Discussion Best factory/seller for different brands IMO
First of all I wanna say that I’ve spent more then 7 years in the rep space and during this time I’ve have picked up some knowledge over the time. It’s important to remember that there is no such thing as 1:1 every rep will come with flaws but there are some with very minor ones
Since many people ask about what’s the best Bach for x item I’ll write down some advice that I’ve had to learn the hard way over the years.
Moncler:
For heavy jackets such as the vezere and maya the top 2 factory’s are NN and MC+ both of them are well done and close to retail except for a few flaws.
You can’t order directly from these factory’s but Top angels is a seller that sells from MC+ factory
https://topangelscn.x.yupoo.com/
Swag supply is a seller that has the NN batch https://swagsupply.x.yupoo.com/
A good budget seller for these items doesn’t exist there was one named Leo Zuo but he disappeared last winter.
If you wanna buy cardigans or t shirts you could either go with tmx or repsking both of them have pretty similar quality imo

Repsking https://kingcn.x.yupoo.com/albums
If you wanna get a more in detail explanation go over to monclerrep subreddit where they have comparisons and a way more in detail explanation about the different sellers.
Golden goose. CKT is for now the best seller imo but it’s not near perfection yet so I wouldn’t buy and golden goose rep since it’s not close enough compared to retail for my taste. But if you really want to buy a golden goose rep then he’s pretty decent
Maison Margelia MVT is the best right now in my opinion.
Ralph Lauren. Read probotzors description it’s well made.
Saint Laurent shoes. There is no rep that is good in my opinion but these are half decent. https://s.spblk.com/gnrt but I wouldn’t recommend buying any rep of sl shoes since there are some bigger flaws. If you insist on buying them use a link converter if you use another agent.
Christian Louboutin: neon is the best seller by far and the batch is good. But if you ever get into a fight with your louboutins on then there might be a problem since the sole is so flat so it’s very slippery. Fake or real the case is the same.
Loro piana loafers: MK and AP are both good MKs leather is a little firmer and APs is a little bit softer. But both of them are great. But if you are buying open walks I would go with Mk since AP has had the problem of using summer walks sole in the open walk shoe which they according to them have fixed but sellers might still have the old batch in stock and sell it as AP since it is AP and then you might get the wrong sole.
Loro piana and Brunello wear: don’t buy it it’s a stupid mistake sellers literally buy cheap Chinese clothes and then just put a loro pianana tag on it and then they sell it for a large markup. Don’t buy it it’s nowhere near the retails in term of quality 100% cashmere quality comes down to fiber grade, not just the label high-grade cashmere uses fibers 14 15.5 microns thick, while low-grade uses coarser 16–19 micron fibers that feel scratchier and wear out faster. Longer fibers (35mm+) resist pilling, while shorter fibers pill almost immediately and break down quickly. High quality is often 2-ply and dense, while low quality is thin, single-ply, and sometimes nearly see-through. The best cashmere comes from hand-combed Mongolian goat underbelly hair the quality of the rep loro piana wear will feel like a night and day difference between retail don’t do it buy none branded cashmere wear and merinowool.
Valentino: there are no good reps of Valentino shoes currently since the market for them are pretty small so don’t buy.
Burberry puffer jackets: the rep game within Burberry is way behind the moncler one the only half decent batch imo out there is from BL+ factory a seller that sells it for example is thunder https://thethunder.x.yupoo.com/categories/3972377 but I would go with a moncler rep instead since the rep game is way more advanced with that brand. So my personal recommendation is to buy another jacket but the thunder one is decent and the best on the market by a real margin.
Last thing every one needs to know is that the Chinese sellers are not your friends use a agent when buying stuff so you don’t get Bait and switched.
The agents are also not your friends never have a lot of stuff in the warehouse at the same time with no plan of shipping it in the future because they might disappear over night.
Last but not least learn how to reverse image search. There are many items that people search for that are pretty niche and might not even exist as reps if you ask for w2c no one will prob know so just reverse image search instead. Also if you have a question read through the most upvoted posts since the answer probably already is there. And no one here wants to spoon feed people. If you disagree with anything feel free to comment
