visvim s/s10

[halberdklown]

^ wow, the sole really does look low profile...looks like i'll most likely be selling my first series pair to fund those now, thanks rhett

Union LA just got the Virgil Captoe in, $1100 retail.

I'm so sad about this, i swear if they were just a BIT less i'd be buying them but i can't justify $1100 shoes.

^^^^ Ouch!!!

Hi All,

i have just recently stumbled onto this thread and didn't really know anything about Visvim and now am craving some of their amazing shoes!!

Size wise, i wear about a 10 in clarks and 42 in common projects, so would i be looking at around a 9.5?? and does anyone know good place to buy there shoes in Melbourne, Australia?? or is anyone selling any of there's???

thanks guys.

Just got my Virgils in yesterday. These boots definitely run true to size. Im a sz. 12 normally, my folk 7 holes are 11s fit perfect, no way i could have fit an 11 in these. Also the heel/sole is not as monsterous as the pictures previously shown.

What did these cost you? I'm thinking of getting a pair myself, I use 9.5 in most shoes, how do you think a size 10 will fit at me, i got wide feet 10char

Picked these up from Union last week, and really really loving em =)

[halberdklown]

those do look pretty good, but damn, must've payed a premium if you got them from union

How do they feel? I've always wanted to get a pair of patrician but was always doubtful about that sole detail that protrudes out like tat. I would get em if they feel comfy

[NeGeurra]

btw. anyone got pics of someone wearing a JC driver-folk? don bother posting their catalog pics. jst wana see how they look worn close up

^These are by far the comfiest pair of shoes I own, (and shit for that price they sure had better be). Their breathability is unmatched, and they honestly feel a lot better worn without socks. There's a thin layer of cork below the insole which over time adjusts to the shape of your foot, and the vibram sole helps prevent creasing.

All in all, a ridiculously comfortable shoe, but not sure if it was worth the $900, but i'm a huge fan of the brand and this was just one of those items I had to own.

Patricians look so good, kicking myself now for not buying them at FIL Tokyo a couple of months ago. They are indeed very comfortable but Union price tag is a little too rich for my pockets.

Btw - anyone contacted Visvim before? I emailed them a few days ago with no reply, anyone had success?

[NeGeurra]

andtoyen: You have just convinced me. I WILL get them.

Playahater: I dont think they reply emails unless you're a stockist. I emailed them sometime ago and no replies.

[Threeseven]

I emailed them 3-4 months ago, and they never got back to me either.

And just wondering if anyone knows if the Visvim - Patrician fit true or bigger? THX

not to try to sell you, but they are the most amazing boot ive ever handled. light as a feather, feel like nothing when youre wearing them. really considering them....

Damn

Might just suck it up and give them a call.

Wtf - Large is a 37" waist :confused:

[78]

apologies the waist measurement is actually 44.5cm or 35inches!

[kicks79]

I'd still have to gain some weight though

[78]

i think they'd fit u fine homie... pretty slim cut on em...

[kicks79]

Mmm might have to think about it. I can't really fit in to my fluxus size 30 now

[The Abbott]

hey, I have a sizing question for kiefers. I wear a 10 for most other sneakers but can sometimes fit a 9.5. Would a size 9.5 kiefer fit me or would it be too big, because I heard they run a little big. Thanks

[78]

it all depends on your cock size... if you got girth then yeah a 9.5 should b e fine but if you're narrow then you could get away with a 9!

goddamn these are fucking beautiful. i fondled them at union a few weeks ago but remembered that the price was astronomical.

ohhh shit $900?? fuck that's too costly

[NeGeurra]

They dont sell visvim at colette anymore. Boohoo. Cudnt find it on their index online and my fren cudn find any in the store.

[andtoyen]

^SHIT!!!

I was going to Paris this summer and was lookin forward to seeing Visvim @ Colette =(

[b3rt]

hi

i'm planing to buy a pair of fbt & i want to ask about the sizing

i usually wear 11 on nike and 10 on converse chuck taylor all star

so what size should i wear on a fbt?

thx and sorry for my bad English

[NeGeurra]

This might sound dumb...but does anyone have instructions on how to use the visvim shoe care kit? I opened the kit held the cream on one hand and the lotion on the other....and then i thought "what the f*** next??"

If im not mistaken visvim were having a few sessions at either the tokyo or kyoto store on how to use it....

[andtoyen]

@b3rt

you'd probably be a 9.5 or 10 in fbt, they run a little big. I wear a 10.5 in Vans and my fbt size is 9.5

[b3rt]

^

so i should size down 1 in fbt?

i'm going to hk this may, does anyone know where can i it there?

[Threeseven]

They have a F.I.L in HK.
