Customer Reviews VIONIC Tide RX Thongs

5 minutes wearing these and I want to cry they hurt the TOP of my feet so bad. reason: extremely narrow compared to original Tide and Tide II sandal, so if you can wedge your foot in there you'll have great arch support, but it's purely brutal on the top of your feet. the discontinued Restore sandal was almost as narrow, but they broke in quick. on the Tide RX, the straps are unforgiving rubber so they will never break in. so sad. been using vionics for over 12 years but they have nothing i can wear now for being too small, except the huge adjustable foot covering wrap which is basically a full foot covering shoe with open toes, defeating much of the entire purpose of a sandal. very sad these didn't work out, returning same day. not major, but the "charcoal" color on the website, as light as it is, is about 50 shades darker than what will arrive. it's not even remotely close to the website color. the actual sandal is literally the exact same very light gray as the Restore sandal's light gray, side by side the same color, and yes the sandals were marked CHRCL so i'm pretty sure I was sent what I ordered. they are just using a heavily doctored photo for the website. very deceptive and not acceptable if you actually care about working with your wardrobe. I gave two starts over 1 because some men actually have tiny feet and this shoe would work great for them, arch support wise, plus that rubber sandal strap is built on that thing like a tank, as much as it'll never wear in and expand even slightly, it'll never tear off the sandal or come apart like the Restore sandal straps do. can we plz just get a recovery version with the Wave sandal strap so there's something to buy here again???

These are great! I wear them around the house as a clean indoor slipper.

I've been wearing my Tide RX Recovery sandal for over a month and love how comfortable they are. When I first took them out of box I thought they looked like a man's sandal. I bought black in a women's size 8 1/2 medium, I am 65 years old and I'm always looking for comfortable sandals or shoes. At first I would wear them for short periods of time in the house, to break them in. It took my feet a little adjusting but now they are great! The footbed is very comfortable and the cushioning on the sole of the sandal is wonderful. I now wear them outside on a gravel driveway and in the yard which is kind of a rough terrain but these sandals do great in both areas. I also like that these sandals can be wiped or washed off and then wore inside too.

Love this comfy sandal to keep my spine in proper alignment at home. Runs slightly large as all Vionics do, but true to my usual Vionic size 9. Great cushy yet supportive foot bed. The non-adjustable strap is a little loose on my flat-ish, bony, bunion-y feet, but ok enough to be worn around the house or for very short walks. Tried to wear on a walk around the block and got a small blister from strap movement. I took off a star for the high price for a recovery sandal that is probably totally spit out of a machine.

They are so comfortable. I have a wider foot and they are perfect. Originally bought as indoor sandals, now I'm buying a pair for the outdoors. It's like you're walking in air.

LOVE my new Black Tide RX Recovery Sandal! The support in these scandals is amazing and so comfortable. I'm seriously considering buying a few more pairs in the NEW colors Vionic is now offering.

Very happy with this shoe. I need the support or my legs and back start to hurt. These are a great replacement for tooling around the house and yard. Very happy with my purchase. Just a little to expensive to buy a few pairs.

I bought these to fill a void for cool looking beach slip ons. Think they'll do the job. Comfortable.

I received my order yesterday. They are amazing! I am buying a second pair!

I bought these hoping to replace the beach noose flip flops from years ago. My foot is narrow to medium and there was too much room. I will return these

The textures part under the heel hurt my foot, especially if I was standing still.

I am a big Vionic fan and wear the High Tide 2 for arch and heel support. I own over 15 pairs, wear daily on walks and to the pool in Southern Calif. The High Tide 2 was retired so I ordered both the Restore 2 Recovery Toe Post and the Tide Rx Recovery. Both had nice arch support, however heel bed was way too low and bouncy resulting in significant back pain, hip pain and knee pain. I work in the medical field. This is a bad design for a shoe. Need more heel support......anticipate more people will end up w back and knee pain
