FAQs

What is Vio Motion Technology?

Vio Motion Technology is Vionic's exclusive system integrated into the footbed, designed to support natural alignment, promote full-body balance, and provide enhanced comfort through contoured arch support, shock-absorbing cushioning, deep heel cups, and forefoot flexibility.

Are these sandals suitable for plantar fasciitis?

Vionic shoes, including the Essie sandals, are often recommended for individuals with plantar fasciitis due to their built-in arch support and alignment technology, which can help alleviate foot pain.

What material is the footbed made of?

The footbed is made of a soft microfibre material for added comfort.

How do I clean the leather straps?

Gently wipe the leather straps with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using any abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the leather.

What is the heel height of the Essie sandals?

The heel height is approximately 3 cm.

Can I wear these sandals in wet conditions?

While the materials are durable, the TPR sole may not provide optimal grip on very wet or slippery surfaces. It is advisable to exercise caution in such conditions.

Do these sandals come in other colors?

Yes, the Vionic Essie sandal is available in various colors including Brown, Tan, and Bronze, in addition to Black.

Troubleshooting

Initial discomfort with asymmetrical straps

Allow a break-in period of a few wears for your feet to adjust to the strap design. Ensure the fit is correct for your foot size.

Squeaking noise from sandals

This can sometimes occur with new footwear. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder under the insole or between the sole and the upper. Ensure no moisture is trapped.

Footbed feels too firm initially

The Vio Motion Technology footbed is designed to provide support. Wear them for short periods initially to allow your feet to adapt to the contoured support and cushioning.
