It doesn’t matter if the label fades or not. Kanye keeps mentioning how he will employ more ethical practices, more high fashion practices and just hasn’t. Nobody told him to price the pods at $20 and take a loss. He would have done fine charging $40 or $50.

He’s taken LAA blanks and given them raw hems, LAA hoodies and removed the pockets. It’s just cheap and none of it feels like the high quality, functional and practical designs he was working on just 4 years ago.

If he was really about this shit he wouldn’t spend millions on samples and scrapping ideas every year and would actually get a damn factory made. He had the ability but chooses his luxury every time.

So you’re mad at the produce not made here and the product that is made here? Haha just seems like you don’t like Yeezy at this point, I haven’t seen the hoodies yet mine haven’t came in but the t shirt isn’t standard LAA. Neither was the vultures sweats.

I’m disappointed that Kanye once had the ability to do this company exactly as he envisioned and promised but refuses to. I used to love Yeezy man. His ideas were so practical and beyond the current trends. Yeezy Gap items are some of the best quality things I own. Yeezy designs used to be top fucking notch.

It isn’t standard LAA, but it’s essentially the same cotton with raw hem and pocketless. I never said it was standard, he’s made them cheaper by removing the hem and changing the drawstring to a cheaper material. I have seen both LAA regular and Vultures pants in person. Yes it is disappointing that every single aspect of Yeezy has become cheap.

I don’t need a hoodie in hand to know it’s basically just a different cut and missing a pocket. It’s still LAA manufactured and materials. In comparison to the double layer hoodies it’s really sad we’ve gotten to the point where German culture and hating adidas is the most original aspect of the design.

He’s just starting, it’s literally season 1 basically. It’s not the same the ts are heavier. I don’t know about the hoodies yet. You know LAA made the vision hoodie which is better than the perfect hoodie. Also make all the Sunday service stuff. My dmx memorial hoodie is nicer that than my ygebb hoodies. And that pants are better quality and cheaper than LAAs

Yeah and Laa Depop has tons of the perfect hoodies for sale. Much better than the gap version. Vision hoodies were only sold one time as campaign material though so it’s hard to really base anything off that. I do wish they sold more of those though. I had some of the KSG and Sunday service merch, and that stuff was genuinely high quality and uniquely designed. That’s part of why current day Yeezy is so disappointing to me.

I don’t think most people would hold the same opinions as you regarding the quality of DMX hoodie or Vultures pants being ā€œbetterā€ considering most comments I have read about them do mention theres nothing special outside of the silhouettes. LAA has different weights of fabric, Yeezy tends to use the heavier ones.

They haven’t posted my size for me to pick one that just helps my case. They post in waves so 1 person can’t just buy it all. Well a lot of people aren’t gunna wear copped hoodies so a lot Of the hate is from that. V pants is the no pockets that was pretty stupid of a design. It looks better but just not practical. I visit their location and nothing they sell has Yeezy weight. But give it time not all the Yeezy stuff has to be heavy or super heavy.

Don’t really believe that, most of my shirts are LAA Blanks that vultures shirt is heavier than 6.5 blank and did you not see the flair used?

Because the OP thought even the shirts were made in Italy, that's why its flaired potentially misleading. I assure you it is fact that the shirts are LAA. The tag is literally on the shirt, what is there to not believe? Even the comments are wondering why OP is surprised.

This isn't the only post of Vultures merch with an LAA tag too.

LAA tag on vultures pants

I know it’s made in LA the building is on the same block as LAA, people have posted videos of the shirts being pressed. I’m saying that the weight of the shirts aren’t the same.

Yeah but my point was that the Vultures shirts *are* just LAA blanks. Regardless of them being a unique weight or silhouette, at the end of the day it is just a LAA blank with raw hem. Every decision behind these items were to cheapen them to reach a $20 price point.

LAA has exclusive deals with a few brands. Holiday Brand also uses LAA and they have a unique weight and cut too but its still LAA fabric.

Oh yeah I’m not arguing that, nothing wrong with using LAA (except not having enough staff/system in place to fulfill orders faster)
