/fa/ - Fashion

Funny for people to stop posting "fake purchase open box"

"They're just like the real thing!"

Post fakes and reps of items that are too rare/too expensive for poorbois

Reminder that there is literally nothing wrong with buying fakes as long as they're good and not a hyper-recognisable piece

FAQ
>w2c best supreme/bape hoodie/jacket?
Check aliexpress site for a store called unionhouse.
also alibaba has pretty good stuff

>Why do people buy fakes?
People can have many reasons. It could be the retail markup because of the designer is too high, the resell price too high,it's simply unavailable for sale or people just want to save money and buy clothes they like.

>Isn't the quality shit?
The quality can vary depending on the price you pay but it's still vastly cheaper than the retail price regardless. Generally do not bother with fakes for high priced items below $50 unless it's a rep of some cheap item like a hat or beanie. The picture of the UNHS SP (Super perfect) Supreme box logo hoodie is about $80 while the retail price is $148 reselling at $200 to $300. For shoes, there are unauthorized (UA) that are for the same factory, same materials but stolen from factory or were made "unauthorized" often with slight defects. A lot of replicas are very good quality but of course will not be a perfect 1:1 unless it's a truly simple item.

Feel free to ask any more questions.

get real. Obviously you've never handled any high end sneakers, let alone Rick footwear in person. the leather, attention to detail and quality is easily apparent. They're really nice shoes and age normally for really nice shoes. All cheap geos/dunks/cps/fashion shoes look like cheap knockoffs and age poorly. There's a pretty good chance they'll fall apart or dent/collapse due to shoddy materials and poor craftsmanship. you really do get what you pay for.
If you cop the knockoffs and treat them really well they might last for a while. But honestly they'll never be nearly as nice as the real deal. The whole point of spending a fuckton on nice shoes (and clothes in general) is that they've been thoroughly designed, observed, and crafted to last (or not last, if that is the desired effect). When you buy knockoffs you're paying for a similar-looking product without any of the benefits

You're only disappointing yourself by not having the real thing.
You'll never know the feeling of true Rick.

If tricky Ricky saw you in the streets wearing them, do you think he'd know they're fake?
