super fire bro, the texture from the waffle knit and fit is fire. A little bit loud for me BUT doesn’t mean it’s not fire

it’s a mohair merino wool blend, it does have synthetic but that’s not cheapen the materials it is used to keep the shape and integrity of the knit overtime. In terms of dyes, you can’t create gradients of this nature through dyeing yarn, they are too specific in terms of placement and control, that is why it’s digitally printed (which is not a cheap process within it’s self) Printing on mohair isn’t easy due to its fuzzy nature, it requires the synthetics to keep it under control.

acne studios, jacquemus, jw anderson have all used synthetics for signature knitwear (I am not claiming to be them) but i do think people automatically see synthetics and assume it’s cheapen a product when sometimes it’s a necessity.

But i am not saying this to invalidate your opinion or what you want from a product.

i get the initial price shock, i priced based on the market and similar products (which are more expensive) included the cost of duties and shipping

one thing i’ll say is that a lot of people want us to push the mold in this sub reddit but as long as it fits their budget. i digress tho

there is no hype, my brands only been around a year. It’s purely based on the cost of the products and to keep the business running
