My Mrs done an online shop at Matalan for clothes a few months ago, she must have ordered about 30 items, kept one and sent the rest back. Always have a spy in C&A when I'm in Eastern Europe mind, see if there's any decent casuals gear on the racks!
The Kooples is the new big thing in Manchester for lads, I can't even get into half their stuff and I'm not particularly big or anything, I thought I was putting on a pair of birds tights when I was trying some of their pants on. Seems you've got to be built like a Glaswegian needle sharer to fit into half this clobber now.
Im not in that area either However found Lyle Polo's/Jumpers that fit quite well strangely Penguin is the worst for skinny ****s, shame as there stuff does look good
Haha. I'm bang into chino's instead of jeans at the minute, and that's a bit trying like, size wise. people mock chino's but the right cut and colour and they look sound. ****ing cheap an arl, in comparison to good jeans and joggers. Lyle jumpers aren't fitted, so I can't get away with them, they just flop about on me like.
I'm always skint too but wear mostly designer. You can get a fred perry for under 20 quid on Ebay and Asos Marketplace. You can get a Penguin Polo for a fiver, **** Primani off mate it's ****ed after a couple of good washes. EBay and Asos Market place is the way. My Lass has just bought a new with tags size 8 Burberry Polo Shirt from some rich bitch clearing out her Wardrobe for a tenner on Asos Marketplace. (It's **** on mens Clothes but there's loads of profit to be made in womenswear), but she'll sell that polo for about 40 to 70 quid on ebay, which we'll split to buy Clothes each. I'm after a dirty green Fred Perry Polo to go with my Chocolate All Saints Cords (which cost me 15 quid on ebay). It's the way mate.
That is true mate. Random fact. SAFC strips are made in Thailand, all the training gear etc, in China.
Aye, Ralph Lauren is all Vietnam & Thai, Mulberry is Thai, insane really. Cost pennies to make but can't deny the quality of the work.
Whenever I find a good bargain I always end up getting shafted for something off the Mrs, like I bought 8 pairs of Armani boxers at House of Fraser and they made a mistake at the tills, they charged me £22 for the lot, should have been £18 a pair or something daft. As soon as we got outside she realised what had happened and ended up justifying that I had to spend the £100 odd quid I'd saved on her, she ended up with a new pair of shoes and a top, I never get **** all man.
Yeah, a lot of the 'fake' stuff isn't fake it's just out the back door straight into the MBK mall in Bangkok, love that place, apart from the food level, that ****ing reeks. My Mrs Mulberry is defo a fake mind, the tag says "Made in Ingland".
She's a pro mate My lass buys & sells clothes so I do alright on that score, she just keeps what she wants, she's doing class actually, looking at opening a small boutique in Marbella, and gradually growing it online here. ****ing amazing the price she gets stuff from suppliers for, she got a load of these bandage dress things, bought in bulk worked out about £18 per unit, she's knocking them out for £50-70 for fun on eBay, fair play to her like. It's easier for women to look good for less, no question.
. Well it went to Ingland. The food halls are lush. Well if you like things that will burn your guts out.
My lass has a fake Mulberry purse, and a real one, and they are ****ing identical mate, like you say, they aren't so much 'fake' as 'stolen' ha. Come from the same factory, made by the same people.
Yeah my Mrs is into all that, I tell you what, if you've got an eye for what people will buy in 6 months you're on the road to riches pal. My Mrs is exactly the same, she bought in loads of gear last year from China and Bangladesh, had about 15-20 lines before boohoo and missguided had them on their websites, she knew they'd sell out on the websites and ended up charging people through their noses for the stuff while boohoo had stock on the water coming in from China, we had 3 holidays off that last year. All cos her sister works as a stylist for net-a-porter (she got me my flying gear from Mr Porter for nowt...samples!). She has her uses!
