Customer Reviews VIONIC Relax

Hideous. I could have overcome the styling if they had been incredibly comfortable, but the undersides of the straps irritated the soles of my feet. My feet slipped around on the silky fabric too. For reference I’m generally a 7.5M or 7.5W and the 7M fit well. I do like that the straps are adjustable.

Minimal arch support unlike previous vionic styles. And the Velcro closure was exposed and scratchy on top of my foot

I am returning the Vionic Relax Slipper because it is poorly made. I have been wearing this style since 2013 when the brand was called Orthaheel. At that time it was a superior product. Now I have to be extremely careful with this brand. Usually the problem is that the sole does not lie flat as is the case with the slipper I am returning. I might add that last year I showed my podiatrist a pair of Vionic sandals I bought in a department store. She had to add material to them so that they would be balanced. And this is from a company that stresses that their product gives the foot a leg proper alignment! I will try again because when properly constructed, you can't beat these slippers. I wear them everyday. They have been great for plantar fasciitis and even the torn meniscus in my knee. I just wish they would return to the quality in workmanship they once had.

I have a wide toe box, so I hoped the adjustable straps would give my toes more room. However, the sole was too narrow for my toes, so they just fell off the sides.

I wear size 6 and got a 6. True to size, but the fit was off due to the arch and the heel. My foot slid forward and down towards the outside of the sandal, even tho i have high arches. I found the velcro band a little tights and my feet didnt feel secure, so walking in them felt clunky and uncomfortable. Returning.

I liked these at first but the Velcro is so uncomfortable and scratches my foot every time I wear them. I wish I had t thrown out the box because I would like to return them.

Arch not in correct spot for shoe size

Not great on stairs. The slippers slipped forward on each stair step. Ill be shopping for a full cover slipper next.

Heavy. Hard... not soft and plush at all. One makes loud crinkle noise so going back.

These slippers were a letdown. I have a few foot and ankle issues, so I am most comfortable in footwear with firm arch support, even for house slippers. I have been wearing Birkenstock felt clogs (Amsterdam) as my house slippers for a couple of years, but they can be awfully warm and they are expensive. I had hoped these Vionic slippers would be a worthy summer slipper for wearing around the house and taking on vacation. While the sole seems fairly sturdy and the arch support is there - not spectacular, but there - my very first impression of these slippers was how cheap that fabric was! I was expecting something along the lines of a cuddly, velvety terry or fleece. This fabric reminds me of the very cheap faux fur on my cats' cat tree, which is junk! I've known $20 Isotoners too have a more luxuiorus fabric feel! I was able to adequately adjust the velcro to stay on my foot (some other reviewers complained they couldn't get it snug enough), but I still felt like my foot was slipping, due to the fabric. It doesn't seem like it would clean up very well, though I did purchase these knowing they are spot clean only. Long story short, for my purposes, I think I might do just as well with slippers from Target or Kohls.

After a couple weeks of use, the slippers are ultimately too hard and my heel pain hasn't improved. There is some arch support but my feel move too much and the slippers don't stay adjusted. Unable to return as I've already worn them.

The cushioning in these slippers crushes easily. They were tight to begin with, but got very loose and slipped on my feet quickly. NOT happy.

The sizing i really good on there, but no matter how I set the velcro, the faux fur is slippery, my feet slid out of them - usually at just the wrong moment & I would stumble. Can't have that.

I've heard good things from others about this slipper but if you have feet that hurt when arches in the shoes are too high - this one will hurt your feet. It was also a little too heavy for me. I felt like I was wearing shoes instead of slippers. Zappos was great with the return as always. I picked a softer slipper that worked better that was a different brand.

foot keeps slipping to side almost out of shoe.

The Dark Grey Zebra pattern was an incredible disappointment due to having completely different fabric from my old Tan Leooard pairs. This Dark Grey Zebra fabric is a faux fur. It is slippery, so walking in it slides around and off the arch support and footbed. The fabric has an unpleasant coarse feel to it, and the "fur" actually has a direction (like petting an animal in the right or wrong direction.) My old Tan Leopard pattern Vionic Relax Slippers had a comfortable fabric texture similar to terry, which was pleasant to the touch, comfortable to walk on, didn't slip, and gave perfect instant relief from my plantar fasciitis. I will say that the hook and loop adjustable design of the Vionic Relax model still made these the perfect size for my small but extremely wide 6WWW feet. I am still wearing my old ones everywhere in my home, which has tiled floor throughout, but I had hopes for a new pair. I have returned these.

I have brought these slippers for years but they have changed them, now they hurt my feet. I will be returning one pair. I was stupid and brought two.

I this slipper did not work for me. If I made it snug the seam on left foot would rub on my pinkie toe. If left a bit looser my foot would slip around. I rate it low because of seam on left slipper

These were very comfy until the soft part of the slipper rolled under and the scratchy part of the velcro rubbed the top of my foot. Darn it! I was excited to have slippers with arch support.

Other reviewers were correct. This is far too heavy for a house slipper. Not comfortable.

The slippers have Velcro to hold them to your feet. The right shoe's Velcro scraped against my foot. If I loosened it, the shoe was too big. Very disappointed in the quality control of a highly rate shoe company.

I had been searching for slippers with arch support, and really loved these slippers at first. They are cute, and I liked that they were adjustable, as they seem to run pretty wide, and I have average width feet. But after about a month they began to really hurt the ball of my feet, right where it meets the big toe. It got so bad I had to stop wearing them. Would not buy again.

Like other comments, this bedroom shoe is too wide for the average foot. I bought a similar one in a department store at Christmas. Since it was winter, I could wear socks with the open toe. But without a sock it falls off my feet. They need to do something about this shoe.

I have loved all of my Vionic shoes, mostly flip flops, but was disappointed in these slippers. I ordered them to use with socks in the winter, but because the velcro strap is back too far, the shoes slide right off my foot. I've tried to adjust several different ways, but still can't get them to stay on.
