Where to get a set like this (wool / cashmere, no synthetic) ?

Where to get a set like this (wool / cashmere, no synthetic) ?

Came across a brand dropshipping these, but reviews are horrible (apparently they are not really like pictures and materials are not good at all. However, I really like the style and I'd like to find something in this style made with quality wool/merino/cashmere.

QC Koala batch: Loro Piana Summer Walk GL / RL

Received these Loro Piana Summer Walk loafers from Koala today. On inspection, the stitching appears clean and consistent, the last shape looks accurate, the suede texture seems solid, and the tongue stamp is correctly debossed as it should be. Nothing immediately raising red flags. Preliminary verdict is GL, though I'd welcome a second opinion.

Review: Mvt navy gats and a comparison

What’s up guys I just received my navy gats from mvt. I just want to start off by saying I love MVT and his products, there’s a reason I have three pairs. I’ve bought the black/brown gats and white gats from him. Am I the only one that thinks the quality is worse on the navy. The sole is different from the other two, the leather just isn’t as soft. Is this how it’s supposed to be? I know that the materials vary on authentic aswell so that’s why I ask. I’m wondering if anyone else is feeling the same way. In the pictures you’ll see that the leather on the black and white is crumbling already. The black ones have seen quite a bit of wear so it makes sense. But the navy leather is definitely more stiff. The soles on the navy are super smooth compared to the other two.

When I saw he’s been pumping out the colorways quickly I hoped that costs hadn’t been cut due to popularity but we’ll see. I want to be clear this is not a hate post more of a question. Please let me know as I don’t totally know what I’m talking about just comparing the different ones I have lol.

Do these sunglasses I found on Taobao have UV protection?

I asked the seller and he said it has UV protection and polarized lenses. Does anyone know of a seller who sells sunglasses?

QC – Zegna Slip-On Sneaker | AP Batch | Koala 🐨

Just got these in from Koala, decided to try the AP batch.

Honestly surprised how good they look, this is what i see compared to others:

* Shape is nice and slim

* Stitching looks clean to me

* Sole color seems good

* Hidden lace design looks on point

Not an expert on Zegna so I’d appreciate opinions from people who know retail better.

Anything off that you guys notice?

REVIEW some RL 1688 pickups(zipups and quarter zip)

what’s up guys! recently got a few items from one of my hauls, so today I’m bringing a review + some thoughts on these RL pieces I picked up.

first off, before buying from 1688 I almost went with repkingdom, but after digging a bit deeper I found some stores on 1688 selling the exact same batch for way cheaper, so that made the decision pretty easy.

prices + shipping: I’m based in Brazil and used an agent to ship these, went with CSSBuy and the package arrived in about 35 days after shipping.

rl zipup: 169 yuan each
rl colored pony quarter zip: 118 yuan each

zipups:

material + sizing: both have a tag saying 85% cotton / 15% polyamide. not sure if that’s 100% accurate, but the material feels really nice, soft and warm. imo better than the ones with like 34% polyester.

for sizing, I’d say TTS but with a more fitted look. I actually like how it sits, it works great with jeans or even sweatpants, kinda like a full tracksuit vibe.

tags + horse embroidery:
neck tag is decent, but compared to retail the font is still a bit thinner. most people won’t notice at all, but if you’re super picky you might catch it. personally I don’t see it as a big flaw since no one’s checking your neck tag irl anyway.

the horse embroidery looks good too, pretty standard for a solid RL rep.

final rating: 9/10 — fair price, good material, great fit and solid details. definitely worth it.

quarter zip:

material + sizing:
also TTS, I wear M and got M. but it fits a bit looser on the body, so if you prefer a tighter fit I’d size down. if you like it more relaxed, TTS is perfect.

material is really nice, 100% cotton and feels great. it’s lightweight with a relatively thin fabric, which is perfect for daily wear here in Brazil since it doesn’t get that cold.

tags + horse embroidery:
tags are standard, good quality but not perfect. same thing as the hoodie, not really a big deal since no one’s inspecting your tag irl.

the horse embroidery is well done, and honestly the best part for me is that it’s colored (main reason I picked this one lol).

final rating: 9/10 — solid pickup, would recommend if you want a good everyday quarter zip and don’t deal with super cold weather.

final thoughts: 1688 is full of opportunities. before buying from yupoo sellers, I highly recommend doing an image search over there. a lot of times you can find the exact same item for way cheaper.

ALL LINKS ARE IN THE COMMENTS — if you’ve got any questions feel free to ask, I’ll try to help however I can.

Mulebuy thinks bag is 17kg heavy, does not respond in Ticket.

https://preview.redd.it/kqbstkypnh2h1.png?width=217&format=png&auto=webp&s=ef63175b525cf0cded9617524ecffe6560257d47

So, i bought a laptop bag through Mulebuy, and it has been delivered at the agent, with me now wanting to arrange shipping.
How they weighted it, but for the shipping to me, it would cost 300 dollars, because somehow they declared the (small) laptop bag to weigh 17kg.

Support doesn't answer my requests and has left me hanging for two days in a row now with no new message.

What could i do? Do i just give up and pay the 300? I could have bought gen then lol
Has anyone encountered this before?
I checked out rehersal packaging, but i must select a shipping company, making the rehersal packaging cost 300 dollars aswell.

Thanks.

Zegna Triple Stitch (Black Leather) from Happy Whale – In-Hand Review

Hi,

I was scammed a bit from other supplier with my first white Zegna replicas (he gave me other batch claiming its AP) and therefore I tried direct order with HappyWhale. These are for sure much better in terms of feeling on my feet and definitely worth the money. No weird smell etc. and leather looks to be solid. I´m happy.

Seller: Happy Whale

Model: Zegna Triple Stitch (All Black)

Size Selected: EU 43 (Insole measured at exactly 28 cm)

Fit: True to Size (TTS)
Link: https://happywhale.x.yupoo.com/albums/226271554?uid=1&isSubCate=true&referrercate=834439

Ordering & Communication

Communication with Happy Whale was extremely smooth, straightforward, and professional. The seller responded quickly to all my questions. Shipping was fast and the package arrived without any delays.

Quality & Comfort

The quality of the tumbled leather is excellent. It feels soft yet durable, and the iconic triple-cross elastics have just the right amount of tension. I standardly wear size 43 (28 cm insole) and these fit absolutely perfectly right out of the box. They are incredibly comfortable on feet and look very sophisticated.

Final Verdict

If you are looking for a subtle, high-end quiet luxury sneaker, this batch from Happy Whale is a fantastic choice. Great build quality, fast logistics, and comfortable fit.
