“These shoes are so comfortable, especially once they mold to your foot! I work in hospitality and I’m on my feet all day, they stay dry and don’t slip. Would definitely recommend!”
“They look even better in person than online. Love the hightop look! They're very comfortable -- like walking on a cloud -- but the treads are rugged. Great shoe!!”
“This is my 3 pair of Vessi , I am disappointed ☹️ with the purchase.. it’s too tight on my ankle and not comfortable as I expected.. I wore it 3 times now .. not feeling comfortable at all .”
Hi Mary,
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us.
We’re sorry to hear you’re finding your Vessis too tight. For some reference, however, it’s actually quite normal for the ankle opening to be a little snug to start. Over the first few wears of your new shoes, you’ll notice that the upper knit and ankle opening will stretch to accommodate your foot shape. By starting tighter, this allows the shoe to mold to your ankle shape - making sure no water seeps in through the ankle opening.
Some customers use a shoehorn in the meantime, which should help. You can also speed up the stretching process by leaving a few pairs of thick socks balled up inside the shoes overnight.
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.
“They are the best investment I have ever made! I walk, run, hike and all do my daily outings in these shoes! They go with everything and I want to buy 5 more pairs! I jump and walk through every puddle without and care in the world! I got my bf and his brother to buy pairs a week later! I HIGHLY recommend any shoe from Vessi!!!”
“I’m loving these shoes - I’ve never had a pair of sneakers fit so perfectly so immediately. They hug my foot just right and have been soo comfortable to walk in. The waterproof capability is so impressive and has been a lifesaver during my walks to work during this rainy winter! My feet are dry but are not overheating from wearing the shoes all day. Can’t recommend enough!”
“These are my third pair of Vessis. They are so comfortable and with lots of support for my weak ankles. I love Vessi so much! It’s the only company that I’ll be buying from again”
“Love these. They are so pretty in person and so easy to clean! It’s been raining a ton in my area in CA and I’ve been loving these! So amazing ! Will be purchasing again soon hopefully!”
