How is the foot bed on these? Is it plastic or vinyl so feet sweat? Or more like a leather or birki foot bed?

I've become disenchanted with these shoes. They are ridiculously expensive for a man-made sole and a couple of straps. I've found other brands with greater comfort but also with a molded footbed that I can find discounted. Spenco is one and is also sold by QVC. They have a smooth cork footbed that I find much more comfortable and shock-absorbing than Vionic anid I like the styles better. I've also gotten Taos shoes on Zulily which have a molded footbed and are much cuter than anything I've seen made by Vionic. A lot more reasonably priced too.

Like a lot of you.........the Yolanda remains to this day, my favorite Orthaheel of all time! You would think with such popularity, they would NOT have retired the style. Makes me think that orhaheel doesn't listen or care what their customers think. With that said, I do love the support of orthaheel shoes (I have a very high arch) and have ordered a few pair after Yolanda and will most likely order the TSV in blue and in cork. But if they brought back the Yolanda.....Katy bar the door.......I would order every color! I got the Yolanda when it as a TSV and got them in yellow and in gold and the ONLY reason I didn't get the other colors is because the metal trim was silver and I don't wear silver. But now I don't care what color the metal is..........PLEASE BRING THEM BACK!!!!

TSV SIZING - I USUALLY WEAR A 9W. DO YOU THINK I NEED A WIDE SINCE

THEY HAVE VELCRO CLOSINGS? DO NOT KNOW WHICH SIZE TO GET.

I can't answer your question acat......but I have decided against ordering because after watching 2 presentations for the sandal, they looked really wide on most of the models feet. So maybe they do run wide. And because they were too wide for the model's foot, they looked almost "clunky" on the girls. And I'm just not into this whole velcro thing. I have several pair of Orthaheel sandals already (none with velcro) that I really like, so if I want to add to my collection, I'll just wait for a new style that has no velcro. Smile Or wait until I can find another pair of my beloved "Yolanda" style in my size on E-bay!!

I decided to jump in. I got the gold cork and the coral. I figured with easy pay I could try both and at least keep one even though I love the colors of both. I have need worn Vionic sandals but it is time for me to start being more conscientious when I wear sandals because I love my high heels and wear them everyday to work so at least when I am home and hanging out I can give my feet a break. Hope I can adjust to them
