      I had FBT's, Serra's and Kiefers a few years ago, gotta say that quality wise they don't approach Wesco, Viberg or Whites, but it's a different market.

        I like visvims footwear the most, but I would never pay retail on it. At least not us retail…yuck!

          Yeah retail is off the charts. I have some shirts and chinos too. The chambray is less hardcore than the IHSH 21 but offers more refinement imho. The cut is perfect for me too. The Albacore shirt probably won't last 10 minutes but I love the details. The Black Elk flannel I got today is amazing…design, colour and cut are out of this world. The chinos don't feel all that special, but again, the cut fits my body exactly how I like it.  Guess that's what I appreciate most, the fit and design.
          Don't get me wrong, I will always go the heavy jap raw denim route...can't even imagine buying washed denim...but for shirts and shoes, Visvim, along with Nonnative offer designs and cuts that I love. Horses for courses an all that...

            yeah like you said @Megatron1505, their book dissertation on whatever season was it, was around 500-600usd. and not to mention that's for a book with images inside. now that is what's absurd.

            yeah. the kiefers and fbts are really in a different market to vibergs and stuff…

            i have their kilgore kapala jacket, 2fbts and the virgil boot. i just love their footwear, though some retail prices are ridiculous as mentioned. but vis sizing for me at size 1 is a little over. so i haven't really dabble into their clothes yet except for the kilgore kapala jacket.

            @bertoni i too absolutely love the details of the albacore shirt. just that i haven't been able to like on the fit of their size 1. i still find it a tad big.

                I saw the Grizzly Mid Folk boots, they are quite expensive.  Anyone has a pair?  What's your take on them?

                  I had a pair of normal Grizzlys from aw12. Amazing boots. Seriously. Sold mine on as they weren't really what I was looking for. I don't think i'd pay full retail though.

                          Anyone care to share some thoughts on Kiefer sneakers?
                          Basically I'm looking to replace a pair of John Lofgren SE high top sneakers, I wore a pair of the black ones for a year or two and loved them but I've found that they're just a bit too narrow for my feet (wish they came in 12).
                          My search has lead me to the new FW17 black canvas Kiefer, and I'm just wondering if I'm really that crazy to be considering these.  😃
                          Everything I've read leads me to believe they'll hold up well and are worth the asking price, just wanted to check and see if any of you guys had personal experience.

                            haven't had any keifer experience. but the collections of late has me picking only 1-2 items per season as  i felt it was rather forced. maybe try looking into skagway hi as well..

                              The new wool/linen skagway hi in black seem really nice, those are the two pairs I was looking at.

                                I have had a fair amount of Visvim over the years but never the Keifer. I personal couldn’t justify the price for what is essentially a copy of converse or at least close to it. Now if you were looking a FBT which is unique and to me something which I always think are cool. I would say go for it.

                                    Admittedly I kind of hate the look of the FBT, just not my style personally.
                                    I was just wondering if the Kiefer lived up to the rest of the Vis standard.
                                    But I think I'm going to hold out for now since IH is working on some sneakers.  😎

                                      yeah me neither when i first started. but then i wore it and the look just clicked on with me. i've just got my 5th pair of fbt recently..

                                      fair enough. i've never really looked at the skagway either because i couldn't justify the price like what most said. unless of course it's some boro or ict special dye ones.. then perhaps i'd consider. you don't really hear much about it either. i only know the foley-folk are highly rated amongst it's 'repro' trainer range because it's goodyear welted and you can replace the sole..

                                        I'm looking for a pair of Visvim Logan Lo.  This model has recently been rereleased but I can't find them anywhere.  Does anyone know have an idea of where I can find something like this:

                                            Thanks for that.  I was actually able to find something there.
