Title: Don’t buy from sohoskirts!!
Post by: imgumby001dammit on September 29, 2018, 05:44:23 PM
I recently purchased a custom cloak from sohoskirts. The description stated it was wool, which it’s poly, the stitching is amateurish, and it doesn’t fit! Plus, I asked if they would fix it and they said if I payed to ship it from the US to Canada, AND, payed $25 they would make it right. Please save yourself some heartache and done buy form this company.

Happy cosplay to all...

Hey there, Gum. Sorry to hear your bad experience and quality issues with that seller and thank you for giving us the 411 on them.  I recommend using FarFarAway Outfitters and Khloe’s Custom Clothing, they both have outstanding qualities and are nothing short of impressive work. Lots of the members on here have use them and can attest to their quality.  They have an Etsy store if you want to check them out

I’m working on a Gray Jedi costume that I’m using stuff from both stores to put together and will post pictures once I order and receive them all

Thanks bubba. I’m just sad. I was very excited, and had to save for a while for this, and it’s just disappointing. Hopefully the other forumites will read this and avoid this experience.

Hi Gum, sorry to hear of your bad experience. I can vouch sort of for Far Far Away Outfitters too, at least three friends of mine from another message board recommended them to me. They also have a quick ship outlet too I believe called "Far Far Away...Lightspeed" so if you still have funds (or got a refund) you might want to check them out.

Infinit01 is right and I can personally attest to the quality of Khloe’s Custom Clothing.  I purchased my tunic from her Etsy store and I have nothing but good things to say about them (and their product).  Here's a pic of the tunic:

The pants are charcoal Dickies, the dark gray undertunic was a separate purchase from Amazon (I can provide a link if you like)

Got any pictures, that sucks by the way. I also back Far Far Away, here is mine. I got cotton for the cost on the robe but they also have wool. (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180929/6852e80ce567451a3b940eb787292841.jpg)

Thanks guys. I’ll post a before pic. There not going to honor their exchange or refund me my money. It’s bull, but it is what it is. We’re going to have it altered locally, and add some stuff. It will be ok in the end, but I definitely didn’t get the product I was lead to believe I was going to get.
