  1. It did look very 'generic', but still interesting. What's the general quality like? Do you know much about the brand itself- is it small workshop stuff or a larger outfit masquerading as an artisan.

     

    As a fellow European- how have you found buying stuff from Taobao?

  2. Who/where/what is Bob Dong? From the brief search i've done, stuff looks good. Only available in China??

     

     

    Really taking a liking to this Duck jacket by Bob Dong, it's a bit shorter than what I'm used to but I think it still works with shorter T-Shirts. Fabric still has some weird lines and folds and needs to settle more.

  3. There was a craze over here (UK) in the early 90's I guess to put Grolsch bottle tops on your DM shoes. Started by a pop band of the time called Bros.

    I guess this pre-dates that by a good 30 years

  4. yep- UK customs are very strict. I bought something last week taking advantage of the free shipping offer on Rakuten (plus asked for the value to be marked low), but on arrival in the UK i've been charged VAT on a combination of both the value of the items & the postage, plus the usual handling charge on top of that.

     

    The buggers. :angry:
