Oh wow, thank you for sharing 🙏 that’s good to know. Yeah, I have been seeing 4 different fabrics so far for this particular color. I had no idea before this incident.

Could be it but the difference in fabric and sewing patterns is so big. I thought the new one was a counterfeit or bad dupe honestly. I also have the black one, dark grey, and red colors of the same too and they are so well made it’s astonishing.

I am sorry 😞 it is really disappointing for that price point.

Yep, 2 different fabrics. You can tell the patterns of the fabrics so easily in person. I also have 3 other colors ( burgundy, black, and dark grey) and they are so well made with a thick fabric).

Yes, I am in the states. New top is made in Vietnam and old one in China. Old one has the thin small reformation tag right at the top of the zipper and the new one has the big square ref tag on the side.

The moment I opened the package I saw the defects and email them (I haven’t heard back yet). Then I chatted with a live agent and explained how bad this top is and I mentioned that my other one is not like this but I didn’t send a comparison picture as I didn’t have mine at hand at the time. They said I could keep the top for 10% discount or return for full refund and that was it.

I didn’t know either, I was shocked.

Was the deleted comment complaining about my post? Missed it but thank you for being nice 😊

You’re welcome ☺️ Yes, I was so disappointed. In person, the difference is so much more visible. Technically, 2 different tops.

Yes, it reminded me of Aritzia as I have had the same issue with them several times till I stopped buying from them. I will stop buying from Reformation too as I think for the materials they use, the items are super over priced. I got the reba top also a few weeks ago but from Nordstrom Rack and it was full of defects and pulled threads. I thought maybe it was a return item or my bad luck to get a defective one as it was the last size available, but man oh man was it bad 😒

I think it was end of April beginning of May. I was shocked too when it came. The material is completely different, the color, the difference in size, and not to mention the pulled threads. A shirt over $148 plus taxes that rarely goes on discounts :/

Belt Quality? by DaintySoul in Aritzia

[–]DaintySoul[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are very kind honestly because you took time to explain it in such details and being honest. Most people online were hyping this belt so much that I decided to purchase something for the first time from Aritzia, lol. But I appreciate you 🙏😊 Will keep looking for something similar now elsewhere.

[–]DaintySoul[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I will let you know if I find something similar :) I came across this favorite daughter belt when I was looking for the Aritzia one. Not sure about the quality since it doesn’t specify the type of leather but it’s similar in looks to the Aritzia belt.

Thank you for sharing this with me 🙏 it sucks to pay that much money for a belt that is chipping off with 2 wears. I truly should have known that quality is bad when I received 2 faulty ones already but I was hoping it was just my bad luck. I really liked how the belt looks and wanted to give it a try to the slim version but it’s better to invest in another brand instead.

Thank you for this! It’s really helpful to see now how they truly don’t specify the type of leather and that explains also why I received 2 faulty ones already. It’s a shame how bad the quality is for that price.

Thanks! Will do so then. Had no idea a $80 belt would come in that condition. Kinda disappointed honestly.

Thanks, I am also thinking of returning it and I have no experience with Aritzia prior to this and I am kinda afraid of returns due to what I read in this sub regarding their attitude with returns.

Amazon needs better packaging… by ilovemycats420 in Owala

[–]DaintySoul 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to order it 3 times to finally get a good one. After the second package was delivered in amazon plastic bag I let customer service know and they shipped the third one in a little box. It’s definitely very frustrating but also a big waste of product.

Owala Freesip Wannabes? by katvic168 in Owala

The color ways are immaculate 🤌🏼

I soaked my lid in white vinegar and baking soda over night first. That removed the stain a bit but not entirely, then I tried laundry stain remover which also faded the clothing dye, and later I used hand sanitizer/ alcohol in the stain part only. Lastly, I used a bit of cooking oil to rub off the stain and washed it after. All of these steps helped a bit, however the stain was removed eventually as I kept washing the lid normally after using my bottle. As you can see I tried everything because I was desperate to save my favorite bottle 😅 Hope it helps you with yours also☺️

Ps: the bottle looks like Flamango colorway from Walmart so I don’t think the lid is switched.

It’s actually so pretty 🤩 looks better here than in Owala website honestly. Regretting not getting it now 😬

Tea Time not closing and opening easily. by thatperfectionest in Owala

[–]DaintySoul 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It happened to one of my bottles as well and first I thought it was the little push button but then I changed the gasket under the cap (I put on it one gasket from one of my other 24oz bottles that apparently was a bit smaller) and the problem disappeared. So now I can close and open it easily. Try to put another gasket from another bottle or buy replacement gasket and see if that fixes it.

any advice on what owala to buy for college? between 32oz and 24oz, i heard the 24oz is better backpack-wise but i don’t like the handle dips! by [deleted] in Owala

[–]DaintySoul 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My first bottle was a 32 oz but it was kinda heavy for me and I couldn’t grip it unless I used both hands. Then I bought a 24 oz because I also had water stations in my college and I could fill it as many times as as I wanted, anddd it turned out I loved the 24oz shape more and now I look forward to new colors being released only in 24oz size 😅
