CityScape

I got these shoes because I am required to wear waterproof shoes at work. I work 12 hour shifts as a nurse and I am constantly on my feet. These shoes are lightweight and comfortable. The only issue is the opening seems a bit tight, but I do have wide feet. So far, these shoes have held up.

Hi Jamie,

We're so glad we can help keep your feet dry and comfortable during your long shifts as a nurse. The opening will stretch out after several wears! It is designed to fit snug at first but no need to worry as the elastic will accommodate to the shape of your ankles soon enough.

BEST Customer Support

Anj from Customer support was super helpful! Very friendly and made me feel like I was talking to family. Anj was able to answer all of my questions and responded very fast. I love these shoes and will be a customer for life! I really recommend that you try Vessi if you haven't already.

Comfortable shoe

I haven’t had the opportunity to test the waterproofness of the shoe yet, but so far the shoe is comfortable. I wish they had a bit more arch support, but the fit is good with plenty of toe room. I ordered my typical sneaker size and it was perfect. I’m glad I found a coupon code as I feel they are a bit pricey.

Hi Mary,

Thank you for sharing your thoughts on your Vessis with us!

As a casual/city shoe, Vessis do provide relatively low arch support. Some people love this, some people don't. That's why we made the insoles removable so you have the option of using your own inserts for a more customized fit and comfort.

Great fit but sole moves

They definitely do what they say as in waterproof, comfortable and stylish. I am a 9 in everyday shoe and boot so obvious choice is a 9. They fit great and if I went with an 8 they'd be way to small, however the left sole has moved and now I have a bunch at my toes. But only the left side, the sole seems to be in place or hasn't moved from my heel which is odd. I will have to trim it which I don't want to do. Maybe bringing out half sizes might be a great solution.

Hi Tara,

Thank you for sharing your experience with us! We're very sorry that you're having some issues with your left insole. We'll definitely share this with our Product Team as we're always looking for ways to improve.

To help fix that issue in the meantime, we recommend using double-sided tape to help keep them in place. That should be of some help as a temporary solution!

Genuinely surprised how bad Vessi shoes are and yet they are so highly rated!

These are hands down the worst shoes I've ever worn. I've had $40 shoes from amazon, and stiff dress shoes that were more comfortable than these. The problem is the ergonomics. The arch area is sunken in, instead of having arch support, and the heal and toe areas are slightly raised. This causes arch pains, plantar fasciitis, and throws out lower back alignment for me and my wife. Luckily I have plenty of insurance to get therapy but these shoes can cause damage by just walking in Vancouver for more than 15 minutes for me. As I bought them on sale, I cannot refund them unfortunately.

They are waterproof, but these are brutally designed in terms of ergonomics. I'm very surprised that this issue is only brought up by a few reviews below - are my pair and my wife's defective? To be fair, my friends all have Vessi's and they said don't walk in them for long as they are not well designed, but I think I really hate them more than they do.

Love the shoes except putting them on maybe if you had a loop at the back to pull it over the heel and grommets to easily loosen the laces and maybe have half sizes other than this they are fantastic didn't do any puddle jumping yet they are kinda frozen

Ouch

These shoes press the neck of my feet .(where the leg and foot meet and around the ankle). I have worn them

Several times hoping to break them in but now just have black marks around my foot.

I don’t like them :( I prefer my weekenders.

Was this helpful?

Vessi

Hi Merab,

It’s normal for the ankle opening to be a little firm to start! Over the first few wears of your new shoes you’ll notice that the upper knit and ankle opening will stretch to accommodate and create the perfect shape around your feet. The reason you want this is to make sure no water comes in through the ankle. The only way to ensure this is if you allow the shoe to mold to your ankle shape. In order to do that, you do need them to be tight at first and then only stretch when they’ve learned your specific foot shape. This creates that snug, sock like fit that we are loved for!

Not to worry, after a few more wears the ankle opening will have loosened up to become the perfect fit for your feet. We recommend a shoehorn in the meantime or leaving a wide, circular object in them overnight to help stretch out the elastic.

Good waterproof shoes

These shoes work well for being in wet weather. They fit big (I’m usually a size 9 and have a size 8 pair, the size 9 pair had to be returned). They are decently comfortable (but don’t have as much padding as other running shoes). They are great for keeping your feet dry!

Good start

I had read a lot about these shoes and thought I would give them a try. The concept of the shoe is great but there are minor updates that need to be made to the Everyday Shoe. I would definitely add finger pull tags on the tongue and back of the shoe to assist with putting the shoe on. I’m also not a fan of round laces as they come undone easily. I’m normally a size 9 so ordered that but it’s a bit big. Too late now, I wore them. I can attest that I jumped through many puddles and this shoe kept my feet dry which is fantastic for Vancouver rainy days. I would buy another pair in the future if some changes were made to the features of the shoe. A little more stability is required in the structure as well.
