“I have been waiting for a verrrryyyy long time to purchase a pair of Vessi shoes — I entered every single giveaway too...you know, just in case I was lucky enough to actually be picked. Sure enough, I was one of the lucky teachers who received a pair and I have literally worn them every single day since I received them!
First, they fit so comfortable and almost feel as if you’re wearing a sock. The first day or two may be a “tighter” fit as the knit conforms to your individual foot, but it’s not anywhere near discomforting as some shoes are to “break in”.
I love how simplistic they are, yet how distinctive they are at the same time. You can clearing tell they’re Vessis, but they’re not over-the-top “yelling” their brand to the public eye.
My absolute favourite thing about wearing them? The fact that I can jump in puddles with my two-year-old daughter on a whim and not have to worry about wet feet. I love that I can go for walks with her in her adorable rainboots and not have to worry about avoiding the wet grass, or puddles. I love the fact that while I’m at work, I can be comfortable and carefree as I interact with my students, indoors and outdoors — especially during those duties that rainy enough to wet everything but not rainy enough to call inclement weather. :)
Flat out: Amazing.”
Hey Ashlee,
This is amazing! We're so thankful for your support and are happy to hear about your fun experiences in your Vessis. Thank you for all that you do as a teacher, we're glad your Vessis can keep you company especially during your long work days.
Hi Elexis,
Thank you for the kind words and support! We hope that we'll be able to keep your feet dry during your coaching sessions. Happy puddle hunting :)
“Beyond stoked on these shoes. Highly recommend for hikers or people in a lot of rain. I have bunions and honestly usually have a hard time finding shoes, or it takes weeks to break in. First walk of 2 hours, not a sore foot, not an ache and completely dry. Great for camping, looks good enough for everyday. Only thing I found curious is I had to order them twice. I usually wear a 8.5/9 sized shoe. I never wear socks. But I had to buy a size 7 in Vessi. I haven’t worn a 7 in 20 years. Exchange though was the easiest thing through the mail and my new product came in a week. Love love love!! Thinking about ordering the new style.”
“I am usually a size 7 or 7.5 in casual shoes, but I thought a size 7 would work for these since they're supposed to be sock-like/fitted and stretch out over time. Well, they're too small with even my thinnest socks, so the sock bunches up at the top. Without socks, the back of the shoe rubs against the back of my feet, and the soles rub against my heel causing blisters in both locations.
I don't like their donation policy because, if you don't pay full price (you use a promo code), you cannot return the shoes (only exchange) and you can't exchange if they are worn, so I will probably end up donating these.”
