new sunglasses

i picked up a very nice 50's inspired frame, which is handmade in Japan. it is part of the Outdoor Code collection, a collaboration between London based Garbstore and Solid Blue from Japan. it came with lilac smoke glasses, so i had them swapped for some black Carl Zeiss lenses.

visvim Fabro-Folk

i'm not a big fan the classic Penny Loafer, but when, i'd pick one of these from visvim. using vegetable tanned italian cowhide with a horse hide liner provides utmost quality and comfort.
the Goodyear welted sole makes everything perfect, so you can resole them if you need to.

latest pickups...
visvim update

already a few days in my possession, here are the latest additions to my visvim stock. i was lucky
to find a Yucca Moc-Folk from the SS11 collection in my size. the yellow color is really radiant, but will be perfect for the next summer. for me, the spring/ summer 2011 collection had the best visvim tag ever, with this neat little mountain skyline.
the Canoe Moc Mid-Folk is a bit older, as it's from AW09. it was a F.I.L. exclusive back then.
quite heavy, due to the thick leather and the crepe sole it will come in handy for the upcoming winter months. the cracked leather looks awesome and the construction is top-notch as i'm used
to from visvim.
