Vionic with Orthaheel?

deb

Has anyone tried these shoes? I ordered this flipflop in the navy. I am also wondering if these might be able to pass for the Birkinstock look in black?

OMG leopard flipflops - http://www.qvc.com/Vionic-w-Or.....ts.product.$

Are these in the tan too old lady? http://www.qvc.com/Vionic-w-Or.....A239853.ht$

Haven't tried them, but I'm intrigued, as I've been having foot issues lately--plantar fasciitis, it seems. I don't wear flipflops much, but these look cute and comfy.
To me the black Vionics with cork soles don't have the current Birkenstock look--not clunky enough.
The tan pair I think are not especially on trend, but not unstylish by any means. They are feminine and pretty, and you could wear them with just about any summer outfit--pants, shorts, casual dresses or skirts.

I haven't tried the newer ones, but I've sworn by Orthaheel flip flops for years! I usually end up forgoing all other sandals and wearing those all summer.

(Orthaheel recently became Vionic.)

I recently bought a pair of Vionic Orthaheel bronze color sandals . I haven't worn them yet though as the weather is only just really getting nice enough now . I have been wearing some open toe clog style sandals for transitional weather.

I started wearing them a couple of years ago when I had problems with plantar fasciitis. I love them, I haven't had any problems with plantar fasciitis since.
So far I've only worn slides around the house, but this year I thought I could use a pair of comfortable, supportive sandals for vacation when I have to walk a lot, that are dressier than my Tevas and Chacos .
I bought the Martinique sandal in bronze . They are very comfortable and I think they look pretty cute considering they are a comfort sandal.

I live in my Orthaheels in the summertime, so much so that I duplicated my favorite style last summer to break out this summer! And I don't have any foot issues, really - they're just super comfy.

I don't think you can go wrong with these shoes. Good luck! Hope you love them!

I liked the tan pair. They are looking good. You can wear them with any summer outfit. I usually wear flipflops in the summertime. I just love comfy of them.

The tan pair is great and no where near being described as old lady. It can be so hard to find shoes that are both comfortable and stylish. Tan matches a whole range of outfits too.

I bought the pair below in navy and white last summer and they are quite comfy on my fussy feet and reasonably cute for someone with as many foot problems as I have. They're not quite as comfortable for long days on my feet as my birkenstocks, so thank goodness those are in style this year!

I don't think those tan QVC ones are too old lady. If they had thick straps, sure, but with the thin straps they look quite delicate.
