>inb4 "how much was he?"
The jeans anons, the jeans

>>11290352
idg why they are so expensive. What do they have over a pair of Allen Edmonds or Church brogues?
Is it just the label?

>>11290429

My guess is materials, construction, and the name. Also, idk if Visvm is like other jap brands, but there tends to be a pretty steep overseas markup (ala Undercover), so they go for a good deal more in America than they do domestically

>>11290433
Could be that the cost of labor in Japan jacks up the price too *shrugs*
Wear them in good health anon

>>11290429
I bet our saviour Hiroki shined them with his own spit and jizz.
Probably made from 100 year old Tibetan Yak tongue leather or something like that as well.

#blessed

>>11290429
The styling and the materials are probably better than the lower end ae churchs
Maybe a little markup cus it's visvim too
But they are gorgeous shoes

>>11290429
>>11290433
>>11290441
I'm the OP. All valid points, but vis has recently moved some of its production overseas to China. Mainly fbt's iirc.

I picked vis cz i liked their shape and quality. Been looking for a chunky derby type shoe for a while and these fit the bill. Saw em a few years back but couldn't justify copping then at retail.

Other candidates were Sanders (who makes thom browne footwear?) and church's. Funnily i got these on sale so they were cheaper than both, last item in my size in the colour/model i wanted

>>11290393
I'd love to see fit pics, I was gonna cop either this or the black one

Found these Coach chukka boots for $20.

Been finding some cool vintage stuff on eBay. Next I plan on getting one of those rodeo style shirts and some comfy linen pants.

>>11290889
Got this shirt too.

>>11290889
>>11290893
Close up of the print.

>>11290352
is 450 dollaros a fair price for a visvim x mastermind boots?

>>11290903
What condition? Brand new? Secondhand?

I'd say so if new, but at the end of the day its also gonna depend on why you like them, which then justifies your purchase.

>>11290841
It comes in tomorrow. I was thinking my all white Stan Smith's and dark Calvin klein slim jeans plus polo hat. Will post in tomorrow's WAYWT thread

>>11290893
>>11290898

depending on how you present yourself, could be either really dope or mad autistic

>>11291036
They only way I could see anyone bulling this off is as outerwear or like Matt of the 1975.

This would look dope with some SLP denim and Chelsea

Anyone know of some good ebay thrift stores?

>>11290429

>>11290889
Yea been wanting to dress towards western this summer. been meaning to cop a good western shirt. any particular brands are you looking at? is "rodeo style" the term?

related. number (n)ine, from grailed, arrived yesterday.

>>11291064
"Western shirt" gets the best results in my experience. Pretty much any vintage work wear/western wear brand should be good (dee cee, wrangler, etc.). Personally I would only buy a western shirt if it's made in the USA because otherwise it's not really western.

two turtledoves sz8 and sz9

gotta get ready for winter

>>11291056
Dude sounds assblasted but theres some really good content in there

Reminds me of the ICT virgil discussion on styleforum(?) and a whole range of other products vis brings out.

>>11289453
>Neighborhood.
Does it have some god awful logoing somewhere?

>>11291313
Lol yes, on the back there's a logo. I don't mind it tho

be gentle

>>11292371
Mind posting a picture of the logo? I would cop so much of their shit if they didn't insist on putting giant logos everywhere

>>11292945
also copped these 2 tees in addition to shoes

>>11292945

Very happy with them

>>11289406
Don't know why people insist on buying this. How much did you pay for it?

>>11290352
this has to be bait

lpu

>>11294811

>>11294822

>>11292945
not too bad in that colorway, you did good

>>11289916

>>11294604
good cop

>>11292986
this is the white tee but otherwise logo placement is identical

>>11295134
That shit annoys me so much for some reason, it would've been so good without that

I bought this corduroy jacket thing. Tag is unreadable.

Why? Because it was $9.

>>11295477
that's sick, i love it

yes

>>11295527
mad sales huh

From Beckett Simonon during their sneaker campaign.

>>11293933

>>11294811

>>11296166

>>11296232
thats cause youre a cuck

>>11296166
they look so good in pictures, when to see some and they were overrated in real life :(

>>11290352
these are tj/tk maxx tier

>>11291056
I mean, maybe, but wouldn't this be a great reinforcement mechanism
>create a bunch of hype around a brand by being this willy wonka-esque character (not saying this isn't clever)
>make your products inordinately expensive. the quality on par with products of respectible brands 1/2, 1/3 the price
>wait for middle class people to get indignant
>people who have bought your product get defensive and say (what else?) that the brand's critics are too poor to have an opinion that matters
>middle/upper middle class people fear class shaming so some are cowed into silence and some are shamed into buying a few entry-level brand items (or maybe splurging on an expensive jacket from the brand)
at which point either
a)
>middle class clientele view their suspicions confirmed. the brand was overhyped and the quality of the design and construction is out of sync with the price point
b)
>They enjoy the clothing item and make peace with the money they spent on it or
c)
>They feel the need to justify the expense by becoming rabid fanatics of the brand on fashion boards denouncing any critics as (what else?) poor.
I don't see any visvim products that move me to spend that sort of cash and I'm glad anyone who does, enjoys their clothing articles.
I also understand that when you buy a product from visvim, on top of the design, the materials and the construction quality, you are also buying the quirky reclusiveness and mystique that Nakamura spins around his brand, in addition to the luxury of owning something that not many can afford (it's nice to not wear the same shit as everyone else)

>>11296235
nike fag

/tv/ here
Is this what you faggots actually wear? Lmao

>>11296297
why did that pic make me laugh

>>11296359
idiot

>>11296368
I blame google image search

>>11296369
full size. I like mountains.

Bought this sukajan. A bit expensive but it's stunning imo. Loving it.

>>11296606
what are you going to wear with it? Some pretty plain pants and shoes?

>>11296631
Yeah. I have a nice pair of Levis 501 and a pair of New Balance 574. Other than the jacket, keeping it simple.

Yes or na

>>11296642
that sounds like its gonna be a shitty outfit
either go all out with the jacket or don't bother

>>11296741
idk, the colors are nice, but something about af1's, man. I haven't touched a pair for almost a decade, now that I think about it.

I'm getting old, senpai.

>>11289842
lol is it 2007 again?

>>11294604
id pls

>>11293231
Gay

Finally did it

>>11297029
but why?

>>11297029
s-same senpai, wanted some sneakers clean enough to also wear at office

>>11297074
Because I wanted to for over a year and this summer I did

>>11296297
Sure, but I think it happened purely by accident, not intention - and now that it already happened with visvim, it can't really be replicated. How could Nakamura have predicted the way hype would come to forefront of street fashion through the influence of internet forums?

I think he was just doing his own thing and it happened to turn out that way. It only really comes down to two things on his part: attention to detail and reclusiveness, which aren't at all unique to fashion (Margiela was similarly notorious for his reclusiveness), but he takes both to extremes and happens to be focused on the streetwear market over high fashion, which radically changed to be all about hype, shaming, 'brand clubs', etc. only in the last 2 decades.

Vetements, on the other hand, is clearly fully aware of how they're playing the market on typing hype to pricetag. The two together make an interesting case study actually

Got this and

this. Pretty happy with them although I dont have anything to put them on. I usually wear a harrington but i cant put them on that. I think the only option is a denim jacket, anyone have any suggestions ?

My grandpa threw some sneakers my way

They were free so of course I took them

>>11297947
how munch?

>>11297923
Burn them

Picked these up at a thrift store for $8. Anyone got any info on them? I guess the model is Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 Phoenix version, but I can't find info on release/cost/availability/etc. Don't seem to be many hiding around online, and any sites with pics of them are all weird foreign sites/don't load.

Sorry for the link guys but where can i find this jacket?

I don't get this meme. Why are these shoes suddenly so popular?

>>11303843
>suddenly
Come on now, how new are you?

>>11303853
>the 300$ white shoe with numbers

>>11303858
What relevance does that have? I don't own a pair and I hate them. But they've been super popular here for at least the three years I've browsed

My first chelsea boot, did I do ok aesthetic-wise?

>>11304343

>>11296741

>>11289842

>>11303843
>suddenly

>>11303491

>>11304808

Dont have white skinny but I tried it with pincuffed levis 511 instead

lovem

Got a new watch today. Used to be on that shitty Casio lifestyle but I wanted a nice metal watch to look good while dressing up or playing poker

>>11303500
Dont even know, thet tags says Manhattan.
Sorry.

Just got these in today

>>11305281
Awesome man love the watch

>>11305281

I gave it to my sister. Plus today's fit, Ralph Lauren hockey pullover, sea world dad hat, tommy hil carpenter jeans, Dylan Rieder Hufs

>>11305967
I like the shirt

>>11305977
Thanks homie, it's a pretty easy2c polo hockey pullover

>>11304781
ayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

Just got these and some black levi's. Thinking about a good pair of acne jeans soon.

>>11299028
that's because they're terrible dude.

>>11300893
seems like a perfectly nice t-shirt except for the stupid picture on it

>>11303491
yes.
if you're trying to look like a normie, it's a pretty obnoxious social gaffe
if you're not trying to look like a normie, it's been played out since at least 2009 so...

>>11304343
not really, the unecessary branding at lower left doesn't do much for the aesthetic.
they're ok i guess; hope you didn't pay a lot.

>>11304834
you clearly have long enough jeans to roll the cuffs over another time.
anyway the shoes look terrible.
>>11305164
these too

>>11305161
interesting. has potential.

>>11305932
would be a lot better without the dumb stripe down the side. i don't like the sole either but i think that's more subjective. i think the print looks great on some of their other models.

>>11297947
i really want black on whites

memes

>>11296297
I mostly agree with you seeing vis fanbois froth about how their products are super high quality or are super labour intensive. Does that make it a better product at the end of the day? Maybe, maybe not. Theres a few discussions in sufu for example about ICT virgils which are mud dyed after construction. Unfortunately that extra process results in a weaker build compared to say standard virgils (probably affecting the welt amongst other things) although producing the desired "look". In the same time doing it part by part prior to construction wouldn't give the natural look Hiroki wanted in the first place.

i'm not saying vis items are inherently bad, a lot of the items i've handled have been very interesting to say the least. I also recently got one of their items and very much pleased with it. But was it worth full retail? Personally i don't believe so, at least compared with other products from other makers.

Durability is only one part of perceived quality after all

Outlier Slime Dungarees in black. Got 'em 32 waist and long. I'm 6'4" and 155lbs, they're a little loose around waist but otherwise are super comfy, have a good fit and are premium for biking + water resistant "tech" fabric

pic is not me obv

Hi to you all, I recently bought some 95s air max. They're white with on the outer side a colour pattern for 170 euros worth it or nah?

APC Petit new standard raws, H by Hudson black wantage boots.
Both copped in ssense sale, howd I do bois?

Ordered two MTM popover shirts, one in white that can be tucked in for more formal outfits, one in navy that's shorter and will be used mostly at the beach with swimming shorts.

>>11296258
They are literally just shoes

I don't see myself wearing them too often but I'm glad I was able to get ahold of the ugly mane shirt for a reasonable price

Exact copy of this but it's not from Saint laurent but from celio.

>>11309467
Cz these are clearly superior

Just copped these reebok classics. Can u guys handle this look?

>>11309463
Poo after taking pic

Found these brand new at a thrift store for $8. Some limited edition Onitsuka Tigers. Anyone got any info? Can't find anything online but a handful of pictures from foreign sites.
