“Obviously waterproof! Very comfortable! They also have good traction - I wear them in the woods every day, They never slip on wet rocks or roots which is amazing for that kind of tread design.”
“I really like these shoes! They are very comfortable and hug the foot well especially around the ankle & arch. I wish there were half sizes. The toe area is also wider than the image of the shoe online.”
“As soon as I out these shoes on I knew they were perfect. I walked in heavy rain and they kept my feet warm and dry. I run in them on my treadmill and they are extremely comfortable. I use my orthotics in them as well and I am very happy that I can. Great shoes!”
“I've been wearing Vessis for a few years. I wear them when I walk my dog in the woods. We go on and off the trails, sometimes walking through puddles, mud, brush and tall grasses. I've never gotten wet feet. My shoes are comfortable and easy to clean. They're actually pretty warm too. The only time I don't wear them is when there is more than a couple inches of snow. Love my vessis.”
“Bought these shoes for my daughter. She is in the food and beverage industry. The shoes keep her feet dry and comfortable during long shifts. She is very happy with them!”
Hi Josephine,
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.
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.
