Bespoke Goyard Porsche interior

[Vlad]

This video was served up to me by the YouTube algo. This guy from California spared no expense on this build and ended up ripping up 8 Goyard bags and repurposing the canvas for various parts of his interior.



I'm not sure if I'd do it personally, but the car is a total gem otherwise.

A bit later he talks about having received a cease & desist notice from Goyard:

A cease and decision? Really?? LOL

Goyard better be glad someone still buys their tacky stuff, even if to upcycle.

Interesting - I always thought that as a private citizen you could do this as it is not used for commercial gain, violating the rights of Goyard.

Goyard frowns upon anything they view as an unauthorized collaboration. In 2016, Goyard accused DJ Khaled of sporting a fake Goyard silk jacket at the MTV Music Awards. They posted the accusation several times on their official Twitter page and temporarily froze the sales of their silk scarves. Once Khaled revealed that he used authentic scarves to make the bespoke piece, Goyard deleted their posts and allowed sales of the scarves to resume.

If the creator can confirm that an upcycled piece is made with authentic materials and is for personal use only, there is little that Goyard can do. However, I wonder how much actual use this car will get before the Goyardine seats begin to experience normal wear and tear.

Wow, did not know that. That action further aids in turning me away from the brand. Very cringe-worthy in that they:

A) wrongfully assumed that his ensemble was counterfeit, to begin with

B) didn't bother to reach out to him directly/privately, yet unstead harassed and libeled him several times on social media (very immature!)

3) contradicted themselves: if they claimed the jacket was counterfeit, then why would they need to halt the sales of their "authentic" scarves. What does selling authentic scarves have tondo with a counterfeit jacket? Then when they realized they screwed up, they put the scarves back for sale. Well what was the issue in the first place?

Seemed like a huge circular reference.

If anything, Khaled should be the one to sue them for damages on grounds of defamation per quod...lol.
