Pretty surprised everthing seems to be quite expensive compared to previous collaborations.

There are some solid basics that aren't impressive by any means, but will sell like fire.

This would be a really good opportunity for resellers

Backpack is about the only half decent thing out of this

I don't know. How much of a hand did he have in this?

I'm sure some H&M "creatives" had some input, it is a collaboration after all. It could explain all that branding.

I wouldn't be surprised if Wang himself didn't contribute much other than a few nods towards some of his signature aesthetics.

All that aside, the collection is weak.
And I love that the beanie literally marks you as a dick head.

the idea of a high designer collaborating with more basic and cheaper brands is a great idea, but it's been executed so poorly
this, just as the plokhov x uniqlo collection, are just boring as fuck and only get attention because of the name attached to it, a stigma I think many designers usually rise above

Do you really want to cop a sweater that says Wang?

To the fashion crowd, you have branded yourself as low - tier trash that shops at HM

To normal people, you have a sweatshirt that says Wang lol

To fashion plebs, you are the gay guy that's into "fashion" because they know where you cop your clothes from. And by "fashion" I mean the primary pleb ' s perception of it

I think the branding placement is ok but I'd definitely go handle it in person before buying. If it's priced more than a jansport don't cop. Personally,I only buy backpacks from companies actually centred around making backpacks. It's an item I use everyday. I wouldn't even buy something like a visvim or undercover backpack because I don't think they'd match the price/quality ratio. Also fashion backpacks is a really lame concept as is.

If you like it, get it. I'm picking up the tee and gloves and I'll judge everything else by how it looks in person.

I really like the black leather backpack but I'm thinking $249 might be a bit much for an H&M collab.

What do you guys think? Is this a decent price? or are there any equivalent minimal black leather backpacks for cheaper?
