FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The Vionic 23Walk 2.0 trainers are designed for walking and everyday wear, offering excellent support and comfort for these activities. They are not specifically designed as high-performance running shoes.

What is the benefit of the .5" elevation in the midsole?

The .5" elevation in the EVA midsole is designed to facilitate a smooth transition in the heel-to-toe strike zone as you walk, promoting a more natural and efficient gait cycle.

How do I clean the suede version of these trainers?

For suede trainers, use a suede brush to remove dry dirt and dust. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and always test in an inconspicuous area first. Protect with a suede protector spray.

Can I wear these trainers with orthotics?

The design of the Vionic 23Walk 2.0 trainers includes built-in support. While some users may find they can accommodate thin orthotics, the integrated arch support is a key feature and may make it difficult to insert additional insoles.

What is the heel height of these trainers?

The heel height for the Vionic 23Walk 2.0 trainers is approximately 1.75 inches.

Are these trainers waterproof?

The trainers are not explicitly marketed as waterproof. The leather and suede uppers may offer some resistance to light moisture, but they are not designed for heavy rain or wet conditions. The mesh liner is breathable but not waterproof.

Troubleshooting

Initial tightness or discomfort

Allow for a break-in period of a few hours of wear per day. Ensure the correct size has been purchased.

Suede material becoming marked

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove dry marks. For tougher stains, consult a suede cleaner.

Reduced traction over time

Clean the rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove any debris that may be affecting grip. Avoid using oils or silicones on the outsole.

Moisture inside the shoe

Ensure the mesh liner is clean and dry. Allow shoes to air out completely between wears. Consider using moisture-wicking socks.
