They steal the photos of the real thing and the quality of what you get is absolutely shocking. You also don't know what chemicals are on the fabrics and in the dyes, there is no way I'd put anything from Alibaba on my horse.Talking about these brands being cheap - I found a huge amount of saddlepads on Alibaba, unbranded, that look A LOT like the ones advertised on LeMieux, PS of Sweden etc.
Are they like temu and steal pictures though? I saw some fly masks on there and they had used the shires pictured to advertise them. They just photoshopped the brand out.Talking about these brands being cheap - I found a huge amount of saddlepads on Alibaba, unbranded, that look A LOT like the ones advertised on LeMieux, PS of Sweden etc.
They sell for as little as $10aud if you buy bulk. I've considered buying off Alibaba because I'll be paying a quarter of the price than buying from LeMieux and paying for a brand.
Yes but a normal customer doesn’t have thousands of social media followers so from a branding perspective it doesn’t work as it doesn’t convert into leads and sales.I guess that LeMieux can afford all the freebies for the influencers by the mark up they charge the rest of us, same as all the other companies - F&F, saddle companies, other clothing companies, feed and bedding people. I started boycotting them but you very quickly run out of options lol. Like others have said I understand they need to advertise but I really hate the way they literally unpack a box and that’s the last you hear about the products.
I would much prefer to see these companies sending 1 or 2 products to “normal “ customers to do a genuine, helpful review. You very rarely get a review from the big influencers
I don’t think Tina is sponsored by WW anymore so maybe LeMieux have taken over.
Very creepy!!!!Falling down the rabbit hole of ivy and horseware. Does this comment on her reel seem a little creepy???
Totally. Also anytime you see something like “5:04Falling down the rabbit hole of ivy and horseware. Does this comment on her reel seem a little creepy???
I haven’t actually watched any of the Badminton vlogs because I just can’t stomach them right now. Really gone off the majority of them.Just watched a bit of Meg's Badminton video but had to turn off because of Han. This is probably harsh but I've come to the conclusion that I can't stand her. She's so immature and childish. The way she speaks and acts like a 10-year-old in an adult's body is actually borderline creepy. I'm sure I didn't know anyone like this when I was her age. WTF is wrong with her?
Sorry WHAT. That’s horrifying.there’s a reason family vloggers use open mouthed kids in their thumbnails
I saw that too, that person is a wannabe influencer.Do equestrian bloggers get gifted expensive stuff? Saw one asking for a fairfaxandfavor bag…..
Yep, it’s true. The images are edited and made into deeply unpleasant images which are shared by sex offenders on the dark web, and on the internet.Sorry WHAT. That’s horrifying.
No, they do not. People who copy their stuff advertise the fakes on Alibaba.Not sure where people think their favourite brands locate their stock; it’s nearly all made in Asia! Many of the big brand manufacturers advertise their wares on AliBaba.
It is, and the sad thing is the parents know it and choose to ignore it because the quick and easy money is more important to them. All that aside, how is it any good for a developing child to have people clamouring to meet her? How do her parents explain this to her and keep her grounded and sensible?I saw that too, that person is a wannabe influencer.
The beg is unreal, but also funny.
Locates in the Essex area - why are all the pick me types local me

So is everyone also drawing the line at watching any movies, tv shows, etc with children in them?THAT! I must admit I did follow Ivy initially for a very short time right after it all started. Then I woke up. I make a point of not watching any content that is potentially objectionable because every time you watch something, you directly support the account.
That's about the line I would draw.
Don’t they have rules to protect them more than the grabby parents on social media?So is everyone also drawing the line at watching any movies, tv shows, etc with children in them?
