FAQs

Are these sandals suitable for all-day wear?

Yes, the Vio Motion technology is specifically designed to provide alignment and cushioning for extended wear.

How do I determine my size?

These sandals are offered in standard adult UK sizes. We recommend selecting your usual shoe size, as the leather upper offers a consistent fit.

Can I replace the insole?

No, the Vio Motion technology is built directly into the footbed for maximum stability and support.

Are they waterproof?

No, these are leather sandals and should be kept away from excessive water to prevent damaging the material.

Does the block heel provide good balance?

Yes, the block design is chosen specifically for its stability compared to thinner, tapered heels.

Is the leather upper breathable?

The open-toe design combined with high-quality leather allows for natural airflow, making them comfortable for warm weather.

Troubleshooting

Footbed feels unusual or hard at first

This is common with orthopedic footwear; wear the sandals for short periods over the first week to allow your arches to acclimate to the support.

Buckle detail causing minor irritation

Ensure the buckle is positioned properly and the strap tension is balanced; verify that no part of the metal is digging into the skin.

  • Stable block heel design reduces pressure on the forefoot

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Vionic Raquel sandals, it is recommended to store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Since they feature genuine leather uppers, you should wipe them clean with a soft, dry cloth if they come into contact with dust or dirt. For tougher stains, use a specialized leather cleaner. When first wearing your Vionic footwear, we recommend wearing them for only a few hours at a time during the first few days to allow your feet to adjust to the orthotic arch support. Ensure the slingback strap is adjusted comfortably to avoid friction against the heel.
