Re: Number (N)ine



Im still dying to find this knit long cardigan.. hasn't appeared in Hong Kong yet... (sorry for the crappy quality of the scans)

darkanimal: do you use those third-party bidding services to bid on yahoo japan items? if so which one? have you seen this cardigan lurking around?

here a couple more scans that i just wanted to share with you number (n)ine fans

Re: Number (N)ine

I use bidservice, simply because it's the easiest, not necessarily the cheapest. I don't believe that cardigan has been popping up yet on Y! Japan or in any actual store afai can remember. Thanks for the scans. How is the popularity of N(N) in HK? Is it low key in a good way, or have kids rode on the trend and wear them as streetwear?

Re: Number (N)ine

n(n) isn't popular in hk, at least when i was there last a few months back. bape, bbc, undercover (mostly the tshirts), and company is what you'll see on the streets. very hypebeast-y due to the bombardment of products from milk and touch magazine.

Re: Number (N)ine

^ Thanks for the info darkanimal... i would say number (n)ine is sort of popular with the youngsters but mainly becasue of their t-shirts... once in awhile you will see the kids wearing a n(n) tee but other then that you rarely see number (n)ine...the same is true with undercover but on a much larger scale, you see kids all over the streetwearing undercover tees... or whatever is popular at the time, like those undercover jack purcells...

Re: Number (N)ine

hk fashion is 99% hype- which shows since n(n) shirts are nothing to write home about... (except for the magical design ones and a few this season)

I've had a quick scoot around to try and find bidservice but can't see anything that looks like a bidding tool for Japanese auctions. I read Japanese just about enough to be able to bid directly on Yahoo, but none of the sellers ship to the UK. I'm looking for a third party service that will help me send payments to Japan and get items shipped out of the country. Anyone have anytips?

Re: Number (N)ine
