FAQs
Are these shoes good for plantar fasciitis?
The Vionic Walk Strider Sneaker features built-in orthotic support with contoured arch support and a deep heel cup, which are beneficial for many individuals suffering from plantar fasciitis.
Can I wear these shoes for running?
These trainers are specifically designed for walking. While they offer good cushioning and support, they may not provide the specific features required for high-impact running activities.
How do I clean the knit upper?
The knit upper can be cleaned by gently wiping with a damp cloth and mild soap. Allow the shoes to air dry completely.
What makes the VIO MOTION Technology different?
VIO MOTION Technology is an advanced system that combines arch support, shock absorption, stability, and flexibility to promote natural foot alignment and comfortable movement.
How do I determine my correct UK size?
Refer to Vionic's official sizing chart, which typically provides measurements for foot length to match with UK shoe sizes. Ensure you measure your foot accurately.
Is the suede material waterproof?
No, the suede material is not inherently waterproof and requires protection from excessive moisture. Consider using a suede protector spray for added resistance.
What is the warranty period for these sneakers?
Please refer to the product packaging or Vionic's official website for specific warranty information, as this can vary by region and retailer.
Troubleshooting
Initial stiffness or discomfort
This is common due to the supportive VIO MOTION Technology. Wear the shoes for short periods initially, gradually increasing wear time to allow your feet to adapt.
Suede appears dirty or matted
Use a suede brush to gently restore the texture. For tougher stains, use a recommended suede cleaner and follow the product's instructions carefully.
Shoe feels too narrow or too wide
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. If fit issues persist, consider trying a half-size up or down if available, or consult Vionic's sizing guide.
Reduced cushioning effect over time
While durable, cushioning can diminish with extensive use. Regular cleaning and proper storage can help maintain performance. If significant degradation occurs, consider replacement.
