visvimのフラッグシップストア『F.I.L.』。その海外初出店であった香港に、早くも２店舗目がオープンする。香港特有の雑居ビルに囲まれた2フロア構成のWAN CHAI店。既存店舗と同様に自然光と素材質感、植物にこだわり、ラボラトリーを思わせる白を基調とした心地良い店内で、商品のベーシックなフォルムと緻密な素材の延長線上に見える空間を体感できる設計となっている。

オープンに伴い、オーストリッチをアッパーに採用したデッキシューズHOCKNEY-FOLK、ヴィンテージのビーズをオリジナルのギザコットン地のボディーにあしらったHENLEYT-シャツもリリースされる。オープニングでは、その他SS11のラインナップに加え、今期のF.I.L.EXCLUSIVEアイテムも発売予定。

The first overseas location of visvim's flagship store F.I.L. was in Hong Kong, where now a second location is set to open.
The Wan Chai location is set in a 2-floor space housed inside a traditional Hong Kong style multi-tenant building.

Similar to other F.I.L. locations the Wan Chai shop will feature an abundance of natural light with a special focus on a variation of textures in the material used for the shop build out. Reminiscent of a laboratory, the emphasis on keeping the space white is intentional and representative as an extension of the product and its simple yet sophisticated form. The shop has been designed to allow one to experience the product inside a comfortable space.

For the opening, several exclusive items will be released including a traditional Deck shoe, the HOCKNEY-FOLK of which the upper is a premium ostrich. Also a Henley neck shirt set for release, done in Premium Egyptian Giza Cotton is decorated with authentic vintage beads. Additionally the shop will stock other styles from the SS'11 collection along with other F.I.L. Exclusive items lined up for the opening.
