FALL AND WINTER

The new catalog/book finally arrived. There's a lot of interesting material inside.









These were used as research and inspiration for the new season. They're boots worn by the Sami people of Northern Norway. Made of Reindeer hide and filled with hay, they create natural heat-retaining and temperature-regulating insulation. A single pair can last a Sami person about 30 years even though they live in sub zero conditions. Visvim uses this knowledge and applies it to shoes and clothes that we can wear in urban environments.
