FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for walking long distances?

How should I clean the woven leather?
Gently wipe with a soft, damp cloth. Use a leather-safe cleaner for stains and allow to air dry naturally away from direct sunlight.
Is the sizing consistent with standard UK sizing?

What is the heel height?
The Gracia flats feature a 0.5-inch heel with a 0.25-inch platform.
Troubleshooting
Feeling discomfort during the first wear
Vionic shoes often require a short 'break-in' period of 1-2 weeks as your feet adjust to the new orthotic alignment; wear them for a few hours at a time initially.
Leather looks dull
Apply a small amount of leather conditioner or polish designed for your shoe color to restore natural luster.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these flats feature built-in orthotic support, they are ready to wear immediately without the need for additional inserts. To maintain the appearance of the leather, wipe the surface with a soft, dry cloth to remove loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a high-quality leather cleaner appropriate for the material and color. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or exposing them to excessive direct heat, as this may degrade the leather and the integrity of the footbed. Store in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture buildup within the lining.
