“Pros: good sizing, courteous staff, quality product. Exchanging the size was relatively painless.
Cons: The sole is very lightweight, perhaps too much. Staff was not quick to process the return and exchange, but that's possibly due to the busy holidays schedule.
Definitely on the lookout for more.”
Hey Christian. Thanks for the honest review and sharing your experience with us. Originally, the team used the current material for the sole to keep the shoe lightweight! We have been experimenting with different heavier materials to maybe implement in new designs one day. Hopefully we can find an ideal balance for you! The holiday season was definitely a hectic one -- we can say that much! Thanks for the support!
“Great shoes. Extremely comfortable. No half sizes so your site suggests to round up a size. Found them to be a tad bit big but I normally wear my shoes somewhat fitted so maybe that’s why. I wear them in the rain to walk the dogs and my feet are always dry. I also wear them to work. Took me a while to get my size but well worth the wait.
Looking forward to my next pair.”
“I thought this product was all hype when I saw it online. But after reading a ton of reviews, I decided to purchase it and support a Canadian business. But when the shoes arrived a few days later I was shocked about how amazing they were. I Love them so much and wear them all the time during the winter dog walks. They fit nice, the cushions are amazing, added bonus it being waterproof.Do yourself a favour and treat yourself grab a pair and walk forward dry! Lol”
“Vessi works exactly the way it claims. Real water protector. I am a walker and was always stressed about shoes getting wet in rain. I am Not worried about going for walk in rain anymore which is just great . I ordered a vessi one for myself n one for my son. Thankyou vessi for ur fast service and customer support.”
“I’ve been using these shoes to walk my dog and they’ve been great in the Vancouver weather.
I’d say the one improvement would be for the design of the shoe to be a little more slim fitted as they do look a bit bulky.”
Hi Calvin,
Thank you for the 5-star review! Vessis are certainly made for dog walkers in Vancouver.
Appreciate your feedback! We will be sure to share it with the Product Team as we're always looking for ways to improve.
“Living on the west coast of Canada on Vancouver Island I dreaded having to take the dog for a walk in the constant rain we get all winter. Now while the rest of me is wet my feet stay dry. I have recommended Vessi to many people since owning these shoes and I would not hesitate to buy another pair. Great product.”
“I love the shoes, they definitely stand the water. My only complain is that there is barely any grip in the shoe. The Shoe sole is very flat. I used them alot around grass and a bit muddy surfaces.
I have fallen twice. The other day I was carrying my toddler and I fall down. It could have been bad for her.
Yes I will recommended but hopefully you could have a more sporty version with a sort of trail sole.”
Hi Leonardo,
Thank you for sharing! We do recommend walking with caution on slippery surfaces as Vessis aren't completely slip-proof. Happy puddle hunting :)
