Product Information
Full details
The Vionic Gretchen Boots are designed for adults seeking a blend of sophisticated style and orthopedic support. These knee-high leather boots are ideal for those who require all-day comfort, thanks to the integrated Vio Motion Technology that provides arch support and shock absorption. While they offer a tailored fit with a sleek silhouette, the knee-high construction may feel restrictive to some users compared to ankle-height alternatives.

FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
The Gretchen boots are made from leather, which is water-resistant, but they are not fully waterproof. It is recommended to use a protective leather spray.
Can I replace the footbed with my own orthotics?
The Vionic Gretchen boots come with built-in Vio Motion Technology. While the footbeds are often designed to be effective, please check if your specific custom orthotics fit the depth of the boot.
How high is the heel?
The heel height is 1.75 inches, paired with a 1.125-inch platform for added comfort.
Is the leather upper easy to clean?
Yes, standard leather care products such as wipes or conditioners will effectively clean and maintain the exterior material.
Does the zipper require special care?
Keep the zipper free of debris and ensure no fabric gets caught when closing it to maintain smooth operation.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight around the calf.
Ensure the back gore panel is not obstructed by your clothing or hosiery and allow the elasticized panel to fully expand for your fit.
Squeaking sound when walking.
This is often caused by the insole rubbing against the boot interior; ensure the removable footbed is seated correctly or add a light dusting of talc powder under the insole.
Leather looks dull after moisture exposure.
Wipe the boots with a dry cloth to remove excess moisture and apply a leather cream to restore the natural oils and finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Vionic Gretchen Boots, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. To maintain the leather, use a soft cloth to remove surface dirt and apply a leather-safe conditioner periodically to prevent cracking. The boots are designed to fit true to size, but if you intend to wear them with thick socks, you may find the fit slightly tighter due to the tailored silhouette. When cleaning the lugged TPR outsole, use a damp brush to dislodge debris from the textured patterns to maintain consistent grip.
