This shoe looks great on your foot. The top of the shoe comes together in a "v" shape, which is much more flattering that your typical rounded configuration. However, this shoe is very awkward and uncomfortable because the back heal tab is low and does not come to the top of your heel like a shoe would. It hit me in the middle of the heel. Reluctantly, I have to return this cute shoe because of the discomfort. For me, this is unwearable and heel height in a shoe has never been a problem for me. This shoe also runs big.

I wanted to love these, but I don't. The sole is comfortable, but the toe box is narrow, even though I ordered in wide. However, this could be a problem with any shoe that comes to a point. Rest of show felt a little too roomy. Didn't like the animal print so much. It's a little cheap looking, not subtle enough, contrast too great. Back they go.

These aren' too comfortable in the toe box, but the reason I had to return them is that they squeak loudly when you walk. Would drive me crazy.

I thought these would be my work solution, but agree with the other reviews. Oddly tight in the toe area from bottom of foot to top. Shoes crunch down on my feet at the "toe knuckles" and this never really stretched out with time. A bigger size would be too long, wider would not fix this. Also, these were somehow less cute in person, more of the "ortho" look than other shoes from vionic. I have the black snakeskin one. I've been switching my shoes out for vionics now, and it has really helped my falling arches and sore feet walking around. I should have returned right away, but I wore them with hope so am now stuck.

I bought these due to a recent plantar fasciitis issue. These looked like they would have plenty of arch support and still look nice for work. Well, they DO have plenty of arch support, but the back of the heel destroyed my heels/ankles. They also were weirdly wide and spread when I put my foot down, making my foot look twice as wide as it is. Not a win for me. Returning.

I loved the appearance of the shoe. I ordered a 1/2 size smaller (7.5) and it fit perfectly. I walked around my condo on carpeted floor for about an hour. The almost immediately began to "gap" at the sides with every step. It was very unsightly. I could feel the cork stretching already. I was so disappointed. I loved the cut of the shoe and I really wanted a pair of cork shoes. Sadly, I have to return them.

Don't know. I guess I will go back to my standby, "Trotter." I liked this shoe bcs it was dressier

These shoes are super comfortable and provide good arch support for my flexible feet with out additional inserts. The problem is the styles offered. I just need brown and black for work please! All this other leopard, snake, gold glitter. For the love! I can't begin to coordinate all that nonsense and no one really cares. Let me just get dressed and go in the morning already

Vionic has become my favorite brand because of the fabulous arch support however these shoes had one of my heels bleeding, even with heel pads in them. The gold cork is cute, but the material feels like hard plastic...no give and plus they squeak when I walk! I meant to take an extra pair to work with me today but forgot them and paid the price. Like all Vionics I find that they run about a bit large ( I wear an 8 or 8.5, but in Vionic am a solid 8), but will stick to their leather styles in future. If I hadn't had to wear these all day, they would be going back :-(

I absolutely love the look of these shoes! I read a ton of the reviews and I should have listened. I am typically a 7 1/2 and it was way too big. I exchanged it for a 7 and it was SO tight! Really wanted these shoes. :(

I was disappointed that this shoe did not fit as well as other Vionics. The pointed toe design definitely makes for a narrower shoe, even in wide sizes. Tried half size up and wide, still way too tight in the size I normally wear in Vionic.

I agree with several other reviewers...the shoe is really cute except it is too long. My heels absolutely will not stay in the shoe, but I think a smaller size would be too small. So sad because I loved the pointed toe.

Position of arch was way off (too far toward heel by a lot)--unwearable. Besides this, the style was not as light or cute as anticipated. I was looking for something more youthful; to me, this shoe had a heavy, inflexible feel, and was generally unflattering. Returned! (Too bad, the snake print is cool.)

Cute shoes, but do not fit my foot in either wide or medium width Too tight across my bunion area and too low across my toes, shows toe "cleavage".

What the hell, Vionics?! I have now ordered this shoe 4 times - size 9 (my size for other closed-heel Vionics shoes), then 8.5, 8, and 7.5. The 7.5 still makes me look like a toddler wearing Mommy's shoes. Get your sizing charts right and consistent, for goodness sake's.
This looks like a gorgeous shoe. I think it's elegant and suitable for almost any occasion. Unfortunately, the shoe sizing folks at Vionics missed the boat on this one.
And I don't imagine Zappos is too enthusiastic about my four returns.

I love Vionic shoes. They are especially great if you suffer from Plantar Fascitis. This shoe was HORRIBLE. The sole is comfortable but everything else felt like razors. The shoe is hard and stiff and cut my heels so bad and left the sides of my feet scratched and even gave me blisters on my toes. I tried wearing this shoe 5 times hoping it would feel better after time but it didnt. It was such a disappointment that last time i wore them out I literally threw them in the trash. Dont waste your money on these shoes unless youre willing to put bandaids all over your feet.

Beautiful shoes that run big and narrow. I typically wear a size 7M in Vionic shoes/boots. Size 6 fit but too narrow across the toes.

These were exactly what I wanted, but they were too big, and I could not make them work with any combination of shoe pads I tried. They are also very stiff which would surely result in blisters.

The sizing was WAY off on these. In normal shoes I'm an 8, but Vionic usually runs big so I ordered 7.5. It was huge, to the point where I don't think one of those sticky heel inserts would have made a difference. At this price point, I don't want to be fussing with fit, though. I ordered the 7 and they were a good length, but the toe box got way too narrow. I was hoping to finally be able to wear a pointy-toed flat with arch support, but these were a letdown.
