“Not sure of fit yet, have worn with light socks & also barefoot. The edging on the top of ankle is achy when I have finished a walk in these shoes. Hopefully they will stretch out soon for upcoming trip! Haven't received the belt bag yet, hope it arrives in time as well. Thank you”
Hi Margie,
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.
“Not super comfy, when you first put them on. You think…yeah these are okay. And then you wear them out-Wow! These seem to mold to your feet. My foot, hip, and lower back pain are gone. They are super easy to put on, and fun to wear. Love them! I bought 2 pairs at the same time and haven’t even tried the other ones yet. I love these!!”
“These are marvelous - light, stylish as hell (this color is perfection), and like walking on a cloud. They deliver on every level - I have stopped wearing other brands of shoes - this is my 6th pair of Vessi's.”
