VIONIC

Vionic is a supportive footwear brand that traces its origins to Australian podiatrist Phillip Vasyli, who developed a flip-flop with built-in orthotic support after seeing a need for more accessible comfort footwear. Today the brand pairs contoured footbeds with polished styles that look more everyday than technical. At Sole Provisions, the Vionic collection includes sandals, sneakers, flats, boots, and slippers, and it sits naturally beside our wider women's footwear, arch support shoes, and women's sandals selections.

From a Podiatrist's Idea to Everyday Styles

Vasyli believed supportive footwear could help people stay active and comfortable. That idea still shapes the brand, which describes its shoes as podiatrist designed with built in orthotic support. Vionic is now part of Caleres, which announced the acquisition in 2018. If you like brands with a supportive footbed, you may also enjoy Aetrex and Naot.

The VIO MOTION Support System

VIO MOTION is Vionic's signature support system. It combines a deep heel cup, contoured arch support, cushioning, and flexible construction. The deep heel cup helps stabilize the heel, and the contoured arch support provides structure through the middle of the foot. Some styles, such as the Tokyo sneaker, also use the Advanced Motion System with a removable EVA orthotic insert. For medical questions about your feet, check with a healthcare professional.

Sandals With Support Built In

The Saratoga is a dressy sandal with a jute wrapped wedge and an adjustable ankle strap, and the Karley is a strappy slip on with an EVA footbed. Browse more in our women's sandals and women's slip ons.

Sneakers for Walking and Errands

The Tokyo, Uptown, City Walk, and Walk Strider Weekend add support to sneaker styles. Compare them with women's sneakers, men's sneakers, and our walking shoes.

Flats, Boots, and Slippers

The Willa flat and Caroll 2.0 offer a more polished look, while the Rhiannon, Phillipa, and Nella are among the boots. The Relax slipper has a terrycloth upper and an adjustable closure. See more in our women's boots and women's slippers.

Fit, Width, and Adjustability

Adjustable closures help fine tune fit, and widths vary by individual style, so check each product page. If you need more room, browse our wide width shoes and bunion friendly shoes. For a personal fitting, visit one of our Sole Provisions locations.

Adding Your Own Support

Where a style has a removable insert, you can explore shoe inserts, including Superfeet, PowerStep, and Aetrex Orthotics. Read more in our educational hub, or see our guide to sneakers for plantar fasciitis. Pair your shoes with women's socks, and care for them with our shoe care products.
