XO The RepTherapy Mod-Team 💙

Since the Cart!er sale with Doris is still going strong, I thought I’d share my experience with this watch!

I bought my two-tone about 6 months ago through a watch TS (Andiot who is on the Reptime TS list), and honestly—it has held up really well. I wear it a lot and still really enjoy it. The overall quality feels solid, and it’s been a great everyday piece.

Gold can always be a bit tricky with reps (too yellow, too red 😅), but I think the rose gold on mine is actually quite nice and pretty close to real 18k RG. The watch itself is maybe a tiny bit shinier than auth, but let’s be real—most people wouldn’t notice unless they’re really looking.

Overall, I’m super happy with it and have even been thinking about getting another one in white gold 👀

I also received a bracelet yesterday from Osamu—it’s nice, not the best rep ever, but it definitely does the job and pairs well enough.

And… I may have gone a little extra 🙈 I ordered an 18k RG version with diamonds of the JUC when gold prices were lower. At least now I know my size is right! Can’t wait for that one to arrive, I feel like it’s going to be such a special piece ✨

Anyone else taking advantage of the Cart!er sale right now? 👀

Here to share my beautiful Ochre P9 PSP! I thought I’d never go for a P9 but here I am ordering one and I even stepped out of my comfort zone of black and neutral bags to get this beauty 😂 Can’t wait to receive it soon!

Huge shoutout to u/Teliyah66 for putting up with my indecisiveness and helping me with my qc, thank youuu 💕🫶🏼

Thought I’d share the PSP I got for the limited edition Blueberry Purple from Afen Factory 🥰😍 I can’t wait to get it in hand.

✨ Hello, shoe lovers!

Today, I am not working and I was tidying up my shoe wardrobe, so I thought: why not take some photos and show you some of my rep shoe collection? 

Want to talk about rep shoes? Grab a chair ☺️

This isn’t a “standard” review: I am showcasing items purchased over several months and multiple orders, for me and my husband. I don’t have most of my PSP photos anymore as I wiped my phone when I got my new one (and lost my WA history!).

So take this as it is: a completely subjective account of 9 months spent in “higher tier” rep shoe-land with my favourite shoe seller, Cindy. 

DISCLAIMER: 

• This post is focused on shoes I purchased from Cindy - Cindy is not a TS on this sub, and I am not referring to her as a TS. She’s a seller I personally use and trust, but I am only one person on the internet. Do your own due diligence. 
• I purchased shoes from other sellers as well, and you can see my reviews for those in various subs.
• Photos are all mine - the last two photos are from an older review, but I wanted to add them all to the post here.

TRANSPARENCY: 

• I am not getting any incentives or discounts for this post. For full transparency, Cindy is aware that I post about my purchases on Reddit (I tell all my sellers about it)

A bit about me:

👢 As much as I love bags, shoes are my thing. I have been buying designer shoes since my foot stopped growing, thanks to my mother, who is obsessed with designer footwear. Cosmic joke, we don’t share a shoe size 😭 

👠 I own over 120 pairs of shoes, from trainers to 6inch heels, and everything in between. I spent more on my wedding shoes than on my wedding dress. I don’t buy any clothes unless I can properly match them to shoes. I build my outfits accessories-first. 

🇮🇹 Last but not least: I’m Italian, and we LOVE leather goods. We’re a nation obsessed with a good shoe. 

🛍️ This just to say, to quote Carrie Bradshaw:

“Men, I may not know. But shoes… shoes, I know!”

And just like Carrie Bradshaw, I spent way too much money on designer shoes in my life. No regrets… until I discovered rep shoes. 

Now the boutiques will never see me again. 

I no longer see a reason to spend $1000 on a pair of shoes when I can get 90% of the way there by spending $150.

Buying rep shoes:

From the messages and comments I get, I can see that a lot of folks are intimidated about getting in the rep shoe game. 

I totally get it! So much can go wrong when you can’t try the shoe on. The shoes can be too big, too small, too narrow, etc. It's a lot easier to deal with a bag that's not perfect. Shoes either fit, or they don't.

There's also horror stories of people wearing their rep shoes in the rain and the shoes “melting” like a cartoon witch. BTW let me reassure you on that… I live in a country with 260 days of rain a year. My shoes are fine. 

⁉️ I can’t guarantee all rep shoes you buy will be a perfect fit, or good quality, but there are things you can do to reduce the likelihood of a problem:

• Don’t trust ANY sizing charts
• Trace the outline of your feet with a pencil on a piece of paper. 
• Measure that with a ruler ( length and width) 
• Do this for both feet 
• Give the seller your actual foot size in CM

 

💶 A note on prices: don’t buy rep shoes on DHG for 20 dollars and expect them to be good quality. Set your expectations to go with the prices. You don't expect all rep bags to be created equal, so don't expect great shoes for cheap prices.

🎀 You also need a seller that will care about the shoe fit. I bought shoes with a few sellers ( you can see my other reviews around in different subs ) and I have no complaints, but the shoes I got from Cindy fit better than the others. 

Why?

- When I was placing my first order, she asked me for a trace of my foot done with pen and paper, and to provide length and width measurements. That’s where I got that trick. 

- After I received my first order, she asked me about the fit, to potentially adjust for future orders. Over my orders, she asked me to compare the fit of the different shoes I bought from her to figure out the best fit for the next pair. That’s service that I’ve only come to expect from her for shoes, and that’s why she’s my shoe queen 👑 

Now to the part you’re all interested in: actual shoes, prices I paid, and mini-reviews!

Note:
- these are (some of) my shoes from Cindy, and my husband’s. 
- Cindy’s prices include shipping, gift boxes, shopping bags, dust bags and certs. Prices in $. 

M*u M*u biker boots: 160

Honestly the most comfortable pair of boots I have ever owned. And like I said, I owned and own a lot of boots 😛 The leather is outstanding. Buttery soft feel, slouchy look. They smell like a tannery in the best way. 10/10. I would walk into a MM store and have a SA handle these with no fear. 

M*u M*u penny loafer: 150 

How I love these. They are so chic and comfy. I actually compared them to auth in store and I couldn’t clock them. 10/10 

GG men’s sneaker: 150 

I own a few auth GG and I can’t fault these! Only note from my husband is that he wishes he had sized up to wear with a thick sock. We sized up for his second pair. 9/10
PS I also own rep GG for myself and I paid 135 - 150 may be for the bigger sizes

CL men’s sneaker: 175 

These are really impressive. Nobody does CL like Cindy imho. Look at that sole ❤️ my husband finds them super comfy. 9.5/10 

P*ada shearling sneaker: 150 

Like a hug for your feet 🧸 they are so cozy and soft. It’s a pretty solid rep, I’d give it 8/10. There are a couple of minor callouts, but anybody looking at my feet that closely may need to pay 🤣

CL suede ankle boot: 175

My first rep CL from Cindy! I love them so much. They're solid. The red sole is a 98% match to auth, and they are comfy to walk in. The right boot buckle clicks a little but nothing serious. 8.5/10 (please note this price is from last year, I can't confirm it's still the right price)

GG sneakers: 135

Love love love them. Auth GG has lost my business forever. I wear these all the time and they are still perfect. 10/10

👸 Opinion on seller: it’s already clear from my post, but I love working with Cindy for my shoes.

She is clear with pricing and with quality, quick to address concerns, extremely focused on ensuring she gets the right fit for you.

She sends the best PSPs, including videos. I always ask her for more because I want to see all details, and she obliges and sends me so many videos 🤣 I literally have a 2 min video of somebody pulling a zipper up and down because I wanted to see it. 

🎁 I also love getting a Cindy package: it’s a different experience because you get to unbox the shoe, and it feels like a gift 🤣 

📬 Don’t ask me how she manages to get these boxes to me with no issues. It’s a kind of magic, and I don't question it.

With that said, her prices aren’t the lowest and you can definitely find good rep shoes for cheaper prices. For me, when I care about the shoe being as close to auth as possible, she’s my first and only stop. But I shop around, like I do for bags. I’m in a polyamorous relationship with all my sellers 🤣

Before I sign off, an important reminder: this is my own personal experience. You need to vet sellers on your own. 

Well moderated subs like this give you access to vetted sellers. And if you’re new to this game, start with vetted sellers, do your own research, ask questions and pick sellers based on what is important to you. 

💌 I hope this was informative and useful, and I’m happy to answer more questions on shoe reps! 

I am getting to the point of my rep journey where I want to try and educate folks and share some of the tips I've learned. I have a long way to go for bags still, but hopefully I can help people dip their toe (get it?) into shoe reps.

🚨MING HAS A SALE GOING ON!! $10 OFF ALL GUCCI BAGS IF YOU SEND HIM A “🐰” FOR THE MONTH OF APRIL ONLY. That does NOT include the bag I am reviewing; as the price already reflects the discount!! 🚨

This bag does even not need a full review. It speaks for itself. It is perfect in every way. I went through four different factories and spent several weeks back & forth with Ming trying to find the best possible match for the texture of this leather. Poor guy had to send back three bags before I finally gave him the green light on this one, lol.

The leather on the Marmont tote is a soft, crinkled nappa and it is not easy to get right. It cannot be too puffy, too flat, or too smooth. It has this very specific crinkled, glossy texture while still staying soft and squishy. I am such a stickler about texture details. You guys already saw how insane I was over my LV Crinkled 20 a couple months back because so many factories rolled out dog shit versions of it. This bag was kinda the same situation; it’s either dead on or it’s wrong.

The weight, shape, texture, stitching, alignment, smell, shoulder drop, and overall look of this bag would fool absolutely anyone. Even the SAs at Gucci. Ask me how I know, lmao. I may or may not have brought this into the store.

I also really love that this bag clips together and you can make it a smaller profile! Similiar to the YSL totes but without having to tie any annoying strings together! Same kinda shape!

Needless to say, it’s the first tote I’ve ever owned and I love it to fucking death. It’s the perfect bag for someone of my size (5’3” 105lb for reference in the mod shots) because neverfulls are way too big and the size large of this bag swallows me. To compare; it’s pretty much the same size as a speedy 30! I’m never going to rehome this bag, lol. I am keeping this one forever. Definitely a staple piece for anyone who loves black bags and that’s especially true for you alt and goth girls like me! You’ll love this too. 👹

SELLER DETAILS:

Ming: +86 159 2088 9883

The OG Gucci king, at least for me as a buyer lol. Every single one I have picked up from him has been rock solid. Hats off to Ming once again for coming through with a dope bag, and for dealing with me having him run back and forth to the factories to exchange the bags out a bunch of times.

BAG PRICE:

$279 shipped to the USA via FedEx. Originally $289. Ming is giving all of us a discount as mentioned above!

Hello! I’m looking at purchasing a KATE YSL from BaoBao.

She’s recommending to go with MF factory over Black Frame. Has anyone heard of MF ?

Need some advice! Thank you!

Has anyone here ever ordered a vintage CF from her or used her generally as a seller?

https://moon.wecatalog.cc

I got my PSPs from her Thursday and haven’t heard from her since and can’t tell if that’s normal. I attributed some delay in response to the QingMing festival, and sent a second message yesterday night but feeling a little anxious now since I still haven’t heard back from her

Been sitting on this for a few days before posting because I wanted to actually use it a bit and see how it feels day to day.

First impression out of the box it just looks right. The caviar leather has that grainy texture that catches light nicely without looking plasticky. It’s not overly shiny or flat, somewhere in between which I personally prefer. Structure is firm, holds shape well even when empty, and the flap alignment is clean.

The stitching is consistent throughout, nothing messy or rushed. Edges are neat. The chain has a good weight to it, not too light and not overly loud. Hardware tone leans more subtle gold, not that super yellow type, which I was hoping for.

What stood out to me is that nothing about it screams “rep” when you’re holding it. It’s one of those pieces that feels put together properly. Even small details like how the flap sits and closes feel smooth.

Inside is clean as well, no weird smell or glue issues. Been using it casually and it’s holding up nicely so far.

Overall, I’d say it matched what I was shown before shipping, which honestly doesn’t always happen. This one actually delivered on expectations.

Hi everyone!

I’d really appreciate some help QC’ing my Ch@nel bag. I reached out to my seller for a mini flap in burgundy lambskin and she sent me PSPs just now, but I’m not sure what to look for!

A couple of things I’m unsure about:

• The Shape

• Leather texture and stitching

• Quilting + alignment

Details:

• Factory: God

• Size: Mini 20 cm

• Colour: Burgundy

• Hardware: Silver

• Price: $360 incl shipping

Would love your thoughts please, is this a GL or RL? 🙏

Looking for the Gucci Ophidia Centennial tote bag. Any leads so appreciated!!

Hey guys, just received the PSPs for this Chanel jumbo (30cm) from the 187 factory through Hannah (WA: +8613286328054).

It’s caviar leather with 11–12 stitches. I paid $687 USD in total.

First impression, the shape looks clean and structured, stitching seems within the correct range, and the leather grain looks pretty decent for 187.

Nothing is immediately throwing me off, but I don’t want to rush it and miss something obvious. I would really appreciate some honest opinions before I go ahead and ship this.

Item: Loewe Flamenco in Burgundy (Medium)
Seller: Juliet
Factory (if known): Qiu / Qiutian / Autumn

Concerns / Things to Check: First time buying a rep bag and was really looking forward to getting my PSPs. But now that I have it I’m surprised that the gold chain is soooo yellow? I’ve read on the sub that so far the colour on all the burgundy reps for this bag have been a little off (on the darker side) so I was mentally prepared for it. But the chain just seems a bit tough to swallow.

The last two pics are of the bag in natural lighting on the seller’s balcony.

My Thoughts:

- Should I RL it? The seller seems a little passive aggressive saying that if I cannot accept the yellowish gold she can offer a refund. I do really want to own a good rep of this but what do the seasoned ppl of the sub think?

- How’s the rest of the bag - it seems pretty ok to me but I’m not sure if I’m overlooking any flaws by being hyper-fixated on the chain.

- Also what happens if I RL this bag - can I get her to resend another with a less yellow toned chain?

Hi ladies, I’m new to all the factories and TS so not sure who I should go with for this white small CF from 187. The quotes I got:

- Tina (4959): $570

- Maya (1443): $448

- Hannah (8054): $595

What were your experiences with these sellers? Is it normal that they all only accept Paypal F&F? Are there other sellers that I should consider?

This was my first order of a rep after a lot of research and reading others' experiences. I took the plunge and ordered from Louis.

Really clear communication all the way through and I adore the bag. Adore it. It's just started to slouch and the leather is butter soft.

Hi lovely group,

I’ve just received my first purchase from Mia. What do you think about the quality of this bag? She described it as “mirror quality,” but this is my first time buying, so I’d really appreciate your thoughts 🙏

Any input and help on QC my LV Soft Hobo! This part always makes me so nervous because I’m scared I’ll overlook something. From Wood Floor factory
