These are some new products from Visvim. As you can see one of their products for the winter is a hooded 3/4 coat. The detailing on the inside is amazing with emphasis on inside pocket placements and lining. Visvim also has a Windbreaker jacket called the Gore Windstopper. Judging from the name, these jackets are made of Gore-Tex material, which also comes in colors of black, olive, and beige. And last but not least, is some new footwear.
