Knockoff Vertu?!

28 April 2008 · Leave a Comment

If you’ve read the story of the Evisu Sample sale a couple of days ago, you know how I think of knockoff products. I think that knockoff products destroy good working brands. People who spend hundreds or thousands of Euros on a product will see others spending merely a few bucks on a product that looks and feels the same. I was suprised to see that even the ultra high end Vertu luxury mobile phones have been counterfeited. The Chinese call it Veptu.

It comes with a 24K gold plated case finish and even with some diamonds. Which I bet are fake.

Beefstuk… Is that English? The Dutch word is ‘biefstuk’, it’s a piece of beef. Beefstuk.

Evisu Sample Sale in Amsterdam

27 April 2008 · 3 Comments

Evisu HQ Amsterdam

Alright so me and Roel visited the first Evisu Sample sale since Evisu’s HQ is in Amsterdam. It’s too bad that the brand ‘died’ in Europe a couple of years ago. I think back of the days that I was one of the few that wore jeans by Evisu. That’s five or six years ago. After that, the hype began. And after that the fake Evisu flood started. People shopped Evisu at their holidays in Turkey, all to be part of this craze. At that point, I tried to stay loyal to my favorite brand (at that time), but after a year looking at the idiots wearing the fake, I just couldn’t continue spending hundreds of euros to a brand that was being demolished by idiots. Luckily, that fake flood stopped and hopefully, Evisu will be back. I really think that Evisu will be back within a year or two.

On the sample sale, I bought this little wallet for my change (to put in my car) and a pencil case. Japanese denim, what else. (more…)
