visvim vs. callous- which one is better?

[hahnstch]

I am deciding between callous tachikaze and visvim polke/ paik. anyone has tried any of these shoes? any comments about the shoes?

thanks

[MyMindSpray]

both are good....but i think Visvim are of a tad higher quality...i may be wrong as i have yet to see a pair of Callous first hand...but you can't sleep of Visvim...quality shoes most def...although the prices are a little high...

[ringring]

Subjective I know, but I prefer the looks of Callous - they have a kind of chunkyness that reminds me of old school Northwave snowboard boots - they are pretty well made - a quality comparable to Gravis.

The Being Hunted Tachekazi is especially nice.

i have seen callous first hand and even tried a pair, i guess in the department of look, callous is more understated, but the feel is awesome, the sockliner is great. but i dont know anything about visvim's feel and comfort. can anyone enlighten me about this?

[MyMindSpray]

depends on which pair of Visvims you're after...the one's you listed are very comfortable...the FBTs are crazy comfortable...but i'm guessing that's partly cause they're on a moccassin type tip...

hope that helps a bit...

I like the Callous shoes better-truly comfortable

I'm over nike and I think of Callous sneakers is up next for me.

where can you get those beinghunted joints?

peace

thanks for all the advice. got my visvim already from rivingtonclub.com, very fast shipping...

anyone knows other store carrying callous x beinghunted tachikaze other than dp-mhi.com? it's way to expensive at dp-mhi, the list price at complex magazine is $170

[dickhead]

go to beinghunted.com and on the right side of the screen wait till the callous x beinghunted shoe promo comes up and click on it. You'll be taken automatically to your email program. Ask them if they have any left.

I hate everything and everyone.

[hahnstch]

i did. they said they have decided to sell it through stores worldwide and they have not replied me when i asked them which are the stores that carry the shoes. i have checked union, nom de guerre and headporter to no avail. either they dont carry the shoes or they run out of stock already

[edwin]

how long did it take rivington to ship shoes to your house from the day you ordered them?

[hahnstch]

i stayed in NY and they took just one day (!) to ship them

hahnstch...have you by any chance seen the brown visvim polkes??...what shade of brown are they??..the pics on rivingtonclub.com aren't too clear...

trying to decide between the black and the brown....

thanks in advance...

Good god, rivingtonclub.com has the worst shots of product i've ever seen. They look like crappy ebay shots.

i havent actually seen the brown, the last time i went downtown to rivington club (which was last week) they werent any visvim at all on display.. but i have seen the black polke at union, they are black with random dashes of grey, complex.com has a picture of it.

[MyMindSpray]

thanks hahnstch....

by the way, which pair did you end up getting??

[hahnstch]

i got visvim paik in sand color cos i dont really like polke's look. i just found out that the only store in US carrying callous x beinghunted is Ubiq in Philly.

[craig13]

In north america there should be Callous stock at ubiq, undefeated , huf , dqm , union , commonwealth , flux , and possibly livestock.

very , very , very comfortable,,,,,,and fly !

very , very , very comfortable

I second that emotion

The footbeds on the Callous are fantastic.

[kornelius]

Callous shoes rocks!

The BGHD is availble at www.wallace-store.com

I have to agree, this are quite possibly the most comfortable shoes i've ever worn.

visvim is my pick for high end sneakers very stylish imo

the mind's eye glitters with thoughts and ideas for the masses/

i take classes/ to appease the classless/ perhaps its/

counter-revolutionary or counter intelligence/

to understand the situation or take command of the circumstance/

never mind what i say what's done is done/

and when i look down and grin and say it's been fun/

understand that #1 means no #2's i'm the best/

and i will choose to act out in front if you all to put you to the test/

so arrest all specimens determined to take

i bet in 2 years time all you guys will be asking about and latching onto the next big thing

but its cool nothing wrong with trends - remember to bust out those red wing boots for them spring fishing trips with pops....
