visvim s/s 2013

[kojiro]

Have any of you guys seen a decent alternative to suede Varsity IT jackets? I'm looking for a premium quality suede varsity, but I have a hard time justifying a $2,5k price tag Visvim's charging for these..

The norse projects hak suede jacket is almost identical to the visvim varsity except instead of raglan it has regular shoulders. Both made in italy, and im pretty sure suede and/or lining is the same on both. Only things that are different are ribbing and stitching. I like vis has more flatlock type strength stitching.

Hey Fycus,

 

They look nice indeed! Very nice suggestion. Too bad they are not double-tone, but probably I could live with that.

I also like this one:

but when you look at the details / finish, it doesn't look that good..

The suede varsity kinda sucks.

The sleeves are too long, the ribbing is too heavy for the leather so it will stretch the body and sleeves more, it should be lined, the pockets aren't deep enough.

Ss14 there's a veggie varsity. Looks awesome.

Where did you see the SS14 veggie varsity? A Twitter snap?

edit: and as for Visvim Varsity IT, dunno man, looks great to me, but haven't tried one on

I'll be in Barcelona in a few days, can someone come up please with a list of Visvim retailers in Barcelona? I'd visit a place or two when I'm there.

-edit- I know about Eligens, but are there any other places that have Visvim stuff?

Jesus fucking Christ man just go to their website.

[akuma no uta]

Visvim.tv lists all their stockists. It's not that hard man.

Ok, so I'll ask the question in a different way- are there any boutiques in Barcelona that have Visvim stuff other than Eligens, which is well-known & listed at Visvim website? I obviously checked the stockist list before posting

Never want to take this thing off; it's like a (mostly) socially accepted way to walk around in your robe all day.

 

 

Gotta track down some more fabrics now.

[winstonrodney...]

it will be if you lose the draw strings

[seven.homme]

@kojiro, if the site says only one store that stock vis in that country that thats it .. if you found any others they're probably a reseller, and i doubt there will be any dedicated resellers in Barcelona like the one in hk ..
