Womens Uptown Willa Loafers

Web ID: 21249355Be Careful. Sole does not grip well...
I purchased two pairs of this shoe for travel. I wore them around the house before my trip. They are very comfortable right out of the box. The leather is so yummy and soft. They pack well but I did have a "major" issue while wearing them on my recent trip. The first time I wore them was at an outdoor venue in Costa Rica. We were told to wear closed toe shoes. I had to walk on sections of a semi damp tile floor and step into a hanging gondola with a metal floor. While stepping into gondela, my foot slipped on the metal floor and my lower leg (outside the gondola) slammed into the outer metal base of the gondola floor. Let me tell you that did not tickle by any means. I still have the lump 12 days later. After the ride I was trying to walk out of the venue and it was like walking on ice blocks. I could not walk and almost fell several times. This would have ruined the trip for both myself and my spouse. I had to hold on to my husband's arm to safely exit the place. I was still slipping while holding on to him. It was crazy. I was very surprised as I own many pairs of Vionics. These are advertised as being for travel. By the looks of the sole, it does appear to have the ability to grip the ground. Now I was not hiking or doing anything that would required a more rugged shoe. Just walking normally. I am physically fit and don't have any issues there. I felt it was important to make other women aware of this. If you are a senior or not well balanced on your feet I'm afraid you might fall as I almost did. Hitting you head, back or hip on that hard tile floor would have put an end to a vacation that had just began. Buyer beware.

Very disappointed.
Heard a lot about Vionic thought I would try a pair. Wore the Willa for a week. They say lightweight, I say flimsy. No support at all. Very disappointed.

Fit like a glove!
From the minute I put them on they felt wonderful! I was a little worried because the day after they arrived I wore them to the airport for a trip. They were perfect for all the airport walking and vacation walking. I will definitely buy more colors and styles of this shoe.
