Lets have a look at things i have got from Bandung. (Mostly Clothing)

Mentioned earlier its a shopping trip. So it will not be complete until i show what are the *fruits* that i have got from Bandung. heheh o.O

This pretty much looks like an advertorial but what i focus is the detail in a piece of garment produced.

I was asked, How do you actually determine the genuine-nity of that brand on the product. In other words, How do you know this is a real or fake Jeans?

Let me show u a series of Photos and you tell me weather its real or Fake? Ok
ITEM #1

Labelling is one of the most Important criteria in selling the brand name. This is the reason why they pay so much for the advertorial.
Everywhere you go, every magazine you flip and you came across such brand, then you will call it BRANDED? I suppose this should be the definition. Otherwise, how you actually classify a name as branded? Its because the tremendous amount they have paid for adverticement. And not forget about the rental at those High-Class place? Pavilion, High-Street One Utama, The Garden, KLCC. Everywhere -.-"


I took couple of close up pic with this particular jean because i think the detail artwork is something that you wont be able to see in any other pants. That's why you call it Limited Edition! But i still have doubt with the HAND-MADE statement.

For real, i don't know what is the exact price of this garment in the market. If you happen to encounter any then please do Let me know. K



If i am not mistaken the *G* logo was used to be in Red Colour. I suppose its more striking than this blue colour. Thats what Levis been doing all this while isn't it? (The Red Label)

I personally dont really like Levis because of the limitation to the design. Yes they do provide extensive range of sizes and cutting. But when it comes to design and Fashionable? I would still consider that as norm.


The rear Pocket is pre-washed with *worn-before* effect. The earthquake effect is just awesome. Love it so much. The colour is just unique and one of its kind.

For Business Purpose, i believe this is the only one piece available in the world.


Close-up of the Pocket which is sew with glitter thread that gives shinning effect. It actually looks much better in real. And the torn effect is just authentic.

On the other side, the front pocket is also pre-washed with the thunder effect. Hahahah. And also it comes with Crumple effect slightly below the pocket. The button label is rather simple.

Close-up of the button labelling. Whut do ya think about it?

This is how it looks from a distance away. I have no idea what word to describe the colour of this pants. Let's see, Greenish-Blue-ish-Jean-ish- Colour?

Yes, i understand that no matter how nice a pants can be, it is still Much depends on the person who wear it. u get what i mean? HEhehehh

Front view from a distance away. After all, i think such garments is not easy to Hand-Made it. If really there is a way. I would like to learn how these effect came about. That will be interesting.
Thunder, earthquake, crumple, torn, washed Effect all comes in a package. :P



Front different angle you get a different feel even thou its the same Damn thing.
Thats why people say, When look at a situation, try to look at it from different angle or point of view. Perhaps you will have different thought about it. Might be good Might be bad.
you decide.

Enuff for this and let me proceed faster with other piece.
Would you like to make a guess, How much i purchase this pants?

From what i observed, the price for the jeans in Any Authorised Guess outlet in Malaysia range from RM 399 to RM 599. Increase ALOT over the years. Last time you will still be able to see the 2XX number but now -.-"

And i surveyed in the Guess Outlet at Bandung Supermall. It actually cost 1.1 Mil RP to 1.5 Mil Rp. ( Exchange rate 10k = RM 3.60 ) You do the calculation!!


ITEM #2


Another Guess Product, but this is a short pants. Noticed in the picture above, the button labelling is very much different from the previous one. I Prefer this one more :D This one more stylo ler.. ( As if anyone will notice that -.-" )

This fabric has the mixture of Red thread and Usual Blue Jeans colour thread. But the Special thing about this is that, the red colour is rather hidden inside. It only serve as a Imaginary colour of what you will see.

Yes got red colour, but still you would much consider this pants is blue in colour. Weird.
If you have came across a paint that have two different colour at Different angle? Or in the occation when the cars was park sheltered and under the bright sun, will results in two different colour. Sounds very much like camouflage. :S YES this is what they trying to apply here in this garment.

This is pretty much what you will see from a distance away. This is obviously Not limited edition and not hand Made. Therefore, the design is much of the commercialize ones.

The unique part of it is the fact i like the fabric comes with red colour shadow. This is the rear view of the pants. If i am not mistaken, guess pants always emphazise on the design of back pocket. Changes from one season to another.

Back to the question how do you actually tell that this is real? Not all but often enough you will be able to find some labelling inside the pants. At the pocket, this is what you will find. (Picture above)

Another thing is the fact that, guess company always use the Zip from YKK company. Well, alot of Cheapo pants uses YKK as well. Why would i say a guess pants with YKK zip is consider the real or genuine ones. From years of observation, i would say guess have always been using zip from YKK.

If you wonder why is it YKK? What does it mean? Any why its so common?

Here some fact i could share with you.....

1. YKK is from Yoshida Manufacturing Company Owned by Yoshida Kogyo Kabushiki Kaisha

2. YKK produce over 1.5 Billion Zipper a year. More than the population in China!!

3.Its national Manufacturing Center is in Macon, Georgia.

Ok so much for that.

And Second Part of it i got 5 Shirts in total...

ITEM #3

This is the Logo T that i personally like it very much. The material is very soft and stretchable type. And due to this reason. EVEN THOU it is LARGE size, it still looks very small. Able to expand 1.5 times of its orginal size or more. I actually dont need such big size.

I like the material and the design is nice. I just can't resist to buy, knowing that I dont have a perfect body tone to wear such garment.

Close-up view of the Logo T.

Yet Another version of the Logo T.
Same Material, Different Design, Different Colour (obviously)
Could you tell anything from this label?
Close-up

So what does this hologram tell you about?

The matter of fact, this piece of clothing is sold at the price stated above. i have no idea why in the end it land at Indonesia. Maybe the manufacturing company at Indonesia trying very hard to convince people that this is genuine. There is no doubt on the quality of this shirt ok.

You could even find Armani there. WOW and the quality is no different from what you find in any of the outlet. I been to these places end up looking at the price but never actually but a single item. Because of OVER-Price! They marked up 10 times above the market price. How the hell on earth a person buy a t-shirt which will tear after 10 washes.

I have to say that the quality of the shirt from AX is just not durable. Its nice with all those design available. But the matter of concern is also the Worth for Money.

You wouldn't have to worry about this problem when it comes to Bandung. Or perhaps any other Indon Shopping heaven area.

IT looks as REAL as What you will see in Store! Perhaps this could be the real one. :D
Label here and there. Thats why you call it Logo T. Only difference is For Armani it cost Rm 150 Whereby for Giordano It cost Rm 19 :D Its still a Shirt.
I dont know what but Amani just sounds good to me. What does it actually mean?
According to Wikipedia Amani is an Arabic name meaning "wishes" or "aspirations". Not bad :D

DID i mention fruits from Bandung?

I have no idea how to relate Bandung with Avocado... But i can tell that THE AVOCADO SOLD there is emerald Green. As hard as rock. Its not ripe. When its time to consume the skin layer will turn somehow purplish. Something like Dark rotten purple colour. Heheh..

BUT FOR Avocado from bandung is exceptional. The skin turn purple slowly starting from the top then gradually gets to the bottom and eventually the whole thing changes into purple.

So time to Cut it into half and eat it with Brown sugar/ Sugar.

Supposingly, avocado should have taste like coconut (creammy) with the taste of *lemak* but this one is TASTELESS.. Omg.

I Think i have to make avocado salad with the remaining 3 that i brought back here.

Also just too late to take the picture of the pumpkin that was slaghtered yesterday. Its Orange in colour.. Very nice and Very fake.. I was told that usually orange pumpkin is used for Prayer.

I like the colour inside. :D
Gezzz Tasteless!!
