I have been a fan of orthaheels for a while but im not sure qvc stil carries them. They do have shoes called "vionic with orthaheel technology." What happened to orthaheel?

Not sure what vionic is, but orthaheel is still on QVC. I think just haven't seen much because of the season, they currently sell mainly sandals. I think they have a TSV coming up soon.

Seems to me that Orthaheel is always on. I've gotten weary of the guy drawing the diagram on the leg of the model to describe ""pronation"". QVC carries many of their styles. I'm wearing a pair of the slippers right now!

It's a new branding strategy for Orthaheel, I believe. Originally the Vionic line of Orthaheel were sandals that had nubby footbeds and were marketed as hi-tech. They also were made using genuine leather for their uppers and had a higher price point. I bought a pair of the Vionic sandals and didn't care for the footbed material, as it just didn't feel good to my feet for some reason. Now it looks like all Orthaheels are being marketed under the Vionic label. But depending on how new styles look, this might solely be just a marketing thing. Time will tell...

"Vionic footwear with Orthaheel Technology combines the best of science with surprising style. The hugely popular Orthaheel orthotic technology provides biomechanically contoured support in contemporary designs. The stylish classics range from sandals to sporty and dress casuals and wedge heels, offering natural relief for all-day comfort. Vionic customers can go about their day with confidence and in comfort."

Sounds like Vionic is marketed as the more stylish and contemporary line from Orthaheel.
