Visvim F/W/S 2006-2007

[xcoldricex]

yeah the snakeskin belt i saw last year was amazing- couldn't really justify the $300-$350 for it though....

[mike lowrey]

if anyone can grab pics of the ecat worn it would be much appreciated, I've only seen the one early pic of a small girl wearing it so interested in seeing how big it really looks on the back.

[shinchrono]

It looks just as big as it does on that girl

[mike lowrey]

holy motherfucker! that looks like a trick photo =D

too big for my taste, I'm waiting for next season

[duofold]

That's a big fucking bag.

Nice photo, though. Heading back to F.I.L. to do some more shopping? I miss Japan & the shopping labrynth that is Tokyo.

What's with the insider comments about snatching a backpack from last season, since this season's is so....whatever? Was it in reference to the e-cat?

FW backpacks have some ugly details, if I were to get one I'd try grab one quickly. but then again they've had several bag collabos, G1950, soph and UC just this season, so maybe they'll have nice ones in FW as well? hopefully, cause the main styles kinda suck.

Thanks, Mike. I've already got a black ballistic 20 (no nez) that I'm pleased with.

Would've like the e-cat if it was slightly smaller. I'm actually digging the white...could actually look good trashed.

[PAND]

F/W more ballistic packs?

The UC e-cat, what is that material? It looks kinda plasticky.

I can't help think of

when i look at that picture though.

[xcoldricex]

yeah please post pics when you get it rira- looks way too gigantic though to be useful unless you're travelling (then again you wouldn't be using this type of bag)

uc ecat is supposedly croc imprinted cowhide

[baskew]

hmm, I'm glad I didn't stepup on this one, it does look a little big... Even if you a larger guy...

even for traveling i think it might be pushing it...

[1995chardx]

yeah the E-cat is way too big for my liking as well, maybe ill change my mind later but for now ill stick with my backpack.

anyone know where i can still get the Visvim Hypatex Lumber 8 bag from SS06? please let me know

[chrisj]

hmm im just going to write a letter and wait and see, some of my first purchases are still intact while some stuff ive recently bought (my mowatts in particular) are not holding up as well as i would thinkg they would.

as for the e-cat: looks a tadd too big... but i dont know then again its looks pretty cool with that size... dont know if ill be dropping anything for this as im pretty tight for cash, waiting for acr f/w (grav pocketssssssssssss) big upgrade from my jacket i got from their first season.

[RaymondChiu]

anyone have a rough estimate of how much the cdg kiefers cost?

thanks in advance

[pennyoka]

Are there any more Nez 20 backpacks in black or olive laying around anywhere? I think it's the best design they have released in a while and it sounds like next season isn't so great. I know Union sold out... If anybody has any info it would be greatly appreciated.

F.I.L. retail is 39990 (or was it 39900?)

[Raskol]

[chim]

is this right handed or left handed? slung over the left shoulder?

I really don't know that much about Visvim...but I was tempted by the Buckminster - which came up on sale...and I still was debating....

Ended up getting them - and I am really struck by the high quality...

What I'm trying to say is that it's surely worth checking out some of their items - end it's pretty much like Head Porter, Red Wing or Apple...more dough / but more delivery....

[knucks]

I've only gotten the chance to check out a few Visvim shoes..the quality was there, but at the same time something like my England-made Docs are on par..

I understand a higher price for quality, but w/ Visvim the price is also a lot higher for that "hyphy, elitist, uniqueness" aspect..

[beatle]

Since I am very fond of Doc's I know exactly what you mean..great price - great shoe..

I still love mine - bought about 10 years ago - and they've only gotten better...

In the end - I did buy the Buckminster on sale - so I guess I would not be ready to cash out what they are "normally" selling for...

no one is forcing you to understand it.

as for bape, you get low to mediocre quality garments for possibly even higher prices.

[Egpt]

pretty much.

when i say visvim is the new bape, i mean in terms of attention that it is getting.

there are way more news on visvim than any other brand on hypebeast news, but there is no way the quality is to be compared to bape.

bape is pretty much patent shoes whose quality is worse than the patent of nike and and printed AAA tees for 80 bucks.

actually, i take it back, i prefer AAA quality

[soundbomber]

People will never understand the quality and construction of Visvim until they've actually experienced a pair for themselves. I'm sure people would get hooked after wearing a pair for the first time.

I don't see how one can even compare Visvim to Bape. Bape has shitty pieces and the prices don't make up for it. While Visvim uses grade-a materials which results in the price increase.

[herpsky]

actually, i take it back, i prefer AAA quality

i prefer bape tees (i mean the blanks), to be honest
