[Review] Cozy Fall Rotation | Dior, LOEWE, LV, Celine & Miu Miu

Been slowly replacing some older hoodies and sweatshirts with heavier pieces that are easier to layer once the weather cools down. Overall pretty happy with how everything turned out.

Stats: 178cm / 75kg

Shipping: ~6.8kg to the US, 2days for QC, arrived in 11 days. Everything was packed well with no damage.

Dior Zip Hoodie (L)

Probably the cleanest piece from the haul. The hoodie has a nice heavyweight feel without being overly stiff, and the double zipper runs smoothly. The tonal Dior embroidery near the pocket keeps it understated while the Oblique lining inside the hood adds just enough detail. Fits relaxed but not oversized.

Dior Knit Sweater (L)

Really like the pale blue color in hand. Knit has decent weight without feeling bulky, making it easy to wear indoors. Small embroidered chest logo keeps it simple, while the striped cuffs and hem give it a bit of character.

LOEWE Floral Logo Crewneck (M)

The embroidery is what sold me on this one. The floral texture gives the logo a lot more depth than a regular print. Blank feels dense and soft, ribbing is firm, and the collar sits nicely after wearing it for a while.

Miu Miu Fleece Half-Zip (L)

Didn’t expect to wear this as much as I have. Super soft fleece with a relaxed cropped fit, and the half-zip makes it easy to throw on. Drawcord hem is useful if you want a slightly boxier silhouette.

My only complaint is that fleece picks up lint fairly easily.

LV Embroidered Sweatshirt (L)

One of the more interesting pieces. The embroidered lettering has a knitted effect that looks much better in person than in photos. Fabric is thick, cuffs are snug, and the embroidered logo on the back neck is a nice extra detail.

Celine Ribbed Zip Knit (L)

Definitely the heaviest item here. Thick ribbed knit with a structured fit and smooth zipper. The small Triomphe logo keeps it understated, and the high collar works well layered under jackets.

Not the warmest knit I’ve owned, but it feels very well made.

Everything is from RepLux, W2C in comments.

[Review] Mixed Summer Essentials Pickup | UNDFTD, Monc, CG, CH, MM, Stussy & AF1

Kept this one pretty mixed. Mostly easy-to-wear summer pieces with a couple of statement tees and one pair of AF1s. Everything arrived in good condition

Stats: 178cm / 75kg

UNDFTD Tanktop (L)

Simple gym/summer piece. Cotton has a decent weight without feeling thick and the armholes aren’t oversized, so it doesn’t end up looking sloppy. The back print is clean with no noticeable cracking or uneven edges.

Monc Ripstop Overshirt (L)

Lightweight ripstop fabric with a subtle technical feel, making it good for warmer weather instead of being another heavy overshirt. The pocket construction is neat and the mesh detail gives it a bit more character. Wrinkles easily out of the package but that’s expected with this type of material.

CG Polo (L)

Fabric has the typical pique texture, collar sits flat, and the badge looks well centered. Fit is pretty much what I expected and works well with shorts or chinos.

CH Crystal Cross Tee (M)

Definitely the loudest item in the haul. The rhinestones are attached surprisingly well and line up cleanly around the cross graphic. Shirt itself feels soft with a slightly oversized fit. Time will tell how the stones hold up after repeated washes, but first impression is solid.

CH Tonal Cross Tee (M)

Completely different vibe from the crystal version. Everything is black-on-black with embroidered crosses across the back, so it stays subtle until you’re up close. Nice heavyweight cotton and the embroidery adds texture without making the shirt stiff.

Stussy Tee (L)

Print is screen print but the quality looks sharp and the graphic has good contrast against the white fabric. Cotton feels comfortable & soft.

MM6 Shorts (44)

These surprised me the most. The pleats give them a cleaner silhouette than regular shorts and they drape well instead of flaring out. Fabric feels smooth and midweight, fit is a bit strange but in a good way

AF1 Paisley (44)

TTS, Probably my favorite pickup overall. The embossed paisley pattern is much more noticeable in hand than in photos and gives the shoe some depth without being over the top. Shape looks good, stitching is consistent, and they’re comfortable straight out of the box. Easy pair if you want something different from standard triple whites.

[Review] A Few Summer Streetwear Pickups | Martine Rose, Protocol, Grailz & More

Been wearing these over the past week, so figured I’d share a few thoughts. I wasn’t looking for anything in particular this time—just picked up a mix of jerseys, tees and shorts that seemed easy to wear during the warmer months.

Stats: 178cm / 75kg

Martine Rose Jersey (M)

This ended up being my favorite piece. The fabric feels smooth and breathable, more like an actual football jersey than a typical costume-style one. The woven pattern across the body is subtle but noticeable in person, and the embroidery is neat. The fit is relaxed without being overly baggy.

Martine Rose Tee (M)

Pretty straightforward everyday tee. The blank has a soft feel with a slightly oversized cut. Front print is clean and centered. Sleeves run a touch longer than I usually wear, but it works well with wider shorts.

Protocol Tee (M)

Nice heavyweight blank while still being comfortable enough for summer. The distressed details look intentional rather than randomly cut, and the vintage-style print came out well. Collar feels slightly snug at first but wasn’t an issue after wearing it for a while.

Praying Tee (M)

Mostly grabbed it because I thought the slogan is funny Lol, and describe my mood perfectly. The print is sharp with good coverage, and the blank has a relaxed fit.

Saint Cortis Tee (M)

The faded graphic looks better in person than I expected. Cotton feels decent, and the oversized fit is comfortable. I probably would’ve preferred the neckline to be a little tighter, but overall I’m happy with it.

Grailz Boxing Shorts (L)

Very lightweight and breathable. The mesh lining is comfortable, waistband has plenty of stretch, and the double-layer construction helps them keep their shape.

Grailz Sweat Shorts (L)

Probably my favorite shorts from the haul. The panel construction lines up well, pockets sit flat, and the French terry fabric has enough weight without feeling too warm.

1970s Low (44)

Fits true to size. Stitching is consistent, the overall shape looks clean, and there weren’t any noticeable glue marks on my pair. They’ve been comfortable after a few wears.

Happy to answer questions if anyone wants more close-up photos or sizing info.

[Review] Latest Summer Streetwear Pickups Review | Martine Rose, Praying & More (with fit pic & close-ups)

Been picking up a mix of graphic tees, sportswear and shorts lately. Nothing too crazy—mostly pieces that are easy to wear through summer. Everything arrived without noticeable flaws and the overall quality surprised me for the price.

Stats: 178cm / 75kg atm

Martine Rose Jersey (M)

Probably the standout from this haul. The fabric feels like a proper football shirt instead of cheap polyester, lightweight with a smooth finish. The subtle plaid pattern woven into the body gives it more depth than a standard jersey. Embroidery is clean, sponsor print is evenly applied, and the V-neck sits nicely. Definitely one of those pieces that looks better in hand.

Martine Rose Tee (M)

Simple everyday tee. The colorful front logo is printed cleanly with sharp edges and solid color saturation. Blank is smooth, slightly oversized and drapes well. Easy piece to throw on with shorts or cargos.

Protocol Tee (M)

Really happy with this one. The blank has a slightly heavyweight feel while staying soft enough for summer. The distressed holes are factory-finished instead of randomly cut, front & back print has that faded vintage look without looking washed out. Neckline is sturdy and doesn’t feel flimsy.

Praying No Money Slogan Tee M

Bought it mostly because the slogan was funny, and describe my mood perfectly. Print placement is centered and the white ink coverage is surprisingly solid on the black fabric. The blank is soft & heavy with a relaxed fit

Saint Cortis Tee (M)

Vintage-style graphic came out better than expected. Print has a lightly faded finish instead of looking overly bright, which matches the aesthetic. Cotton feels decent with a comfortable oversized cut.

Grailz Boxing Shorts (L)

Very lightweight and breathable. Double-layer construction gives them a nicer shape without feeling bulky. Elastic waistband has plenty of stretch, stitching is neat, and the mesh lining doesn’t feel scratchy.

Grailz Sweat Shorts (L)

The panel construction is executed surprisingly well, with clean alignment throughout the split-color design. French terry fabric has a substantial feel without being overly heavy, making it comfortable even in warmer weather. Prints are sharp, pockets sit neatly without flaring out, and the overall craftsmanship feels far more refined than expected for the price.

1970s Low 44

TTS, The stitching is consistent throughout, eyelets are cleanly installed, and the foxing tape has a smooth finish without obvious glue marks, looks really close to retail imo
