Visvim’s latest collaboration with fellow Japanese premium streetwear brand, mastermind Japan, has brought a new Foley Folk to retail. This Foley Folk uses a premium Black leather that composes the entire upper of the shoe. The shoe’s lacing system uses a zipper to enclose and keep these shoes on your feet like the rest of the Visvim and mastermind Japan collaborations we’ve seen in the past. In addition you can see both company’s logos on the inner part of the arch. Pick these up now at select Visvim and mastermind Japan retailers including We Sold Out.

Visvim Christo Mayan

Visvim has always been known to be a company that draws inspiration for its designs from across the world. Now, this sick pair of Visvim Christo Mayans have taken things to the next level,design-wise. In terms of heritage, the design of these sandals draws inspiration from the ancient Mayans, and their colorful footwear. With the designs of modern footwear combined with the colorways of yesteryear, these Visvims are certainly an uncommon site. These are definitely an international pair of kicks if there ever were a pair, and while their bright colors might not be for everyone, no doubt some with an affinity for the brighter things in life will find a place in their hearts for these interesting sandals. Available now at Chapter World, via Hypebeast.


Visvim’s newest FBT release is dubbed the “Bear Foot” which seems to have sought inspiration from none other than a bear’s foot. The FBT comes in three colorways including Light Brown, Dark Brown, and Black. The upper uses a soft material which follows many of the materials found only on Visvim product’s. You can pick these up now at the hnyee.Store.

Nike x Nitro - Air Force 1 Supreme - Influencer Pack

The Nike 1World Influencer Pack has been generating a ton of energy for Nike’s newly launched Nike Sportswear collection. Some critics and Air Force 1 enthusiasts were a bit disappointed with how the Air Force 1 was celebrated during it’s 25th Anniversary, arguing that there were too many models, too high prices, and not enough time in between releases to save up money for the next pair. Now that the 25th Anniversary is over, Nike has taken it’s time to give the Air Force 1 a new look via the 1World collaboration series of shoes with 18 different influencers worldwide. The first Air Force 1 for the Asia Pacific region comes way of Nitro Microphone Underground, specifically their artist Gore-Texer. This Air Force 1 Supreme features a 3M reflective (mosaic) Digi Camo pattern on the entire upper for the AF1 Low, a Black Swoosh, and a visible heel Air unit. In addition to the shoes Nitro will be releasing a matching New Era cap and t-shirt. Thanks to Pete from Premium Laces and All Day for providing the package!

Bape White Polka Dot Pinstipe Madstas NFS Exclusive

Bape continues their theme of the recent polka dot release, but this time the colorway is toned down for those looking for something not as loud. The Bape White Polka Dot Pinstipe Madstas (or Bapestas) feature patent leather with printed patterns that play off of Bape’s signature white camo print colorway. However, these may be a bit harder to get since they are a Nigo’s Favorite Shop Exclusive and only available to residents in Japan with a Bape Membership Card. But you can also cop them at Cliffedge.
