Keeping up with the metallic trend that’s been prevalent in Women’s fashion this fall 2009 season . We bring you the latest installment of the Nike WMNS Dunk High Skinny “Sequin Pack”. This particular pair comes in a red/black colorway, with the main design element being the metallic leather and a glitter-like side panels. via SneakerFreaker
We’ve come to expect calculated insanity from Visvim. Considering their catalogue of embellished chukkas, sandals and hightop sneakers, this might be the best representation of the company’s vision so far. The Visvim Malisset Elk-Folk is a lowtop moccasin-like shoe with a rich, tumbled black leather upper. It sits atop a crepe sole that looks to have a strip of wood on top and features a carbon fiber heel plate. Toss in the corded laces, beads sewn into the toe and tassles on the heel and these are complete (-ly ‘Visvim’). Grab a pair today from colette.
As if the Visvim FBT Lattice weren’t interesting enough, it’s back in some crazy colours. The ‘collared’ chukka appears above in three new suede versions. There’s one each in electric blue, violet and red. Each has a white midsole for a nice summery feel. You might remember these colours, as they graced a pack of Colette-exclusive Kiefers earlier in the spring. Should you be so inclined (and sufficiently wealthy), grab a pair or two from Colette.
Visvim already released their Christo Stripe sandals earlier this month, but these look a little cooler (literally). The Visvim Christo Sherpa Folk appears above in three new editions that look like they could (or already have) handle(d) the toughest of mountain conditions. In a combination of brown joints and another in black. The lighter brown pair features a purple stripe, while the darker has orange accents and the black pair ops for blue. All of these can be yours now if you’re near any F.I.L locations. via HB
Visvim has made its name by adding distinctive twists to classic styles and this newest collection is a perfect example. The Visvim Beuys Trekker Mini-Folk takes the classic Wallabee-like moccasin toed chukka and adss a few tasty touches. These four pairs each follow the same formula: rich suede upper with irregular toebox shaping to enhance the handmade look, a plastic cup on the heel in an accent colour and the same colour replicated on the embroidery of an otherwise white tongue tag. All of them also feature the Clarks’ signature crepe soles, but these look a bit stiffer than the OG Wallabees. There are three pairs in various shades of brown and another in black. The lightest brown pair features purple accents while the others have red and the black pair opts for blue. All three of these are ready now at F.I.L. via HB
Summer’s right around the corner and the latest Vivsim sandals are here. Featuring five new pairs, the Visvim Christo Stripe Collection for Spring/Summer 2009 offers a simple take on the Japanese brand’s strappy sandal. Each pair features a single colour that takes on a tonal effect when spread across the sole, straps and upper plus an accent colour striping the middle of the strap. Pairs in black/blue, carbon/yellow, brown/red, gray/purple and olive green/orange are available now at Visvim retailers. via HB
Visvim showed us some new Skagway lowtops earlier this week in denim with dirty soles, but wants us to remember that the model is quite versitile. The Visvim Skagway is back in denim, but this time as a laceless lowtop slip-on or a hightop. The lowtop features the Skagway’s signature grid sans laces, while the hightops stretch it vertically. The slip-ons are only available in blue, whereas the hightops come in white, blue, orange or black. These are available now for pre-order from SampleKickz. via HS
We saw a pair of Chucks a little while back that look like they’ve been mowed in, but this new pair of cap-toed lowtops remind your author of the nine year-old pair he wears whilst weightlifting. The Visvim Skagway Lo Denim is a different take on the vintage look, eschewing yellowed soles and laces in favor of a grimy, blackened look. There are four new pairs here, so you can pick between black, blue, white or orange. Each features the aforementioned ‘dirty’ soles and a red ‘VSVM’ tag on its heel. Rather than spending a decade to make your own, get a new pair with intact cushioning today from Undefeated.
