Visvim Buckminster



DETAILS:
- schism-based footwear engineering model
- Visvim chimeara chassis
- SupFort2 tongue-to-sidewall stretch mesh gore
- pigsking leather lining with natural bristle-perfed ventilating patterns for breathability
- drysole moisture annihilator footbeds with leather heel pads
- superlight and cushioning EVA Pylon midsole

I have often wondered how much the description of Visvim sells the shoe. Its much more stronger than "made in japan" or " made in italy". Eg. isn't most sneakers breathable as well? but Nike does not focus on such points, however, here we have a company that relies on "bristle-perfed ventilating pattern for breathability". Well I'm sold as of now.

I've actually been after these chukkas for a good year now, finally found the sand colour in my size. Although if you were a us 9 in nike, i'd recommend a us 8.5 or us 9. This us 8 is a bit tight, but can still squash in with socks ! Hopefully it will stretch.
