*** Visvim thread: Dissertation on a Japanese Holy Spirit ***

Great was probably an overstatement. Agreed that the Strabler and Christo are my favorites. I like the design on the white Rayon shirt and that light brown western jacket a bit though.

Agree, SS20 looks wackkk. I hate how they insist on using these prepubescent ectomorphs to model the clothes. Probably cuz sizing is ridiculously small nowadays

 

[Fycus]

Shoulders are absolutely ridiculous on almost everything. Happy to see they are utilizing more roomy fits, but really think they need to modify more of their patterns since almost everything is skintight. At 6'1 190 I really shouldn't have to wear size 5, but thats almost exclusively what fits me sans the super long arms.

Agreed! Although I guess the sizing still works for his biggest market.

Hiroki doesn't give a **** how it fits us, lol

So this might be a taboo question, but has anyone found a decent alternative to an Iris? I really like the piece but can’t justify shelling out that much for it.

Ideally looking for a vest with the same neck line as the Iris, something in a cotton or matte material in big boy sizes.

Thanks! The alpha ones I’ve seen aren’t cotton I don’t think, but I haven’t checked out 3sixteen.

I have a Soulive Artisan Liner that's decent enough. Pretty shameless viz ripoff though

 

[nekromantik]

do people actually pay £1200 for a pair of jeans from them?
Even on discount at 50% thats a lot!

 

[Emixam]

iris being a repro, soulive didn't rip it off, but I know what you mean. Soulive litterally copied the whole lineup of visvim, brand is now dead already. They were selling their remaining stock iris for 10k yens last July ... RIP.

 

[EhVos]

did anyone get the black rolands on mrporter in a 10.5/11? pm if you did

 

[srh3161]

Which footwear styles have the widest toe box?

 

[norigim]

Looks like Soul Live was actually owned by Blue Japan (e.g. Momotaro), interestingly enough.
