The Ultimate Vass (Footwear) Thread (Pictures, reviews, sizing, etc...)

[Mr Tewkesbury]

Regarding my earlier pair, Rezso replied me about a week after I sent my email. I think he still helps out Vass from time to time to settle the old orders.

As to newer emails, i'm not sure if anyone is checking on them, if at all.

I see. I suppose there is no hurry. Will maintain a sporadic communication attempt.

@Mr Tewkesbury Rezso has left Vass permanently, but indeed he helps out Eva Vass with the current orders, to make sure there is an easy transitation.

Communication is slow currently, that's a fact. I dont' think I know anyone who worked that long at night and that vigorously as Rezso, especially when it came to emails.

Is there a way to view a gallery of this thread's images? I can't seem to figure this one out.

 

[Mr. Six]

The gallery feature died with the move to the new forum platform. Fok has said he'd like to resurrect it but it won't be soon. Which is really too bad.

 

[velomane]

Indeed, it was a wonderful way of having a look at all the great shoes in this thread.

Dk brown suede Norweger on P2 Vibram sole & steel eyelets

The Norweger is one Vass model I haven't had much interest in. Until now. Do want. Great makeup.

Here are some Vass photos from my classifieds listing (sorry if this is cheeky)

mo their Norweger is second only to the Budapester (on Budapest last) for 'iconic' Vass. In suede it's so versatile. Been getting into biker style, so these are meant for jeans and flannel checks

Does Vass have a longwing model?

 

[Notch]

They do, there are versions on the U last, P2 last, F last, Budapest last and as high boot, but I'm sure they'll transfer the pattern to any last.

Budapest last:

F last:

High boot version:

P2 version:

And finally U last:

Longwing on F looks amazing.

Longwing on F looks amazing.

Agreed but I am wondering if it is just the angle of the picture? Because F should be sleek and I would have guessed it wouldn't look good on a longwing which should be beefy.

 

[naspratt]

I think it's the welt; it makes it look beefy on a sleek welt, which I love here. Other one I like best is Budapest, which is super beefy. The U looks too sleek and the flat welt doesn't help it out.

Edit: @Notch, which last is the high boot on here?

 

[Mr. Six]

Longwing on F.

 

[Notch]

@naspratt The boots are on P2, a great design by NMWA.
