yeah I was curious what 'upcycled' really meant. This is from the sites FAQ :
". Most of our accessories are crafted from vintage designer bags that were destined for the landfill. These bags can no longer be used, as they are old, worn, or torn. Our mission, and the definition of "Upcycled", is to take these goods that were heading for the trash and restore them to their original beauty. Thank you for joining us in our mission! "
So for this fanny pack they took old used Louis Vuitton handbags that were presumably partially damaged / worn out and reused the good fabric to make the fanny pack.
Now, that the Chinese factories exposed these luxury brands where their bags are really made, these 'high-end' retailers are desperate for any sale they can get...

I have purchased one of these bags and it's absolutely beautiful and of great quality. I have also received many compliments on it. I'm happy with my purchase.

That's already been debunked by multiple certified consignment resellers on different Op-eds.
But it's cute that people believe social media when it's convenient for their cause.

Yup, and they were in such a hurry to parrot debunked Chinese propaganda that they also missed the part where this isn't a product made by a "luxury brand"

Seriously. Anything that is targeted as a high-end deal or slants more feminine attracts negative attention on SD.
Meanwhile, the dudes drooling over a 1,000 dollar 4000 series card have some vaild reason to be spending that much.
