit card information on this site!

Slipped off my feet easily and made it so the arch support wasn't in correct spot without gripping toes. That made a sore spot in my arch. Also you get the ugly toe print because of the soft material. Makes it look dirty even though it isn't.

I bought this flip flop about a month ago. I had no problems with them when I wore them for short periods. But when I wore them to walk in them longer I came home with blisters from the thong. I thought with the price I paid for this flip flop that this would not have happened. I am very disappointed and my feet are hurting from blisters.

I've worn Tide sandals for years and love! I ordered these to replace a pair of brown&black Orthoheal sandals to wear with brown dominated outfits. They are not as supportive as Tide sandals. The toe post wears a blister every time I've them since I've owned. I keep hoping that the'll 'break in' but it seems not since I've had them for several years...

I so wanted to be able to wear this sandal. Vionic was recommended by my podiatrist when I was diagnosed with a Morton's Neuroma in my foot. I found this style was a little more dressy that I could wear to work. Unfortunately after only wearing a short time I got a blister on both feet at the top of the thong. This happened with the other Vionic sandal I ordered as well. Had to send both pairs back. Very disappointed. I wear this style of shoe all the time and never have a problem. I do have a pair of Vionic sneakers that fit but can't wear the sandals.

I wanted to love these because of how much they cost... but I can't wear them because the strap is too tight around my foot. I wear a 7 wide and the sole is very comfortable and plenty wide but the strap was so tight I couldn't wear them even when I was sitting. I am going to try to return them.

My mom bought these and one was bigger than the other.

Many of the Vionic flip-flops now have a micro-suede footbed. This material does not hold your foot in place causing your foot to slide while walking. They are extremely scary to wear. The micro-suede footbed is dangerous! A man had to be the one who designed the fabric in the footbed of the shoe. If a woman did design the footbed she must have never spent a day walking in them. It is such a shame that many of the new designs now have this footbed. They are a great shoe when the footbed is rubber. Buyer beware!

I loved how these looked and initially was very comfortable. However after walking a little while I got a blister on both feet where the fabric meets the toe thong. I should be smoother than it was. I really wanted to love and keep them but sadly cannot.

I am a true lover of Vionic shoes. I bought these shoes and they only worked the first two times I wore them. After that all the support is gone. My feet feel as if they go flat. I cannot wear them due to this. The high tide shoe is much firmer and give a lot more support and comfort than this shoe. This sandal is not the one to buy if you are really looking for support in a nice sandal.
