Vionic Tide II Islander Black Orthotic Women's Sandals

Holidays, beach trips and garden parties can all involve standing and walking for long periods of time, but sandals and other open footwear don't always support you as fully as regular shoes. The Vionic Tide II Islander Black Orthotic Women's Sandals address this problem, providing your feet with expertly crafted support that doesn't impinge on the style of your shoes!

What's Included?

• 1 x Pair of Black Sandals

How Do the Vionic Tide II Islander Sandals Reduce Foot Pain?

• By Providing Support: The Islander Orthotic Sandals have been designed by podiatrists to stabilise, support and realign your feet. This not only reduces foot pain, but also aligns your body to reduce ankle, knee, and back pain too.

• By Absorbing Shock: While many sandals are made with cheaper materials that do not protect your feet, Vionic Orthotic Sandals feature a medium-density EVA midsole. EVA is a shock-absorbent material that can reduce stress on your feet, even when walking or standing for longer periods of time.

• By Using Softer Materials: The toe-post of the Tide Islander Sandals is made from soft-woven material to prevent irritation between your toes, and the sandals also feature padded straps to reduce rubbing.

Who Can Use the Vionic Black Orthotic Sandals?

If you're out in the sun, either at home or on holiday, it always feels great to let your feet breathe. What's less great, however, is the foot pain that an be associated to walking around in unsupportive sandals.

The Vionic Islander Sandals have been designed for use by women who want a little more support from their open footwear. They are perfect for use on the beach, on the streets, by the pool or anywhere where you want your feet to feel free.

What Sizes Are Available?

The Vionic Tide Islander Black Sandals are available in five sizes, from UK Size 4 to UK Size 8. If you normally wear a half size, we would recommend selecting the size below your normal size rather than the size above to ensure a better fit.

Our Top Tip for Fitting Your Vionic Sandals

For the greatest comfort, our product experts recommend wearing the new footwear for just a couple of hours at first, which will allow you to adapt to the level of support. After about a week or two, your new sandals should feel completely comfortable and supportive!

Stylish and Sleek Black Design

Black is the colour that you can pair with almost any outfit, making these shoes a versatile addition to your closet. While some orthotic shoes can look ungainly, the simple and low-key design of the Islander Sandals is perfect for wearing on holiday, on the beach, or at the park.

Our Guide to Finding the Perfect Size and Fit

Using Your Shoe Size

For most of our insoles, the easiest way to find the best size for you is to go off of your current shoe size. The majority of our insoles are available in a range of sizes and you can simply select the size that best fits your existing shoes.

Please be aware that, as with shoes, there can be slight variations in the size of insoles. For example a size 8 of one brand might not be exactly the same size and width as the size 8 of another. To help account for these discrepancies, a number of our insoles include dimensions to help you ensure you're getting the right size.

Measuring Your Current Insoles

While using your shoe size to find your best size is a good guide, it is not always foolproof. If you want to guarantee that your insole fit your shoes as closely as possible, we recommend measuring your existing insole and using this as a guide to your size.

To do this, please follow the steps outlined below:

1. Remove the existing insole from the shoes you wish to use your new insoles with (please note that not all insoles are removable)
2. Measure the insoles at their longest and widest points (see the below diagram for an idea of where this will be
3. Match the measurements to the dimensions of the insoles listed, and choose the size that best fits your results

Where Can I Find the Dimensions?

The dimensions for insoles can be found on the "Product Details" tab (please see below) and are usually found in the sizing section of the listing, in a table. Please be aware that not all products currently have the dimensions listed.

The dimensions of insoles can usually be found on the "Product Details" tab

What If There Are No Dimensions Listed?

If you do not see the dimensions listed on the Product Details tab, please fill in the form below and we will work to get the relevant information as quickly as possible. We will email you once we have the information that you have requested.

Trimming Your Insoles to Fit

To get the ultimate level of fit from your insoles, you can trim them to make a small adjustment. To trim your insoles, simply follow the steps below:

1. Remove your existing insoles from your shoes
2. Line up your existing and new insoles at the heel
3. Trace the outline of the insoles against the new pair at the toe end (see the image below for an example)
4. Carefully cut along the traced line
5. Your insoles should now fit your shoes better

Carefully trace the outline of your insole

Please note that not all insoles are suitable for trimming. Most insoles are unsuitable for return once they have been trimmed to fit; we recommend bearing this in mind prior to trimming.
