“I love the fit of my shoes , walking or stationary. Because of the softness of the material, my bunions doesn’t hurt specially when wearing almost the whole day (feet expand). Most important keeping my feet dry on wet /paddle ground. Love to own another colour for my travel. Cheers! Socks were incredible too. My husband and I are proud wearer of Vessi shoes, well recommended !!”
“The ankle support is lower than I'd like. They also irritate my heels more (worried about blisters) and are taking longer to break in. I liked my Everyday Classics a lot more.”
Hi Kelsey,
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us.
I'm sorry to hear you have been experiencing discomfort at the back of your ankles from your shoes. Our ankle opening is a little firm to start, therefore you could experience some discomfort before it stretches out to perfectly accommodate your feet. I would definitely recommend giving your feet time to heal before giving your shoes a try again. Here are a few tips that can help once you start wearing your shoes again.
Wearing thicker socks that provide extra cushioning on that area will give the shoes time to adjust to your foot. Adding something to cover up that area will allow the shoes to adjust to your foot so they can fit you perfectly. Finally, another thing you can try doing is to insert a pair of heel liners into your Vessis for more cushioning. Heel stickers from Dr. Scholls can work really well too.
As a casual/city shoe, Vessis do provide relatively low arch support. Some people love this, while others find it doesn’t work well for them. This is why we made the insoles removable so you have the option of using your own inserts for a more customized fit and comfort.
That said, I'll be sure to pass your feedback along to our Product team, as we are always looking to improve. We'll use your insight towards our research and development for our future design improvements.
Thank you again for sharing your thoughts on your Vessis with us.
