And they’re *also* machine washable!
Vivaia is a small shoe brand founded in 2020 with the mission to create stylish and high-quality footwear. Many of the brand’s shoes are made from recycled water bottles, and they’ve implemented a production process that actively works to reduce waste.
BuzzFeed Shopping writer Emma Lord says, “You probably recognize the brand name from a bajillion Instagram posts that are like ‘I DANCED THE NIGHT AWAY IN THESE HEELS!!’ for the heeled version of these, but damn if they aren’t right. These didn’t cut into the back of my heel at all, and felt comfy enough that I walked as easily as I would in my usual sneakers, if not easier since these are SO so lightweight. I took these on a recent trip to London where I was walking 20,000+ steps a day, and can confirm they hold up in rain (boy howdy did we get a lot of it). Plus anytime muck got on them it was easy to scrub it off with soap and water. I’m so excited to have finally found a pair of flats comfortable enough to trek in that I am truly sitting on my HANDS trying not to buy them in every color.”
Promising review: “The second I had these on I was comfortable. This means a lot to me as I suffer from plantar fasciitis and have more limited choices in shoes these days. Vivaia is a go-to for me because of the fantastic arch support, and these did not disappoint. Like walking on clouds. They are the perfect height, summer style, and happy feet.” —Matthew R.
