I think the consensus is size down in skags...

I am looking at a pair of 18AW Skagways Hi (JP Canvas) in Black, and wondered if anyone can say if they fit TTS? They are US9, which is what I take in Virgil Boots for example, but my US 9 Skagway slip-ons from 2014 are really too big, maybe by a full size. Seems like you may need to size down for Visvim sneakers generally? Thanks in advance folks.

all the skagway with new sole (tag moved to front) need to size up for 0.5

I have the exact same pair and as with all my Skags I sized down 1/2.

Skags are the only sneakers I size down on. Attica and Roland Joggers I size up a full size because they run narrow. FBT’s I size up 1/2.

Thanks, folks. Yeah, I think I will pass and look out for a US8.5. Not urgent, but this pair looked pristine, and not a bad price, so I was tempted. Cheers for keeping me on the straight and narrow.

Kinda new to the brand and have been debating picking up a piece with all the sales going around. How do you size the eiger pants?

The Kapital Tugihagi knits are so great, although a bit scratchy. I love the idea of a hoodie underneath -- looks so good.

Thank you and agreed.

I also wore just a tee underneath and it’s not scratchy at all.

Yeah I wear mine over a tee too and it's not too bad. But the different yarns or materials they used to knit it up are really crazy. Some are pretty rough.

Can't wait for covid times to be over so I have more reasons to bust out the larger kesa.

Wondering if any of you guys have any experience with the 101 down vests that released earlier this year?

Would love to see a fit pit personally, lots of ppl seem to have sold theirs- may look weird because of the traditional collar? Think theyre similar to the iris vest in sizing, meaning up 1 from US sizing (US large should be a 4, etc). Fabric is a nylon cotton blend, think it was the same fabric as the kenai from 19aw.
