Product Information
Full details
The Vionic Gretchen knee-high boot is designed for adults seeking a sophisticated silhouette without compromising on orthopedic support. Combining premium leather construction with VIO MOTION Technology, these boots provide essential arch support, stability, and cushioning for long-term wear. While they offer superior comfort, users should note that the knee-high design and specific arch profile may require an adjustment period if you are not accustomed to supportive footwear.

FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
The Gretchen boots are crafted from premium leather, which is water-resistant but not fully waterproof. It is recommended to use a leather protectant spray.
Can I replace the insoles with my own orthotics?
The VIO MOTION Technology is built into the footbed for optimal alignment. Removing it may compromise the intended comfort and structural support.
How do I clean the leather?
Wipe with a soft, damp cloth and use a quality leather cleaner or conditioner periodically.
Does the back gore panel stretch enough for wider calves?
The back gore panel provides a degree of stretch for a tailored fit, though the capacity is limited compared to fully elasticized boots.
What is the total height of the heel?
The boots feature a 1.75-inch heel with a 1.125-inch platform, resulting in a modest incline that promotes comfort.
Troubleshooting
Zipper feels stiff or hard to pull
Check the zipper track for debris or fabric caught in the mechanism. Apply a tiny amount of dry lubricant if necessary.
Footbed feels overly firm initially
Vionic shoes require a brief "break-in" period. Wear them for a few hours at a time over the first few days to allow the arch support to conform.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Vionic Gretchen boots last, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Because the upper is made of premium leather, apply a leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple and prevent cracking. Use a damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt after use. If the boots become wet, air dry them naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, as this can degrade the leather and the cushioning materials inside the footbed. Ensure the zipper is kept free of debris to maintain smooth operation.
