Vionic Orthopedic Cosmina Sublime Women’s Mule Slippers for Heel Pain and Plantar Fasciitis with Arch Support Medium Fit

These are just what I was looking for! I was given vionic insoles by my hospital after rupturing a tendon, giving me a painful, flat foot. The consultant says I must always use said insoles. However at home I don’t tend to wear shoes… and this is where these slippers come in - they feel the same as the supplied insoles made by the same company. And now I can wear slippers rather than my walking boots in the house!They are very fluffy and the pink colour looks really nice. Yes, the bottom of the shoe is not squishy - you would not expect it to be if it is providing proper support though. But the overall feeling is soft just because of the fabric and the softeners of the uppers. The sole of the slipper would be quite ok for going outside in - the bottom is hard.I’m delighted with these - they are a game changer for me. I want to get more in a different colour when I can afford it!

These slippers have changed my life. I have been in so much pain and from the moment I put them on my feet feel better. I don’t want to take them off. So pleased with them that I have now ordered some insoles to wear with my other shoes. Shame I can’t wear my slippers outside!!

Expensive but worth it for the comfort

Really happy with them.. comfortable and helping my heel pain

I bought these slippers for suspected Tendonitis / Plantar fasciitis, as I was unable to walk on my foot for a week and it still didn’t heal after 2 weeks.All I can say is these slippers are amazing - they have literally cured my foot from the pain I was experiencing! I wouldn’t normally spend this much on slippers, but I had read so much about Vionic slippers being the best support for foot problems.These slippers are lovely and warm and I love the style and colour - they don’t look old fashioned compared to other supportive slippers on the market.After reading the other reviews… these slippers are not fashion slippers. They are supportive for your feet and it will take a few days to get use to them! Don’t expect cushion soft.

They don’t fit and they gave me so much pain. On top of this they now started to squeegee when I walk around. What a horrible and very expensive piece of rubbish Don’t buy them

Gosh, I wish I could find more for the price I paid a year and a half ago - under $30! I usually hate shoes and slippers without a heel or heel strap, because I inevitably end up curling my toes to grip them to keep them on when walking!!! Honestly, I needed new slippers, and my previous Vionic pair had scratchy Velcro and open toes, and I'd worn holes right through the footbed lining (I had them for at least 5 years). Anyways, I wanted easy on & off, warm slippers with closed toes, and they HAD to be Vionic, and I was trying to save money, so for the price I couldn't NOT buy them! X) I ended up falling in love with them instantly. No more curled cramped toes! No more cold toes! The thickness and faux fur (feels like rabbit fur, but without the animal cruelty) helps keep them on without any issue. Sadly today, I stepped on a disgusting soaking wet spongy rug in my basement after discovering a leak that ruined many things in storage... this rug was in front of my fuel oil furnace, and a previous tenant in my home had filled their own tank and then bled the lines and spilled, so there is oil, dirt, dust, dog hair and general grossness in that corner. When I stepped on the rug not realizing it was wet at all, it squished down and splashed muddy, disgusting, DARK water onto my slippers and nightgown. Of course, I bought the cheapest slipper in the brand I love, in the beautiful creamy white fur with the blue and pink stripe. FML!!! *cry* So now I'm back to find more - I could have a pair for each level of my house - and cannot find them anywhere. When I got mine they were called "Karma". The exact same slippers in other colors are now called "Cosmina". A month ago I had looked (and should have jumped on them) and the black and brown ones were available in my size and around $40. Now they only have 2 sizes (super small and super big), and they are in the $100 range. *cringe* I am a person with no business owning anything WHITE or CREAM color, but I did love them. This last Easter, when dying eggs, I splashed BLACK professional grade food coloring onto them, but managed to get it off by blotting it up and wiping with cold water, and then a baby wipe. Amazing! But I think it may take some work to get fuel oil (deisel #2 gas), mud and grime off of them, IF I can even remove it. Anyways...TL;DR If you suffer from Plantar Fasciitis or Metatarsalgia, or perhaps other foot conditions, I cannot say enough good things about Vionic! My pain doctor recommended them years ago, and I cannot live without them! I also occasionally have bouts of edema/swelling of my feet from certain medications (gabapentin, pregabalin, etc), and when they swell, I can ONLY fit my sausage feet into my Vionics! I used to live barefoot or in Crocs, and they wrecked my feet after 20 years! As good as they felt, they are terrible for long term use! Anyways, Vionics I own include platform flip flops (which are sometimes too wide, even at the tightest setting, which has caused me to roll an ankle a few times), the Velcro slippers, these slippers and sherpa insoles (in my bearpaw winter boots). I try to keep my eyes open for sales or used (but excellent - like new condition) because I am very poor, but if I had more money, I'd buy them at full price, and they are worth it! Since I've been exclusively wearing them for almost 2 years, I've not had any PF flare-ups!!! The one time last summer when I slipped on some canvas toms style shoes just to mow the lawn, my PF flared up for 3 weeks! If you've never had PF, you'll want to invest in quality shoes with arch support and heel cups, or you will know pain that is nearly impossible to relieve with even narcotic pain meds! It's like bad tooth pain... some meds just don't or can't touch that pain! Avoid flat shoes at all costs!*For reference, I wear between a US shoe size 8 and 9, with an average width, and average arch, with pronating ankles. All of my Vionics have run a bit big (but my feet swell, so I need that space at times), but I've read that if they don't have a half size available, do not size down a full size. It may be okay with open heel shoes, mules, sandals, flip flops and slippers, but I haven't had the guts to try it yet. All of mine are size 9, but I think an 8 or 8.5 may have fit a bit better. :)

My best friend has these slippers and I was complaining about my feet hurting in my slippers, especially after replacing all our flooring with hard wood, and she let me try hers. Wow! They felt so good and soft, but have a nice firm sole. I bought a pair and have almost not taken them off! I literally wore them to work (on "pajama day") at my middle school. The three zone orthotic insoles just make my feet feel so good and in the right position. My back and knees feel better as well. I normally wear a 9 or 9.5W and purchased the 9s and they are perfect! I have bunions on both feet and they have never hurt in these slippers!!! Such a relief after a day at school on my feet! I will be looking into Vionic shoes now! Great purchase...sturdy, comfy, and stylish! Trifecta!

When I first put them on, I was surprised at how rock hard the foot bed is and was a little unsure, but after walking around in them for a while, I grew to love them. I have plantar fasciitis and can walk without pain (or very little) wearing these slippers. You can tell they were designed by someone who understands problem feet. I think for someone without problem feet, they'd be too hard. If you have PF, they are DEFINITELY worth the money, and you should give them a try. I'm going on vacation, and despite their bulkiness, they're getting packed into my carryon. Also love the fuzzy look. May buy a second pair for the office for long nights.

These feel firm at first but if you are used to wearing orthotic insoles you will be loving them in no time. So soft and cozy, great fit. I would give them five stars but they are not machine washable so I gave them four.

I had a pair of Vionic sandals and started to notice that when I wore them around the house, I didn’t have as many body aches as when I walked around in just socks. When winter came, I really missed the comfort of the sandles but needed warmth. I waited a while to buy these but am so glad that I did. I have high arches and these provide so much support. They are the perfect level of warmth. They feel fuzzy inside but can also handle a little sweat without getting gross. If you don’t like how they feel immediately, give your feet a few days to adjust to them.
