FAQs
What is VIO MOTION Technology?
VIO MOTION Technology is Vionic's proprietary system that includes contoured arch support, advanced cushioning, a deep heel cup for stability, and forefoot flexibility to promote natural foot alignment and comfort.
Are these shoes suitable for people with flat feet?
Yes, the Vionic Darcy Sneaker features built-in contoured arch support and stability features that are often beneficial for individuals with flat feet or plantar fasciitis.
Can I remove the insole?
The VIO MOTION footbed is integrated into the shoe and is not designed to be removed. The shoe is engineered to provide support with this built-in technology.
How do I clean the white mesh upper?

What is the purpose of the APMA Seal of Acceptance?

What is the return policy?
Please refer to the specific retailer's return policy for details on returns and exchanges, as this can vary.
Troubleshooting
Initial discomfort or feeling of unevenness
This is often normal due to the VIO MOTION Technology's supportive nature. Follow the recommendation to wear the shoes for short periods and gradually increase wear time. Allow your feet a few days to adapt to the new support.
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have followed the break-in period. If the shoes still feel consistently tight after adaptation, double-check that you have selected the correct size. The mesh upper offers some flexibility, but proper sizing is crucial.
Squeaking sound during walking
This can sometimes occur if the insole rubs against the shoe base. Try applying a small amount of powder under the insole (if accessible) or check for any debris that might be causing friction.
