Any info on this piece

"Visvim Kuba tee s/s" im assuming its from 2011 (idk which season)

Curious about the embellishments on the shirt pocket , its some sort of vintage african fabric?

Sorry about my English/grammar im not a native speaker 🙏
yes, everything you said is correct. they also made BD shirts with similar embellishments on the lower side hems.

adobofriedrice420?

So I'm not the only Filipino pot head on this forum :)

Anybody know how these new lhamo fit?


Im more of a size 4 for the older 2016-17 as the size 3 is just too snug on me. But have heard that the current ones are more generous cut now.

I have that exact lhamo. I went tts. It has slightly high armholes that are a little tight at times, but if I went up a size the sleeves would be way too long. For context, I only wear mine with a tee.

I think lhamo would look better if they were a bit loose and slightly oversized.

got any fit pic bro?
5’8 145lb - size 2. It’s fairly loose everywhere except the arm holes. Even at tts the sleeves are slightly long and stack at the cuff. If you go up a size you’ll likely need to have the sleeves hemmed or wear them rolled up.

Im bout the same height as you. Though im around 10kg heavier. Wow, size 2 look perfect on you over there. Im wondering if sz 3 is what i need now. I dont mind longer sleeves as i plan to roll them up tbh

did you have any experience with older season lhamo shirts?

If your 165lbs you should get a 3 for sure. I have not tried any other lhamos.

FWIW I'm a generous 5'8" and I can wear the old season lhamos but they're a bit tight. New season lhamos fit me way better... I'm 160 lbs or so.

I was at the visvim store, they recommended me size 2, I'm 5'6. I tried it on and had to roll my sleeves up. Because size 1 was a little tight on the chest.

I work out regularly. So my delts, traps and arm are bigger than the usual guys these are originally tailored for.

the sz 3 lhamo bandana i got was super snug on the arm and shoulder area.

Same. My body fat is around 12-13% so I’m a “big” 145lb. You can see a little bit of tension around my shoulders in the photo. If your a jacked 165 then 4 should work well, aside from the sleeve length. Let us know how it turns out!
