Troubleshooting

Initial discomfort or pressure points

This is often due to the break-in period. Continue wearing them for a few hours daily as recommended. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. If discomfort persists after a week, contact customer support.

Foot feels unstable after wearing for a while

Ensure the shoes are the correct size and fit snugly but not too tight. Verify that the laces (if applicable on other models, though Darcy is pull-on) are adequately tied. Check if the footbed is correctly seated.

Mesh upper shows signs of wear or scuffing

Gently clean with a damp cloth. For tougher spots, use a mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners. For significant damage, repair options may be limited.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

These sneakers are ready to wear out of the box. However, Vionic recommends a 'break-in' period. Wear your new pair for a few hours each day for the first week to allow your feet to gradually adapt to the unique support system. This helps prevent any initial discomfort and ensures you fully benefit from the VIO MOTION Technology.

Compatibility:

Designed for women, these trainers are ideal for those who require enhanced arch support, have issues with foot alignment, or seek comfortable footwear for walking and daily wear. They are generally compatible with standard sock thicknesses.

Care:

  • Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the mesh upper with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or soaking.
  • Cleaning the Footbed: The footbed can be spot-cleaned with a mild soap and water solution. Ensure it dries completely before wearing.
  • Drying: Air dry the sneakers away from direct heat sources. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use to maintain their shape and material integrity.
