Japanese men's apparel brand Visvim created a hybrid version of moccasin shoes a while back that garnered its innovative style popularity. In order to update and revitalize the model's design, Visvim released a new low-cut variation of the 'MALISEET SHAMAN-FOLK' as well as a few different color options.
The moccasin shoes are made with a handmade suede upper that marks its unique style and leather laces that complement it. Fringes, light embroidery and harsh stitching decorate the designs as well, adding to its earthy look.
The rubber soles of the shoes contrasts this with a white and gray color palette, giving the style a modern edge. With this, the shoes offer a functionality that is often missing from typical moccasin shoes, allowing its wearer to sport them on city streets with ease.
