FAQs
How do Vessis enable you to embrace water?
Our 100% waterproof technology offers a whole new way to experience the magic of water without discomfort or distraction. Because when you take wet socks out of the equation, you're free to soak up other things, like the benefits of spending time near water.
How does Vessi provide and protect water?
Through our partnerships with water-based organizations! In addition to larger give-back campaigns like Giving Tuesday, we donate $5 from each pair of select limited editions sold to help fund water initiatives around the world. Plus, we regularly give away Vessi sneakers to our partner charities to help further support the cause.
How can I get involved?
We’re so happy you share our vision for a world in which water is embraced, protected, and provided.
The best way to get involved is by signing up for our email newsletter and following us on social media. That’s where we share news on upcoming events and limited edition sneaker launches that help support all these initiatives.

Fun things are coming! While we currently only run events in our hometown of Vancouver, BC, we're working on making waves together in other parts of the world soon.
