FAQs
Can these slippers help with plantar fasciitis?
Yes, the Vionic Gemma features Orthaheel technology specifically designed to reduce excess pronation and provide relief for plantar fasciitis.
Are these suitable for wearing outside?
These are primarily designed as indoor slippers; the soles are optimized for home environments and may wear prematurely on rough outdoor surfaces.
How do I clean my Vionic slippers?
Use a soft, damp cloth for spot cleaning. Do not machine wash or tumble dry to avoid damaging the orthotic footbed.
Will the arch support feel too high?
Some users feel the arch support is quite firm at first, but this is intentional to provide the necessary correction for healthy foot alignment.
Do they provide good grip on hardwood floors?
Yes, the fabric-covered TPR outsoles feature a specialized wave-patterned tread to provide stability and traction on smooth indoor flooring.
What is Orthaheel technology?
Orthaheel is Vionic's proprietary footbed technology that is biomechanically designed to cradle your arches and support natural alignment.
Troubleshooting
Feeling discomfort during initial use
This is normal for orthotic footwear; wear them for short intervals until your feet adjust to the alignment.
Slippers starting to develop an odor
Ensure you are airing out the slippers after each use and verify the EcoFresh linings are kept dry.
Loss of traction
Clean the wave-patterned TPR outsole with a damp cloth to remove dust or debris buildup.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Vionic Gemma slippers, it is recommended to wear them for only a few hours at a time during the first few days of ownership, allowing your feet to adapt to the orthotic support. For maintenance, keep the slippers dry to preserve the integrity of the footbed materials. If they become soiled, gently spot clean the exterior with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can compromise the anatomical shape of the footbed.
