Leave it to a #Raincouver company to create the waterproof shoe of our dreams...

No one actually likes wearing rain boots. They're bulky, uncomfortable and kinda of make you feel like a makeshift fisherman every time you leave the house. This disdain for practical footwear has resulted in a lot of damp feet and stained, stinky shoes, but that's all about to change.
Perfect for Vancouver-sized raindrops, Vessi sneakers are made from a patented "flash knit technology", which makes them 100% waterproof. Not water-resistant, not water repellent, not "I thought these were a good idea but now my feet are totally soaking". Waterproof.
Unlike rubber boots, these shoes are as breathable and lightweight as your other favourite knit sneakers. Wear them to the gym, wear them to a restaurant, wear them on a hike, wear them in a puddle. Whatever the case, you'll stay fresh, dry and perfectly on-trend.
