“Wore these in Japan this summer! Even with such rough seasonal conditions, their breathability and water repellants are unmatched! I do advise using them for a week before traveling to such a walk-heavy destination like me, but, frankly, a single small toe callus with all the walking I did on new shoes are a testament to how comfortable these shoes are. There's probably ones with more cushion/support you can pick, but these did a game changing good job.”
“The look is great. love the design and materials. Slides on easy. The fit isn't perfect though. It fits me lengthwise but the material is very tight around the mid-foot. If you usually wear a wider shoe this will be a tight fit.”
Hi John,
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.
“Great shoes. Stretches nice to the foot. Good for people with bunions. Waterproof. Definitely what they advertise. Can be challenging to get on, so good for all day wear.”
“I just received my Women's Weekend from Vessi and absolutely love!! I plan on wearing them in rainy London next month for our vacation. I tried them out on my normal 3 mile walk and out of the box felt comfortable the entire time. I also wore them to work 2 days in a row with no issues (I get in 12,000 or more steps at work). I normally wear a size 10.5 shoe so I usually have to size up when half sizes are not offered. The description of the shoe on the website was very accurate when it said that the shoes run a little large so size down. My size 10s fit perfectly!!”
