Vionic Uptown Sneaker Lace-Up Trainers - Dark Grey Metallic - UK 3

The Vionic Uptown Sneaker Trainers are designed for casual wear and walking. While they offer excellent support and cushioning, they are not engineered for the specific demands of high-impact running activities.

Clean dry dirt with a suede brush. For stains, use a suede eraser. Avoid water and use specialized suede cleaning products if necessary. Allow to air dry if they get wet.

VIO MOTION Technology is Vionic's proprietary system that combines contoured arch support, shock-absorbing cushioning, a deep heel cup for stability, and forefoot flexibility to enhance comfort and promote natural foot alignment.

The footbed is designed with built-in support. While some users may find they can wear thin orthotics, the integrated VIO MOTION Technology aims to provide comprehensive support on its own. We recommend trying them without additional orthotics first.

The heel height of these trainers is approximately 1.625 inches.

No, the suede material is not waterproof. Exposure to significant moisture can damage the suede. It is recommended to treat them with a water-repellent spray designed for suede.

These trainers incorporate Vionic's biomechanical technology, focusing on enhanced arch support, stability, and alignment, which differentiates them from standard fashion sneakers that typically lack these supportive features.

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks, try a suede eraser. Always brush in one direction for best results.

Suede can stretch slightly with wear. Try wearing them for short periods indoors to allow them to mold to your feet. Ensure laces are not over-tightened.

This is a common adjustment period for those new to supportive footwear. Wear them for gradually increasing periods each day. If discomfort persists after a week, consider if the specific arch placement suits your foot biomechanics.
