Visvim FBT Ancestor
The shoe thats united hipsters, heads and those straying beyond the Wallaby in their quest for comfortable casual footwear, the FBT in its various incarnations, whether UNDFTD, Shaker or Shaman, the FBT seemed to ground itself as the key Visvim product before disappearing for a short while. But it was an absence shorter than Too Short’s retirement and this variation is a little regressive. Deconstructing the sturdier original to a shoe that seems a little more ‘loose leaf’ than the standard build, the Ancestor takes it further back to milk the Native American theme, making it more lightweight, with the ever-eccentric ankle flap in effect, this time non-removable and integrated into the upper, but cut shorter, so if your that way inclined, you can wear it up. As per-usual, the breathable pigskin lining is in effect and the suede is high-quality. Four colours are on offer and again, the Visvim crew are batting off the imitators vying haplessly for a bite of the sneaker/shoe hybrid pie.
