Hey I'm relatively new when it comes to Visvim. Hell I'm new to this forum as well which I haven't heard about half my life. I just have one question to ask of all of the existing members here. Is it good?? Because I have never tried Japanese Clothing before!

Here is the reverse side. I probably will return it for peace of mind. Thanks for the feedback!

People have been returning fakes to SSENSE. I've seen people post about it on XHS (basically Chinese IG) and saying Chinese people have ruined SSENSE by doing this lol.

I've been picking up quite a few boots lately and it seems like this is the sizing

virgil / brigadier - very TTS (cant wear heavy socks with these)
Halfdome duck /Poundmaker - .5 up

sound right>?

 

[Fycus]

I don't know about the ducks but some of the newer boots like the scout and the cossack could be a full size up job. I tried the ss25 equivalent to the scout (its the same but without a moc toe), and the other boot in horsehide that is doc marten adjacent, and I fit an 11 and 10.5 respectively and im normally a 9.5 in 73/grizz and 10 in brig/virgil. To make things more confusing, I got a 10 in the wabanakis that are releasing soon since the last seemed closer to a virgil, though the 11 I tried wasn't unbelievably large

ICT Hellion Down Jkt looks nice. On one hand how many warm down jackets does one need… but on the other I think it seems easier to wear than going full bandana kerchief. For anyone who has both: is the Hellion any different fit-wise from the updated Kerchief? Or just a kerchief sans the yoke stitching and with buttons and pocket flaps?

 

[Fycus]

I've had both - its definitely in line with the newer kerchief sizing, but the hellion seems slimmer in the body with really long arms(?) I could be tripping, but do feel like hellion runs a tad longer for the same size. But yes to the other things like buttons instead of snaps, side seam pockets, and a kind of annoying collar tab that cannot be stowed.

 

[norigim]

Yeah, the ICT kerchief is probably the standout piece for me. Also wondering if they are going to productionize the checker flag shirts. Looks like kurumi kasuri and maybe extremely limited (was it a trunk show exclusive lottery?)

Anyone know what colours the plain lumber comes in this season?

I noticed a plain khaki one in some screenshots, but didnt show other colours. Nor does the lookbook I have.

If anyone is interested I am selling a Corps Down in perfect condition size 2. SOLD

That's a steal @snaye

Anybody have the red FW21 jumbo crash hoodie/crew for sale?

 

[sloweasy]

Hey y'all. Anyone have experience handling any of the collegium sweaters? Curious about sizing and overall thoughts on the piece.

Anyone US based imported anything from Japan lately? Figured I'd have to worry about some import fees, but looks like 20% UPS is "asking for" on a cotton/linen shirt.

That sound right to anyone that's done it recently?

 

[norigim]

Just depends on your luck. I've gotten anywhere form 0% for thousands of dollars imported to the full published duty of 20%+ on other items.
