If there’s one person you can turn to for real intel on what’s comfortable, it’s Oprah Winfrey. The queen of all things cozy has lofty standards when it comes to footwear, but Vionic shoes have won her over time and time again.

For three years in a row, she included the brand in her annual Favorite Things list, raving about cushy slippers and touting the arch support of one pair of slip-ons that she called “super comfortable.” Right now, you can see what the hype is about for yourself because there’s a stylish pair of lace-up sneakers on sale at Zappos for under $100.

Vionic Nova Sneakers

The Vionic Nova sneakers have a retro two-tone aesthetic with a subtle pop of shimmer via a metallic overlay. They have chunky soles without looking too orthotic, but most importantly, they’re extremely supportive. The contouring soles have brought relief to people with foot issues like bunions and plantar fasciitis. The mix of perforated leather and textile panels on the upper gives your feet optimal breathability and the shoes a stylish contrast. 

“I can work 12 hours a day on my feet and they feel great,” one Zappos reviewer wrote about these Vionic sneakers. Another bought the shoes for a trip to Rome, saying, “I [spent] hours on my feet walking and climbing hills and stairs each day.” They gave the sneakers five stars and wrote that their Vionics didn’t let them down during their travels.

Reviewers call the sneaker a four-season shoe, noting that it’s especially fitting for fall considering the autumnal colors. Zappos has the shoe in cream and a pinkish-beige hue, both on sale for $95, which is up to 30 percent off the usual price.

Besides Oprah, nurses, podiatrists, and other healthcare workers who know a thing or two about supportive shoes love the Vionic brand. Another Zappos reviewer wrote, “I walk miles a day in them and they’re great for my flat feet. Stylish, comfortable, with inserts that help protect my knees from turning inward.” The Nova style is frequently described as wider than the average shoe, but even people with narrow feet have rated the sneaker five stars, noting that they actually appreciate the extra roominess.

Hurry and treat your feet to these Oprah-approved kicks while they’re up to $40 off at Zappos. Who knows — Oprah’s 2024 Favorite Things list is coming in November, and these might just be on it.
