Need Help! Bikkembergs Fingerles Gloves

[keska]

Hi all,

I'm planning on buying these fingerles gloves i saw on yoox.com because the weather is getting kind off chilly and i need my fingers to get things out of my pockets and control my mp3 player.

http://www.yoox.com/item/tskay//rr/1/cod10/460182812C/areaid/36/st/N/BIKKEMBERGS/Gloves

I am kind of very very low on cash but i still need good gloves for the winter and i figured if i'd oughta buy good gloves i might as well buy the best so i can use them next year and the year after that as well. Does anyone of you guys have any advice to give me or do you know a webshop that sells better fingerles gloves please let me know. They have to ship to europe though. I would really like to hear your opinion about this, what would you guys do if you were in this kind of situation, is this a good choice or do u have better ideas.

Wealth is the heart of mind, not the pocket.

$2 gloves + scissor.

[My Pal the Crook]

HAHAHAHAHA. You're about to drop $60 on a pair of fingerless gloves?? For a site full of supershoppers some of you are really clueless as to where to find and how much you should pay for basic items. You can buy cotton and sometimes wool fingerless gloves for between $2-$8 at almost EVERY street vendor that sells scarves, hats and gloves in any metropolitan city. But then again they won't have a little designer tag, that shit usually provides 95% of the warmth no?

[keska]

But i want good quality and if possible designer fingerles gloves. I live in holland btw shops here are not so fund of gloves, fingerles nonetheless.

$60 for a 20% polyamide? Not very worth it

[djrajio]

Yeah seriously. Go to a local surplus/army store or even a reasonable department store and you can get wool gloves for $20 bucks max. Just take some scissors and your done.

ok, seriously, this is supertalk, not walmarttalk

how the hell can you criticize someone wanting to buy a pair of designer gloves when you are the same people buying 200 dollar premium jeans. Why not grab a pair of 20 dollar levis from zellers? Whats the difference? really? those are nice looking gloves, designer shit costs more than dime a dozen shit obviously.

Jesus this is ridiculous

[djrajio]

Cuz homeboy is gonna pay $60 bucks for something not 100% wool. Seriously, call me when you get can grab $20 selvedge and then we'll talk.

If you must insist on designer fingerless gloves then do a search on ebay for Marc Jacobs fingerless gloves. Bunch of them going for $20-25 right now.

[breakfasteatre]

i should say though that designer doesnt necessarily mean quality, i would not, and i didnt, buy designer gloves this winter, i found nice ones at h&m for like 7 bucks.

Thank you that didnt cross my mind :S. I did some searching and came upon this :http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=6780074184&ssPageName=MERC_VI_RSCC_Pr4_PcY_BIN_Stores_IT

I don't NEED them to be designer just because of the tag, i just want something good and i thought that that was the best quality/price comparisson i could get. If its cashmere i dont care if its designer or not.

PS: Isn't this a bargain !? http://cgi.ebay.com/New-DSQUARED-Cashmere-Short-Scarf-white_W0QQitemZ6825296960QQcategoryZ63852QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Don't care if its fake as long as its good cashmere 8-)

whow, are those DSQuared scarves real??

-k

[djrajio]

Man. I feel like we're back in 1998 and everyone is flossin' Nautica fleeces and Polo sport jackets. Why would anyone want to floss a DSquared stitched scarve anyways?

[DJ_Flame]

Man I don't think D-squared is a good buy. It looks like a glorified redneck look.

I recommend this instead, if you can find one. One of my favourite scarfs I own.

I think its 50% Cashmere, made by Paul Smith. With christmas sales, most stores have it for 40-60

DJ Flame: please upload that picture to Imageshack before linking it directly on this site. Or, just give a link to the item webpage URL on the Paul Smith site. That way we won't be leeching bandwidth directly.

[shoegal]

for the record, those marc jacobs fingerless gloves can be bought in their store for 5 DOLLARS. find someone and have them send them to you, dont pay someone on ebay 30 bucks for them.. they're not exactly "designer quality"...

[RobbertJan]

keska, u live in holland right?

go to the nearest h&m and you'll find them for 2 euro, pretty spot on quality

if you want to go with designer stuff, i don't know where you live, but i suggest players/image in utrecht and velvet uomi in a'dam, they'll probaly have some

[keska]

live in Eindhoven, but ill try to check that store out the next time im in utrecht.

[berent]

Try h&m, v&d, hema or we. Those shops will have the gloves you want, except the designer label

[darkanimal]

Gloves are prone to getting lost, with your purchase of designer gloves, be prepared to cry if you do lose them. I bought my fingerless wool at Autumn Skateshop.
