Has anyone ordered clothes off of etsy?
Curious because I'm both a hard to find size and don't like a lot of the traditional options. So I've been looking at small etsy retailers, especially from central and south american regions that tend to have smaller clothes. Do you have any advice on judging quality, avoiding drop shippers, and so forth?

Etsy has lots of great stuff and lots of junk. Post individual links here to get feedback
knowing your measurements will help when looking at something with nonstandard sizing (vintage, homemade, etc.)
Its honestly like ebay, no guarantee of anything, do your best to vet stuff and try to sift diamonds from dirt
hmm, can do, although it would take me a while to sort everything!
yeah I kinda have to do that anyway. the problem with standard sizing is it doesn't fit, which is part of why I'm looking at etsy. because I hate the short men options otherwise 😛
Yeah Etsy gets worse with dropshippers every day so you have to be careful
mostly I just want stuff that actually fits ok on my 5'3'' body and looks interesting. all the "short men" brands have the problem so far that I just...don't want to buy anything they sell
I wore the one shirt I got from guatemala when I visited nearly as often as it was clean so I wanted to look for more stuff like that maybe.
