Vionic Thong Sandals

Arianny — Tue, 06 Jun 2017 12:24:56 GMT

Hi all. I was wondering if any of you who have Vionic thong sandals wear them to and on the beach, and if so, how do they hold up, wearing them in the sand? Thanks!

I wear my Vionics on the beach all the time. They are great flip flops, I've had one pair for about 5 years now, they still look pretty good !

I wear mine to the beach & pool all the time. I've had them since we moved to Fl. 7 years ago.

I would buy a pair of High Tides in a heartbeat IF the footbed was the sueded material and not the plastic. I'll never buy another pair with the plastic footbed. When my feet sweat they slide all over in those, and I was thisclose to tripping and falling badly a couple of times; no more, and I tossed them. Love Vionics - live in them - but NO more plastic footbeds for me.

I've had the TSV in navy for awhile now. I am a 6.5 and ordered 7. They just fit. I've tried breaking them in but the built up arch kills me.

My sister is a true 7 and I'll see if she wants them. I have a feeling they will be too short.

@roxxy1 $59.90 I read the reviews of a handful that preordered and two said the straps were too open and wouldn't stay on. That and the plastic footbed, I'm going to pass.

@IMissSuperPoke, @roxxy1

Besides the plastic footbed issue which I've previously said was a no-no for me - My first two pair of Vionics were Tides. I was slippin' and slidin' all over the place and couldn't understand why (other than the obvious plastic thing) because they were "my size" - and all my subsequent sneakers from them were that size and fit perfectly. Once, in a Marshalls, I happened upon a cache of Vionic thong-types, and discovered my real fit in those is a full size down. They still were long enough, but they weren't "loose" anywhere. I have since also figured out that in their slip-ons, I wear the half size in between the flip-flops and the sneakers. Just for peoples' info who are thinking about Vionics.

I live on the beach and wear only Vionics. However, our sand is too deep to wear shoes of any kind. It's not a hard sand that you can walk on top of.

I have those in navy and animal print. I wear them often because they give me a much needed one inch boost in height. However, be warned that they are not as supportive as the original flat Vionics. These are more squishy and not comfortable for walking long distances.
