Dude, these videos are the best videos on KZbin. They're such a breath of fresh air. So informative and really everything I've been looking for. I'm just starting to learn to sew on my own and these videos make it look possible. Nothing crazy. I just want to make my own t-shirts and pants. Please don't quit coming out with videos like this

[@Shiftfashiongroup]

Appreciate it! So much more to come!

[@virtualutopia1]

You & this channel are a gift to the internet. Keep it up. Your content is exceptional.

[@Shiftfashiongroup]

Wow, thank you!

[@bromulrich483]

I have been trying to find this kind of in super depth fabric channel for so so long, oh my god thank you.

[@Shiftfashiongroup]

Welcome! So much more to come!

[@satanlucifer4437]

I LOVE shopping Acne 2nd-hand; their pieces are very well made, hold uo well over time, and are often resold with a great discount if its a few seasons old :))

[@Shiftfashiongroup]

Good to know!

[@kaafab]

Is there a Canadian website for it?

[@stringiromana]

@@kaafabYeah! It’s called eBay 😂

[@chancejohnson384]

These videos are so in depth and amazing!!! I aspire to have your level of knowledge about these topics one day. I love buying luxury clothes, and I can definitely tell there is a major difference between my luxury clothes items and some items I buy at H&M for example. However I have no idea what the actual difference is between “normal” clothing and luxury clothing. These videos allow me to understand the difference without having to spend huge amounts of time doing research about it. Thank you and please continue to make these vids!!!

[@dianesison7055]

I came across your content 'cause of an Instagram short, I really wanted to see the full video. Great work! I watched the Essentials video right after. Super informative. Keep the videos coming! 👏🏻

[@Shiftfashiongroup]

Thanks for the kind words! We have so much more in store!

[@tracymelanie1541]

I'm really happy to found your shows

[@Shiftfashiongroup]

Happy to have you! More to come!

In general, Acne clothes seem to be really high quality. I love their knit, (t-)shirts and jeans. Of course you pay a mark-up for the brand, but it’s nice that they don’t seem to cut too many corners on quality (unlike many other big fashion brands).

[@JasonBorovski]

Great video, that is so helpful! Thank you

[@sergeyivanov8788]

So educational, please we need more

[@Shiftfashiongroup]

We have some really cool new series coming starting next week!

[@Mx_Skull]

as a hobbyist / amateur sewist and fashion lover, i LIVE for this kind of under-the-hood stuff

[@Shiftfashiongroup]

Appreciate that! Way more to come!

[@JozefEtienne]

Your channel is absolutely amazing! Keep up the great work! Any chance you plan to do Thom Browne at some point? Really interested in your take on it 🙂

[@Shiftfashiongroup]

Appreciate it! Thom Browne is definitely on the list!

[@Asrr2008]

you need to do some Satisfy Running stuff, crazy pieces they got

[@Shiftfashiongroup]

We'll add it to the list!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ stars !!!! Absolutely wonderful content

[@Shiftfashiongroup]

Thanks for your support!

[@lilnoogied.n1120]

Looking at a loopwheel made shirt would be interesting to see the costing difference. Like a Merz B Loopwheel t shirt.

[@Shiftfashiongroup]

Great idea!

[@believefavell]

Love your content! Would love to see a video where you compare blank t shirts from cheap (Uni Qlo / Hanes / Gilden), mid (Pro Club / Camber / Whitesville) and expensive (Merz B. Schwanen) to find out what's worth it for the price point. No one should be spending over £100 on a blank t shirt! I love Acne but would never by a t shirt from them, so many more exciting garments you could this money on from the brand.

[@Shiftfashiongroup]

We have a series like that in the works!

[@Plague_Doc22]

Really want to see you guys cover ASKET. They're super transparent with their production and traceability. And their stuff is meant to be really high quality.

[@Shiftfashiongroup]

We'll add it to the list!

Another great video

[@Shiftfashiongroup]

Thanks again!

​@@Shiftfashiongroup thank you, this channel is fantastic. Your explanations are excellent. I worked at Warehouse One in my 20s as a designer and went on some buying trips with the merchandise team. Then entered other areas of work. This is very inspiring and educational. Thank you.

[@sergeyivanov8788]

Please a Loro Piana tee, so interesting to see if there are any differences in quality and workmanship compared to other premium brands

[@Shiftfashiongroup]

It's on the list!

Im curious about the flint and tinder tee made in usa by huckberry

[@celestial5556]

Amazing video! I’m interested in how much a Prada shirt would cost. Also do you know any brands with this good quality for a lot cheaper?

[@Shiftfashiongroup]

We'll find out together!

[@jollysingh3949]

Great video!

[@Shiftfashiongroup]

Thanks!

[@TrevorsLifeLessons]

Love your content man! Keep up the great work, you are such a professional. Respect 🫡

[@TheJosefin123456]

ok but how much did it cost?

[@hiromejia]

Very informative! Thank you for making this video! Just curious, is the $25 estimate just from the material and manufacturing cost? You mentioned that not every brand can/will be able to make it, so I think the craftsmanship, process, knowledge, etc. should be factored in the total “estimated cost”. (Please ignore if this was considered for the $25 estimate)

[@Shiftfashiongroup]

The experience of the factory is built into the cost of production. There is definitely additional development costs involved. But at the scale of larger brands its a relatively small portion of the cost. We have a really informative series coming soon on all of the other costs to run a brand!

[@grantbreezy5429]

Great video. Portugal seems to me manufacturing more and more mid tier designer brands.

[@Shiftfashiongroup]

There is a huge benefit for brands that are within the EU to save on Vat and duties!

[@vojtechokenka]

I absolutely love your content. Would love to see some deconstruction and breakdown of some high-end pants or jackets. From brands like Shadow Island, Acronym, Arc'Teryx, Tilak, C.P. Company, Nemen, GRAILZ, ... there's too many. I think you could really express your knowledge on that.

[@Shiftfashiongroup]

Appreciate the support! We have some items from those brands on our list!

[@Mugiwaraluffey]

What about testing Stone Island? That would be sick.

[@Shiftfashiongroup]

We have a pair of pants already in the lab!

[@BillHenry3]

Please do something from mastermind japan/world touts itself as extremely high quality luxury street wear

[@Shiftfashiongroup]

Great idea!

[@THEREALKAYO1]

Can you do hoodie next?

[@Shiftfashiongroup]

We have some hoodies in the lab!

[@5-indeutsch880]

Is the labor cost included in the cost to make??

[@Shiftfashiongroup]

Yes!

[@karbonaterol6969]

Ami Paris please 🙏

Cole buxton 👍🏻

Could you try stone island?

Yup! We have a pair of pants already in the lab!

[@run_xuan]

@@Shiftfashiongroup glad to hear, thank you :)

[@trianglesfalling]

Do you take into account the labor costs? I’m thinking that maybe acne is paying a more for that than say zara

[@Shiftfashiongroup]

Yup! This is what it would cost us to produce this garment in Portugal utilizing our network of factories!

[@Mario-fn4lt]

could you test REPRESENT?

[@Shiftfashiongroup]

It's on the list!

[@ThorbenSauermann]

Awesome channel, too many cuts in the vid tho

[@Shiftfashiongroup]

Appreciate the feedback! We are improving every video!

[@THEREALKAYO1]

25$ tshirt acne studios lol ofcourse its not worth 310 - 400$

[@Shiftfashiongroup]

That's just the cost to make! There are alot of other aspects to building a brand! We are planning some great content around this!

[@TheJosefin123456]

aha 20-25

[@darklustgamingchannel4535]

Imagine paying $300 for a T worth no more than $30

[@Shiftfashiongroup]

Sometimes there just a cost to self expression! There are definitely cheaper options as as well!

[@darklustgamingchannel4535]

@@Shiftfashiongroup i hear that!

[@BigFatSeal10]

Amazing videos man! Please do something from Stone Island, I think they are great quality

[@Ar-ob1gz]

That little logo lost in the middle of the ocean kills the tshirt for me. I’d remove it.
