I do like it but it's expensive for sure. I think the u.s. retail price is around 2300usd so it would be a good idea to proxy from japan. I was told it's painted canvas too

yea! expensive... JP retail is 136400yen.
I heard that only very small quantities made. when I purchase this, i’ll post it.

thank you for the information.

you have any pictures of 21ss lumber crash shirt ivory color or fishtail olive too?

because proxy(we chat seller) are encouraged to purchase before release. lol

Hi guys, haven't looked at Vis in a while but I saw an iris vest for sale near me that's the iteration with the tile pattern embroidery on the sides. Most things check out but the riri zipper has a flat rectangle metal pull instead of the rounded end pull that's on my liner jacket and most versions of the iris that I've ever seen. Did they ever make it with this zipper version or am I looking at a fake or some replacement?

I think the production numbers are pretty limited this season (continuation of COVID) so a lot of the popular stuff, sizing wise, might not even make it to general retail on Saturday (there's a pre-release event on Friday). Resellers probably need to get their SA's to hold stuff. Additionally I think there's a maximum amount a single SA can hold to avoid too much of the inventory going into resale.

So I want to pre-order charlie bags. What do you mean by SA?

however, the fabric is not soft. very stiff. Probably because of the mud dyed

What's the retail on that? I didn't look at it when it first came but it's definitely grown on me as I see it in pictures more.

Strong piece to start putting in here as a last purchase.

I love anything down related, and especially the recent vis bits that have a 70s Sierra Designs look with the different interior colour. Very nice.
