At least for me personally, a $125 t-shirt does not tick the "only slightly more than mass-market retail" box. These are expensive clothes. https://shop.outlie

  A regular t shirt might last 10 to 20 years, but a $125 might last generations as long as it doesnt get torn or stained.

    In all seriousness though, how many people are really going to consider a t-shirt to be a family heirloom, that you _should_ pass down through the generations?
    • maimeowmeow 8y ago
      The handme downs are passed down through each generation of siblings, but unless you have space, or clothes are adult sized its probably gonna be donated. Definately not heirlooms even at 125 bucks.

    Do you have t-shirts you've been wearing regularly for 20 years? How old are you if you don't mind me asking?

      Not the parent, but I have many t-shirts that are well over 10 years old. Some of them I wear regularly. A good quality fabric can definitely last decades, we're just getting unused to that and assume everything has to break down.

      Im mid 20s, and I can still have tshirts from over 10 years ago. Rotate through them everday, in my experience brandname 10-20 dollar shirts, or kirkland 3 dollar shirts have held up.

  The t-shirts do seem ridiculous, but they're famous for their pants, which are definitely in the same range as normal pants. A lot more than $20 at Wal-Mart, but less than many mall brands.
