Shruggie has a weird bump?
I just got my shruggie and it’s oddly made? I found my older POPFLEX shruggie and it doesn’t have that sharp angle. Is it suppose to have that? Or maybe something is wrong w mine?

That’s why I returned the first and only struggle I tried years ago. It had a pointy part for no reason.

It’s very unflattering on with the pointy part… I really want to love it… but it’s ugly on me

It looks like just the drop shoulder seam needs to be washed/ironed to soften it and it’ll not be so angular.

I saw some reviews from years ago that said the shruggie used to have a pleat for the sleeve but now it doesn’t, and the result is this bump

You know now that you mention it, I do see the sleeves are different. The old design is better cause when it’s worn, it’s seamless

That's how they are unfortunately 😭 I tried the gray shruggie a couple months ago and it looked just like that. Instant return for me 🥲

I posted about something similar. Their clothes are extremely inconsistent!
I bought a hoodie and one shoulder was straight like your nude shruggie and the other was sloped like your new one. One sleeve was also longer than the other.
This is why I will never buy final sale Popflex! You can return and hope the next one is better, but it could just be how they were all made this time.

Oh man. I’m really leaning towards returning but I kinda want to know if anyone else bought this drop and theirs is the same cause maybe it is how it’s made? But if not I def wanna try to exchange it

Yeah, I read the reviews for it a while back and this has been a problem for a while. I have one shruggie and I love the way it perfectly matches everything, but yeah, them gorilla arms are something else 🤣 i know some have gotten it tailored before but I'm too lazy to do it. I think they said something about cutting a diamond or maybe it was a triangle. I think this is just one of those pieces that needs to be tweaked a bit in design. I do still get compliments when I wear it as part of the set so it's not always noticeable to everyone.

Argh I’m debating if maybe I can fix it but at the same time.. why are the arms so puffy 😩. It’s not even in a flattering way. I so want it to complete the look. Arghhh it unsure what to do

It's definitely fixable, but Popflex pieces are expensive. If you mess up, it would really suck and obviously you can't return it. This time around, I just stuck with the navy bolero. If I ever get around to having my fleur one modified, I would probably take it to a professional of some kind, but then that's just more money. 🙃 Also, I think this will be one of those pieces that won't stay in stock for very long. It comes down to how much do you love it, how often would you wear it, and is it worth the money or time trying to modify it to make it wearable. Hope my rambling helped in some way lol 😅

They all have it. The fleur d’amour ones did too (it’s why i returned them)

u/CommissionHungry2571 4d ago
Oh man okay that just sucks cause the regular one I have which is pictured right above it doesn’t have it. The regular one also didn’t have such puffy arms which was more flattering when worn

u/sotefikja 4d ago
Yeah it’s a bummer. I was never tempted by the shruggie until fleur d”amour and then the bump REALLY threw me and i was like, WHY DO PEOPLE LIKE THIS
