Brand Name Change FAQ's



Why did Orthaheel change to Vionic?


While customers like what the Orthaheel foot bed and support does for them, they didn't really like the brand name. The feedback we received was that it sounded a bit "old" and "orthopedic". After testing ideas with both current and prospective consumers, the preferred name was Vionic. To them it sounded fresh, modern and technical. By keeping "with Orthaheel Technology", it provides assurance that Vionic still offers the same great support they love in their current Orthaheel products.

The company was not sold, and did not merge with another company. We have the exact same Leadership Team and our founder, Phil Vasyli continues to be our chairman.


What happened to Orthaheel?
