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.
