Slightly more expensive than another brand, when asked, "Made in China but quality is controlled by that respective brand", or so it seems. Asked that cause damn tak puas the wallet koyak so damn fast and not written it's country of make. Showed to the sales people, they just went speechless. |

QUOTE(tomry @ Feb 1 2016, 02:25 PM) Nope, the HB sales person said they'll have to contact their regional office in Hong Kong about this issue and come back to me. They never called me back, obviously, and I had to follow up with them with a few calls with last statement being "Yours is an isolated case, I'm sorry, Sir, but we'll give you 10% off for your next purchase but you will have to use it within 1 month & at the shop you complained to."I still feel ashamed at what I did next cause I actually bought another wallet from them with the discount and the same thing happened again. Thought no point complaining cause the cycle will keep on going and just bought from another brand & the current wallet still looks so good after so many years. Made in China leather products...Even the HB sneakers that were Made in China didn't last long.... |

Ah ok... not seen the current HB wallets. I'm still using one bought about 4 years ago, still going strong with daily use. No tearing or any bits coming apart.
I wonder if the quality has dropped? |

I was referring to Hugo Boss. Their wallets' quality is bad, for me that is. I wonder if the quality has dropped? Ferragamo is good, still looks like it's a few months old only even when it's a few years now. |
