The previous release of the Kaws x Visvim Zahra black version was a sneaker that was talked about quite a bit and the past weekend marked the release of the white version of the shoe. This version is sold only at Original Fake and F.I.L. in Japan, so for those interested be sure to get them quick before there all gone.

Visvim presents yet another new sneaker in its line-up – the Logan. Clearly taking inspiration from Vans, Visvim once again manages to make the shoe look more detailed and presents it in premium leathers and with very nice suede accents.
While some of the Visvim shoes are harder to wear because they are so different, these are definitely not part of that category and are simple enough to go with anything. Definitely a nice addition to their collection. For some people they might be too close to the Vans and not worth the extra money. But if you want something more high-end then this is the way to go.

Shortly after the collaboration of Visvim with Kaws on the Zahra slip-on, they now present a new collaboration on the same shoe with Sophnet. This one is kept rather simple and features premium black leather and perforated pattern on the toe box. It kind of mixes a traditional “Budapest” leather shoe with a slip-on, which is an interesting combination

Visvim also starts the year strong. they already got the White Collection. The collection consists of the FBT, Skynyrd Ring Moccasin and the Serra boot. Incredible how extreme a shoe can look that is just white. Especially the white sole is really strong. These already dropped in Japan and should also be available soon selected stores in limited quantities.

By now, most of you have heard about this project, Visvim’s special line catering to the US market, Supertouch spoke to Hiroki Nakamura about what its about.
“In a matter of weeks Japanese footwear & clothing maker VisVim will debut their special US line to a legion of dedicated followers. To celebrate, Vis threw an intimate party at the company’s Los Angeles HQ over Labor Day weekend where the crew mingled with an array of tastemakers such as Craig Stecyk, Hiroshi Fujiwara, Huf, & Shawn Stüssy, among others. Supertouch stopped by to take a peek and pick the brain of VisVim creative director Hiroki Nakamura. We had some free Bar-B-Q too…”

It was only a matter of time until we saw a Visvim x Kaws collab coming. And it came already sooner than expected. Kaws and the japanese brand got together on a pair of slip-ons. They come in black and feature the signature cross eyes of the artist on them. Simple and to the point. Just beautiful!
