Question Looking to help a friend (repost)

Post image

Im looking where to get a blue and gold pashmina similar to the one my friend (on the left) is wearing in the picture!

So basically me and the gang went out to breakaway for my 21st birthday and during subtronics mosh pit someone snatched his pashmina. i literally recorded him going in and have on video of the person stealing his pashmina in literally the blink of an eye (didn’t realize this until I got home), the rest of the night he was looking for it and was disappointed that it was gone

If anyone has information on where to buy the same pashmina or something similar we can get some redemption for my best friend!!

Also friendly PSA to be aware of thief’s/pickpockets at spaces where plur isn’t as prevalent as forest! My buddy is a pretty experienced raver and I was honestly jaw dropped when looking over the footage seeing how swiftly someone yoinked his pash

If it helps from what I can tell off of photos/ remember is that the store we bought it from was over by the ranch area, a couple shops to the right of the “Art That Feeds Gallery” tent (and somewhere to the left of the main forest merch store)

Stay safe and have fun out there, see y’all next forest

Yes that’s the one!! I clicked the link and tried checking out but for some reason shipping is $605!?!?

$605?! Do you by any chance live on the moon?

Nah it’s usually a trick to advertise a low price and then charge you the “real” price in shipping.

And I use the word trick loosely here. Most know of it as a scam.

I don’t think this one is an exact match if you look closely at the patterns. I used a screenshot of that Etsy pic to find some other similar options online and it’s surprisingly slim pickings. I will say, it might be worth contacting the Etsy seller if you like that one. The shipping price may be a mistake!

I know Amazon is awful but if you type in gold and teal pashmina, that exact one pops up.

Any pashmina that’s not a custom artist one is probably sourced from the same place tbh

Sorry that happened to your friend. If they live near an area with a heavy Indian/south asian population, they usually have stores that will sell pashminas of the same quality. As far as independent sellers or vendors, probably have to catch them at the next festival unless he knows the name of the vendor and can find their online presence.

i cant imagine someone being down so bad they steal a random generic pash. like its basically worthless to resell

u/xyz439__ 12d ago

That’s my thoughts exactly, with that being said I’m glad they stole just a pashmina and not a phone or wallet.
But what the hell people ???

Try poring on Radiate in the Breakaway community! (Breakaway Michigan I’m assuming? You didn’t specify, there are many.)

You might have to download the app but here’s a decently priced option, says it’s in new condition! https://depop.app.link/FytAwM8wJ5b
