Vionic TSV--Frumpy

tropics21 — Sat, 03 Aug 2019 11:59:29 GMT

Vionic's TSV today is not attractive at all. The square toe is not attractive and not at all what is fashionable today, but more importantly, it looks like a cheap mocassion one would find in Target or Walmart.

I have tons of Vionic but stopped buying. Their prices have escalated beyond belief and you are not getting what you paid for. As a person with a completely flat foot, these don't work.

Vionic could have come up with a comfortable moccason rather than ugly square toe, they did a few years ago, suede, and I have 4 pairs.

I don't think they are frumpy at all. I love moccasins and think they look cute with ankle pants, skinny jeans, and leggings. I'm not buying because as per usual.....they don't have narrow widths. I will say I don't care for the metallic leathers at all but love the suede leather.

@tropics21 i don't think they are frumpy at all !

i am a moccasin/loafer lover, and if it weren't for the fact that i now have enough shoes to last me the rest of my life, i would pick up a pair of those vionics!

They don't look frumpy to me and the toe does not look square either.

Will I buy them? No. Pretty expensive and I must try shoes on before I buy them.

Vionics are not right for my feet, but I think it's a nice-looking shoe.

I guess frump is in the eye of the beholder.👁

I'm not crazy about them...they are a little too flat for my taste but the purple ones really do look cute on Shawn with rolled up jeans.

ETA: The purple/violet are the only ones that I actually like but are already sold out in most sizes!

My reaction was they finally are selling a shoe instead of sandals. I also want to try on shoes before I pay for them, or these would be coming to my home. Frumpy, no not at all. Frumpy is in the eye of the beholder.

When 99% of what they seem to offer is either a wedge or sandal I was happy to see something that didn't look like it had less leather than a watch strap.

To each her own taste.

They look like a plain ol' classic mocc...not 'frumpy' nor are they high-fashion.

I definitely would not consider them to be "frumpy" at all. I'm not buying, mainly because I think the price is too high for what they are.

I don’t think they’re frumpy at all. I think it’s a classic casual flat shoe. I bought 2 pairs of the Vionic Mesa style 4 years ago when they were the TSV and I’ve worn them weekly since then. Both pairs are currently at my front door that’s how often I wear them. Considering the last ones have held up that well, I think this price is very reasonable.

I don't think they're "frumpy" at all. The only color that I might buy, purple, is sold out in my size, so it's probably I sign that I just don't need anymore shoes.

"not attractive", "not fashionable", "cheap moccasin", "ugly square toe"--gosh I guess you don't like them.

They look cute and comfy to me. Wish the price were a bit lower though.

@tropics21, the suede Mocs from 4 years ago, the ones with the chain? They were more expensive as the TSV than these. If memory serves, they were $92 or $96.

These shoes are a classic and I am always willing to pay more for a classic than a trend.

I work for a Podiatrist and custom made inserts submitted to health insurance runs 570.00. Even over the counter inserts| will run you about 80 dollars. The price is fabulous for these. Bought 2 pairs navy and black.

Unless I am looking at the wrong shoe I dont see a square toe.

It’s a moccasin. It’s exactly how a moccasin is supposed to look. I don’t think there’s anything frumpy about it, if you like moccasins.

But for me, I just don’t like moccasins at all, in any style. I much prefer loafers and some ballet flats for my flat, fall/winter, shoe options. I’ll wait and look for those styles.

Hah! Leah just used the phrase "rounded square toe".

It is an almond shaped toe, not square. I do not wear flats, so I am not interested, but it is a really nice everyday shoe that would go with most things.

I've simply never cared for shoes in this style. Period. With TSV's being presented ad nauseam, it's going to be a looooong day for me. Even Liam Bourke being the vendor won't help. LOL!
