“Vionic shoes provide essential stability and addictive support. With a contour seamlessly engineered into each shoe, sandal and slipper, Vionic helps support natural alignment from the ground up. Many of our products are recommended by the APMA, or American Podiatric Medical Association. Vionic’s breakthrough technology offers versatility, which means you can have orthotic comfort in your favorite shoes. Only Vionic has its unique orthotic built right into its shoes for orthotic relief without the orthopedic look.” A padded collar, stretch panels for easy entry and airy perforations make this suede slip-on a comfy pairing for any casual look. This shoe is very similar to the Kimmie Perf Sneaker currently listed on Vionic’s website for $130 with a slightly different pattern in the suede. https://www.vionicshoes.com/kimmie-perf-sneaker.html?color=1038 There is a nude colored pad secured to the back inner heel of the left shoe from the two days I tried to wear this shoe, as seen in the third photo. Please let me know if you have any questions, thank you!
