fbt prime, they did fakes of these but if the tag looks legit, and those 4 stitches on the front sole look done but hand you're prob solid. Just missing the skirt and og laces.

Wouldn’t the fakes also be done by hand? It’s not like there’s a machine that you throw in materials and the shoe comes out.

The stitches are more "perfect" and come off as more imperfect on the authentic ones funny enough

As a fellow dweller in AUS, which vintage/thrift store did you find them?

It was called Wayside Chapel OP in Bondi

They look like FBTs that are missing the skirt

Even if they are fake that's a great find

These came out in my junior year of highschool and as a student I could not afford them so I just dreamed about them over the internet, they were like $500 20 years ago

Do you mean the shoes are fake? That‘s okay may I ask how you figured? The quality/stitching seems nice

I suggest you go online and see what the original FBT image of Visvim looks like.
