    @elclintor:

    what size did you order Lando? and what size do you wear in vans?

    been eyeing the black ones..

    I went with a US12. I wear the same in all Nike. I thought I would be US11 as I am in Vans and most other footwear including my keifer's. However, I was advised by a good friend that they will fit exactly the same as my Nike Free's which are US12. I sure as shit hope he knows what he is talking about. I will give a full size review as soon as they show. Worst case scenario they are too big and I return them. Then proxy a 11 from JP.

        No idea about the Sufu/ Rep thing. As for me, I own one pair currently (Keifers). They are made of Elk leather. They are admittedly overpriced but the level of comfort is next to none. Oh and they are some bad looking kicks (For the most part)! I am sure nameness can chime in as he prob has the most experience with the brand.

          I am def one who gets why a brand is expensive compared to others.. but $1500 shoes are not meant for the common person.  I have spent $500 to $700 on a pair of Dolce & Gucci shoes and those were as good in quality as buying shoes from H&M.  I spent that money on nothing more than the name of the brand NOT the quality. ..Visvims I am assuming are considered high fashion as well as being made well right? Which would explain the $1500 price tag

            Yes and sometimes not even made the best. If you want a highly durable shoe, the is not the brand for you. If you want something that is comfortable and stylish yet expensive, they may be for you.

            @Dirty:

            Which model are you referring to? The ones I just purchased were less than half that.

                    I am pretty sure the smallest is 8 but if I find out something different I will let you know.

                      Visvim footwear goes down to size 6 US.  My wife has two pairs in size 6.

                        Guys, I really need your help.. See I'm thinking of getting a pair of either a virgil kudu folk, or the kangaroo folk..
                        My problem is, i don't really know the sizing on those, and it would totally suck when the shoes get here, and they don't fit me..  😞

                        So I'm a size 8.5d in redwings, 8.5 in thorogoods, and also 8.5 in yuketen johnson..
                        What size should I get for them visvim virgil folk boots?

                        😉

                        edit:
                        Should I get size m8.5 or m9.5, what should the size say on the box? To be honest, I'm completely confused..  😠

                        Live life, Laugh, Love.. ;)

                            Their sizing is all over the place. I know some people will not agree with that statement. So far I have a pair of Keifers US11 and a pair of Hockney US12. I have a pair of Virgils coming in this week US11 and will note the fit for you here. I am sure nameness or Vinneus can chime in here as well.

                            The first post in the thread has a few online retailers. Don't have time to look through the whole thread to see if I am repeating myself or someone else, but off the top of my head:

                            Also note that even though all/ some of these places have items online, Visvim only allows them to sell via email or by phone. You will not be able to place a order directly on the web.

                                  I have been eyeing a pair of Visvim for a while, so I am pumped.

                                    How do you compare virgil sizing to red wing sizing lando?
                                    Same size or…?

                                      Okay so the pair of US11 Virgil Moc Toe just came in. Not sure what season they are from. Actually I don't know much about them at all. The Visvim Virgil US11 (based on what I can tell) run about a half to full size smaller than Red Wing. I am a US11 in RW and they fit perfectly. These Virgils I just got are a US11 and they are a tad too small. Not something I particularly want in a boot. That being said, I am going to have a tough time parting with them as I have been on the hunt for a pair of my own for some time now. I would much prefer a round toe Virgil in Black, but with a US11.5 or US12, I am going to have to pay retail….... BOOOOOO! Hope that helps if only a little bit.

                                        It helps a lot actually, so basically I just have to size one up from my 8.5 rw and get a size 9 virgil right?

                                        Thaanks lando,  much appreciated mate 😉
                                        Hope u can get yours (in the right size) soon!

                                          Just won these on eBay.  Much cheaper than retail.  Second pair I have bought in the last 24 hours.  Hope they fit.
