They had a collab with highsnobiety called blank staples in like 2022 I believe. Very heavy 400 gsm French terry unisex zip ups. Arms are big asf but it got such an amazing crop. I own a few colors of them I bought on sale for like $25 each, retail was like $60 each and even at that it was a steal

This situation is frustrating because it's a clear case of people not understanding how clothing production works and having short memories. I own a Washed Black Dove hoodie from the first release, which is the highest quality hoodie I have. I also have Dove hoodies from later releases, including exclusive colors like White and Tan. While these later releases use premium materials, they don't match the quality of the original. In today's climate, many would wrongly call my original hoodie fake. I believe these hoodies were 100% legitimate and intended for release by Gap, but were held back. The quality of YGEBB pieces declined with each drop as Gap prioritized higher margins. It's unreasonable to blame LAA for what is essentially Gap's decision. People are reacting without understanding the situation, and it wouldn't be surprising if LAA either stops dropping YGEBB pieces or increases their prices.

@kiddcarmine_ 4 ай бұрын

The issue isn’t that it’s a different batch from release, the issue is that they lied and marketed the hoodies as being the original 2022 release. I’m sure if they released them for the same price, but stated they were a different production model, there would be no issue.

@chasefrederick9409 4 ай бұрын

@kiddcarmine_ But that's my point: If people actually understood that not even Gap released that first batch again, this whole situation doesn't happen. People walked into this thinking they were going to a 1:1 of the very first run. Anybody with any knowledge of release times of this collection or how clothing manufacturing works wouldn't expect this. It all comes down to a poorly informed audience

@thenoch2418 4 ай бұрын

@@chasefrederick9409 Not sure how you are trying to pin this one on a "poorly informed audience" when it's in fact LAA who decided to MARKET the hoodie like the OG version back in 2022. I understand what you are saying don't get me wrong BUT LAA messed up by not being truthful here and should have informed their audience that this batch of hoodies is different to the 2022 version

For me personally, I was never able to get the OG hoodie and from what I’ve seen this “newer” one doesn’t look even bad. I think the main issue is definitely the fact that they promoted the og 2022 hoodie. If they just said it’s gonna be let’s say an updated Dove hoodie that never released I don’t think we would’ve seen such an uproar and disappointment. I’m hyped either way but it’s unfortunate companies can’t be transparent

@DeaupasBeats 4 ай бұрын

I’d be okay with it if it wasn’t worse (IMO) I own 2 real dove hoodies and I love that the gap logos are barely visible.. kind of an iykyk situation. Other than that, I agree, if they disclosed the differences in the site, it’d be cool

@EternalNightingale 4 ай бұрын

As someone who had the OG then later sold it for double the retail price and copping this for $70 it’s definitely a deal and the hoodie overall doesn’t even look that bad and I’d be rocking mine definitely when it comes next week

I think the new dove hoodie was just a production run that hadn't been released yet. After that first initial release and that's why nobody had this version yet. Tthey probably changed the production after the first release which are these hoodies now.

@thatcattieroguy 4 ай бұрын

yup, the "blurry" back print is exactly the same as the print on the dove merch that was available for purchase at the Donda 2 Listening Party which leads me to believe these were probably meant to be sold there but weren't for some reason

@ItDitry it would be incredibly strange for them to specifically copy the print of the donda 2 lp batch of clothes instead of the og drop if they were made recent tho. either way they still scammed the fans by claiming it was og drop when it wasnt but this is such a weird detail if they were to be reproduction

On the tweet he says “measurements are damn near exact to the OG drop”…Only difference I see is the older one is washed out. That could easily just be from being worn and washed many times whereas the new one hasn’t been. I would love to see the 2.0 hoodie after you wash it as much as you did the older one.

Hopefully people see this comment and cancel their order before it ships. Having an OG hoodie, there is no comparison on how trash the quality of these new hoodies are. The cotton feels like sandpaper, the comfy liner inside the OG isn’t there, and the dove is way off color. There’s also no barcode tag inside the hoodie which kind of confirms that these were manufactured post collab

So, I check the official LA Apparel depop all the time, and they have sold some damaged yeezy gap items recently. So they definitely have some product sitting around somewhere.

So ive been seeing speculations that Ye has personally partnered with LAA, they not only made the yeezy gap, they manufactured all the donda/yeezy standalone merch as well. Same address and factory. If that is the case, then how could the hoodie be fake? I wouldnt be surprised if he released all this yeezy gap stuff himself this way so that US consumers cud buy it without it being directly tied to him, since we didnt get the yeezy gap stuff on his regular website release for $20 like you guys did in Europe.

Not trying to be mean or nothing Elliot, but you gotta stop wearing so much baggy clothing.

Try to pair some more fitted pieces with some baggier pieces to complement with each other.
