@whatsthis I'm 9.5/10 and I wore the M for a shoot. Was snug without adjusting. I'd probably say you're cool in the S

Cool thanks, the issue now is that I don't think there are any S available anywhere lol. If anybody knows a spot that has S in stock (flexible on color), let me know!

I don't think they have size S released for those. The smallest that they have made is size M according to their website.

Does Visvim ever respond to emails? I’ve sent a few in the past and never received a response. Today I ordered a pair of Christos and two minutes later received a cancellation email but haven’t gotten a refund or any correspondence about it. Reached out but I haven’t heard back.

Hiroki is busy soaking your cash in mid to make a special paper noragi for John Mayer.
Seriously though, they are a bit slow to respond in my experience. Give it at least a day or so.

Also, it’s only about 11:50 am in Tokyo right now so if it was earlier today they might not have gotten to it yet.

Ha wouldn’t be surprised. JM definitely gets the special treatment. Kicking myself for not copping the White christos sooner. Guess they were sold out but not updated on the site? Maybe I’ll get lucky and they can still process it.

Which white ones did you get? The blanket or the bandana style?

Ordered the bandana. When Vis relaunched the new webstore the other week they had a couple of sizes in some older released Christos. Guess they were old stock or returns?

Not sure. I noticed that too. I like the bandanas but I really want the white blanket ICT version. Prices are crazy but there are still a few Vis grail items for me with no satisfactory alternatives.

Well I hope they at least process my refund. Kinda surprised by the quality of the customer service given the popularity of the brand.

Spoke with the Santa Fe store and my order was canceled because the Christo's had a defect and was the last pair they had in stock. Anyway I was educated on the bi-annual trunk shows the brand does and apparently that's how you score the rare items, such as prototypes that the brand decides not to make full production runs on for the upcoming seasons. You place a pre-order, typically 30% down and you receive your item in roughly 6 months. Decided I'm going to take a weekend trip to Santa Fe check to check out the show in August and hopefully acquire a few nice pieces.

Do they only do the trunk shows in santa fe or maybe also sometimes on the east cost somewhere (NYC)?

Also, just dove into visvim after falling in love with the shaman-folk christos. I think I snagged @shopcanoeclub's last pair in brown.

The guy I spoke to also mentioned they do it in LA. Not sure about NYC.
