text: I purchased my first pair of Vionics shoes serendipitously right before I ended up breaking my left foot and my right ankle.  (The Women's Relax Luxe Slipper).  I LOVED the arch support, and they were miracles for plantar fasciitis.  (No pain!)  I even had my husband try them on because he's always interested in shoe brands with proper support (even though they were fuzzy and pink, he tried them on at my urging and loved the support.  &#34;Very comfy&#34; - his words.)  And after my injury, they were fantastic during my recovery - I could wear a regular shoe on my right foot (with the broken ankle - I wore this vionic luxe slipper), with an ankle brace, while I healed.  They kept my foot aligned and in proper form, so that the bone would stay in the right place.  The velcro straps on the top were adjustable too.<br /><br />This Aubrey style, however, has three straps over the top that are way too short to be considered adjustable. I followed everyone's advice and ordered one size up (a size 10 - I normally wear a 9 or a 9.5).  And the foot bed fits fine - it's why it's getting 2 stars instead of just 1.  But the straps across the top are laughably short.  If you consider a centimeter here or there enough give for adjustability, then sure, these are adjustable.  But the velcro does not extend enough for anyone with a high arch.  And when I say it's not adjustable for anyone with a high arch, I mean, for anyone with even the HINT of a high arch.  I happen to have VERY high arches, but even if my feet were flatter, these would be strangling the top of my foot.  And my super high arches were fine in the aforementioned fuzzy pink vionic slippers with adjustable straps.<br /><br />For those who gave this shoe 5 stars, they likely fall within the &#34;just right&#34; category of people who happen to have the EXACT foot the product was modeled for.  Also, the foot bed IS molded like the typical vionic foot bed, and that's why I gave it the extra star.  (I could not walk inthem long enough to truly know how supportive they would be, long-term.)  But for the general population, I would not really consider these very adjustable.<br /><br />I will probably be returning mine.  But if you're unable to so, my MacGyver idea is to buy a pair of Hikies (replacement for shoelaces) and loop them between the strap and the metal hole for the strap.  Or use a matching hair tie/scrunchie to span the distance.  Will this be an attractive solution?  No.  But you might get them to fit over the top of your foot, if you don't want to toss them.
