Vionic sandals my first

LTT1 — Fri, 01 Jul 2016 18:50:54 GMT

I purchased my first pair of Vionic sandals and I have such good things to say about them!

They are bronze and style is "Afton"

My feet feel pampered in these.

Hi Loves...

Glad to hear you love your vionics! I love mine too, they are the only shoes I wear all summer. No more heel pain (:

@LTT1 ... Glad you like your new sandals! I bought three pair of them last summer, and they just kill my feet ... the thong that goes between your toes cut in and the straps give me blisters. Guess I haven't broken them in enough yet.

I just purchased some moleskin and will see if that helps. I really love the appearance of them. The ones you purchased are very cute.

@Yardlie@Azcowgirl

i mostly wanted to see if my body would adapt to their orthotic foot bed.

I have only been walking on these for leisurely-paced activities. I am doubtful that I could run anywhere in this style!

However, it is nice to have something pretty to slip on!

When fall arrives, I may get brave enough to try their shoes or boots! We shall see!

@LTT1 it's been my experience with both Vionics and Abeo shoes that the hard cork footbeds give me the best arch/pronation support over the softer (sneakers, rubber thongs) footbeds. Some people complain about "hard" footbeds in these shoes, but for me, the harder they are the more comfortable my feet are, especially after a few hours of walking and standing.

Vionics look interesting and I wish u had the money to try a pair. But, PLEASE, QVC, do not show hosts wearing thongs with deformed feet. Seeing toes going sideways is NOT attractive and is a channel changer for me and others. There is NO excuse for this. There are enough models and shoes that QVC sells that cover such medical problems.

PLASE QVC...........

@LTT1: Welcome to Vionic! I have bought six pairs of flip flops, and love every one of them. Fortunately I am able to wear these about six months out of the year. Unfortunately I haven't had good luck with their shoes. Two pairs have been letdowns, so I think I'll stick w/ sandals.

Living in Florida I do have one pair of vionic flip flops but I do not find them to be very comfortable so I tend more towards Clark shoes.I got mine at Bells and found that for the arch to hit me in the right place I had to go up a whole size.

It all depends on the shape of your foot and what your individual problem might be. For my high arches, Vionics are the be-all end-all solution. If I wear a pair of Clarks for a whole day, my plantar fasciitis is back by evening. I wish Vionics weren't as expensive as they are, but you can't put a price on pain relief. My feet hope that the Vionic company will be around for a long time.

ITA - I just wish that more Vionic shoes were more to my personal taste, color/fabric and design-wise. I would buy a wider variety of them if I liked the look of their offerings more, but I find many of them ugly as far as material (faux snake) and colors (many weird goes-with-nothing colors), and I will not buy any of the sandals that don't have the sueded footbed - I have found them to be literally dangerous for me as far as slippage.
