What's your biggest regret buy?
Did you spend a ton on some commoner trend like HBA or workwear? Was the fit just shit?
Show /fa/ what you took that L on
I spent a 1000€ on a single pair of boots.
>>11185320
i bought yeezy season 1 work pants in the tan colour for full retail price
they went on sale for like half price a few months later and the pants fit like SHIT, having a hard time selling :(
pretty much everything
>>11185348
This tbqh
bought these nike dunks lux when i was just getting into fashun. starting in r/streetwear was shitty
>>11185348
and also tuition and rent and a ticket to that show I left because I came alone and felt anxious and looked terribly out of place
>>11185348
elaborate
>fits perfect
>9/10 condition at retail
I just feel like such a fuccboi I've only worn it once. I'm almost too embarrassed to sell it.
My biggest regrets are the things I bought from asos 3 years ago when I was starting out here. While all the clothing has fallen apart long ago, the shoes have been worn once or twice because they're so embarrassingly cheap and uncomfortable
Probably most of my OG Lang stuff
He's definitely one of my favorite designers and the pieces are all super amazing and innovative but I mostly rock a different look so it all sits in my closet
I don't wear it and I don't have the space and budget to keep it all in archival condition
Might just start selling it
>>11185470
What the fuck, if you have OG pieces of HL that are collectinf dust and you regret buying then what the fuck did you move on to? Full CCP wtf? Also what pieces/sizes do you have. Im super into Helmut Lang archival pieces.
>>11185434
kids is the shit desu
Although I would also be embarrassed to wear a sweater with 12 year old kids smoking a blunt.
>>11185320
Back in 2010: Clark's Desertboots and a Peacoat.
Never use the stuff, going to sell it to a pleb friend probably.
All my stupidest purchases were the shit I cheaped out on, like some H&M shirts, but that's only like $30 down the drain so I can't really complain.
Maybe my supreme hoodie? But if I truly regretted it I can still sell it and even then break even because it's hyped.
needed a suit in a hurry before flight left
H&M right next to me
suit fell apart a month later
>>11185320
Back then Harry was kind of a qt, what happened harold...
>>11185409
buyers remorse on everything we purchase bc of low self-esteem (looks better in our head) and other factors.
>>11185591
He got fatter.
>>11185493
Lol yeah I'm mostly into that artisanal shit now
lots of Sruli Recht, Devoa, Viridi-Anne and the like.
I sold most of my crazy Lang pieces a while back. I think all I have now is some cargo pants with like ten zippers and the zipper waistband, a few bondage shirts, and a few mesh tees with various reflective stripes, maybe a double layered knit
>>11185360
Those shoes are excellent. What size do you wear? If they are 12-13, send them to me.
>>11185913
Yeah, makes sense. I figured you had to have moved on to real artisanal garments if you are getting away from HL, as that is leagues ahead of the typical /fa/ goer.
>>11185601
>get into fashion to hopefully look better
>the more you get into the more self conscious you get
>>11185434
I'll buy unless you're fat
>>11185601
>>11185991
I went through this phase but eventually got a lot more confident and happier once in became more knowledgeable and realistic about fashion in reality
Two pairs of Acne jeans. Jesus, they were so poorly made. The fit was nice at least.
![MG_7942[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/4P7JghA.jpg "MG_7942[1].jpg")
These Asics
I spent well over retail on them but I've worn them maybe 5 times.
>>11185538
How did you get into this stuff three years after /fa/ saturation?
>>11186002
I'll take them senpai
I spent thousands upon thousands on HBA. A few months later, Rocky released his song. Literally a week later, nobody wore HBA. I couldn't even resell it. I would get countless messages telling me my shit was weak. I became physically ill at all the laughs I would get by the hypest of beasts who now magically all wore yeezy and slp. I cried walking into that McDonald's. After waiting in line, my SNATCH TRAP jersey and HBA gear was soaked in tears and I was shaking. I ordered my meal (a twenty peice nugget and fries), and tried to hand my money to the attractive young cashier. She giggled and leaned in close. "You can keep that", she softly renarked, and canceled my order from the register, before getting her manager to escort me out.
>>11186521
>I would get countless messages telling me my shit was weak

Bought a pair of boots that were too big
I like them and they look great but they are just plain too big unfortunately

SPEND
H&M grey pants for 25$ xD shitty quality and cdg shitty hoodie
going half assed into entry level "artisanal shit" and not committing to the look. If anything i regressed to more normcore-ish clothing, so my devoa and lumen et umbra joints sit in the closet. Also my buttero 7 holes maybe cz how tall/sharp they are and i could've copped other things for cheaper/better value
>>11186002
Thise are sweet tho, would've copped if i hadnt pulled the trigger on the sbtg collab instead
>>11185320
Everything I buy except shoes and suits. NOTHING fits me, I am too muscular/fat and a fucking manlet 5'8 or 5'9.
Skinny jeans when I'm fat
It's good motivation to lose weight I guess
>>11187044
sell it to me =]

Why didn't you try get a refund fuckhead? God you're suck a weak cuck.
>>11186521
>>11185320
Pants I bought before I realized that high waisted relaxed fit was for me. I can't believe I subscribed to that shit meme even for a little while. Actually having freedom of movement and being able to bend down without my pants slipping down my butt is fantastic.
>>11187682
seller never marked it as shipped, and waited until after the 30 day window to send them. Ebay couldn't cover it after 30 days, and paypal never responded to my inquiry. Pretty much what I expected buying shoes on ebay desu sem pie
>>11187875
i know this feel
didn't realize just how uncomfortable and awful low waisted pants were. never going back
>>11188035
lmao, you are super dumb
>>11185434
ship to italy?
>>11185434
id buy depending on the size, eu ship?
>>11185557
back in 2014 like right before the hype train really really took off i bought some supreme jersey during their sale, never really touched it but been selling my stuff now for 200%-300% profit, fuccbois are autists
>>11186000
i regretted buying acne jeans even in sale because they don't fit well, like they look good but feel odd to wear
also checked
>>11186521

>>11187292
Probably gonna go up grailed after i return for my holiday
>>11185320
Bought white converse like a week ago, and they look perfect on me, but they destroy my fingers and i cant buy a larger pair because it would look bad
>>11185601
Basic rule is that you have to pull off the attitude of your clothes.
>>11187315
me, i have anemia and it fucking sucks all year round except the summer, but summer heat can kill regardless ugh

where to cop that jacket?
or this one?
>>11185320
That guy looks pretty cool except all of his clothes look cheap and his shoes and pants don't match.
(I know it was probably all very expensive)

A made in USA jacket off kickstarter that fits like shit and looks bad
Nike af1 because they crease and crumple in such an ugly way and cost fucking £70
>>11188548
>A made in USA jacket off kickstarter that fits like shit and looks bad
That's the american craftsmanship I know :')
>>11187875
Fucking this. The lack of crotch room alone is a fucking nuisance.
>>11188445
>they destroy my fingers
I had that problem too, until I realised you're meant to wear them on your feet and not your hands.
>>11188562
I fell for the muh heritage muh freedoms made in murrica bullshit. Pretty pissed at myself for wasting so much money on it desu.
>>11185340

APC, this is the current one. older one had shearling instead

>>11185320
Raw jeans and roughout iron rangers. I was trying to get a more "urban" style (hipster, not negro), which was completely idiotic because I already had prep down to a science since I was born to the breed.
>>11188035
>waiting 30 days for a shipment with no tracking
You got what you deserved

These. Like what the hell am I supposed to wear with these without looking like a tool
>>11188870

just get them beat senpai
>>11186521
This sweater in size M. I'm a size XS-S, but this is the first CE item I purchased and didnt check measurements properly.
>>11188574
Wow thanks annon you saved me
>>11185346
Why did people think that his fashion line would take off? $120 for a fucking white t-shirt?
I bought a superdry jacket without entirely understanding the ramifications
An obscure Henrik Vibskov piece I realized I will never wear about 1 hour after buying.
Proxied a bomber from Japan that was listed as 100% leather and it ended up being faux leather. Fuck me.
drkshdw geopocket cargos with the strap on the back for retail
they were super wide straight leg and billowed in the wind like some nightmare goth pajama pants
can't be bothered to check from what season these are but prolly like ss11, from the dark undank times before tricky ricky discovered slim fit and before prisoners were a thing
then I realized they are essentially long ass pod shorts, ended up making them into cutoffs and making rorts outta them, now I rock em all the time in the summer
no ragrets I guess :^)
>>11188945
rock the oversized look senpai
>>11185434
would buy
I bought like $300 worth of mall tier clothes(rue 21) before coming to /fa/. Then I began losing weight because I went to the gym. Then bought more clothes for like $400ish and just donated the other trash that didn't fit.
>>11190553
I dont think Im attractive enough for that...
Diesel jeans. Fucking expensive and I absolutely hate the cut now although at the time of purchase I thought it looked cool.
a closet full of jordans
>>11185320
Pic related, but in all black. They were 1/2 too big. That was the last time i took /fa/s advice. Fuck you guys.
>>11192400
I forgot the picture...
I bought a pair of down-insulated All Stars. Unless you literally outside in the snow they were sweltering, and a half-size too small anyway.
>>11185320
dropped $900 on a givenchy t shirt a few seasons ago..oh well
i bought a burberry trench coat 5 years ago back when i wasnt very effay and paid 2k for it and i've only worn it like 4 times
I bought 1k miles at size 10.5 because I thought I"d grow into them during my sophmore year of high school, they've been sitting in my closet for almost 4 years because they fit like 11s and I'm still a size 10.
MMM gats
CP sneakers that were too big
Another 2 pairs of CP sneakers though I did where one of them heavily
x2 red wing boots
4x TOJ jackets. yeah stfu. all too small for me now cos I'm not as skinny as I was.
got memed out hard. and I wear non of those anymore.
though after all that wasted money I now have my look down.
I bought a smoking jacket from betabrand a few years ago.
I still cringe to this day when I think about it. Gave it to goodwill after I started coming here and lost some weight
>>11188480
CA$H !!
wool and cashmere knits from muji.
everything just fell apart after a season. stretched out, pilled hardcore, and literally formed holes.
sad because their sweaters look so good when you get them and i'm perfectly satisfied with most of the other stuff they sell.
So I guess it was just $200 down the drain, but i'm still pissed about it though.
>>11188957
lol
>>11188035
good to know
>>11185320
Most things from g star except a hoodie and jeans
Im fucking insane
>>11192639
@H@H@H@H@H@
you're clear winner
holy fuck
>>11192436
what size? You can resell that easy
>>11192416
lol that looks pretty bad, sorry for you
>>11185348
>tfw this
I had to start from scratch bro. I ditched most of my clothes and bought basics only, then started browsing charity shops for all my other shit
>>11185470
i copped a shit ton of rick including some major grails and i never wear it coz its impracticall as shit, you cant ride a bike or be active in drop crotch pants and the high armholes are uncomfortable and make you sweat very fast, fortunatley i bought all of it used so getting my money back shouldnt be too much of an issue, i actually mostly wear cheap durable clothing now along with interesting shoes.
I think I bought a fake Kanken from eBay, but I don't know how to prove it to the seller so I'm lumped with it until I have evidence.
>>11195155
Not him but I just copped these. Would you feel sorry for me as well? :^(
>>11185434
>wearing sweater with niglets on it
>>11195548
Those are worse.
>>11195628
Elaborate?
I love the way some blakk derby's look and because I can't afford some high tier ones I went for the classic DM
4 years ago when I didn't know how to dress at all, I jumped on the MFA meme train and bought a pair of iron rangers at full retail (300 CAD). wore them probably 10 times, gave them to a friend 6 months ago who had always wanted a pair.
Also (around the same time) was reading GQ and took the "size down! People get everything way too big!" Advice completely the wrong way and bought a bunch of clothes that are waaaaaay too tight. I only really kicked that habit recently and now have a closet full of clothes that don't really fit. Including a black reigning champ hoodie that's a size small :(
I also just impulse buy a lot of shit and regret it later even now.
>>11195186
I'm kind of at this phase now and it's demoralizing. At the same time, glad I'm finally taking he time to learn how to build a good fit instead of buying a bunch of big name designer clothes and hoping it looks good.

I spent over $1000 on a stupid dad-core leather jacket. It's not even that bad, it just looks terrible on me. I guess I can save it for when I'm 40+ so it's not a total wash. Nothing else has made me feel like an idiot compared to that damn jacket. Except for also doing this >>11188957. But I was 16, and realized my mistake pretty quickly, so whatever.
>>11188957
This.
>>11188957
>>11195696
care to explain? other than the chinglish
>>11195696
Lol same. It's handmade and MTO and everything. Not even dadcore but it's a stupid collarless moto that makes me look like a tryhard. It's all crumpled up in my closed now. Wtf was I thinking.
>>11195654
The piping around the ankle, the lettering on the sides, the rope laces, the chunky sole(can be cool---not the case here though), the cheap looking material...
Other than being black they really don't have much going for them.
I wear my black derbies with pretty much anything. They're clean, sleek, minimalistic and inoffensive footwear.
Yours look like bulky plastic monstrosities.
Footwear and outerwear are worth spending on, m8.
>>11195719
>Other than being black they really don't have much going for them.
Fair enough thanks for that, I will see how they look like IRL.
I will replace the laces and usually wear my pants down (so over the piping around the ankle) and I'll use them mainly for walking - I assume once they're broken into they'll look better.
This is not a consolation though as I still enjoy them (mainly the chunky sole).
>>11195696
What kind of jacket is it?
Fucking stupid Promode oxfords, that are made of wood and impossible to wear.
>>11185320

Shit naked and famous denim because faggots on this board were all about it 2 years ago
>>11195956
What's wrong with N&F? Still happy with all my pairs.
i bought for the adidas meme and am already regretting it
they won't even be here and i'm filled with regret
>>11197371
what did you buy in particular?
