Product Information
Full details
The Vionic Walk Slim Glide Trainers are designed for adult women who prioritize both fashion and orthopedic support in their daily footwear. These sleek, leather trainers integrate advanced biomechanical technology to provide exceptional arch support and stability for long periods of standing or walking. While they offer superior cushioning and alignment features, new users should note that the orthotic-style support may require a short breaking-in period to allow the foot to adjust to the Vio Motion technology.

FAQs
Are these trainers machine washable?
No, do not put your Vionic trainers in the washing machine. Clean them by wiping the leather surface with a damp cloth.
Do I need to buy custom orthotics?
No, these trainers feature built-in Vio Motion technology designed to provide professional-grade arch support without extra inserts.
How should I store them when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to maintain the leather quality and prevent the EVA midsole from drying out.
Can I remove the footbed?
The footbed is designed as an integral part of the shoe's support system and is generally intended to stay in place.
What is the primary benefit of the deep heel cup?
The deep heel cup helps stabilize your foot, preventing excessive rolling and promoting proper body alignment from the ground up.
Troubleshooting
Feeling discomfort in the arch area initially
This is common with orthopedic footwear; wear the shoes for 1-2 hours daily to gradually acclimate your feet to the alignment technology.
Leather looks dull or scuffed
Use a leather conditioner or cream suitable for the specific colour to restore the finish and protect the material.
Slippage in the heel
Ensure the laces are tightened properly through all eyelets to secure the heel cup against the back of your foot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure maximum comfort, start by wearing your new trainers for a few hours at a time during the first week to allow the Vio Motion footbed to accommodate your foot's unique contours. The leather uppers are durable but should be kept away from excessive moisture; clean them with a soft, damp cloth and a mild leather cleaner if necessary. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water, as this can degrade the specialized materials and the adhesive used in the EVA midsole. If the shoes become wet, air dry them naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the leather from cracking.
