“These are super comfy and cute. I’m alittle worried about staining them and the care for keeping them bright white but other than that they’re great!”
“so comfortable and perfect on a wet or dry day on the moist wet grass while im taking the dog for a walk that keep my shoe so dry without soaking thru my sock....awesome shoe as i would definitely buy it again down the road”
“I have to say they are very comfortable to wear, even the first time. In the rain, they certainly hold up to expectation. My feet remained completely dry even as we had 3 inches of rain in less than than 24 hours. I wore them for a variety of activities, hiking, a tennis tournament, and with a sundress to Sunday brunch. They looked stylish and provided hours of comfort. Being a white pair of shoes, they did quickly get dusty and a bit dirty. I tried to spot clean the shoes, but the water truly does roll off and the dirt remained. I read that the shoes can be machine washed, but I have not tried that yet.”
Hi Christine,
We're so happy to hear your Vessis kept your feet nice and dry during all your activities! We are sorry to hear, however, that they aren't coming as clean as you'd hoped but we do have some tips that may help.
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 along with a mixture of baking soda, white vinegar and water for the best results. We do have some helpful tips to keep your Vessis looking as clean as possible.
For the knit, we recommend something like Dr. Bronner products. They offer a gentle but effective clean. Their detergent specifically shows the best results without causing any damage to the waterproofing membrane. Soak the shoes in warm water. While using your water-based soap or laundry detergent, scrub them gently with a soft sponge to get all dirt/stains off. Leave them to dry and repeat until stains lift. Please do not bleach your shoes as this will damage the membrane. We recommend using a microfiber cloth (a soft sponge will work too), baking soda, and vinegar for the best results. Be sure to air dry your shoes at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or heat source like a radiator.
