Can I wear these for formal events?

How high is the heel?

Do these sandals provide enough support for arch issues?

Yes, the Vio Motion technology includes built-in contoured arch support recommended by podiatrists.

How do I clean the leather?

Use a soft, damp cloth for general cleaning. You may use a leather-safe conditioner to maintain the material's suppleness.

What does the APMA Seal of Acceptance mean?

It means the American Podiatric Medical Association has reviewed the product and confirmed it promotes good foot health.

Troubleshooting

The leather upper feels stiff initially.

Wear the sandals with thin socks for short periods at home to gently soften the leather, or apply a leather conditioner.

The slingback strap feels loose.

Adjust the functional buckle to a tighter notch to secure the heel in place.

Footbed feels unusual or uncomfortable at first.

This is common with orthopedic footwear; your feet may need 1-2 weeks to adjust to the corrected arch alignment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Vionic Raquel sandals, wipe them down with a soft, dry cloth to remove dirt after each use. For the leather upper, use a specialized leather cleaner or conditioner periodically to prevent drying or cracking. Since these are high-quality leather shoes, avoid prolonged exposure to heavy moisture or submerging them in water. When first wearing your sandals, consider wearing them for a few hours at a time during the first week to allow the Vio Motion footbed to properly conform to your natural arch and gait patterns.
