[filth]

[simma]

went last night around 7. still had lots of selections/sizes. only 2-3 other people in there with me. bought a reigning champ hoody for 50, and a wings + horns long sleeve for 30.

[unit]

i ransacked it on friday and saturday at opening
prob not much good stuff now.. all the w+h good stuff is long gone.

[Spaceship_coupe]

Just got back from it...Not much selection left. :( Damn work!

[LC21]

[sonick]

fk yea, picked up a black tiger fleece hoodie.

[unit]

was it an actual tiger fleece? i noticed this yr the ones they had were very thin, not like the usual thick tiger fleece. i got 2 anyway.

[Ilagon]

I ended up getting two longsleeve shirts, a pair of jeans, and these bad boys:

Not sure, probably the thinner one; I've never had the old tiger fleece.

OMFG those boots are nuts! How much and what day did you go?

[bcedhk]

i got myself some W+H goods too. They had last years grey tiger fleeces with riri zips.

saw some guy buy like 10 of them, fucing re-seller

[Not really racist!]

more pics!

wish i went :(

[rickross888]

sick boots wish i went too. fucking exams!

[unit]

you must have been first in line to get those boots.
how much did they mark off? retail was like 6-700?

[Ilagon]

I actually got them on Saturday. Didn't know they were selling them there because I went on Friday as well and they were never displayed. When I waited in line on Saturday, I was talking to Lars (employee) and he said there was one pair left. Once I got in, I asked Rob (owner) if they still had them and he grabbed them from the back room. He said that they are technically not allowed to sell them because they are still being sold in store. I got them for 450 and retail was 798!!

What is CYC's affiliation with ALIFE, are they a canadian distributor or something? Or the actual manufacturer as they are with W+H?

[bcedhk]

i believe CYC produces the blanks for big fashion brands like supreme , alife, and W+H.

[sonick]

Oh, I always thought that CYC was the designer/manufacturer of W+H and Spruce? As Alife and Supreme are NY based, aren't they?

[_inwonderland]

Ilagon, what size are the boots?

[Ilagon]

Ilagon, what size are the boots?

They're 8.5.

[Ilagon]

I think the ones I got were from last year? Mine are full grain leather and I think this season's suede and brown leather IIRC.

[unit]

they are, but if you look at supreme clothes, they are made in canada.

[bcedhk]

all the stuff from this CYC was last year stuff. same witha ll the boots.

their boxing day sale will have items for this season's products, but price will usually be higher

fuckk youuuuuuuu!!!!!!! im killin for these, but i cant bring myself to pay $700 for them :(


edit: and they are my size...

[essel]

Sorry for the bump, but anyone know if there's going to be another CYC sample sale this year?

[blazingazn]

i want to know also.

[bcedhk]

i dont think so? last years and previous years was around this time. maybe they delaying it this year cause R G just got a new store going?

[essel]

Is there anywhere I could get email notifications for when they are having the sale? Their site doesn't seem to have anything.

[filth]

it would only make sense for them to have one if they have a shit load of samples and products that didn't pass the quality standards or whatever.

[sonick]

Ask and ye shall receive, bitches:

It is again time for our annual pre-Christmas sale. We have expanded to two locations right next to each other. Looking forward to seeing you all at the sale!

Date and time: Nov 25th – 28th, noon till 7pm (5pm on 28th)
Location: 188 & 196 W. 6th Avenue, Vancouver, BC

Cash Only Please

[Energy]

Now that this is on revscene I wonder if it'll be busier than usual. Gonna spend a shit ton of money tomorrow if they have good stuff.

[essel]

Niceeeee. You think there'll still be decent amount of selections if I go on the 26th? (2nd day of sale)

[sonick]

They should, in the past they didn't put out all the stock at once on the first day but replenish with new stock when it runs low.

[bcedhk]

oh thats good.

usually if u want the most products you will be lining up a few hours in advance. but they usually restock during random hours.

hopefullly less people this year due to the weather. :D

I remember the first year they had it in 2008, opening day it snowed a crapload the night before and they didn't even open! I was the only one outside waiting for the sale lol.

[essel]

Yeah let's hope so. Looking to grab a warmer jacket and a couple sweaters

[bcedhk]

haha ya, i was there too in 2008.

last year there were so much resellers grabbing all the tiger fleeces to sell on Styleforums

[unit]

fucking hate resellers.... dont do it...

also, shhhhhhh.... lets not talk about this anymore ;)

[bcedhk]

a bit too late. tons of people use ilovesampelsales.. as a matter of fact, lots of random people... last year there were tons of middle age dudes lining up and asking us "what kinda clothing do they sell??"

FUUUUuuuuuuuu

[filth]

fuuuu thats why i didnt post in here. SMFH

[filth]

[filth]

[JordanLee]

Managed to get 1 thermal tiger fleece. One grey and one black thick hoodie. 1 thin Terry cloth grey/black hoodie. Grey cardigan. Oxford longsleeve and like a bunch of random tees and blankets as gifts. Lined up since 11 on opening day and was the first ones let in. So worth braving the snow.

[justYU]

I want a tiger fleece hoodie, went twice and they didn't have my size (large).

[bcedhk]

i dont get why people get those 60$ blankets.

oh the hype.

[Farfetched]

some of the things w+h are putting out now are almost cringe worthy.

[G]

I'm not familiar with W+H..how are the prices?

[bcedhk]

they are a premium clothing store. can range from 100 to $1000 for their items.

simple, good quality, but overpriced.

[filth]

idgaf, blankets are swag as fuck. when you got a bitch feelin dat tiger fleece. Instant panty dropper.

[hongy]

^^ Word my ex loved that shit

[Lolkai]

LOL i kept one in the back of my car and it was useful indeed....

[Spaceship_coupe]

[filth]

damn baller, that must be like 400 dollars worth

i wish i got all that for $400, even with the dirt cheap prices i still ended up spending around $750+

the tiger fleeces are a S and M, they're gifts.

[unit]

if any of you got stuff for the purpose of reselling, gfy

[Spaceship_coupe]

Nice buys filth! I got a few items, but not too much because I went on Thursday night after work. Selection was ok, but they didn't have too many small sizes left. I was able to get a black chambray parka, a cardigan, t shirt and a tie.

[ek-nine]

i wanted that polartec hoodie so bad.. all S's ... damn it!

just wondering, when'd you go?

missed that hoodie while i was there, might go back tmrw and check it out.

[RESN]

no tiger fleeces left. Wasnt much left at W+H but I went over to Alife & Reigning Champ side to pick up a few sweaters and tee shirts. Didnt want to leave empty handed :D they have buy 1 get 1 free at Alife& Reigning Champ right now

[Okami]

how much are one of these tiger fleece hoodies

[RESN]

^they were $65 but all gone :(

[essel]

^ Wait so at RC you buy 1 hoodie for $40 you get another free?

[RESN]

yep at RC only :)

[essel]

:fuuuuu: I bought a couple hoodies and tees at RC on Thursday and they didn't have that special going on. Did you go today? Any hoodies left? I think I might go

[RESN]

ya i just came back this morning. They only had the deal today because its the last day :rofl:

Unfortunately I havent been to the sale on the other days so I couldn't tell you how the selection is today compared to Thursday. They didn't have many Smalls and Mediums left from what I remember. but CYC is known to stock throughout the day.

[Farfetched]

picked up a couple of button downs that didn't quite fit right. anyone want them for however much they were at the sale?

[filth]

the tiger fleece hoodies were are gifts, everything i bought i was planning to keep. The only thing im not sure about is the chambray parka so i MIGHT sell that. Ill see when spring time comes.

chambray parka size small? trade me bro

[Energy]

Lesson learned for next year: go very early on first day to get good stuff.

I got there at 12noon on the first day and had to wait in line for 40 mins to get inside. And lots of stuff were gone by then too.

[Spaceship_coupe]

chambray parka size small? trade me bro

Yes I have it in size small, but no go on the trade as I already have a grey one.
