Sometimes I can tell. Usually you get better detailing with the expensive stuff, in the same way that you get nicer interiors on a Lexus than a Toyota. Granted

Sometimes I can tell. Usually you get better detailing with the expensive stuff, in the same way that you get nicer interiors on a Lexus than a Toyota. Granted the difference in quality is definitely not worth the difference in cost (like many luxury goods you'll end up paying 5x in price for what feels like a 1.2x improvement in quality). I recently replaced 20 or so $10 target shirts with a handful of $60 shirts from Nordstrom (NM sells them too) and they're much more comfortable, hold up better in the wash too.
