Full details
The Vionic Reyes Slingback Block Heel in Black (UK 9) is designed for adult women seeking a stylish yet comfortable dress shoe for various occasions, from weddings to evenings out. Its key benefit is the integration of VIO MOTION Technology, providing exceptional arch support, cushioning, and stability for all-day wear, a rare feature in high heels. A potential caveat is that while engineered for comfort, the heel height may still require some adjustment for those unaccustomed to wearing heels.

FAQs
What is the heel height of the Vionic Reyes Slingback?
The heel height is approximately 5.5 cm (about 2.17 inches). The platform height is approximately 2.4 cm.
Are these shoes suitable for people with flat feet?
Yes, the Vionic Reyes Slingbacks are specifically designed with VIO MOTION Technology, including contoured arch support, making them highly suitable for individuals who need additional support for their arches.
Can I wear these shoes all day?
Yes, they are engineered for all-day comfort thanks to the VIO MOTION Technology, shock-absorbing cushioning, and balanced pressure distribution. However, as with any heel, individual comfort may vary.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is made of premium leather.
How do I clean the leather upper?
Wipe the leather with a soft, dry cloth. For stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner suitable for black leather, following the product instructions carefully.
What type of closure does this shoe have?
It features an adjustable ankle strap with a buckle closure for a secure and customizable fit.
What makes these heels different from other high heels?
The key difference is the integrated VIO MOTION Technology, which provides the orthotic support and cushioning typically found in comfortable flats, but within a stylish high heel design, tested by Heeluxe for superior comfort and balance.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable after initial wear.
Allow a break-in period of a few wears. The leather and internal cushioning will adapt to your foot's shape. Ensure the ankle strap is adjusted correctly for optimal support.
Ankle strap is difficult to buckle.
Gently guide the buckle through the strap holes. If the strap feels too short, ensure you have the correct size. If it feels too long, the buckle should still allow for a secure fit without excessive overlap.
Slight squeaking sound when walking.
This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole or around the heel area where the sound originates. Ensure no part of the shoe is rubbing excessively.
Arch support feels too pronounced initially.
This is normal for shoes with significant orthotic support. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time as your feet adjust to the contoured footbed.
