20 Best Flip Flops Plantar Fasciitis (2023 Updated)

I wear these sandals every day (I now have three pairs). They are the most comfortable sandals I have worn in a very long time. They are plastic and I am amazed that I like them so much. They are very supportive because they conform to my feet.

It is like walking around in your own tracks in warm soft smooth sand. and, maybe best of all: THEY ARE MADE IN THE USA!!.

Had to get these on order of podiatrist who forbade me from ever weary cheezy flat flip flops again! I looked at more expensive ortho-flip flops, but opted for these as a trial. I wore them for two weeks straight on a beach vacation – in the sand, in the water, walking through town.

They did a great job of supporting my feet and were pretty comfortable. The toe strap was a little thicker than I was accustomed to – but it never caused a blister or broke the skin. I loved the fact that I would wear them while shelling in knee deep water and they still look good as new! I would recommend and will buy again.

I chose the black color.

I ordered these because my old pair finally gave way and had no arch support. I have horrible plantar fasciitis so needed a pair that would really support my arch. These did the trick! Felt the support the moment I slipped them on.

As for fit: I am a woman’s size 8 (US) not wide so I ordered a size 8 in these sandals since others said they fit true to size. Well they fit EXACTLY to size. Meaning they are probably a half size smaller than what we expect in the US.

Since they fit and are not too tight and my toes are not hanging off I am keeping them however I will order a second pair one size up just in case.

Arch support in flip flops? Yes please! These flip flops fit comfortably, even with my high arches and they’re attractive. A year after receiving them, they’re still intact, even though my 60-pound border collie mix drags them out into our back yard every chance she gets and tosses them around.

Not only have they survived Daisy’s idea of a good time, they don’t even show any tooth marks. And if she drags them in mud, a favorite game, it wipes right off. Can I give them 6 stars?.

I started wearing the Tide sandal back when it was Orthaheel. I know they like to act like these are good for flatter feet and pronation, but I have an extremely high arch yet very compressible feet, so some amount of arch support is critical for me.

Honestly, Vionic arch isn’t high ENOUGH for my arches. I’ll wear down the footbed except for the arch. And when they changed to Vionic, they started wimping out on the footbeds, plus many different styles had horribly uncomfortable straps.

And if your have high arches, you can probably ignore any “break-in” instructions and be totally fine with footbed straight away…. Just be mindful that straps won’t rub. They will stretch. My Orthaheels have had the paint peel off the straps.

Anyway, I find these straps comfortable at the outset, and I like that the sole is not brown but is a nice light color. I “mostly” wear a size 9 in shoes, measuring just over 8. 5. In these sandals, I wear size 8.

In boots, to compensate for custom orthotics, I often wear a 10. These are also a good toe shape for me, as my toes aren’t very tapered. Since your arch doesn’t flatten as much with weight in these as other shoes, you’re less likely to have your toes push over the front edge.

So size accordingly, but I find these fit consistent with the brand. They do seem to have a smidge of toe spring, which I hope flattens with wear. I already have MTP joint issues, and toe spring is not a good feature for me.

But in general, I’ve always found this brand to stretch out just a bit with wear. And my feet don’t stretch shoes – usually shoes just compress my flexible feet. So the materials have some “give”.

These shoes are really comfortable. After wearing these shoes I can’t go back to my other flip flops. I have regular feet so these felt a little wide at first. I highly recommend these shoes for anyone who wears a wide width and has trouble finding shoes that fit.

For those who do not wear wide width shoes, they take a little getting used to. After wearing Vionic I have noticed that most other flip flops tend to be more narrow and flat, giving the wearer less support.

Vionic figured you support and comfort you need if you’re walking in them all day.

Ordered these in Toffee and they were perfect. Then ordered a pair in black. When standing in them the straps are not touching the top of my feet. There is nothing to hold the shoes on my feet, walk right out of them when taking a step! Obviously returning.

I have five pairs of Vionic flip flops I’ve worn for years, never a defect like this.

My go to flips used to be Reefs but when SOLE came out with flips I got excited. SOLE seemed to be sold out in my size every time I checked, so I kept buying other brands. Then I tried the Catalina last year and wow what a difference! They are much more comfortable and supportive and a perfect fit in my size, 12.

I am used to sizing up because no one ever gets it right. SOLE gets it right. A 12 is a 12 and fits! The straps are a little snug at first but if you wear good quality flips this is normal, they loosen with time and fit like a glove.

I am 66, and grossly overweight at 300lbs+ but these Catalina’s give me amazing support all day long.

I am about to order my 5th or 6th pair of these flips so I have been wearing them for about 3 or 4 years now. I love them. I remember my first pair. I described them as ordering a new pair of feet. I try to order two pair a year and wear one pair out and about and one pair for inside the house.

I think you will love these if you try a pair. I recommend, if you wear a half size, to go up to the next full size for a good fit. Customer service is also great. Last year during the height of the pandemic, we had a pair get lost in shipping.

SOLE made it right and sent me another pair when it was not their fault in the first place.

This is probably my 10th pair of sole shoes/insoles. I had an older pair of sandals that were amazing, but the strap finally broke. That model was no longer made so I purchase a pair of Baja Flips and Costa Flips because I was weary of the changes in the strap material.

First let me start with the good: The traction, footbeds and overall quality are amazing. They are still the best sandals I’ve found for every day use and they really keep my feet feeling good event after huge days of walking and being on my feet.

Now the not so good: the material used for the straps in the baja flips just doesn’t cut it. The material chafes if you sweat (hello summer in the midwest) and I’ve had some real blistering issues. I love them and I will definitely keep and wear them because they look great, but unfortunately the straps limit me to short walks or when I know I won’t be moving a lot.

For a few years, I suffered with a chronic condition in my feet that caused terrible pain. I was afraid I would end up in a wheel chair at some point. As an answer to prayer, I discovered Telic shoes and information about dietary changes I needed to make.

Between wearing these shoes and changing to a mostly plant-based diet, my feet were healed. Turned out that seafood was a primary cause of the problem. I still have pain if I overuse my feet by standing or walking too long, but the difference in the pain level when wearing Telics compared to regular shoes is very noticeable.

Because Telic shoes are very shock absorbing, they also relieved bursitis in my ankles, knees, hips, and lower back. One recommendation I have for ordering the Telic flip flop is to size down one size unless you have a thick foot.

They run long, but have a snug fit. When I buy according to the size chart, the extra length in the Telic flip flop sometimes causes the toe of the sole to catch and roll under. I’ve never fallen when this has happened, but it does cause me to stumble For anyone considering buying the closed toe Telic, this style runs short.

That is, unless they have made adjustments since I bought mine.

4 shiny stars for sure. If I feel like I need more support on those busy days I slip on a pair of telic brand slippers rather than the good old mushy rubber oofos. Telic brand slippers have a more textured surface and good for me if I think it might rain or drizzle.

Oofos brand slippers really get slippery if it gets wet with rain. It is way too slippery for safety or comfort. So would recommend having both brands on hand. Both brands absorb the shock from long distance walking and got rid of my plantar fasciitis.

Thank Jesus! Recently on a trip to Japan and walked an average of 10 miles a day for 2 weeks. These babies worked like a charm. I was dead tired for sure but still no plantar. It is a miracle! My other half wore telic slippers for 5 minutes and took them off saying it felt too pokey.

He hated them and opposite of my experience. Perhaps his feet are too sensitive like a baby’s bottom? My feet probably like a tough cave woman, idk. lol.

If you are lucky enough to have good feet with nice, curved arches these sandals will feel fine. If you are Not lucky enough to have excellent, arched feet but, rather, sad, fallen arches/flat feet with little ankle movement these sandals are what some people call a “Godsend”.

I’ve bought them in 7 different colors and wear them EVERY day. These sandals are what the foot doctor calls ‘ accomadative’. They are not meant to try to correct any deformity. Just for relief & support.

That’s exactly what I get. I take a shower and wash them while I’m in there so they’re always clean to put on. You will not believe how great they feel. My feet are actually a size 9 but I wear a size 10 in shoes (because of my wide feet).

I bought 2 pairs in a size 10. They are OK but a tad long. The other 5 are in a size 9 and they are a freakin’ perfect fit. I can walk over rocks & on cement, for the first time, without pain! Do Not Hesitate to, at least, buy one pair.

Dropped these at Goodwill the day after they arrived. They bore no resemblance to the Spenco Breeze sandals I love. No heel cup, hard as rock, clunky fit. Worse, nonreturnable as on ‘final’ clearance.

Waste of $$.

I have problems with my feet & flip flops have never been comfortable. That’s all changed with these!! The arch is high enough that I can literally wear them all day. Love them!!

These are really cute! I bought them for a gift for a friend. Sized well.

This pair of slippers fit great! It is my third pair in the past 5 or so years. The velcro straps make adjustments easy for each foot, and the raised orthotic arches make wearing these sandals around the house very comfortable.

I only wish the company would resume making the blue color sandal for women, or another pretty color. This was the color of my first pair of Dr. Comfort Kelly sandals that I purchased for my house slippers.

Black gets to be boring!.

I bought these sandals as extra pair to some I already had. After being diagnosed with posterior tibial tendonitis in my left foot/leg which caused a now chronic foot problem, I have to wear shoes with orthotic inserts and always have to have something on my feet.

These sandals are a lifesaver for around the house, so I pretty much have them on all day, very comfortable and give the right support. Highly recommend!.

Because of serious health issues, I could not wear other sandals and still maintain my balance. I spent so much money on other sandals. Ortho, form fitting, every kind at any cost—-nothing worked. I would cry from pain, and lack of balance.

I use a walker, as a fall would be critical. We have been running my one pair of DRC sandals through the washer to keep them fresh and I have to wait til they are ready. I am so afraid of something happening to them, I am buying a second pair and a third when I can.

I’ve loved Okabashi since I found and tested some a number of years agos from a local drugstore. Because I could not find these a later point I tried another brand sandal and while they were nice they gave me persistant calluses.

So, I tossed those and ordered these, and am very happy-even tho’ I’ll be wearing them with toesocks soon because cold weather is coming. For someone with a SLIGHTLY wider foot that doesn’t necessarily need a true C or D width, the ML size was a blessing! And this color-totally fits me!.

I have worn these flip-flops for about 12 years now. They last nearly forever but I do a lot of hard work, driving and boat fishing with him. So they are being strained all the time. About every three to four years my right one breaks between my big toe and my next toe.

That’s how sturdy they are. So, before they discontinue them, I’m going to make sure I have a lifetime supply! They’re absolutely awesome! They massage your foot, they are work horses, you can wash them off.

Your foot is secure. I love them.

I’ve only had them a few weeks but so far so good. I needed sandals I could wear in public showers and these are sturdy enough for that and just generally good pool shoes. They have a little molding for the feet and are a little heavier/ sturdier feeling than regular flip flops.

Seems like a company I want to put my money towards.

I have been wearing this style of Clarks sandals for years!! I probably have bought more than15 pairs in various colors through the years. Every spring I buy at least 2 pairs in new colors. They are great and last forever.

I buy new ones every spring which I keep for nicer occasions while still wearing the older ones for recreation, yard work, etc. They are extremely comfortable; the piece between the toes is very comfortable.

They are easy to wear immediately after pedicures in that the straps do not touch the nails on any of the toes. They have just enough cushioning on the soles to be very comfortable and supportive, but yet flat enough for easy walking.

They are a part of my spring and summer every year!! Price has increased recently but I find sales to buy them because I have to have a couple of new colors every spring. Very highly recommend!!.

I just bought my second pair after having a lovely pink pair and being totally in love with them. If I could afford it, I would buy these in every color!They have good arch support, yet they are cute and sporty.

As a member of the Cloudsteppers, their cushion definitely fits the namesake. And unlike many flip flop straps, these don’t rub against your foot. The velcro adjustable strap is a wonderful feature that is great for any size foot (or changing size!), and actually is a snazzy fashionable feature.

Can’t say enough good things about it. My 3 year old pair have really held up. Bought the turquoise pair because the color is dreamy. Love them!.

I purchased my second pair of these sandals in the early spring. I’m late writing this because of health issues and a fractured vertebra in my back. It especially hurts to write this because my Doctor told my I couldn’t wear flip flops but when I said I wore Clarks he said those were ok.

Anyway, after wearing them for awhile I noticed my feet smelled horrible! Then I noticed it was the shoe that smelled bad. so I washed both very well and it kept happening. This didn’t happen with my other pair of these same flip flops (which I went back to wearing).

I had worn them out though so the support needed was no longer there. I thought it was my feet until my cousin told me hers did the same thing and she had to get rid of them. I really hate this because I love these flip flops! I don’t expect anything I just want to ask Clarks to please return to the material your previous years of flip flops (Breeze Mila’s) had.

I have a brand new pair that I can’t wear and am now hesitant to buy Clarks. I also have an ankle boot that I got several years ago that are still wonderful and do not have the smelly foot affect.

I purchased these flip flops two weeks ago and it is my first time purchasing vionic footwear. I have fallen arches and this footwear really adds support to the arch area. They are comfortable to wear for me, but not for an extended period of time (over 5 hours).

They are very pretty and are very stylish depending on what you desire to wear. I scored as these shoes were on sale in my size at the store. I feel that vionics run large in size for me. Generally I wear size 7, but a 6.

5 size was perfect for me (at least in this style).

I tried a regular width Vionic flip-flop (not sure which style) in the store and it was only very slightly too narrow so I felt confident ordering a wide. This flip flop is really cute so I was very disappointed when the foot bed around the mid foot wasn’t wide enough for me.

This also caused the outside strap to lay awkwardly on the top of my foot. My left foot is a standard wide and my right foot is just slightly wider but these sandals did not fit either foot so I had to return them.

I loved these shoes and hated to send them back, but they were too small. I ordered a 9 wide width and could barely get my foot into them where the big toe is. It felt like there wasn’t enough height between the shoe and the toe strap.

I wanted to order a half size bigger but they were out of that size so I had to return them. If you have a wide foot, and especially if your feet swell, I would order a half size larger.

Please know that this is NOT a paid or sponsored review – it is mine and relative to my experience wearing my first pair of Archies. I spent a lot of time and lots of $$$$ buying name-brand flip-flops and summer sandals, none of which helped me as much as these do.

I was unable to stand for more than a few minutes at a time, had pain radiating down one leg, have bad knees. too much to put here, but these gave me back mobility and the ability to stand and be comfortable for more than a few minutes for the first time in several years.

The ability to stretch the straps also works so well as my feet are medium-width and swell a lot. the Archies have never felt like they’re strangling my feet! And when the swelling goes down, they are not too loose! Don’t know how it works, but it does! I also bought a pair for my daughter – she has slender feet – and they fit her well and provide much-needed support.

As their advertising shows, these do have a medium height, firm (NOT HARD) but flexible arch support; if you don’t do well with arch supports, they may not be for you. The feather weight of these, in addition to the strap placement, really does prevent my feet from struggling to keep them on.

No crimping toes to keep them from flying off! No strained/fatigued muscles and tendons on the top of my feet! I am currently of heavy build and have been wearing mine, EvErY DaY and ALL DAY for over a month, and there is absolutely NO sign of wear, no flattening of the sole, no change in flexibility, no cracks.

NoThInG! With that much use, you would also think they would be smelly, but nope! I wash them with my deodorant soap and water, dry them with a towel, and no smell! To Archies: PLEASE make insoles for shoes and/or different styles of shoes with this base as the sole.

It is so nice to be relatively pain-free and I definitely want more options! =).

I now own 6 pairs of Archies, the coral being my newest addition, & I can’t express enough how these have saved my feet and back since the first week I bought my 1st pair. It did take a little time to get used them but BELIEVE ME, it’s been so worth it! Now I can get them to form fit within a day or 2 bc I have basically mastered the gentle stretching of the straps & the more you wear them the better they feel & fit! I have a bad back & can’t stand/ walk too long due to arthritis but I am back to being active like I used to & in less overall pain bc my Archies are SO comfortable.

hey have the perfect cushioned & flexible footbed You must follow the directions on how to properly & GENTLY stretch the straps & toe piece for them to fit quicker than just wearing them in but I assure you it’s totally worth it just READ THE DIRECTIONS & be patient! You will want to buy 5+ more in all of your favorite colors like I did! I used to get so upset & miserable bc I love to cook & walk my dog for at least 15-20 min 2-3x a day & I just couldn’t as much bc my feet & back would hurt so bad but when I say these sandals are a lifesaver I MEAN IT & I am so grateful I gave these a chance! Also, it’s important to note that their customer service team is on point & attentive, I needed to return/exchange a pair & they were quick to respond & to me & I received my replacement quicker than expected.

Being in the customer service industry I value great products & communication. Thank you Archies for improving my quality of life!.

I was diagnosed with Plantar Fasciitis almost three years ago. Since then, it has been a struggle to find sneakers that fit and helped relieve PF, which none did fully. Then, because of the firm structure of shoes for PF, I developed a bunion, which I had never had previously.

I was on to another unsuccessful search – looking for shoes for PF that wouldn’t cause even more bunion pressure/pain. No sneaker fit the bill, even those which my podiatrist and the specialized running store recommended for having both conditions — since they all had overlays in a place that pressed on the bunion.

So many shoes were bought and returned or quickly never worn! Then I saw an Archies ad, saw a neighbor wearing them, asked about them, and ordered a pair. I now slip off my expensive orthotic mesh sneakers the minute I get home from my daily walk, and wear the Archies the rest of the day/night.

I have arch support for PF and no pressure on the bunion. I now have three pairs. I took two pairs on a week long beach vacation and wore one pair for daily hour-long walks in the sand, and the other for out and about.

My feet never felt better. And the sandy ones cleaned up like new! Thank you!!.

If you’re like me, you’re wearing what is now called “sports sandals”every minute that you can until the snow flies. (Flips are enhanced flip-flops/thongs and slides are slip-ons. ) That means you’re trucking around town, maybe just fitting in a mile walk around the neighborhood in that free moment, or watering pots on the patio and transplants in the garden.

Taxing the kids from lessons and friends. If you’re dragging around a watering can in the mornings or like to dip your toes in along the shoreline or the beach on the way, you’ll find that the flip stays on comparatively better than the slide! Neither style is perfect or completely safe from ankle twisting once wet, but I would choose the flip if you have any chance of rain showers, walking path puddles, or mixed days.

A wet slide means your toes hanging are out over the end. Waiting for my slides to wear out and will replace them with ONLY the flip. I have both and my slides are just turning into bedside slippers.

For more active out of doors – not just feeling good after you’re done on the track, try the flip. I’m thinking about going with the whole sandal but the problem with that like Keens, once you get a piece of sand or a pebble in there, it’s hard to get out, esp if your arms are full (kids, bags, or beach gear).

I will say wet (even rain shower), Hoka flip is orders of magnitude more stable than Ooofos sandals of any style. Not as cushy as Ooofos, but immensely more stable and just as therapeutic for active tired legs.

Birkenstocks can’t get wet under any circumstance unless it’s the molded EVA and even then that doesn’t stop your toes from sliding up over the edge which is a real danger. The next thing you know you have twisted an ankle.

I wish HOKA would think more about sandal stability in the foot bed becomes inadvertently or intentionally wet. I’m not talking about water sports just every day variable summer conditions. Ok HOKA? Lastly, I will say only go with the waterproof hikers for winter.

I wear a woman’s size 11 or an Italian size 41 or European (Birkenstock, Geoxx, etc. ) size 42. I’m usually in the 8-9 range in men’s sizing. These are men’s sized and the description said that they run large, so I ordered a size 8.

The shoe is a tiny bit too short, if I was going to wear these for long walks it would be a problem and I’d exchange them. I bought these to be around the house shoes so it’s fine that my toe on my bigger foot touches the front edge and my heel touches the back edge.

Since it doesn’t come in half sizes I know that for my purposes these are fine and a whole size bigger would be too much. Also I don’t feel that they’re too wide at all. I wear a medium width regular shoe, narrow Birkenstock, or about a B width.

The Hoka shoes don’t flop around, they’re really just about right for me, so I don’t know why some people find them to be very wide. Anyway as for wearing them, these sandals are like walking on a marshmallow cloud.

The sole is soft and spongy, in a good way. They feel totally stable, solid and secure on. They’re so comfortable that I really enjoy wearing them quite a bit. I got them in the mango shades (amber yellow/shell coral) and the colors are very cheerful, they make me happy.

My podiatrist suggested the sandals because this is the type of shoe I like to wear around the house, barefoot in summer, with socks in winter, but the athletic brands don’t offer much of an arch support.

These have an arch support and it’s a bit higher than I like, but not so much that when I take them off it’s a relief. I like the height of the Birkenstock arch support, it’s perfect for me, and I find Vionic to be so high that taking their sandals off is a relief.

Hopefully those details will be helpful for someone who’s unsure how these will fit and feel. Finally for you cat lovers, I have noticed that certain types of “plastic” shoes are really appealing to cats.

My previous cat couldn’t resist a pair of Haviania flip flops, he would chew them up and destroy my sandals as badly as a dog would. So my word of warning is, my current cat loves to chew on my Hoka slides.

So far he has only bitten them, but I caught him trying to gnaw on one the way a dog would. So if you have a cat, be mindful where you put these when not wearing them.

I have flat feet and plantar fasciitis, and needed a comfortable pair of flip flops that wouldn’t aggravate poor broken feet. These came with good reviews, and I bought my first pair 11 months ago. I was harder on these than most people would be, and wore them all day, nearly every day , at work and at home.

I can say that these are the single most comfortable flip flops out there, and I have tried a lot of them. After 11 months, they are still serviceable, but my weight has compacted the footbeds somewhat and stretched out the straps just enough to make them too loose to be secure for day to day wear, but they are still super comfortable and quite serviceable for taking out the trash and the like.

I ordered a second pair and got them today, and realized just how much I’d loosened them up in nearly a year of constant wear. The footbeds are amazing, with more than enough support to keep my messed-up feet from hurting even while standing for a long time, but still cushy and bouncy like no other sandals I’ve tried.

Unlike most flip flops out there, you can walk in them just as lightly and fast as with a pair of Hoka’s excellent running shoes. The tread on the bottom is very good. I haven’t slipped once in them, rain or shine, which can’t be said for most flip flops.

They’re easy to clean with a bristle scrubber and some dish soap. One thing: the soles are taller than you are probably used to, so the first few days you wear them, make sure you duck a bit when getting in and out of the car or low doorways, etc.

I wacked my noggin a few times on the car roof because I wasn’t used to the new height of these sandals. I cannot recommend these too highly. Get them, wear them, be comfortable.

I have 3 pairs of Vionic Sandals and they are so comfortable. I have a bad back and I can wear these all day with minimal back pain! I used to do a lot of shopping on here but their prices have gone up, styles leave a lot to be desired and the fabrics on a lot of the clothing is cheap.

Zulily, you really need to get back to how you were in the beginning! I used to love your products.

I have worn Vionic shoes for several years and they are very comfortable. I always wear a 9. 5M and these were no different. The shoes are very cute but the straps on these shoes are very big and loose so I returned them.

There was no marking on the inside of the shoe indicating the width so I decided to return and buy another pair.

Just ordered the raspberry slide & I’m very disappointed – too much has changed & not for the better, I feel. I have 6 pair of slides/thongs purchaed over several years; they are my ‘all summer’ shoe for indoors/outdoors.

I live in Las Vegas & it is way too hot for anything but open shoes May – Sept! I wear 1 pair as my indoor ‘slippper’ since I have tile/hardwood. The last 2 pair I’ve ordered are NOT the same fit/feel.

With both styes, the foot bed is too firm & the arch not as pronounced. On the slide, the tops are too tall & I had to line the underside of the tops with moleskin so they were snug. Prior to using the moleskin, the slide would turn on my foot if on uneven ground & my next step would be off the foot bed with the slide twisted to the side of my foot – a sprained ankle about to happen.

My sister complained of the same issue. I don’t know what has happened to change from the original design – it seems like the changes coinsided when “all gender” sizing came out – men & women don’t have the same feet as a rule & just sizing down for women doesn’t work – at least not for my sister & I.

I used to rave to anyone who asked about my Hoka Recovery shoes; not any longer. I’m actually looking at another line of recovery shoe I just heard about – see if they are better even though they look much the same.

Go back to your original game plan, please!.

I bought these sandals to replace a previous pair from Hoka (same product, but slightly different model). That PREVIOUS pair were my best sandals ever. I would have given them not 5 stars, but 10, to the point that I bought extra pairs as gifts for friends and family.

I have plantar fasciitis. The old sandals provided truly amazing arch support and I credit them for helping me recover from and manage the fasciitis. They were indeed RECOVERY sandals. The silicone strap created a snuggly fit that make walking in the sandals effortless.

The color combination (aqua + yellow) was beautiful. I was sad when those workhorse sandals broke after several years of daily use. After replacing with the current model, I’ve been disappointed. The elements of the design that once made the product excellent have changed in this new version.

The new sandals don’t offer the same level of arch support and the straps are too big. As a result, the fit is very loose and there is way too much “flopping” when one walks in the flip-flops. They provide the opposite of recovery.

Instead, my feet have to put effort in keeping the sandals in place because of the loose fit. It makes walking strenuous. Please bring back the previous design!.

I am extremely disappointed by the sizing on this sandal. I purchased the grey in 10. 5-11M as I have the Aetrex Dana in that size and the fit is perfect. In my opinion this style/color in the marked size is a 10-10.

5M. Unfortunately, since I did not purchase the sandals for the full price Aetrex will not allow a return. I would not have bought these using the generous discount coupon had I noticed the “fine print” at check out.

I don’t know anyone who would benefit from my bad luck on this purchase to gift them to. I’m going to try selling them on social media. Sadly, this is my first negative experience with purchasing from Aetrex online.

I really like this sandal. I wear a size 7 normally but in Vionic I buy a size 6. Don’t know why. Just works out. This sandal is cute in every way but it doesn’t fit. I realized after I got it that it says Unisex sizeing on QVC but that’s not what it says on the box label.

Anyway, it’s too wide for my foot. More a man’s width in my opinion. Please, Vionic, when you produce a cute sandal don’t make it Unisex. I’m female and I want a female shoe that fits a (most times) a more narrow foot.

Sadly, this little beauty is going back.

Over the years I have ordered many pairs of vionic shoes from QVC and this pair of unisex sandals is being retuned. I ordered a size 7 instead of my regular size 8 because I did understand to size down due to the “unisex”.

These shoes are still too big. Primarily however these shoes have no cushion or support. I was wearing an old pair of vionic slides when I put the first shoe on out of the box and it did not even compare to my old vionic support and cushioning.

DO NOT ORDER POOR QUALITY.

So disappointed in these. I wear the tide ll and have several pairs, but thought I’d try the originals and they are HUGE. I’m a women’s 9 and I always get a 7 in vionics because they run so big and stretch out so much.

These were so big and I have a wide foot. Super bummed as I need to replenish my old sandals. A few of my colors on tide ll are out of stock in my size so my feet are stuck in my old sandals for a while.

Just a bummer they can’t be consistent with their sizing. I’ve ordered several different styles of vionics I mean at least 15 different styles of shoes and sandals and it’s the same problem. they are totally inconsistent with their sizing.

The two pair I just ordered are going back. Hoping the tide ll gets my colors in my size back in stock. For those of you that find the original tide flip flops are too big try the tide ll.

I have purchased many pairs of Vionic over the years. This particular thong was super pretty and was the perfect fit! However, after only a couple months of wearing about once or twice a month, the between-toe attachment came apart.

The way it “disintegrated” made it impossible for me to try and fix. I understand defects happen here and there, but for almost $90 I should’ve been able to wear these all summer. I will continue ordering Vionic, but now I will begin to inspect them more carefully when I first receive them.

If I am on my feet for a while, I get the worst foot and leg pain, and my joints inflame. I found this brand Vionics when I was doing research to find good orthopedic shoes. I have worn these shoes for the past week now and am amazed at how they changed the support that not only my feet get, but also my entire body posture and alignment.

And when I wear them, I have no more pain in my feet, legs, or joints, no matter how long I am walking around. Vionics is the best shoe company I have seen that makes the most comfortable shoe and has the most positive impact on your body.

Get them!.

I ordered a green pair. I done usually like vionic flip flops because of the wide strap. Let me say these are comfortable and amazing. Stock was limited I ordered 7w there are perfect. I really wanted pink too but one review said not as shown I took a chance and ordered another pair in pink.

They are perfect and beautiful!!! Glad I ordered them. I am on my feet for sometimes 12+ hours on concrete. These are going to be perfect!!! Now I want in navy & black!!!.

@@@ Hi there and aloha. Your sandals are terrific in every way – except they’re too narrow for me. Any remedy for me you can think of? Please advise. Thanks! May unexpected blessings keep coming to you.

and from you. All the best, Roger THC Ministry Hilo, Hawai’i @@@.

I have been struggling with lower back pain, and don’t want to be barefoot on my hard floors at home. These are perfect! They are super cozy and can be thrown into the washing machine. I’ll be buying another color since they work so well:).

Perfect shoe!! Fit my arches perfect.

This is my first Vionic purchase and I am very pleased with these sandals. I was very hesitant to order a pair of flip flops for $80, but I thought they were so cute that I decided to give them a try.

I ordered the Rose Gold in a Size 9. I am usually a 9. 5 in sneakers and boots, but I can size down in flip flops and sandals. These fit me perfectly. The foot bed is unlike any other sandal/flip flop I own.

The bottoms of my feet feel so good when wearing these. There was no adjustment period. I put them on and walked around the house without any issues. They are so comfortable that they almost feel like I’m wearing a sneaker (the grip and support are that good).

I have been wearing them everywhere for the last week and I really like them. The only complaint I have is that the foot bed gets dirty and can’t really be cleaned. I put them on with clean feet, but walking around in the backyard or in the elements can cause the foot bed to get dirty since the color is very light They aren’t easy to clean because they are made of some kind of material that isn’t the usual flip flop material that can easily rinsed off.

Either way, they are great and I’m happy I bought them.

I have worn Vionic for years. I wear a 9. 5 m or W if the shoe is narrow. This shoe runs between a B & C width. I ordered M and it is fine. I have a high arch and great support. The straps seem loosely made which is fine, but if they stretch they won’t be comfortable.

I needed the orange as shown online and on air. When I received them, (Fiesta), they were neon and brighter than a construction cone. Cute, but not if your matching and outfit. The grosgrain ribbon is flexible, however rubs against the skin and hurts from abrasion.

It is also a bit wide for between toes. I feel they get more comfortable with wear, however foot pain is possible if they slip around. Each foot is different and if the padding or width on your foot works with these, then they are great, you have to try to know.

Order true to size. These are cute and can be worn a little dressy or casual. It would be nice to see a recorded video with the colors and not a video with snapshots of colors online. I also would appreciate it if in general the hosts or guests can be detailed about sizing and the models sizes.

Pricey in my opinion. I try them around the house before deciding, even though the color is defective or not disclosed correctly, before deciding if I will keep them.

I have Plantar Fasciitis, These shoes are working wonders for my feet. Within an hour of wearing them I felt better. I felt my back was not tired, I felt like I was standing better with the shoes on.

With my Plantar Fasciitis I was in pain and not walking well. I could feel pain in my knees and hips and then of course in my back. I had to do something. I had heard Vionic shoes were good but did not know if they would be comfortable with my current foot problems.

I kept buying shoes that said they were designed for people with PF. None of those gave relief. I am on my feet all day and the comfort and fit is wonderful. I am here today to write a review and look for another pair I can wear as an everyday summer shoe.

I bought the wide size nine. I was afraid the thong part would rub against my toe. I am happy to say they fit well and no rub. I think I could have sized down to 8. 5 wide. The arch support is there and hits just perfect on my foot.

The thong is made of fabric and not plastic. (think shoe lace) The thong part comes back on the side of my foot far enough to add support when I walk. Another fear I had was that I was just going to flop out of the shoe.

I normally do not wear flip flop type of shoe but with the pain and swelling I have I thought this would be a good place to start. I also chose to divide my payment up into easy pay. This would work better for my budget.

I am overall pleased and I would recommend these shoes. QCV makes it easy to order and return so I am out nothing. Happy !.
