“These are by far the best most comfortable footwear I have purchased from Vessi. If you don't already own the a pair of Vessi footwear and you live in a city that rains ALOT then I highly recommend the Soho Sneaker. They are not only very comfortable, waterproof (obviously) and sleek. I purchased my pair 3 days before my Xmas trip to the UK and I didn't have to touch any of my other shoes. I wore the Soho Sneaker all around London and Birmingham and it never stopped raining the whole time.”
“This was my upgrade from the white weekend sneakers. I like the look, but unlike the weekend, the Soho require breaking in. I wish there were half sizes available”
“The fit is very strange. My toes fall asleep from it being too tight yet the heel slides on and off leaving blisters on my heel… hopefully it gets better since they’re supposed to mold to your feet but I can’t wear them for more than an hour without wanting to tear them off my feet”
Hi Chantal,
We greatly appreciate you taking the time to provide us with your feedback.
We apologize for any inconvenience you've faced regarding the break-in process of your Vessis. The material is designed to conform to your foot's shape, similar to how socks fit. Over time, as you wear them, they should gradually adapt and stretch to better fit your foot. It's quite common for Vessis to feel snug initially.
To help during this period, some customers find using a shoehorn to put on the shoes helpful. Additionally, you can accelerate the stretching process by placing a few pairs of thick socks inside the shoes overnight, which should aid in expanding their shape.
We sincerely value your input and will make sure to pass your feedback along to our Product team. Continuous improvement is a priority for us, and your experience contributes to that effort.
Once again, thank you for sharing your thoughts on your Vessis with us. If you have any further questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out.
We greatly appreciate you taking the time to provide us with your feedback.
“These shoes are beautiful but unfortunately they are too narrow for my wide feet. Having small feet (size 6 woman) means that ordering the wider men shoes are not an option for me.”
Hi Hanifa,
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us. I'm glad your Vessis are keeping you dry and comfortable!
We’re sorry to hear your Vessis are too narrow. The material works similar to how socks fit, in the sense that it adapts to your foot shape. The more you wear them, the more it gives and stretches to mold to you. Therefore, it’s actually quite normal for your Vessis to be a little snug to start. 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.
Thank you again for sharing your thoughts on your Vessis with us.
“Love the style - it’s very cute. I wish there were half sizes. I usually wear a 6.5 and bought a 6 (I don’t have wide feet) - fits okay but a little tight and needs time breaking into.”
