Full details
The Vionic Uptown Trainers in Black are designed for adult women seeking stylish footwear that actively supports foot health, particularly for those experiencing plantar fasciitis.

FAQs
Are these shoes good for plantar fasciitis?
Yes, the Uptown Trainers are specifically designed with VIO MOTION Technology, featuring contoured arch support and shock-absorbing cushioning, which are beneficial for alleviating plantar fasciitis pain.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is made of genuine leather, providing durability and a premium look.
How do I clean the leather upper?
Clean the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a cleaner specifically designed for leather. Avoid soaking the shoes.
What is the heel height of these trainers?
The heel height is approximately 1.625 inches, with a platform height of about 0.875 inches.
Can I wear these for running or intense exercise?
While they offer good support for walking and daily activities, they are primarily designed for comfort and plantar fasciitis relief, not for high-impact athletic training. For intense exercise, a dedicated running shoe is recommended.
What type of sole do these trainers have?
They have a durable rubber sole that provides good traction.
Is the arch support removable?
The VIO MOTION Technology is built into the shoe's construction and is not designed to be removable.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight initially
Leather will naturally stretch and mold to your foot with wear. Try wearing them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure laces are not overtightened.
Arch support feels too pronounced
This is a common adjustment period for individuals new to Vionic's biomechanical support. Wear them for progressively longer periods. If discomfort persists after a break-in period, consult with a foot health professional.
Slight squeaking sound
This can occasionally happen with new footwear. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole or on the tongue area where rubbing might occur.
