Well spoken RFX........but I'm not going to lie.....here in H-Town. way too many cats are od'ing with the Louis, YSL, and Gucci clothing andaccessories....Am I offended by it?....Hell No!!!! to each their own...I just try to stay in my lane........Does its accessibility and popularity effect thequality of the product?.....I wouldn't know, but more than likely no................Is it corny seeing a bunch of cats rockin' many desingner labels asthe new "it" trend because rappers and other celebs are wearing them, rather than wearing the clothing and accessories out of a genuine appreciationfor its profound quality and craftsmanship? Yes, but hypebeast are gonna be be hypebeast regardless of what trends are popular, and again to each their own.

I see what you are saying but don't think it's fair to say everyone or most are just buying because of celebrities, I'm not saying your saying thateveryone is buying because of celebrities, I just need to get that out of the way because there really is no hate here. I just think it is a bit unfair though,I mean sure we see it on celebrities but it is not like we are going to buy because Kanye wore it and it's not like the LV Graphite line has been out fordecades and are barely becoming famous because of celebrities. The Graphite line has only been a year old (I think two years old now) and everyone in thisthread knows we were anticipating it months before its release. Celebrities just happen to get their hands on these items first so of course, those who happensto genuinely like them gets labeled as a poser or just copying celebrities when for the most part, people just like it. I mean it is simple, the color is moreversatile being black and grey and it isn't exactly an obnoxious LV monogram pattern and it is the first line by LV that is exclusively made for men.

there are definitely people who buy it to be flashy and i doubt they truly care or know anything bout the craftsmanship, those are the people that buy it forwhat it isnt but for what it represents: money and thats how celebrities influence people imo, some people have 0 idea what lv/gucci or other brands werebefore it blew up, you cannot say high end has not gone very mainstream since rappers started representing these companies and adding them to their lyrics
i would say most people are buying it because of the hype, i doubt more then half the teenagers and younger adults can easily afford to blow that kind of moneyconsistently or were wearing this stuff before the hype
i think the majority of the usual posters in this thread are in it truly for the product, but everytime i see a random pop in asking things such as whats thecheapest way to get such an such (especially when its lv) i kinda laugh to myself because there are high chances this lifestyle isnt for you, if your onlyindulging yourself once in a while theres nothing wrong but makesure you got your priorities straight
as for the comment about asians playin it out, come on asians have been buying lv and gucci forever so its either been played out forever or nothings changed

That always happens.
Like with Saks, they have a Black Friday sale from 8 to noon on Friday with extra 40% off.
Some items are already marked up to 40% off at the website but people have confirmed that the discounts in store will be 55%-65% with less brands excluded,like Rag & Bone, etc..

anyone know if Dior Homme has done their in store sale yet? Or have any info on it for that matter...
I heard everything goes 50% off at the end of the season, hoping I can catch it when I'm in L.A. next month.

Went to go browse around LV today and the varsity jacket was priced at $18xx towards the $1900 mark. The material is really nice, but the jacket is so damnthin for $1900. There's also an all white hoody that just released with a big LV logo across the chest. It was priced at $898. Also went to gucci and thesale was weak over all. All in all good day didn't spend or waste any money
