Online fast-fashion retailer SHEIN and its newer rival Temu are in a race to win shoppers' attention for their inexpensive China-made goods.

“I think as Temu gets a higher profile, there will just be more and more lawsuits. Including IP, but probably not just IP. I'm sure there will be data-related things as well,” US and China tech analyst Rui Ma said.

three people with knowledge of its plans told Reuters. SHEIN said it does not currently have plans for an IPO and declined to comment further. Social media influencers on TikTok often mention SHEIN in posts about Temu, comparing the companies and their merchandise. The now-deleted @SHEIN_DC, @SHEIN_USA_, and @SHEIN_NYC pages were created in September and displayed SHEIN's logo and marketing material on their bio pages, according to screenshots provided with SHEIN's complaint."Temu has also attempted to impersonate the SHEIN brand and trick consumers into believing Temu is associated with that brand," the lawsuit alleges.

Stop supporting china by shopping through shein etc.

shein is successful bc they use technology to produce only small batch clothes, and shein is a decent company that produces affordable clothes.

The truth is, SHIEN is successful and beats other top brands because they’re not driven by greed to add huge profits on their items. The items are very affordable and presentable.

I have purchased items from shein and the quality was amazing.

Lab results find Shein clothes likely made with Uyghur cotton

They’re both selling cheap tacky that have just been photographed well.

La guerra del ñiqui ñuqui, el “fast fashion” póngaselo hoy y bótelo mañana. Montañas de basura garantizadas.

Both sites sale shitty quality stuffs. The more you buy the more you waste your money

US will ban them calling them seciruty threat. Anything that outcompetes US companies is security threat for US.

Go home China made junk

I refuse…. Not buying their crap. Either of them.
