I decided I want the new patricians...

They also look a bit too big in that picture.

^^^ Vis rice is quite old, done to commemorate their previous office which used to be a rice factory or something like that.

[ravennavaro]

that from a few years back

back to topic. how much was that patrician?

[akuma no uta]

^^^Like 67k yen. Hand painted lhama leather, totally insane.

[t0fu]

those patricians are nice but i agree, they look a little long. the front has like a bulbous look to it

[WillKhitie]

Apparent feedback was that natural and the other color that looks like natural (tan?) is nearly indistinguishable unless held side by side. Natural pair also seems to have a grey/er sole vs. the other color.

The construction or lack of is what makes it, he says. Softer versus his other pair of, and nearly as comfy as the Gris Moc.

As for it looking bulbous, I blame the photo angle. They don't look too much like a baguette when seen from another perspective. Again, pardon the filters.

Softer than the suede version? I'm fucking sold if that's the case.

I really recommend this book if you are into patching. I think many japanese designers are really into this trend of "artificially worn fabrics". Not really destroyed like some Undercover or N(N) things. But actually feel and looks worn by an Japanese peasant class in the old world. Book Link: http://www.newhighmart.com/shop/item/995/Boro-Book/

I really like this book, this is in both english and japanese. the portraits are very very realistic. the people look very calm in this book, wearing actual vintage fabrics. some of the patches could easily be 100+ years old. amazing

[ravennavaro]

i have that book, its a good book to have on your shelve

anyways those patricians look really great, the price isn't as bad as i thought it would be..so that's around 900 usd? what yen like nowadays?

[winstonrodney...]

Is the fit TTS on the patricians? If they're similar in comfort to gris mocs i'm wondering whether they're half size roomier than normal, like the gris mocs? Any help appreciated

[winstonrodney...]

Hey man, have seen a lot of your pics on flickr over the last few months...thank you, keep posting.

[ravennavaro]

those v+v flora's looks very nice. too bad the selmers doesn't come in a cardigan version like the kuba from last season

[seven.homme]

^^^thats FIL central right? cant wait to pop into the store, going there end of this month ..

[pedan]

thats Fil Wan Chai store, it's bigger and have more stocks.

[041988]

^^ yep, the central one. Super small space that one.

Anyway the pricing there is ridic. Last time i bought juneau shirt for 3390 hkd, patrician 6950 hkd. Better buy a return ticket to tokyo from there instead.

The denim cutoffs make me sad.

[WillKhitie]

^ Don't worry. They sowed a large portion of it back on.

[akuma no uta]

Not the fact that it's wasted denim. (which vis denim is pretty disappointing anyway, really with they would do a major overhaul of it) but the face tht denim cutoffs are only acceptable on flamboyant divas in west Hollywood.

[winstonrodney...]

Grizzly's.....anybody got theirs yet? Akuma?

Been offered a pair half a size down. Don't want to wait til next year's release and love this version so need to know from people who already have theirs?

[emixam]

a Y! seller told me they fit slightly bigger than other Vis shoes....maybe worth a try.

[seenmy]

they fit like 7 hole 73s,which I would say is bigger than virgils etc,basically a bit wider with a taller toe box so maybe a fe mil longer

[burgerking]

those v+v flora's looks very nice. too bad the selmers doesn't come in a cardigan version like the kuba from last season

They should have a cardigan version, concepshop looks like they're going to be stocking some.

[pedan]

It's about half size bigger than virgil

[akuma no uta]

EVERYONE IN THE DAMN WORLD GOT THEM FUCK. That's it. $2,000 bounty on a pair of 11's from this season. Any color but black.

[FrugalPlayer]

off topic but anyone from the States have any experience buying from Human Behavior?

[Njalle]

people who buy visvim have too much money
