Hello fellow LARPers, I copped this kinda as a "why not" moment and im gonna be so real im actually in love with them. I thought it would be kinda funny but i unironically fw these heavy now.

Quick points

  • Stats - 6ft - 182LB
  • Seller - Pudding
  • Taobao link - LINK Here
  • Price - ¥258

Quality - 10/10

These genuinely feel amazing. I have bought so many rep denim jeans, from DS2 to Blanks and they are all okay but kind of cheap - these feel heavy set as a mf.

Accuracy - pretty good

They are an older season, so im not certain, but reference pics show the monogram has lined up correctly, there are no half cut logos, the stitching matches, as does the hardware. The the price these seem much better than any alixpress batch, thats for sure.

Fit - tall and loose

I just went for my waist size, they are a loose/baggy for sure for me. Maybe i messed up size wise, but i like this fit a lot and it's been a while since i've had something fit as good.

Closing thougts - happy i went through with it

What started as a 'what if' is now a 'for sure' for me. I genuinely can't wait to put some real fits together with these and LARP like never before.

📦📸5 piece combo haul from Martin (NK, STUSSY, FOG) 📦📸

Quick run down of my Haul from Martin, bit of a mix of stuff. Shipped to UK, 7 days. Sizes and brief thoughts below on each. Let me know if you need any pictures or stats!

Fear of god ¥320 - Size L

The main start of the show, I love this. I didn't realise how oversized FOG is until my friend explained. This feels super thick and is part of their newer 90s retro line. Print feels good on the heavy ass hoodie, and honestly im gonna try buy more.

Stussy ¥159 - Size L

A bit oversized (my fault) but print is good and the dice on the back i fw heavy for summer. I'd cop, decent blank quality. Can't go wrong with stussy

Nike top ¥159 - Size L

Bit of a more retro vibe, just another light summer pick up. Not much to say! Light weight but not see through.

We11Done - ¥110 - Size L

I think this is fantasy and i'll be so real its huge, my fault entirely, that being said it does feel mad thick and heavy, and the logo printing is clean.

BAPE ¥138 - Size L

My first bape item, went with black because the other stuff is light and white. Decent blank, has print on the back and front that feels pretty decent. Also has the arm stitch tag which was a nice touch. Looking forward to be in my bape era.

And that's it. I'm always posting and trying new formats, so let me know if the smaller one works for you. Happy to take requests and dm's. Will post links to items in a sepere comment to play nice with the filter. Happy repping 👋

👟🍃ASIC Gel-NYC 'Cloud' review - ft my work office 🍃👟

Hell fellow sneakerdawgs, Coming at you with this last minute review for the day of these ASIC GEL-NYC's in green.

W2C: Old Chen // Wood Table Guy

Model: ASIC Gel-NYC 'Cloud'

Not everything is a win! And sadly, these came up a tiny bit short for me. That being said, this is solely because i should have sized up.

There were really soft around the heels because of the cushion/padding, and general build quality was pretty good. They deal feel a bit light, but i can't comment on if that's accurate or not as these are my only ASICS.

I am a UK Size 10, so got that. Sadly, I should have sized up, my toes were at the end of the shoe as soon as i got them on. For a quick initial walk and test for comfort, they were okay, but after some prolonged journeys to the store - absolutely no way.

That being said, your mileage may vary, and if the sizing works out for you, (atleast .5 up) these would likely of become my daily.

Some other points that i will bullet point out:

  • Packaging was A1. No crumple or dents and the box fit them snug
  • Didn't stink of glue or weird fumes like other asic reviews
  • Quite an accurate rep i think? No glaring flaws

So, overall - would i recommend? For the price, I'd say yes, but only if you can confirm and get your size. I went direct with Old Chen on these so it's my fault entirely. An agent can measure up insoles and such for you. If you are looking for professional grade or shoes for orthopediac reason, i would probably go for something a bit more specific or, even retail.

Thats all, team 👋

📦💼LV Keepall 45 from Ella - Insane quality imo💼📦

Hello my DesignerReps twins, im coming at you with something that for once this sub never gets bored of - an LV keepall.

Got this one posted ASAP because the quality on this is great, and i pray the approval gods don't keep me in limbo until next summer.

Anyway, I've had budget keepalls and this feels a whole world different, from the fit and finish to the accessories. I will try to keep the pro's and cons. There are lots of competition, but i think this matches, if not supersedes, Birdcage / Old Cobbler / Other high end batches

Please do hit me up if you want any specific pics, happy to share this item. Also, yes, i know the wardrobe makes me look like a seller, it's an IKEA PAX one with the tray for anyone curious ;)

Timeline

Order placed ~ 7 days, QC sent, approved, ~ Shipped to UK in 8 days

Positives

  • Really good house shape, one of the main flaws of rep keepalls
  • Great general shape, doesn't fold up like a wet blanket when you put it down
  • Hardware correct, loops in the right location, inner pocket is accurate
  • Weight correct
  • Canvas print is accurate, no weird cuts or misplaced logos
  • Does not stink of glue and factory fumes
  • Came with dustbag and documents, if you care about that
  • No squeaking or wrinkled canvas / leather (cheaper ones suffer form that)

Cons

I really can't think of any, but if i have to be super pedantic

  • The strap and extra accessories were a little stiff, but have since become a bit more easy to play with and so far haven't left any marks
  • The lock had some sort of oil on it, but it didn't leave any marks or stains and has evaporated

💳 No such thing as too many Goyard Card holders (¥49) 💳

I wouldn't be a true fashionreps member if i didn't post a goyard card holder atleast once in my life, so here we are. No thrills, budget friendly pick up for the fam - ¥49!!

W2C: Weidian Link

Price: ¥49

Colors: a bunch to choose from

  • Came wrapped in plastic and even had a box, i've seen some that just straight up get thrown into a bag.
  • The dust cloth is pretty basic, idk what you'd expect.
  • Came with a store card which is a nice touch, i keep it in the card holder to keep it rigid.
  • Did i mention its 49 rmb??

It feels quite nice, soft is maybe not the right word, but i've had some realllly cheap card holders that feel like they're made out of cardboard and plastic. This one not so much, holds my cards and has an interior pouch. Didn't spot any heat stamped codes.

👟 My first pair of Dunks review (M Batch) 👟

Hello hello, it's that time again. As I buy more and more, its about time i write another review.

Keeping this one short and sweet - we've all seen a pair of dunks before!

Quality

Comparing to my friends retail, these feel really good & overall have no glaring flaws and on-foot feel comfortable. The laces have this odd feel to normal shoes but comparing with retail its normal, its like an elastically feel? I guess its a dunk thing. These are M batch which as i've learnt is one of the better ones.

Feel

These are actually really comfortable, i wish someone put me onto them earlier. My AF1s feel so clunkly in comparison. These will be my new daily pretty soon. Walking around i can feel the softness / sole nicely.

Seller / Communication

Went with James and went direct, took about a week and he was very good at ansering questions I had. They were shipped no box so were a little bent up on arrival, but, took a normal form really quickly with no issue.

Last thoughts

Dunks are a little bit played out and the reps are really good now imo. The hype days of these have passed so normal people can wear them like me. If you're looking for a pair, then these are great for the price.

[QC] LV Keepall 45 Duffle from Ella

Hey all , just sharing a quick QC of this LV Keepall I'm picking up from Ella. I've been after one for a while and this is my first 'high end' batch.

Ella // +8613512225283 // szwego albums page

There are some translation issues as i spoke to her directly around the batch, so i'd like to get some second opinions. Bag does look good, and her price range for the majority of her items are like $300 minimum.

u/RepsUpMoneyDown — 13 days ago

Hey all. I have posted this over in my usual subs, and someone said this is likely a good place to share it. Its all RL, so i figured it would fit in here!

This is a quick, fairly detailed review of my recent 4 piece haul from Victoria. It's all for the office and casual wear. Any questions just hit me up.

Lets get into it // Link to the album - RL Yupoo Album

1/4 zip - smooth grey

This one i think(?) may be fantasy. Fits great, material is tight. I odnt know how to explain it but when i wear it it feels lowkey like a scuba / athletic wear. Came with major loose threads on the collar and shoulder, quick snip fix but would be nice if it didn't

Long sleeve

No loose threads this time, Good logo, A little baggy but overall the material feels quite premium for a shirt, not see through like some. I imagine i will ruin it with pit stains this summer lmao.

Short sleeve

Great fit, will be perfect for summer, not as thin as it looks in the pics, came with Two spare buttons on the bottom of it, but the horse has this odd square around it that i hope will wash out / fade out

Dark grey 1/4 zip

This feels unreal. Feels super thick and the zip / collar feels good, not that really overly floppy one. I usually wear these unzipped a few inches folded over. Not too baggy on me whatsoever, This colour wool looks like it may pick up fluff really easy so im not keen on that but, dark grey is practical.

Seller / ending thoughts

That's it! I don't always write up a review of the seller themselves, but i had to ask Victoria-Reps a few question about sizing/items and they were super friendly. Some sellers charge less but have much much worse customer service, i'd say this is a good budget, balanced seller.

u/RepsUpMoneyDown — 15 days ago

I don't often post to couture reps, but i see a bunch of RL flying around on this sub, mostly being shilled and shifted from weird Weidian sellers. I've posted this elsewhere, but though it best to share some authentic stuff here for once.

Hey all! This is my first post in RL reps, so I hope you like it & let me know if you'd like to know anything / want specific pics.

Whats up fashion dawgs

Just a quick run down of this LV pochette i picked up recently, I used to own a damier one but bought a load of monogram stuff recently, only right to match.

Material / construction - as you can guess, it's canvas, hence the flipped print on one side. It's not bad feeling, for the price there are more plastic shitty ones, but this feels pretty good. Mine came sadly with a dent in the corner, but this can get massaged out easy. Zip is pretty smooth, i *think* the newest ones have a thicker, different zip end.

Overall, it will serve its purpose. I've seen batches for much more, i personally wouldn't like to spend any more than i did. Any questions feel free to hit me up. RepsUpMoneydown out.

Hello team, it's that time again - another review. This time a little different. I am increasing my contribution, and in turn, trying to minimise the amount i write, please let me know how you find this format.

  • Shoe - On Cloudtilt moon
  • Size - UK 10 / EU 40
  • Price - 190 RMB
  • Link to purchase - Weidian

Fit - Sock like fit, these are tight, given the design. I bought them for a new work commuting shoe - they fit a tiny bit big, but are fine. The speed lace system is unusual, and can be kinda tight around the tounge. Heel to toe drop of about 7mm.

Bounce/Comfort - These feel *super* good. A real spring in my step and i'd even be comfortable to run in them, but i don't need to. Mostly just to walk on lunched, covering about 6 miles a day minimum.

Overall comments

For the price, these are a great batch (non professional runner opinion) , i've had problems in the past with this style of shoe squeaking but no issues here. I would advice having a flick through the models though, this chunky/sock like design will probably be uncomfortable for skinny feet types, and if you prefer a traditional lace this speed lace system isn't it.

Just dropping a quick few in-hand pics and a brief rundown of these Hermes bouncing i got from XL. Not really my typical style, but thought it's a good mix between what i can wear at the office and commute in. As usual, this isn't credited or paid, I just have a consumerism addiction.

Packaging - Great

10/10 as far as im concerned. Came with dustbags for the shoes, laces, a store card, all the trimmings and the ribbon too (which i vacuumed up by mistake), I don't *really* care but its a nice thing to have regardless.

Shoe quality - Good Quality but a tiny bit big (My fault)

Im a natural 9.5, but sadly could only get these in a 10. They are a little spacious and a bit unusual at first, but im breaking them in. The materials and general weight feel pretty good to me. The suede part will likely be a pain to keep good but it is what it is. I asked for batch and they said AP, from a rough look that seems to be pretty good among other subs.

Seller / communication - 10/10

I spoke to them on wechat, which is never too ideal, but xxl998 is pretty to the point. Has a decent selection, answered what i asked, and shipped direct. Not really much more you can ask for, right?

Here are their contact details, afaik they mostly sell this type of stuff or designer sneakers, so if thats your thing then you're good to go.

Any questions just hit me up, happy to answer. This isn't paid promo, I actually have and wear these things now lmao. Until next time ✌️

Hey all, trying to keep it brief with my reviews. Copped these from our boy old chen, soon to posting some other stuff too!

Seller - Old chen - +852 64402519 for direct

Link to album: Yupoo

Packaging / Box - 10/10

came with the box, dustbag, store cards, laces, and the nice dior foil-stamped paper. Not that it matters but its a nice touch.

Fit 9.5/10

I sized up for these .5 and they fit good, i think my main thing was my socks were thin as hell so i could feel the end, but they felt good on my foot shape and general length.

Accuracy 8/10

These aren't the worlds best batch, but for the price they're hard to be beaten. The DIOR print on the side is alright, the DIOR engraving by the toe box could be a little sharper imo. The tongue tag could likely be better but, its such a minute feature i don't care.

Overall

I'm happy with them. They look great in the sun, feel solid. I could have sprung a few more bucks but average improvements are double the cost for quite small changes. Overall i'd recommend for sure.
