Fake London Genius jeans - are these seconds?

CD · 09-30-2005, 09:59 PM

Just got a pair of FLG jeans. The pockets are stitched up so I can't put my hand in to the bottom of the pocket (no jokes!). It is a curved line of stitching. I wasn't sure if they are seconds, or were ment to be like that - similar to suit jackets where the pockets are sewn up to keep the suit's shape and then your ment to undo the stitching once you have brouht it. Anyone help, are these seconds? Weren't bought of ebay or nothing like that, they were from a reputable retailer. I'd like to hear from you if you have FLG jeans- cheers!

bought a pair of fake london genius 2 years back from yoox and the pockets werent stitched like you described. sounds an odd one. which retailer did you buy them from? it might be worth asking them for an explanation? Or send flg an email at info@fakelondongenius.com or visit www.fakelondongenius.com for a phone contact. let us know what they say.

Got them from Yoox 1st time I have shopped there - thats why i questioned if seconds! I had already questionned four marketing (before posting this. And as I had said in another thread about stone island & 4 marketing - their response was f**king crap! Didn't say how FLG jean's pockets are - if stitched up, they didn't wanna know! Have got ordered another pair from Yoox to see if they are the same. I also asked Yoox and here is the response :

"We are sorry for the jeans you have received. At YOOX, we are committed to selling only first-quality, genuine designer fashions and accessories. We do not sell factory seconds, irregulars, or special-ordered lower quality products. At YOOX, we offer only the best brand names and the highest quality goods. To that end, we employ several quality checks before an item leaves our warehouse. If you have received a damaged or defective item, please follow the Returns & Refunds procedure: you will be refunded for the price of the item and for the shipping cost."

I think I will compare the newly ordered pair once they arrive - if not I may go off on a investigation to london to compare them to jeans in the stores - Selfridges still sell FLG?

owned 3 pairs of flg jeans. bought a pair 3 weeks ago and have never had or seen a pair of flg jeans with stitched up pockets. i think yoox buy all the old left overs from fourmarketing and other distributors so you probably got a pair of seconds as you say. what a downer and shame on fourmarketing for not giving you more help and advice.
