Great for travel
Traveled to NY in March and wanted some comfy shoes that would also work well in the rain. I wore these 5 out of the 7 days because they were so comfortable and easy to get on and off. No toe pinching, nice support...I was able to walk and walk in these all day with zero issues and no achy legs or feet at end of the day

Comfortable and understated. Runs long and wide.
Very nice midweight sneakers that are water repellant. Good for travel. I’m so tired of the heavy-looking sneaker trend — huge chunky clown-ish soles, multi-colored with massive logos plastered on the shoes — I’m looking at you, Hoka. These Vionics are more subtle (I ordered the light gray) which means I can wear them with many outfits. They’re refreshingly understated. I usually wear a 10W. The 10W in this shoe was both too long and too wide. I exchanged for 9.5 wide. We’ll see if it works. Thank you, Nordstrom, for always accommodating returns and exchanges. You’ve made me a life-long customer.

Liked but quality control is lacking
I really liked the shoe but had to reorder 3 times bc each time I was sent clearly worn and/or damaged shoes. I finally gave up. I don't live near a store so it's a pain to continually do returns by mail. Nordstrom quality has really taken a dive, this also happened with Keen shoes I ordered recently. Otherwise the cream color is gorgeous and they fit tts.

Well made and supportive
Very comfortable and cushioned. Supportive. Good arch support. More than any other tennis shoes. I ordered the 8.5 wide. Plenty of width. Ran half size too big for me. I sized down. Really great well made shoe.

Walk Max Sneaker WIDE - solution for bunions
I have been trying to find a comfortable walking shoe for so long, I ordered this same shoe in regular and even after using a shoe stretcher they were still hurting my bunions. I ordered the wide thinking they might be TOO big and wide but they're perfect. I have enough room but not too spacious where my foot is moving around. I am so thankful since these were final sale.
