Exactly one week ago, I received this pair of Cloudmonster Hyper in the RS batch

Price and Sizing

I paid 180 CNY for this pair and I went tts.

First Impressions

first of all, I wanted to talk about the main reason I chose the RS batch for this model. I've already tried a few Ultraboost models from this batch before, and I was really happy with their quality and overall performance.

I'm not really a runner and I don't have that much experience with running shoes from China, so I'll be giving you my perspective as someone who runs around 5 km a day on average and also uses these for everyday activities, like taking my dog for walks.

Construction

Overall, I think the construction is really good. The entire upper is made of fabric, with the lettering on the sides using a slightly rougher material.

The biggest difference I noticed compared to retail is the logo. On the retail pair, it seems to have a slightly less glossy finish.

As for the CloudTec cushioning, I think it's really good. It's a little firmer than the cushioning on my M batch Cloudtilts, but there's honestly not a huge difference.

Comfort and Performance

The shoe is quite tall and relatively soft. During the shorter runs I've done with it, it performed really well. It felt stable, the outsole had good traction, and the shoe stayed comfortable on my feet throughout.

I've used it both on asphalt and on gym treadmills. I also happened to get caught in the rain for three days, and even with wet asphalt, I didn't have any issues with the grip.

Another thing I really want to highlight is how lightweight these shoes are. I only got into these more performance oriented models recently, and as someone who's used to wearing Jordans, putting on a pair like this is honestly pretty funny lol. It feels like I'm wearing nothing because they're so light.

Overall

Overall, I'm really happy with the RS batch. It looks really good on feet, the materials are nice, and it's extremely comfortable, making it a great option for physical activities.

I'll keep testing this model over the next few weeks, and if I notice anything worth mentioning, I'll make an update post here.

What’s up guys! Today I received two CH items that I bought at the end of August, and I’m going to share my feedback with you guys.

I’ll leave the W2C in the comments.

CH T-Bar Green Hoodie from 718

CH Vintage Longsleeve from RepHearts

Stats: 175cm tall, 70kg.

Hoodie:

I really liked the quality of this one. The fabric is very soft and has a nice weight to it. The graphics are embossed, which, from what I’ve seen, is also how they look on retail, and the print definition is great.

I went with size S and it fits me perfectly, with the hoodie ending just slightly below my waistline. Overall, this is already one of my favorite hoodies so far. Compared to retail, the tags also seem to be pretty accurate.

10/10

CH Longsleeve:

I went with size M for this one. It fits me well, ending slightly below my waist and being a little loose around the arms, which is how I like my longsleeves to fit. Around the torso, it’s a little more fitted, which I also prefer.

The graphics look good and the tags are pretty accurate as well. The fabric is also good quality and relatively thick for a long-sleeve shirt.

The only major flaw I noticed is the distressing. Under certain lighting, it can look a little too artificial. Other than that, I think it was a great purchase.

8/10

Overall, I’m really happy with both pieces, especially the hoodie. It’s easily my favorite CH piece in my wardrobe so far.

This is my third time having a pair of Reverse Mochas, and today I am going to share my thoughts with you guys. Before getting the PK 4.0, I had a few in the FK and regular PK batches, and both held up really well while I wore them. Since this is my absolute favorite AJ1 x TS colorway, I end up having to rotate through pairs pretty often because they wear down fast with regular use. This time, I decided to give PK 4.0 a shot.

When it comes to materials and build quality, I found both to be super solid. The materials are great, the suede feels lively and well made, and the leather on the upper has a nice texture that feels like it will last a while. One thing I did notice with this batch is that the outsole feels a bit softer compared to the regular PK and FK pairs I used to have. You do not really feel a difference on foot, but holding it in hand, it is definitely noticeable. From what I looked up, that is pretty normal for PK 4.0.

I picked this version because so many people were praising the reverse swoosh, which honestly looks great to me. Also, a few people told me that the toebox on these AJ1s is slightly elongated to add some weight and look closer to retail. Is that actually true?

As for comfort, it is your standard AJ1 feel. Nothing crazy comfortable, but totally fine for everyday wear. I personally like to throw in an orthopedic insole I bought on Taobao a few years back, which still helps a ton when wearing shoes that are less ergonomic.

Overall, I am super happy with this pickup. I really liked the PK 4.0 batch for the Reverse Mocha, and once this pair gets beat up, I am planning to test out other versions like LJR. I also have the Pink Pack on the way, so hopefully they show up soon. As soon as they land, I will bring you guys another review!

Today I received these two pieces from BLCG, and I was really excited to finally see them in hand, so I wanted to share my first impressions with you guys.

About the pants: they're really heavy and very wide. The fit is exactly what I was looking for, very baggy but still with enough structure when worn.

The pants use buttons for the closure and have distressed details in several areas. When I first bought them, I was a little worried about the distressing on the back because I was afraid it would leave my ass exposed hahaha. Luckily, the pocket lining covers exactly the distressed area, so nothing is exposed and the pants are actually very comfortable to wear.

I bought them from seller 718 and went with size S. I usually wear pants with a 41 to 42 cm waist, and these fit me perfectly with no extra room or tightness. They've already become one of my favorite pairs of pants hahaha. The fit is great and the overall quality is really good.

About the 3XL: I went with the XA batch. Some people say Cola's version is better, and considering the price difference, I believe that might actually be the case. I'm far from being an expert on this model, but I'm really happy with the quality of the XA 3XL.

I usually wear EU43 and decided to size down to EU42, which fits me perfectly. From the little I've worn them so far, I find them relatively comfortable, and I think they'll get a lot of use in my rotation since they look really good with wide-leg pants.

I also really like the materials. They feel solid and well made, and I think the shoes should have good durability. Where I live, I don't think I'll get called out either, since very few people are familiar with this model.

Next week, I'm planning to visit one of the brand's boutiques and see if I can find a retail 3XL to compare it with.

Last Friday, I received these two belts that I was really looking forward to getting in hand, so today I wanted to share my thoughts on them.

My stats: I'm 70 kg and usually wear M/32 pants, with a waist measurement of around 41 42 cm.

Size: I bought both belts in EU 95 cm, and they fit me perfectly. I don't have any extra holes left over, and they're not too tight either.

First, I want to talk about the packaging. Both belts came with the brand's shopping bags, dust bags, boxes, and protections for the buckles.

Both buckles are pretty heavy and feel very well made. I didn't notice any rough edges or poorly finished parts. The CD buckle in particular feels very solid and dense, which gives it a really durable feel.

As for the belts themselves, both are made from genuine leather. The LV one has a smoother finish, with a navy blue outer side and a black inner side. The inside also has the respective size, production and model markings.

The CD belt is made from black grained leather, with the same texture on both sides. The inside has the size, model and reference markings.

Overall, the quality of both belts is GREAT. From the presentation to the construction, they both exceeded my expectations. I'm really happy with these purchases, and I definitely plan on picking up another color of the CD belt soon to add to my rotation.

W2C: I bought both of them from the seller LBT. I'll leave the link in the comments.

One question for anyone who owns a pair of 3XLs: do you use sole protectors on yours? I was thinking about using them to prevent the laces from getting damaged over time, since I know I'll constantly be stepping on them while wearing the shoes.
