Visvim Iris Liner Jacket

—01. Reversible.

Words

Visvim's fall collection is probably one of their best to date. Featuring a series of understated new styles alongside some of their most loved items, there's a lot to choose from. The Iris Liner Jacket is something I can't remember seeing from the brand before, but it's beautifully constructed and very functional, whether you use it as outerwear, layered under something else, or attached to another Visvim piece.

Visvim Nomad Jacket 2.5L

—01. Gore-Tex.

Words

While I greatly appreciate the care and attention put into every Visvim collection, there is often one piece that jumps out more than all the others, seeming like it would slide right into a vacant space in my closet. This season that would have to the be the Nomad Jacket. The brand's staple parka looks particularly good in this vivid red colour, and the Gore-Tex shell, button-up storm flap, and drawstring hood with a fold-out brim would make it very useful in the coming months when sunshine turns to rain.

With autumn on its way, Visvim released campaigns for their FW14 men's and women's collections this week. While the offering is a bit more colourful than we've seen in the past, taking inspiration from old native tribes and motorcycle culture, Hiroki Nakamura continues to push his vision for the brand forwards through fabrication and technology.
