I had forgotten Mash!
Going there and Blackmarket as a green teenager were big experiences!

Lots of new Folk stuff on Vinted as well at the moment.

I think they are making stuff specifically for TK Maxx (a lot of brands do).

I’ve always thought that, the quality of most of the Folk stuff you get in there is shite compared to the proper stuff

Yeah it’s made for tk maxx! It all fits damn awful too. Tried a few bits on and nothing looked good

Always loads of Folk on Vinted, “new with tags” stuff. I wonder why?

Maybe it’s the TK Max gear

Good to know!

All made with much cheaper components - Ralph Lauren being the worst culprit. Folk, Edwin, Calvin Klein, Moschino, etc. I read somewhere that up to 40% of the stuff TKM stocks is ‘made to order’ specifically for them.

If you check the price tag, there is a code number ramging from 1-9 in tne right hand corner that tells you the item’s origin story.

1- it’s been made for them.
2 - unsold stock from another retailer/brand
5 - clearance item
7 - previous year’s stock
8 - genuine designer discount (iirc)
