Why Image Search Is a Game-Changer

One of the most common frustrations in w2c shopping is seeing a product you love — on social media, in a haul video, or on someone's feet — but not knowing exactly what it is or where to find it. Traditional text search requires you to know the exact product name, colorway, and batch, which isn't always possible.

Image search solves this problem by letting you upload a photo and find visually similar products. For the w2c community, this is invaluable for identifying specific colorways, finding the right batch, and locating products that aren't easily described in text.

Using AstroReps Image Search

The Search by Image feature on this site connects to AstroReps, one of the best image search tools for w2c:

  1. 1Click the "Search by Image" button in the hero section of this site, or go directly to astroreps.com/search?mode=image.
  2. 2Upload your image or paste an image URL. The tool accepts photos from Instagram, Reddit, or any other source.
  3. 3AstroReps will analyze the image and return visually similar products from its database.
  4. 4Browse the results to find the exact product or the closest match.
  5. 5Once you've identified the product, search for it on the KakoBuy Spreadsheet using the product name.
  6. 6Click the product card to open the modal and access the KakoBuy purchase link.

Tips for Better Image Search Results

Get more accurate results with these techniques:

  • Use high-quality, well-lit photos — blurry or dark images produce poor results.
  • Crop the image to focus on the specific item you're searching for.
  • For shoes, use a side-profile photo for best results.
  • For clothing, a flat-lay photo works better than a worn photo.
  • If the first search doesn't find what you want, try a different photo angle.
  • Use the text search alongside image search to narrow down results.
