If you’re not yet familiar with the style editor-favorite all-weather waterproof shoes from Vessi, are you in for a treat. On behalf of our newest partner, we’re sharing our favorites for the coming season, from this Vancouver-based small biz. Their backstory: They set out to create a totally waterproof, eco-friendly, super comfy sneaker that’s still stylish a few years back. Not only did they succeed, but Vessi has now added options for women, men, kids — even cool outerwear and accessories.
The shoes are more than waterproof, they’re temperature-regulating, so you’re not stuck with the sweaty feet you get in most rain boots and waterproof gear. And they’re very, very cool looking.
With that, here are 10 favorite Vessi staples to grab now, before you find yourself caught in the next rainstorm (or snowstorm!) with cold, wet feet. Because no one needs that.

Veessi’s Waterproof Shoes, Outerwear and Accessories: 10 Favorites for Women, Men, and Teens
We’re so into these 100% waterproof Weekend Chelsea Shoes from Vessi in a limited edition color combo: Black over off-white with hints of a delicious vegan leather. So stylish — and still wildly practical. The other color combos are pretty great too, and we love that chunky rubber sole.
A staple for chillier weather, the Women’s Weekend Chelsea High-Tops combines the comfort of a sneaker, the coverage of an ankle boot, and the warmth of your favorite cold-weather shoes. They’re stretchy too, for easy-on and easy-off.
The white sneaker trend isn’t going away, even in the fall and winter, and Vessi has you covered (literally) with their new waterproof Women’s Stormburst High-Tops. They offer cloud-like, breathable comfort beyond what you’d expect from an ordinary waterproof ankle boot, plus the traction of a favorite pair of sneakers.
If you want a lot more warmth and coziness, the Waterproof Lined Alta Boot for women or for men is a Vessi favorite that’s been newly updated. It now has an even better, sleeker fit, with the same styling that we love. It’s fleece-lined for extra comfort, and even slush puddles are no match for the padded collar and rubber sole.
We love Chelsea Boots like Vessi’s because they never go out of style, and these happen to be fully waterproof and beautifully styled. Check out all the colors — and consider a pair or two of their popular mid-crew socks, while you’re at it.
Women aren’t the only ones who hate wet socks. Check out Vessi’s new waterproof Stormburst High-Tops for men, which combines the best of a high-top sneaker with the best of a waterproof boot. It comes in four fantastic colors, including the classic Space Black, shown here. Check out the low-tops too if that’s more his speed.
If you’re not living in the great north — or don’t plan on seeing much snow — these four-season Waterproof Weekend Sneakers from Vessi for women and for men reimagine the classic court sneaker with a lot more functionality. The black is always classic — and sells out frequently! Check out the broad selection of women’s colors including a chic oak brown.
Whether for commuting to work or school, trekking the globe, or just hauling the kids’ stuff around (as always), Vessi’s waterproof backpack is beloved for good reason. If you’ve ever unzipped your bag to retrieve soggy papers or (eek) a moist laptop, you get it. And yeah, this one has a padded pocket for a 16″ laptop. Great gift for a college student. Or for yourself.
Another amazing outerwear staple in beige or black, Vessi’s Waterproof Overcast Rain Jacket is everything you look for in a lighter rain jacket. besides being waterproof, with an ample hood, it’s got a soft, cozy inner lining because soft and cozy shouldn’t be too much to ask for, even in the rain.
What good is having dry, warm feet if you’re going to have cold wet hands! Vessi’s Forecast Gloves are the perfect every-day glove, with extra grippers on the palm. They even have touch-screen functionality so you can text without taking off a glove with your teeth. BTW they make amazing practical holiday gifts for teens or adults.
