The dog walk
Twice a day no matter the forecast. The wet crosswalk, the curb puddle, the extra lap because somebody found a smell. Your socks come home as dry as when you left.

Three ways socks usually get soaked
Travel day
One suitcase, no room for a backup pair, and the forecast picked today. Good thing you're already wearing the waterproof ones.
The puddle you didn't see
Every corner has one. Step right in, keep walking, and your socks stay dry.
“I got caught in a downpour of rain while walking my dog. When I got home the only thing dry about me was my feet.”

Weekend ClassicReason 01
It doesn't look like rain gear
The Weekend Classic is a knit sneaker with the waterproofing built right into the knit. No rubber, no shiny coating. It just looks like a sneaker.
“…I figured they'd pack easily & double as rain boots. I never thought I'd wear them everyday for 2 weeks…”
Classic ChelseaReason 02
It doesn't wear like rubber
Rubber doesn't let water through. Dyma-tex™ is a soft, flexible knit we built to breathe. One Chelsea owner went in braced for rubber-boot feet:
“my feet are not hot .. I was worried that they may feel like wearing rubber boots but they are not .. well structured and lightweight”
If the upper isn’t rubber, what is it? It starts in Vancouver.
Built where it rains.
Four layers.
One patented knit.
Vessi was founded in Vancouver in 2018 so you could stop choosing between wet socks and staying inside. Today, Vessis look and feel like your everyday sneaker, with rain boot protection without the weight or bulk.
Drag the line
An actually waterproof knit
Water beads on the Dyma-tex™ knit instead of soaking through to the sock.

“I bought these because the thought of lugging heavy hiking boots across Atlantic Canada felt like a personal nightmare. … kept my feet bone-dry, and even withstood me voluntarily dipping my feet into the North Atlantic ocean like a maniac…”

“2 weeks travelling across Japan in which we experienced 2 typhoons and an earthquake… absolutely dry feet! I probably walked 30k steps per day in them, and 13/14 of our days were rainy. These shoes saved my vacation!”
