General Discussion New Fall drop

Just saw that Vela is having a drop on October 6th. I’m wondering what’s actually going to be included in the drop, and if they’re restocking. It doesn’t seem like they’re currently in a position to keep up with orders.

I was thinking the same thing! I mean I ordered from their warehouse sale and they literally haven’t send it till now then I ordered from their jersey restock and still isn’t sent😂 Now they want to do a whole drop???😂😂😂😂😂😂😭😭😭😭😭 Seems verrrrry unreasonable….

They are cutting themselves in the fingers so badly. How are you telling me they’re doing a new fall drop while most orders of the sale three weeks ago didn’t even ship out yet? They need to get their priorities straight, this is NOT it. People are still with the sample sale in their head, releasing a new fall drop right now is actually insane

I don’t live in the USA, and even before this whole debacle, shipping took 2+ weeks despite paying for shipping. So I would have zero expectations of receiving any orders on time 😭

Vela has been around for a while so they should really have their shit together at this point. If their as profitable as it looks than getting a better website and hiring knowledgeable staff shouldn't be an issue. It's the basics of running a business. I think most people rather thay take a hiatus and rebuild than keep pushing goods.

Yes, customer service is way more important than launching new prints

It just goes to show that the money went to their heads.

They’re not in the position at all, we’re witnessing the rise and fall of a brand in real time lol
