[Review] Five items from my First Haul - Versace, Maison Kitsune, Tom Ford, Burberry, Amiri

REVIEW

Sup fam just got my first haul, pretty happy rn ngl.

Here are five items in the haul. I dont really care about 1:1, as long as someone who recognizes the piece cant immediately tell its a fake, im cool. When im referring to things being "good", Im commenting on build and material quality, not 1:1ness. keep that in mind when reading.

Haul was 4.7Kg with some boxes and was ~400$ CDN shipped to Canada, got here in about 12 days. Passed through Mississauga customs in 9 minutes lol.

--- Versace (?) Circus Leopard Shirt - 138￥

I thought this was a real piece from versace, but now Im pretty sure that its a fantasy piece. The Leopard design itself is definitely from a real shirt though. The material is ok, pretty comfortable but not silk or anything. Print is quite clear and high quality, though the baroque prints around the collar and one sleeve are just a little less so. its also unbranded. for the price, quite good. obvsly a very loud piece, so only cop if you think you can pull it off lol

Note: this seller has quite a few shirts and most of them appear to be real pieces. Def worth a look.

--- Maison Kitsune Lovebirds Tee - 115￥

Fell in love with this design immediately when I saw it. This one is honestly really good for the price. The blank feels really good, quite soft and a little thicker than i expected honestly. The branding and embroidery are also very very high quality. I just wish the sizing went a little smaller, but I tend to like clothes quite a bit more tight than you guys.

--- Tom Ford T-Buckle Belt - 240￥

Feels like a very quality faux-leather. The buckle is also actually metal. Got this from a Superbuy warehouse deal so only paid like 75￥ because this one was missing a stamp (which I honestly dont care about). This seller does normally include stamping though, but obvsly cant comment on it. Really loving it, it just feels expensive lol

W2C: Cant find the original seller, Ill update this post if I do, very sorry

--- Classic Burberry Scarf - 250￥

Im a 1:1 slut for scarves. Almost bought retail, but decided to try a rep. So very satisfied. It looks more or less 1:1 to me, and to my surprise, it even came with great reps of the box and shopping bag. This thing is so soft. As far as I can tell this is 100% cashmere, and feels pretty much as soft as retail. Basically, Im in love. Thoroughly recommended. This seller has most of the popular colorways.

--- Amiri Bandanna Boots - 500￥

Really love it, feels very high quality. Sole is unfortunately rubber but at least it appears to be high quality. The shape also looks quite close to retail. But its not 1:1. bandanna pattern is different, though this isnt apparent outside of close inspection. Also, its unbranded. Adds a good inch and a quarter to my height so now I know what its like to be able to look down when talking to girls, 1:1 short boi

And thats all boyos. Also bought some of those 38￥ Goyard cardholders and a non-designer bag, which explains the haul stats lol.

Anyway thank you boyos for helping me get my first haul. Im going on a trip in a few days and needless to say Im excited to try everything. Over and out

how do the boots feel on feet? are they comfy/stable?

2
AXhunterOP•

They've got some pretty nicely cushioned insoles, and they're also surprisingly warm in winter. Not no idea how those insoles compare to retail tho...

They're a little slippery on snow, but retail might be like that too. On dry ground they are fine.

My only issue with the fit is that the midsection of the boot is a bit tight. That might be fixed once they are broken in though.

The Versace t-shirt is a retail piece.

AXhunterOP•

Do you have a link?

I have seen it in Westfield London nearly 6 months ago. I wanted to purchase the rep but all the sizing was very big. Do you have the size chart?

2
AXhunterOP•

I don't, unfortunately. It is obviously a larger fit, so I figured I would be safe with a small. I couldn't find it on any website though.

Man I really want to get the boots but I'm afraid of the soles. I recently purchase the Common project chelsea boots and the rubber sole keeps peeling off everytime I bring it out.

I was thinking of getting the cp Chelsea, little disappointed to hear that it falls apart.

2
AXhunterOP•

Yep, totally legitimate concern. The sole is definitely the worse quality part of the boot. It's still decent, but could be better. The structure of the sole seems ok, after about ~3 weeks of use. The back of the heel is a little bit rounded, but otherwise ok. The primary issue that I can see is that the point of contact between the spine and the paw of the boot seems to be under quite a bit of stress when on foot, though it hasn't demonstrated any signs of damage yet.

It seems that my biggest issue is that the rubber does not hold up very well in the presence of salt (here in Canada we use it to keep the snow off of walkways). Many areas of the sole appear to be slightly damaged by it.

I'll try to update this post if anything significant happens.

I wonder if actually putting a toppy be good

2
AXhunterOP•

This might be the case. Ill consider it. I just learned about these so
