@@shopoverdye I have a few pieces…I love the concept, just isn’t really my style…but I always support independent/ boutique brands…not only are the pieces much more well thought out, but the community who wears them are 1000 times more friendly
Yeah those are some of the sleepers I love as well. Surprised the skags haven't sold yet, crazy rare nowadays especially in their condition! I'm doing well, thank you! Wbu?
There's been a lot of cases of FBT soles disintegrating. They don't last too long which is a pity especially for the price we pay. And these are not made in Japan.
How old were the FBTs you've seen? I've only seen it happen on pairs that are 15+ years old. Like with any foam, it will crumble if not worn regularly or stored appropriately. As for the "not made in Japan" argument, the factory they use in china is one of the best footwear manufacturers in the world. Seen plenty of fbts that are 20 years old still going strong. Wear them regularly, take care of them, and you should be good!
@@shopoverdye thanks for the reply. If only I could upload pics of those my friends have shown me. They never lasted more than 5 years. How does one verify that this specific Chinese factory is one of the best in the world? Best in terms of? Even if so, unfortunately the same can’t be said of the material they use for the soles
@@shopoverdye not sure if this can be said for most of them. Don’t get me wrong, I certainly hope they can be held to the highest standards. I should know coz I’m Chinese after all :)
Most of these are on consignment from other sellers so I don't really choose the sizes I sell. That's why some of these are huge on me lol! My true size is a size 2/3 in visvim.
I mainly source my items through consignment and don't use Japanese auctions sites that often. But when I do, I exclusively use buyee. Yes you do have to be careful about fake items there. I can help legit check if needed just hmu on ig!
@@shopoverdye Thanks for the reply! I am not that familiar with buyee and seems like they have a bunch of proxy like services. Which specific service are you referring to? Yahoo auctions?
I don’t wear much visvim but I love the enthusiasm in this video watches the whole thing and followed your page
Thank you so much! It means a lot. You should definitely try visvim!

wow amazing pieces! Sizes sort of varies, do you buy the closest sizes?

cool stuffs
Great video as always! Wondering which Japanese shop/auction websites do you usually use? And do you have to worry about fakes from those websites?

@tianweihuang9174 yeah
@@shopoverdye Thanks! Got give it a try
You sure that red t shirt isn’t cochineal? Just curious😊
Yes I'm sure!
is the fbt sizing smaller just for that 14 season or for all fbts
It seems like it. All other fbts I've tried are usually tts or you can size down a half size.
Do the 23ss chinos run a size smaller? I think you usually wear size 2s but wondering why you got 3s for that
It was one of those things where it was a really good price and didn't mind them fitting a bit big in the waist. But yes I would prefer a 2 in them
Are those the Field chino or the New Chino pants DMGd?
@redstonerredstoner414 chino pants dmgd
Do you have any Visvim Motors Club pieces?
No I didn't pick anything up from the latest release
holy cow what an insanes pick up video. what in the world.
Welcome to my channel lol
Hey! Since you’re the Vis expert, I was wondering how the Wallace deck folk fit?
Hey! They fit tts!
Do grizzlies fit tts?
I tend to think so but most people size down a half size from tts
@@shopoverdye got it, thank you. I wish Visvim made smaller footwear sizes
@friedbeefjerky you can look at the women's footwear line
so many heaters
Am so sleepy I thought thumbnail was trump being eaten alive
