How to Spot a Fake: Stay Safe When Shopping Vionic Online

At Vionic, we’re committed to alignment for the whole you—that means supporting not just your posture and movement, but your entire shopping experience too. Our Vio-Motion™ technology is built on trust, science, and integrity. So when imitation websites pop up pretending to be us, it’s not just frustrating—it goes against everything we stand for.
Here’s how to stay protected and make sure you’re only shopping genuine Vionic.
Why Fake Sites Are on the Rise
As our community grows and more Canadians discover the difference of Vionic’s science-backed support, fraudulent websites have tried to take advantage of that trust. These sites may look convincing but are designed to scam—offering products they won’t ship, collecting personal information, or stealing payment details.
How to Spot a Scam Site
When in doubt, keep these quick checks in mind:
- Check the URL – Our only Canadian website is vionicshoes.ca. If it looks slightly off—like a strange domain or odd spelling—it’s probably a fake.
- Look for typos or low-res images – We take pride in our design and quality. If the site looks unprofessional or inconsistent, that’s a red flag.
- Too-good-to-be-true prices – We love a good sale—but if it looks too extreme (especially on new collections), tread carefully.
- Check for contact info – Legitimate retailers offer customer service support. If there’s no phone number, address, or responsive email, pause.
- Verify with online tools – Use trusted resources like the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre or consult Get Cyber Safe’s tips and tools.
What to Do If You Suspect a Fake
If you come across a suspicious website or think you’ve interacted with a fraudulent seller pretending to be Vionic, please report it to the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre—or let us know so we can take action on our end too.
Together, we can help protect other Canadian shoppers from online scams.
Shop Smart, Shop Aligned
Vionic is more than just stylish footwear—it’s about moving through life in balance. Our exclusive Vio-Motion™ support system is found only in genuine Vionic products, available at vionicshoes.ca and through our network of authorized retailers.
Shop smart to protect your alignment from head to toe—and safeguard your wallet while you’re at it.
