  1. Oh i agree whole heartedly on your last staement, but take for example the Polk lo, coming from a manufacturing point of view the differences are quite apparent,

    outsole, visvim: injected eva and rubber custom sole

    outsole, CP: rubber existing molds

    Interiors, Visvim: leather with special harnesses and technological materials

    Interiors, CP: Leather..no tech.

    it might not be a fair comparison as say the Polke is definitely not in the same class of shoe as most of CP products...if comparing Visvims "Converse style" shoes to CP "Converse style" shoes i would say that CP has got visvim on both quality and value for money...I don't like any of the visvim "basic" shoe types I like the high-tech constructed ones, but over all, as a range, I just don't believe that people should pay a huge premium for something that they are supposed to get anyway...quality should be a given...not a luxury.

    point taken and pretty fair.

    again consider this, comparing these with their molds counterpart these are a lot cheaper than them. i'm not sure if they come from the same factory or anything liek that but a lot of high end shit uses that mold as well. i.e. Neil Barrett, Rafs?, and others along this line.

  2. hmmmmm....350 CDN...is not expensive....whoa you must be from Rosedale, or Richmond Hill or something...I'm not so sure about these shoes, although they are made of nice materials....that's apretty hefty price tag for some sneakers, it's not like they're visvims or anything...IMHO, these shoes look like vans/keds etc, but I bet they'd look sharp in a business casual situation. I like the slip on ones best

    and what does Visvim offer over CP that they can charge that price?!

    don't get me wrong i own both brands, love them both as well. yes both are comfortable, if thats how you justify the price tag. qualiy are both good. um.......yeah so what does Visvim have over CP that they can charge that price i know you are just throwing a name out there but im curiouse. a lot of visvim models can be said they are just converse, clarks, etc etc.

  3. i don't know how hard you guys wear your shoes, but i'll recommend just using some foot locker shoe spray for protection. again just wipe your shoes with a clean/soft towel. make sure its soft so you dont scrape your shoes with brittel towerl lol. if you want just some of the footlocker shoe cleaner as well but dont let that foam stay on your shoes for too lonng. wipe it off ASAP. i casued a slight discolouration on my light grey by doing that. for my whites, theres no harm..........so are my dark greys.

    just the light greys for some reason has slight discolouration.

  4. the western flannel fits slim and nice. the body hits a tad bit on the short side, but i've gotten used to the length on mine. its one of my favorite things i've bought in a while.

    where did you get ur flannel?!

  5. i certainly do... im going to go ahead and guess you do too?

    yeah was rushing to the ENG building after i fucked up Econ *sigh*

    and then your 'Preme beanie caaught my eye around student center lol.

  6. new corpus on the steady website, i double dare ya

    www.steadyboutique.com

    thanks for the site! it solved half of my dilemma!

    they have the split cardigan which Revolves calls it the asymmetric cardigan like Mathew Izzo. and i emailed a local store around here and they confirmed they have the split cardigan as well. so they are basically different........................unless Mathew Izzo is also calling their split cardigan the asymmetric like Revole. So i really don't know since MI uses Corpus' pics instead of their own. .
