I've accepted that Essentials is basically a Jerry Lorenzo merch line at this point 😂 I picked up some of the lavender pieces and the color looks great IRL. I also got the amber Homecoming hoodie because it reminded me of Beyonce's Coachella performance 😅
@kaybasquiat thanks bro that means a lot 🙏🏽 I know people work hard and sometimes save up to get these items, so I want to be as transparent as possible for these reviews
I picked up the Amber heavy shirt, Amber crew shirt, woodland camo field pant and black heavy fleece relaxed pant. All fit perfect. The material feels very premium.
all great stuff! If i can add, you should try some of the women's cropped items. I'm 5'11' at 210 pounds with a more athletic/bulky build and I bought the lavendar vneck cropped hoodie with the wrestling text on it in a XL and I love it. Playing with proportions as a guy giving me more style inspiration than your normal hoodie and sweats, I find that the "women's" clothing just looks good. Also it makes me think outside the box of what the original intention was for these pieces. I find that anyone who complains (not you) about how Essentials is the same thing over and over again, never gives the new items a try. I've bought the cropped muscle tee (women's), the Cropped hoodie (women's), and the sweater vests and all i've ever gotten were compliments on how I style it.
@ChrisGabeEnd02 I appreciate the suggestion! I never shy away from the women's section but should start incorporating it for my Essentials reviews. Especially the cropped pieces since I am on the shorter side
@@Its_Sheroy yeah I think it would definitely look great! Especially since most of those pieces never actually hit Nordstrom, SSENSE, or PacSun they become a bit more unique in my mind. If you wear high waisted pants and follow the rule of thirds it will definitely make you look taller. Again I’m 5’11” and I swear doing that makes it look like I’m 3 inches taller.
SSense even jacked up the prices for another 10 to 15% this time, comparing to the US pricing. Zip up hoodies were CAD 260 plus tax. I bought 1 anyways. Would have bought 2 if they were cheaper, like below CAD 200. 😂
I'm a big fan of what Essentials is cooking with these drops. Got a couple hoodies and crewnecks. I got black, olive, military, and crimson from the latest drop. Might pick up lavender too looks dope. You think the bonded nylon field pants will be restocked anywhere? Pissed I didn't cop when I had the chance
@AKhan.28 glad you found a collection that you like. Usually essentials isn't known to restock you might have to buy resell or wait for 2nd hand pairs to circulate to get a deal
@shefwbandz you have similar dimensions to the ssense models and they wear Medium. If you like the look on them I'd stick to M but if you want slimmer go Small
@jaelonjones3745 if you are looking for a thick sweater for the winter than yes but if you want something you can reuse all year go with the regular hoodie
L collection tbh. Especially as a european where the collection costs a shit ton of money and is uniqlo/h&m quality with some teen prints on it. Pass Great review/content tho! Very informative
This is how I know Jerry is a terrible businessman. The line is for a "younger audience," but what college freshman has 200$ to spend on a single shirt or hoodie? SMH. You do this to yourself, jerry.
