I've purchased from these guys before - great service and prices. The style is much like Japan's UNIQLO - which is my personal favorite.
I picked up a couple of blazers and some pants on sale for $56 total shipped. Even used a unique $10 gift card they emailed to members last week. Plus free shipping makes this a no-brainer. Not sure when the expiry to this offer is.
FYI for men they recommend ordering one size up.
Bargain! Happy shopping.
The photos do load kinda slow with me too.
Seems fast for me…I'm using TPG…LOL
seem to be running quicker now
Bought 5 shirts from that site before. Great value for money.
Be aware: the size is smaller. If you wear Median in Au, better go with Large.
VTs (VANCL T-Shirts) are $7.99 each shipped. Some designs are decent in comparison to Threadless. Can't speak about the quality.
tshirts are much better quality than Threadless. The shirts are slightly thicker and very soft
For ladies sizing, if you're a size 10 Australian would you go for a S or M?
Also, how much is shipping normally?
Check the online sizing chart. Try a similar physical store like Giordano if you are still in doubt.
Shipping is always free. My last order took about a week from memory.
let's play spot the difference:

holy cow… copied from reebok hahahaha and 25bucks !
hmmm their size small is 104cm which is 40 inches…that's not very small at all. small is usually around the 36inch mark (chest size btw).
are you guys sure about this ordering a size up?
The sizing chart on the VANCL site suggests it because these garmets are marketed mainly in Asian markets. I remember seeing VANCL billboards everywhere in Beijing. It's very popular.
FYI - sort by 'lowest price first' to find the sale/clearance items.
Oh wow, I bought heaps of stuff from these guys on eBay, could never find their english direct online store. Thanks so much! plusplusplus to you :D
can u plus 3 times on the site?
No, but anyone else who wants to give a +'ive will make me happy.
I checked my past emails, and it seems VANCL have been sending cutomers $10 gift cards every 6 weeks or so with no minimum spend. The email has Chinese characters in it (but written in English) - so it may be landing in existing member's spam trays. Worth double checking if you have made a past purchase.
should i register now n wait for the gift cards before buying anything?
I think the $10 gift card offer requires you to:
A) make a puchase to qualify (my first was only $10) including shipping.
B) wait around at least a month, give or take, for the first offer to come in.
I think the current offer is worth taking up because $54 ($79 - $25) can buy quite a lot of good stuff.
Thanks OP. Do you know if their sizes are like Japan's UNIQLO as well?
From memory, I wear a men's L size with UNIQLO (maybe M in T-shirts). UNIQLO L probably equates to M @ somewhere like jeanswest or something. I was 75 kgs a couple years back and would comfortably wear UNIQLO M. I'm 80 kgs now and the M stuff I still have definately does not fit well anymore.
I suppose a bit of trial and error is the price you pay for the great prices afforded by an online only business. I had some problems with ASOS in the past - some things in M fit me perfect, others don't. Fortunately thier returns policy is quite easy. Don't know about VANCL.
Apparently UNIQLO is coming to Australia next year. Thier print T's, linen shirts, v-necks and heat-tech stuff are the business. Can wait to get more on my next trip overseas.
it's only worth celebrating if they keep their prices similar to what it sells for in asia.
if, like zara, it comes and sells for the typical aussie RRP then i will not be going anywhere near it. Still, that won't dissuade the masses
Totally +1 for Uniqlo.
Very good deal, just jumped the gun and purchased a stack of t-shirts.
site soooo slow, bringing back dial-up memories
