hi, just writing this out for everyone, since alot buy from dieselofmiami (including me) and a few others seem to complain about his goods.
myself:
i have bought two pairs of jeans from him: Zathan 772 and Rabox 832
(sp?).
using the Zathan 772 as the case study, i have to say i saw no "defects" from the jeans. i have gone shopping in the past year in tons of Diesel stores in the US and also went to the flagship stores in Italy as well as other stores which simply sell Diesel jeans and everytime i check out the jeans that i owe too. there seems to be a good amount of abberation which is actually expected because Diesel claims the scratches are hand made.
the ONLY thing that made me consider flaw is that the bottom scratch that has alot of dark diverging vertical lines wasnt as distinct as some i seen. that said, it could simply be abberations or it can be that i dont remember what my jeans looked like before i started comparing them to the ones i saw in stores. overall this is negligible and really doesnt prove anything about defect.
the rest of the jeans, the cutting, the "feel", the patterns all seem correct and authentic. i know someone mentioned that there's defects "you cant see with your eyes" in these jeans, but that argument doesnt hold for me because if you cant see the defects with your eyes (assuming yuo know what you're doing) then theres simply no defect. im sure Diesel quality control doesnt pick up an electron microscope to check the "molecular structure" of their jeans to see if they past quality control. that already sounds absurd
add to the fact that Raul offers great service and i think hes pretty good deal in many cases where you can buy a pair of jeans for 130$ (including shipping) when the retail is 180+ dollars.
im done !
