Vionics don't work for everyone--they are for specific conditions.  I'm an "under-pronator", meaning I'm the opposite of the demos they love to show in their presentations.  Who knew?!  Smiley LOL

I learned this after trying a pair of Vionics and having significant knee pain in the first few minutes of wearing them.  This led me to research the situation and now I know what types of shoes to buy for the best support for my ankles/feet.

Vionics have worked for me for many years with 

Plantar fasciitis.

100% Vionics

 

For my feet, they are worth every penny.

 

I tried Revitalign and found them to be a joke!  No support whatsoever.

 

That little triangle pillow, and I mean little, does nothing to support me at all.

 

Would never buy again.

I really think you have to look at individual styles within each brand.  I have Revitalign loafers that are wonderfully supportive and comfortable, yet other revitalign sneakers that are basically Keds (flat.)  Vionic quality is spotty IMO.

What suits you is so very personal.  I belong to two walking groups and I think all us have different brands we swear by.  Try some on in a store.  Once you find it you will know.  Maybe even insist on wearing it out of the store!

I tried Vionic a long time ag and I did not like how they felt on my sole.  
i do like revitalign.  But I think Clark's can be supportive as well as sketchers.
