this happens often, I guess they just clear the stock through some retailers or FIL only.

Yeah I have been able to ask for past season items when at FIL in person…

just need Japan to lift those travel restrictions

Yeah I have been able to order items years later that are not on the web site. I think they just like to keep up the image of scarcity for brand appeal.

Do like the Caban shirt. Is that a size down job? I have a free edge lattice before that was a 4 and definitely should have sized down.

Also - the price for Wallace shoes?! Hiroki can have a day off!

WALLACE DECK-FOLK (BLACK,DK.BROWN,BURGUNDY) ¥108,000 + TAX

Outside of special items, they usually only keep a few seasons of older merchandise around in stores. I'm not really sure what's going on with the website though since it only seems to have SS20 for non-ICT right now.

I lived in Chiba (just outside of Tokyo) for school during college in 2019. I miss it so so much, the visvim store in Omotesando was the store I went to most frequently when I was there. Amazing staff, I speak conversational level Japanese and they either spoke English almost fluently or they were very patient with me. Currently, I'm gathering work experience here in America so I can return and get employed in the Tokyo area, hopefully next year... fingers crossed.

Hey can you guys take a look at this for me? I bought this off a verified seller on eBay a while ago. Just now noticed that there is not a wash tag on it. Everything on it looks legit to me. Stitching is great, buttons, zippers, tag, hand painted graphic on back all look great. It’s called a Roadster Swing Prime from SS17 just so you know. Just looking to get a second opinion on it.
