“All and all good my only complaint is the sole of the shoe is a bit too flexible for my liking. Other than that the shoe is perfect. It breathes and fits well.”
“These shoes are very well made and seem to live up to the water tightness. No longer are my socks wet after taking a walk through a dew covered yard with my dogs.
My only complaint would be a lack of wide fit sizes and that they are extremely tight if you need to add arch supports as I did. They seem to be loosening up the more I wear them but just be aware of this if like me you have wider flat feet that require arch supports to be added.”
“I'll get the negative parts out of the way first. My only minor grief was adjusting to wearing the new shoes. And even then, they didn't take long!
Now for the positives. To start, they are quite comfortable. Most people have a pair of shoes for different things, like work and running and such. But these? I feel like I could wear them for everything!
Better still, mine arrived just in time for some rainy weather. I try to avoid puddles on my walk to work, but in my old shoes, I'd still find one every now and again, and end up with socks ranging from mildly soaked to utterly drenched. But with these new shoes, even the worst of my missteps found no such wetness for my feet!
To anyone debating about getting themselves a pair of these shoes, don't let the price tag scare you off. They are well worth the investment.”

“It took me a while to decide to invest in a pair of Vessi sneakers. I heard about Vessi through a few reliable YouTube Influencers, and needing a quality pair of sneakers, I decided to stray from the norm and order my next pair of sneakers from Vessi.
I was concerned over the sizing of the sneakers as I usually wear an 11 W. A quick email to Vessi and a rapid response from their customer service team sealed my decision. Shipping took a little longer than expected, but what I received was worth the wait!
I slipped in my custom orthotics, and it was the most different and interesting feel in a piece of footwear that I have ever experienced. First off, the comfort was indescribable. The sneaker fit tightly like a glove, but after a few times wearing them, I could tell that they had adjusted to my feet. There was no bulging along the sole (due to the flat-foot issue), they took my orthotics without any problems, and they remind me of a cross between wearing a water-sock, a sneaker, AND a pair of slippers all at once. They are breathable in warm climate, and warming in cooler climate - I mean really, how does footwear do that?!
Next, the water-resistance/proof claims. I read the advertising and descriptions by Vessi, and admittedly I thought, well, I can get behind the claim of the comfort, but the water thing? So, I intentionally used them with care in regards to puddles. By a staggering coincidence, I was heading into my local pharmacy during a rather heavy rain, and there was a small pothole that had collected rain. The rain was running down the street heavily, so it was easy not to spot the thing and in went my foot. Thankfully I was not inured, and I regained my composure. A moment later I stopped and I realized...I just submerged almost the entire height of my sneaker in a torrential downpour, and my feet wear bone dry - and not only bone dry, but they did not collect ANY grime or filth from the incident!
Rest assured my second pair of sneakers are coming from Vessi - hands down - no questions asked. Highly recommended, and unbeatable! They stand by their claims on their footwear, and have great customer service. Thank You Vessi!”

“The Everyday version has great durability of fabric and design. As I ordered this product in all black, it fits comfortable and I want to wear every time. It amazes me that it defines weather proof and maintaining temperatures with my feet.”
“I like the look of the sneakers and they are comfortable for a little bit. But when you're walking around, say more than a mile at one time, they can be a bit sore. I don't entirely blame the sneakers though, I am well over 250lbs and plan on getting some thicker insoles. I would definitely recommend these to friends regardless.”
Thank you so much for your amazing support! You can also try replacing the insoles with your own orthotic that may give you the support you need for your feet.
