The story & the craft.

Vessi designs its footwear in Vancouver. Its manufacturing FAQ lists Taiwan, China, Cambodia and Vietnam as production countries, without assigning a specific factory to the two styles below. The Canadian design connection is clear; it is not a made-in-Canada claim.

The men’s Weekend Classic in Asphalt Black combines a knit upper with a cushioning midsole. Vessi describes the knit as waterproof; Upvote has not tested that performance. The Kids Weekend is a separate model with an EVA midsole, tie-once laces and machine-washable construction according to its product page.

Use each style’s size guide rather than translating an adult size to a child’s shoe. The Canadian shop offers delivery in Canada, with additional time possible for rural and post-office-box addresses. Compare current size, colour and return eligibility before deciding which pair suits an everyday wardrobe.
