Vionic with Orthaheel Technology - Wave Men's & Women's Sandal
Rated Reviews | Write a ReviewThe Vionic with Orthaheel Technology Wave Healthy Flip Flop Sandal for men and women provides a foot friendly, doctor-approved alternative to the flimsy piece of plastic that many drugstores are passing off as sandals these days. Podiatrist designed and podiatrist approved, the Orthaheel Wave provides biomechanical correction for pronation and improper weight distribution that can lead to back pain, knee pain, ankle pain, heel pain, and other ambulatory challenges. The Vionic by Orthaheel Wave is a lightweight, and convenient thong sandal that is perfect for the beach, the park, or anywhere else where you may need to kick off your shoes at a moment's notice to fully enjoy the sand, the grass, or the water on your toes.
Merchant Note: If you typically wear a half size, we recommend that when ordering Orthaheel Arch Support Thong Sandals you order a half size down. For example, if you normally wear an 8.5, we recommend you order a size 8.

My son is 14 and I ordered these flip flops for him as he is a severe pronator and is required to wear special inserts/shoes. These flip flops he said felt GREAT on his feet and do help with support for his pronation. THANK YOU for allowing my son to enjoy summer with his feet bare and still comfortable.

My husband loves wearing flip flops however due to recent pain went to see a podiatrist. He was told not to wear flip flops any more because he needed a shoe that would better support his flat feet. I decided to try the Vionic Flip Flop Sandal based on other reviews. Wearing the Vionic's has completely eliminated the pain and my husband is thrilled that he doesn't need to give up his flip flops!

I posted a very positive review of this shoe 3 years ago, and have purchased several more pairs since then. Recently, however, I went from enthusiastic fan to disillusioned customer. The last pair I bought stretched out after only a couple of wearings to the point where they are uncomfortable and the right sandal feels like it is falling off all the time. I wrote to customer service at both Healthy Feet Store and Orthaheel through the "Contact us" pages on their websites, and got no response whatsoever. I wasn't expecting any reimbursement, as I had worn them a few times by that point, but I did expect that I would get the courtesy of some kind of reply. At this point I don't think I would order again from either Healthy Feet Store or Orthaheel, and I am informing all the people I recommended them to about this experience.

I have been wearing this shoe to death and it shows no wear. I was having horrible problems with my feet. I am in the Army and was wearing boots constantly. I developed Plantar's fascitis (sic) and when amazed when I started recovering almost immediately after getting these shoes and orthaheel inserts. I am one of the biggest fans of these.

I love to go barefoot around the house all year round, and in the yard in the summer. A couple of years ago I was diagnosed with posterior tibial tendon dysfunction in my right foot, and now it hurts if I go barefoot for more than a few minutes. These flip flops saved me. Most that I have tried that claim to offer arch support are too subtle in that area; these offer ample support in a comfortable flip flop. I would recommend them to anyone who thought they couldn't find sufficient arch support in this type of shoe.

These flip flops are comfortable, with good arch support, but they squeek when I walk. Maybe that\'ll quit after time.

No, we do not. HealthyFeetStore.com is an online store with our warehouse and administrative office based out of Walpole, MA. Please call 866.324.3338 or email cservice@healthyfeetstore.com for any questions.
The most accurate size can be obtained by getting your feet measured at a department store or shoe store. Shoe sizes are not uniform and do vary by shoe manufacturers.
The difference between shoe lengths is approximately 1/3 inch and the difference between widths is approximately 1/8 inch.
We also have a sizing chart on our web site. This sizing chart can be used for European to U.S. sizing conversions and has the approximate inches per size. Keep in mind that most retail shoes are medium width.
If your shoes are too small or too big, we offer free exchanges. Please contact us at 866.324.3338 so we can assist you with your exchange.
Please read our Total Delivery Time calculation page to help you estimate your package’s time of arrival.
If your shoes have shipped, you should have received an e-mail with the tracking number. If not, please call us at 866.324.3338 with your order number and/or full name.
Once your order is placed, you will be contacted as soon as possible if the order is not in stock. Once your order ships, you will be e-mailed the tracking number to track the package. If you have any questions, you can always call us at 1-866-324-3338 to check availability.
Most of our shoes are not available for overnight shipping.
We can ship foot care products and most slippers overnight within the continental United States. The order will be shipped UPS and the cost will be $34.95.
If the order is placed before noon (Pacific Time), your products will ship that day. If the product or slippers are ordered after noon (Pacific Time), they will ship the next day.
We also offer express shipping which is available for most shoes and products (excluding Kumfs, Finn Comfort and some New Balance shoes.) With express shipping, you will receive the shoes, products or slippers in about three to five business days after your order has been processed. That might be a more reasonable option if you need your order quickly.
If the tracking number says the package was delivered but you did not receive it, please check your front, side and back yards. Ask neighbors if they received the package by mistake or if they saw where the UPS or USPS worker put the package. If the package was shipped to an apartment/condo complex or an office building, check with the front desk or management office. If you still do not find the package, call UPS with the tracking information and ask for assistance. Once you have attempted to find the package and it is still missing, call us and we will assist you.
What you are seeing is an "authorization" for the charge, not the actual "charge." The authorization is made when you place the order to inform your bank to reserve the funds to complete the purchase. The actual charge replaces the authorization when the order is processed. The actual charge may not exceed the authorization charge.
We want you to be 100% happy with your order. You may return defective shoes within 30 days of purchase. Please call us at 866.324.3338 about your defective shoes and we will set up a free return for you. Normal wear and tear of the shoes is not considered a defect.
When an order says it is “Pending Review,” it usually indicates there is something in the billing or shipping information that does not match the (credit) card provided. We will call you if this means that your order will be delayed. If you are concerned about your order, please call customer service and we can look into it for you.
Please read through our Return Information page.
Please read through our Exchange Information page.
Our Exchange & Return Form can be downloaded on our web site. (It is also found on our home page.) Please print the form and fill it out.
Credits will be issued within 10 business days. We do not refund the shipping costs. We will email you when your return is complete and your account has been credited. Please note: After your credit is processed, it may take an additional week for the funds to show in your account. Most banks take approximately a week to transfer funds on a credit.
If you return shoes 30 days after you received the shoes, we will issue you a store credit. Please read our Return Policy here.
The cost of the products will not be included on the packing slip.
No, we do not work with insurance companies or Medicare. The codes on some pages are provided as a guideline in selecting products that adhere to the strict guideline established by the U.S. government. The Therapeutic Shoe Bill (which pays for shoes for at risk Diabetics) was designed to ensure that at-risk diabetics were actually fit by a skilled practitioner to check the fit of the shoe on the foot to decrease the odds of amputation.
All of our shoes are orthopedic, diabetic or therapeutic.
90 % of our shoes have removable insoles and have added depth. Each shoe will specify under "Special Features" if it has removable insoles and added depth.
Go to here for instructions.
It is suggested that you remove the existing inserts and unlace the shoe completely. Check the length of the new insert against the existing insert, and trim to fit if necessary. Insert the new insert making sure to butt the heel and roll the orthotic into the toe section. Next put the shoes on and stand up, making sure the insert is lying flat. Next, lace the shoes to conform to the unique shape of your foot.
Each manufacturer gets to establish their own width standards. Some width sizes are in even numbers and some are in odd numbers. A 2E with one manufacturer might be the same as a 3E with another. Again, the difference between each width size is about 1/8th of an inch.
A 2E and a 5E are the same width for slippers, but the upper is enhanced by ˝” to allow for the increased width.
Most of the shoe & slipper brands we carry have shoes with excellent arch support. If you have questions on a specific brand or style, feel free to call our customer service staff at 866.324.2228.
In addition, most of our shoes have removable footbeds to accommodate your custom orthotics or over the counter arch support insoles. You can put arch supports insoles into any shoe that has a removable footbed. Shoes with a removable insole or shoes that have extra depth make it easier to put an insole or arch support in them.
A 3/4 arch support extends from the ball of the foot (right behind the toes) to the heel. A full length insole extends the entire length of the foot. A 3/4 length insole is more appropriate for dress shoes or those with hammertoes, crossed toes or bunions that may need that extra room. The full length insole offers cushioning the entire length of the foot and is trimmable with ordinary household scissors.
Please look at our stretchable shoe and extra-extra depth shoe sections.
Also, please look at our adjustable strap slipper collection. Choose slippers that are soft and flexible - the perfect remedy for swollen feet.
Most of our slippers are made of high quality materials and offer added arch support. Slippers with arch supports and removable footbeds can be found in the Old Friend, Cloud Nine and Giesswein collections.
Most children’s shoes are built, intentionally, without arch support. They offer a smooth platform for developing muscles, or a nice bed for an upgrade orthotic. KidZerts Children’s Insoles are perfect for young growing feet because they provide exceptional arch support, a deep heel cup, and wear-moldable technology, which means that over time they'll conform to the unique size of each individual foot for improved foot health, support and stability. Pedag offers insoles from childhood through adulthood, starting with the Bambini. Arch Angels were designed to supply a firm posting to their arch support. And the Birkenstocks are lean to fit any style shoe and provide a silk lined, deep heel cup, with a metatarsal pad.
For the Mothers, we offer “sensible” heels from Softwalk, Naot or Kumfs.
For the Dads, we would suggest PW Minor, Comfortrite or Naot.
We have a number of products that can assist you. We recommend On Your Toes (which is one of our best selling products), Cedar Shoe Trees or our newest odor-eating item, Stuffitts Shoe Savers.
