“Bought these for a comfy, but stylish option during a trip to Europe. No regrets on the decision as shoes very, very comfortable from the get-go, with none of the typical "break-in" period required with other shoe brands, and logging 15-18,000 steps/day. Also happy with how clean the shoes are after my 1st run through the washing machine, despite some fairly heavy dirt stains! Solid choice all around!!”
“I bought these to have white sneakers that I could keep clean but they get dirty so fast and no amount of scrubbing with a toothbrush or putting them in a washing machine will get them clean. They look terrible after three months and I won’t wear them out. I gave three stars because they are comfortable- just not the “cleanable”sneakers I was hoping for.”
Hi Kumiko,
Thanks for taking the time to share your experience with us.
We're so sorry to hear you are having a tough time keeping clean, but we;d be happy to share some cleaning tips! We find that the key is to clean our shoes sooner rather than later. The quicker you can rinse off dirt, the easier it will be to keep them nice and clean. We recommend using a sponge or light coloured cloth made with natural fibers, baking soda, and vinegar for the best results.
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.
“While I haven't had the chance to test out the dry socks guarantee, I did not expect these shoes to be so comfortable. These are soon becoming my everyday shoes.”
“Love the shoes, very comfortable and the waterproofing really works. It does show dirty very quickly. I only walked on a golfcourse with dew on the grass and the tips were brown. Did not expect that.”
