Women's Spark Desiree Ballet Flat - Ladies Flats with Concealed Orthotic Arch Support

Worse shoes ever, the fake leather peels off, the sole does not have traction and is very slippery. They only lasted about 6 months. Poor quality!I slipped and fell hurting my back and knee.If you do not want to take a fall don’t buy them.

HORRIBLE. I’ve has these flats for less than 3 months. I have worn them a few times a week. They are already tearing!!!! Such poor quality and I paid so much for them I want to cry. DO NOT BUY.

As others have noted, this particular design from vionic does not have a soft, flexible heel back. I compared it with my other vionic flats and the others have a different 'back of the shoe' piece that allows for more flexibility - a flat piece rather than a seam. This one is quite rigid and digs into the heel, which becomes rather painful. I'm hoping it will soften with use, but I plan to break them in a little at a time to avoid injury and bandaids!

I purchased these to do a 3-day trade show. I was able to wear them day one straight out of the box and they felt like slippers even after a 10 hour day of standing.I definitely need to get them in other colors as they will be my go to shoes for a professional yet comfy work shoe.

The shoes are cute. After wearing them for about an hour today, my soles feel great yet my heel have been rubbed raw. Hence, the three stars.

I really wanted to like these shoes. I first purchased my size and the first few days they were comfortable. I did not experience any trouble breaking them in. They have good support unlike other ballet flats that hurt my feet after a day's wear, these have great arch support. Also, they are super cute in a nice navy blue with the nice stitching detailing.However, I did notice that after using them for over a month on a regular basis with my casual attire, they because super loose. I could no longer use them. No problem, I thought. I will donate these gently used shoes that became oversized to the Goodwill and I will purchase a new pair a size smaller. Well now into several weeks with my second pair in a size smaller, I am experiencing the same problem where they are getting too loose. When I walk wearing the shoes, they tend to come off my heel. I am not sure if I want to donate the second pair as well and just give up completely on this brand. In any case, I cannot use them when I leave my home as it's embarrassing to walk around in shoes that come off the heel.

I only wear Vionic shoes because they give me the arch support I need. I was pleased to find these at this price point. Much less than regular prices charged at Dept Store or Vionic on line.

These shoes are exactly as pictured. They are comfortable and versatile. Fit as expected.

Really liked the shoes. When i tried them they seemed fine. Wore them to work and i wish i would of got a half size up, my feet felt a bit cramped!

Slightly on the small size compared to other Vionics that I have, especially considering I ordered the wide fit

Wide for foam ortho insoles. Only thing I am trying next side is 7wide (i Just bought another). I bought 7.5 Wide, I felt a bit lose but still can walk. I use everyday, Most presentable shoe i had in 3 years. Design is nice and classy.
