Words

It seems like the world of online magazines has expanded and grown well beyond what I ever imagined it would be like. However, I might argue that the best have all come from Canada, and 01 magazine follows suit. Their latest issue is filled with interviews, editorials and photo stories. Besides the interview with Visvim's Hiroki Nakamura, they also spoke to Chris Allen, who is largely responsible for the look and feel of Inventory magazine. The new online issue also has some great photography by Jennilee Marigomen, especially the shots from 'Kim's Closet'.

Visvim x Colette Folk Hockney's

Visvim is one of the best footwear makers in the world. Colette is one of the best shops in the world. Put them together and what do you get? Not the best shoe in the world, but a damn good one. The folk series has been my favourite collection of Visvim products so far. From the materials to the tweaked soles and colours, I haven't seen a model I didn't like. It just so happens that the Hockney is also one of my favourite models by Mr Nakamura as well. This colourway is so classic for a boat shoe and one that I've always wanted, what an awesome shoe. Visvim doing another collaborative effort (UNDFTD) looks to be a good thing for us North America dwellers.
