Product Information
Full details
The Vionic Walk Strider Weekender is a high-performance walking sneaker designed for women who prioritize both biomechanical support and casual comfort. Featuring the advanced Vio Motion technology, these trainers are ideal for those who need arch support and full-body alignment during daily walks or long weekend outings, though users should be aware that the substantial arch support may require an initial adjustment period for those unaccustomed to orthotic-style footwear.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, these are designed specifically for performance walking and casual wear. Running puts different stresses on the shoe that this model is not intended to support.
Do I need to add my own orthotics?
The Walk Strider Weekender features built-in Vio Motion Technology, which is designed to provide professional-grade arch support, so additional orthotics are generally not necessary.
How high is the heel?
These trainers feature a 1.75-inch heel height with a 1.125-inch platform, providing a supportive incline.
Can I remove the footbed?
The footbed is integrated into the design to ensure proper stability; it is not intended to be removed or replaced.
Are they true to size?
Vionic shoes are generally true to standard UK sizing, but if you are between sizes or plan to wear thick socks, you may want to consider your standard athletic shoe size.
Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure in the arch area
This is normal for Vionic shoes; wear them for shorter durations for the first few days to let your feet adjust to the alignment.
Shoes feel loose after walking
Re-tighten the laces using a runner's loop or double knot to ensure the heel cup remains securely against your foot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Walk Strider Weekenders, follow these care steps:
- Break-in Period: If you are new to Vionic footwear, wear the shoes for a few hours at a time during the first week to allow the arch support to adapt to your foot.
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh industrial detergents.
- Drying: Air dry only. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or inside a clothes dryer, as extreme heat can degrade the EVA midsole cushioning.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to prevent material breakdown and keep the shape of the heel cup intact.
