Women's Women's Rest Amber Backstrap Sandal - Ladies Adjustable Walking Sandals with Concealed Orthotic Arch Support

The Rest Amber Backstrap Sandals are totally AUTHENTIC Vionics for those who want to know. I looked up “Walking Comfort” (based in Centerville, Utah) at the Vionic Store Locator on the Vionicshoes.com website, and it is on the list. I wear an 8-1/2 shoe, and the Size 8 sandals fits perfectly. This is my second pair of the same style I purchased a few years ago, and my feet absolutely love them!

I have to wear shoes with arch support and this shoe is great for that! Having adjustable straps on every strap is great. Some of the supportive sandals are really wide. These are a bit wider than my non-supportive, cute sandals, but not overly wide. I really like them and will get them in other colors! Worth the money.

These sandals are comfortable for me because I need the arch support. However,I can't wear Vionic unless there are velcro closings on the straps b ecause they are sp wide. With the velcro strap, I can pull the straps all the way across my foot so they are snug on my feet, but the straps stick out over the side. The strap that goes down the middle of the top of this sandal is removable. I took it off because the look of the shoe is just too busy for me with all the straps. Maybe it would be look better if the shoe wasn't so wide. Despite my complaints about the excessive width, I bought this sandal in two colors because I love the arch support nd the velcro strap makes it possible to wear these sandals.

Ok, I guess I just don't know what "stylish" is any more. Comfort has become number one priority in my life. I have read so many reviews that say that this sandal is not "stylish" and that it looks like a "grandma sandal." Or best yet, an "old lady sandal." Well, I am a grandma and I am 64 years old so I guess I'd agree. However, these sandals allow me to walk, without pain of any kind, 1 to 2 hours a day. 7 days a week. NO PAIN! So back to the stylish issue. If someone could show me 1. What "stylish" looks like and 2. What shoe is both stylish and comfortable, I'll buy them. Until then this old grandma, who walks daily and is VERY ACTIVE, wants comfort. (Shhhh... I think these shoes are pretty cute. But what do I know.,) Oh, I suffered from an Achilles injury while hiking on our cross country trip looking for covered bridges. My first pair of vionics were purchased while it healed. I now own 4 pair. Wore out one which I use in the garden. I have only purchased the sandal. Someday I'll try another style.

I bought the Samoa sandal first and loved the way they felt. Unfortunately I kept stepping out of them. So thought I’d get these and they really aren’t as comfortable as the Samoa at all. I may try a different size in the Samoa to see if I can keep them on. Im a half size so I read reviews to order a size down. In the Samoa and they were right on the edge of too small, so I ordered a size up on these. I also ordered a regular instead of a wide width and it worked out perfect. I’m starting to feel like Goldilocks, hoping I can find just the right one. Long story long, the Samoa has way more support, if you can get them to stay on your feet. These are hard for me.

These shoes are very attractive and fit well. Love the ability to have three straps to tighten them helping with my plantar fasciitis and even though I had to wear a compression sock these shoes made it able to wear it comfortably.

I purchased a pair of these shoes at a retail store a few years ago and loved them. I wore them regularly for years. Eventually they started to smell from sweaty feet. When it came time to replace them, I purchased through Amazon. The new pair was nothing like the ones I purchased at the retail store. They look the same, but the quality isn't the same, nor is the comfort of the shoe. I won't purchase shoes from Amazon ever again. I want to try on before buying. This was a waste of $100. Lesson learned.

Bought these in October 2024 but did not wear them until summer of 2025. I love the fit and look of these sand. I just noticed though that the back strap is coming ripping at the seam. How do I get a refund or replacement?
