Comfort has always been my prime consideration when buying shoes. No matter how nice or fashionable a pair is, if it doesn’t feel good on my feet, I don’t want it. Life’s too short to be walking in pain. I don’t believe in sacrificing comfort for style. It’s with this mindset that I literally squeezed in the Vionic footwear launch into my crazy schedule.
I visited the Vionic boutique at Uptown Mall in BGC.
There were a lot of styles ranging from slip-ons, sandals, flats, boots, to athletic shoes.
Vionic Tide Rhinestone (P3,400)
Vionic began with the work of its founder, renowned podiatrist Phillip Vasyli. Having treated a multitude of people for foot, ankle, and leg problems, he invented one of the first heat-moldable orthotics (custom made insert) that let his patients walk out of his practice feeling better. This became the basis for Vionic’s stylish range of comfortable shoes. According to Michael O’ Donnel, VP International of the Vionic Group, Vionic’s first pair of shoes were flipflops. Eventually they came out with more and more styles to suit different occasions.
Rest Karina Toe Post (P3,800 per pair)
Minna Ballet Flats (P5,000)
I didn’t get the model name of their ankle boots but it costs around or a little over P6k per pair.
I wanted something I could wear everyday so I picked these platform sandals called Pacific Capitola (P4,500).
They have fashionable pointy flats like the Caballo Flat (above left) beside my Pacific Capitola (above right). I prefer open footwear for daily use.
Vionic has athletic shoes too! Above are the Fyn Active Sneakers (P5,200 per pair) and the Opal Mary Jane Sneaker (P4,500). I actually considered the Mary Janes but I prefer footwear with a bit more height so I still settled for the Pacific Capitola.
They have a men’s line as well. This is the Roth Wing Tip (P7,000).
Other men’s styles include (from top row to bottom row): Men’s Tide Toe Post Sandal (P3,600), Jon Slide Sandal (P5,000), and Gerrit Sandal (P5,200).
Vionic footwear aren’t just comfortable, they’re actually healthy too. They help support the natural alignment of our feet, ankles, and legs. Moving in accordance to our natural alignment helps prevent heel, knee, and back pains.
Vionic footwear are available online at Zalora and http://vionicshoes.com.ph. If you prefer to shop offline, you can also find a complete list of stores at the website.

I love the Roth Wingtip. Very stylish. Do they cater orders overseas?
They look really comfy! Although I haven’t seen a style that suits my taste. Might be best to visit a store 🙂
I love comfortable shoes. I like Vionic’s style. They are simple yet I know I could easily wear them everyday. =)
i love the boots , better check the store then to see how it fits me and my budget
I’m gonna go save up for a men’s pair of slippers. My husband has a flat foot and often complains that some of his footwear are causing him pain. This would be perfwvt for him!
Love the Minna Ballet Flats! Just way above my budget for shoes though. 🙂
They look allnice! At first it makes me think about fitflops and dr.kong.. those therapeutic footwears are essential nowadays..
Vionic has pretty flats and slip ons but the prices are steep for me. They look nice pa naman.
I am all for comfortable foot wear too. Pacific Capitola is like FitFlop in style but looks like it’s made of softer material. Is it?
First time to hear about this brand. I love that it takes consideration comfort and health, which is so important for us moms.
