    I love to buy used clothes, top brands at a fraction of the cost and barely worn. Lots of online sites like that.

    Holly feck ..... I can someone please look at photo of my jacket and confirm if I follow in this bracket as I'm a tax payer and I only bought it because it went with my salomon trail runners ( that I wear around house and shops )

    What have I done!!!!

    Do you own a twin cam or a big rear wheel drive Vauxhall and listen to Nathan Carter?

    In fairness with Stone Island you can buy a Penney’s jumper and put the badge on. Similar if not better quality.

    Bull. I bought a Stone Island sweatshirt about 15 years ago in London and even today it's still in decent condition. It's been washed and worn loads and still looks absolutely fine with a nice pair of jeans.
    Penney's stuff would barely last a few washes and believe me I know this with 3 daughters who live in their clothes.

    I’m quite certain it’s nowhere near the same quality as Stone Island.

    Stone Island is usually very good quality. I have to confess I have a replica and a retail of a stone island hoodie, I cannot tell the difference, both excellent quality, both washed a bunch of times and look brand new.

    Never heard of this shop - but knowing geese maybe a flock of Canada Geese could be used a security - they are aggressive, loud and rather intimidating when together in a group.


    ...just like this shop's purported clients lol! :D

    Most young men wear trainers, hoodies,tracksuits etc so how do you know someone is a scumbag.i don,t understand anyone wearing trainers
    without socks in the winter.
    its like saying any woman who wears jeans is a lesbian.
    every shop has a problem with shoplifters .
    I would hope theres no crowded venues in the middle of a pandemic,
    depends where you live, are you paying rent,
    rents are alot higher than they were in 2000.All concert venues and clubs are closed at the moment .

    I doubt many of the toerags that buy them can afford them either.

    Likely spending outside their means.

    North face jacket + Grey tracksuit bottoms + Nike air with no socks is without a doubt the worst period of fashion in the history of men’s clothing. Even Prince William would look like a scumbag in that clobber.

    PETA ?

    they sell outrage and buy ads. They don't spend as much on feeding our housing animals.

    BBC had a documentary on Iceland. The lads collect the down off the nests and if there's any abandoned eggs they raise by hand.

    Yup yup boyiz Canada Goose fuk da Garda yup yup, and so forth.

    As outlined previously, these jackets are an invaluable means of picking out scrote bags from a thousand paces.

    If Canada Goose have any sort of nous they will start making a range of trousers specially designed to accommodate ankle tracking devices.

    young guy I worked with in a spar had one that on first glance looked the real thing but the logo said “Cananda goose” - he didn’t like ppl noticing that.

    Why what is it supposed to say on the logo? Or do you mean the fake one's have a capital C & that's how you can tell the difference?

    ....…

    I'm not being sarcastic. The poster said his colleague had a coat with "Canada goose" wrote on it & the wearer didn't like that being pointed out. I was asking what is the logo supposed to say. I've never seen one up close so I'm not sure whats wrong with "Canada goose"



    Edit: oh I just noticed now sorry lol

    There's no smoke without fire. And it is essentially fur trade. It's surely unethical.

    Im all for animal welfare but this opinion puff piece is written so poorly and without evidence I can only presume it was written by a complete and utter moron.

    Have a read again. Canada was spelled wrong in the fake version he has. It says “Cananda”

    Haven't seen much Stone Island in Ireland over the years
    Even when I was more into clothes it was more seen with Dublin Whackers

    Nah, Parka jacket (coat) is the way to go.

    Only €30 or €40, great heat for the winter months.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,757 ✭✭✭s8n


    There’s lots of fake versions of Canada goose being sold the last few years

    There was a place on Moore st selling knock off versions of Canada goose and north face - it was near the French bakery place.

    young guy I worked with in a spar had one that on first glance looked the real thing but the logo said “Cananda goose” - he didn’t like ppl noticing that.

    please share which Spar so we can go in and wind him up
