This gives of more of a geometric type printed vibe to me - and that’s not a vibe that I like tbh
It seems very hard to pull of. The model styling it is also not very good, so maybe that is influencing it for me
feels like the wrong type of jacket for that design imo
i'm predisposed to not liking tie dye but also the print looks a little too neat and ordered
if you like it wear it though, it might be better worn in
If the jacket was absolutely beat to shit it would look better
But still
I love tie-dye and I love red, but this jacket doesn't really do it for me. It might be what it's paired with, but it seems to be simultaneously too much and not enough.
Saw it for $40 secondhand so I’m like a maybe, it’s mostly the discount but I think it’s somewhat interesting anyway
Might just go for it and resell it for a higher price point if it ends up just taking up space
Consider that theres a reason its on discount and not selling
Well it’s not on discount per se, it’s what the person is willing to resell for but I think get the point you’re making
do you have experience in flipping clothes, particularly clothes like this?
if you like it because of its design, fine
if you like it as an experiment, fine
i would not assume you'll be able to turn a profit on this if you suddenly dislike it; if you're okay with that potential sunk cost, fine. if not i wouldn't buy it
The retail price was $875 + tax, my thinking was that I would list it on a site more relevant for this, Grailed rather than where I saw it
Retail price means nothing much when it comes to second hand pricing
That’s not really true though
Or well it’s just not true lol
Then everything of the same quality would be priced the same and that’s obviously not the case
Okay go try and resell that jacket
You got this
You must be fun at parties
i would question why such a rare and valuable jacket is able to be sold for so little
saw a few of those on grailed as it is; i don't think it's a sellers market but i'm just a guy
Yeah from what I could see a fairly similar one had sold on grailed, like 3 years ago for $375. Then there’s a more pink version on there possibly same collection, which hasn’t sold. You’re probably right tho
the very short length combined with the deep red color will make it a very siutational piece
would you wear this more than once a year?
id recommend focusing on building a wardrobe thats versatile and fits most occasions, then adding those super-niche pieces later
