[Inquiry] Why is visvim selling so expensive? (footwear)

On July 2nd this week, is there a little-known story, technique, or people behind every piece of clothing and every pair of shoes? Then, let's take a look at visvim, which has been "selling expensive". Where exactly are you expensive?

In the era of industrial mass production of flowing water, the cost is everything, but in the century of Zhongcun, it is counter-propelled and it always focuses on every aspect of material selection and production. The following will continue to explore the root causes of visvim, the protagonist is the classic FOLEY-FOLK shoes.

Horween Leather Co. & FOLEY-FOLK CORDOVAN - The finest leather in horses

Visvim FOLEY-FOLK resembles the silhouette of Stan Smith and can be described as a casual representative of the entire product line, but in terms of craftsmanship, they are far apart from each other. Especially the horse skin version of this pair of FOLEY-FOLK CORDOVAN. Its raw material supplier is famous for its hundred-year-old leather factory Horween Leather Co. In addition, Nakamura Century visited the headquarters of the Horween factory and filmed a footage of FOLEY-FOLK CORDOVAN's raw materials. Members can check out the above video.

Unlike cowskin and pigskin subdivisions, horseskin is split into two parts directly from the body and buttocks, and the buttocks can only be cut into an optimal part that resembles the shape of the "glasses" - SHELL CORDOVAN. This area is smooth enough to barely see pores, and it is wear-resistant and easy to care for. Due to the scarcity of production, they are known as diamonds in leather. Nowadays, there are only a few manufacturers who have processed horseskin hip skins with old procedures. Horween Leather Co. is one of them, and is also the supplier of many brands of top leather products.

After the raw material of horse hip skin is purchased, it is subjected to multiple processes such as water immersion, hair removal, and softening, and deep sea fish fat is added to the skin to make the finished product full of luster. The final visvim FOLEY-FOLK CORDOVAN has a shiny leather effect. Shoes made from the top SHELL CORDOVAN leather can be passed on to the next generation as long as they are properly handled.

You and I all know that in fact not only visvim, many clothing brands will use historical fabrics and unique textures to create a single product. Therefore, these things are actually not visvim's most powerful tricks.

Looking at the improved foundation of “extending the future from the past”, basically every brand has different comprehension and understanding of this kind of design link. In this respect, it can be said that visvim is the best and the best. In the last issue, it may be worthwhile to review visvim's various transformation talents.

Visvim Study & Practice Exhibition - Constant Learning from the Classic

Nakamura Century, who has always enjoyed traveling around, once held a single-item exhibition in 2011. However, the 10th anniversary event was named “Study & Practice”. As its name suggests, it is to display visvim’s classic single items over the years. The reference styles of these popular works can be viewed from another perspective as half a century of personal collections of Nakamura.

Most of the reference styles on display come from ethnic groups in the Americas. Why? Nakamura Century explained that because he personally admired this kind of loyalty to the natural life, his materials are taken from the tribal living environment. These things also have Symbolizes the meaning of freedom.

Nakamura Century also said in some interviews that from time to time he would wear antiques and shoes from all over the world and personally experience this kind of design from the past. After he has learned the essence, he recasts the styles that belong to visvim. In order to maximize their own understanding of the product. In view of this, these styles that have been improved by visvim can inherit the features of the past regardless of their outlines and details, and at the same time, they can ingeniously inject the transformation elements suitable for modern aesthetics.

There is a different modernity in the improved design

Here's an analogy. Also inspired by the antique Hunting Boot's shoes, with different stitches, followed by TPU details, canvas parts and zippers, it's easy to feel visvim's GRIZZLY BOOT (right ) Will be slightly more modern than the Yuketen brand DB Boot (left), perhaps this is the embodiment of "learn form the past and pass something on to the future". (There is no intention to offend Yuketen here. It's just that each brand has a different degree of adjustment to the modified product.)

The brand's commercial operating costs will not be discussed here, nor is it necessary for costume consumers to understand things in depth. We only need to know that all the thoughts that the products spend before and after production are sufficient. The contents of four consecutive issues have all been broadcasted. We have a certain understanding of why visvim is selling so expensive, or you may have a certain understanding. However, this “value for money” problem is different from person to person, and it will never be considered as one. The answer to "standard" can be done as much as possible.
