Visvim

[DrPat]

I wear either cp or visvim logan lo most days.  I take a size 42 in cp and 9 in the Logan lo, if anyone needs a size comparison.

I was surprised to see that the visvims were made in china and were glued instead of stitched. Also, the glue job seemed a bit sloppy.  I haven't worn them enough yet to test their long term quality.  Otherwise, I really like them.

I would like a pair of kiefers but the retail price is way too high. I'll be in la in a few days so I may have to have a look at them though.

I await you analysis Dr. P!

Yupyup, they appear to manufacture in China, Korea, and Japan.  They're making a bit bigger deal out of the Japanese (assembled at least) models this season.

Have fun molesting the Kiefers.

I own few pairs or visvim shoes but the earlier launched shoes are mostly made in Korea and the quality is been good. It does not fall apart when I wear them again after putting aside for maybe around 1 year or more. I have to agree the price shoot up quite a lot till I have to stop buying their shoes as they are going over-priced.

Good to know - NEXT!..

[nameness]

Yeah, the prices are the prices.  I think there was a recent post on SuFu pointing out pricing from a few years back and what they are now with some mention of the decline of the dollar for us poor Americans.  The increase isn't actually much.

I mean, honestly, they're a luxury brand just like other brands some of us are into.  Either you're into it and you'll shell out or you won't.

DAMN!!!

[nameness]

Super quick shipping, plus one for Concept Shop.

Got something else too ;).  More pics later this week mayhaps, waiting on something else.

def wanna see pics, enjoy them!

[nameness]

The leather is actually really thick and pretty stiff.  Was kind of surprised (in a good way).  The leather wraparound laces and the texture of the sole are nice touches.  While they're not mass appealing they're definitely unique and I'm glad I snagged 'em.  I think they will start to look even better once worn-in.

Oh man those are nice!!! KUDOS!

[rocket]

seconded, very very nice and thanks for the pics

[shoque]

I'm not really into Visvim, but wouldn't mind a pair of Virgil boots or a Ballistic backpack.

Does anybody of you guys own both, Common Projects and a pair of Virgils, and let me know how to size them?

Ballistic 20L:

[madmonday]

that's a nice looking pack.

good flicks nameness.

[nameness]

Virgils run TTS.  Find a retailer who sells CPs and try them on, their sizing is wacky.

[nameness]

My Logans, both Elk.  Stupid comfortable.

[madmonday]

^^^^

see these are both up my alley.

not that i'm low key or anything but those "folks" are a bit too rockNroll for my old a$$

[Finn666]

so how many you got sir nameness?

[nameness]

The Logans are rad, they also come in a "lo" version (not my pic):

Monday - I'm tempted to ship these to you just so you can touch them.  You won't believe how soft they are.  These are one of the more common models I see floating around lightly used, you should be able to snag a pair pretty easily.  Just a heads up they run half a size big.

Finn - Too many.

My Yucca Moc Folk.  These will be going up for sale shortly.  Great shoes, just don't wear 'em enough.
