Honest question. Where you buy your clothes from? As much as I would like to buy clothes without logos, they are not easy to find where I live.

Honest question. Where you buy your clothes from? As much as I would like to buy clothes without logos, they are not easy to find where I live.
- rendall 3y agoI live in Finland. My favorite place to get sportswear and just daily wear is H&M. No logos. My favorite design house is Makia. Really amazing stuff. https://makia.com/ https://makia.com/ but if it has a big-assed Makia logo I don't buy it. When I lived in New York there were so many options it was hard to choose, but I'd check out used clothing boutiques for fun things.

- rendall 3y agoThanks for the tip!
- dpkirchner 3y agoFWIW, in the US, H&M is known for fast-fashion, garbage-tier clothing. I've heard the brand is better outside the US, though.
- fshbbdssbbgdd 3y agoI keep hearing people say this, but the few things I bought there lasted many years.
- rendall 3y agoIf I lived in the US in a place that didn't have many good stores around I'd buy from retailers online and try out different things. I've had luck with https://www.uniqlo.com https://www.uniqlo.com
- rendall 3y agoHmm. You may be right. Here is the men's pants section on the Finnish site https://www2.hm.com/fi_fi/miesten/osta-tuotteen-mukaan/housut.html https://www2.hm.com/fi_fi/miesten/osta-tuotteen-mukaan/housu... Equivalent items do generally look better, to me at least, compared to the US https://www2.hm.com/en_us/men/products/pants.html https://www2.hm.com/en_us/men/products/pants.html Equivalent prices, too. For example, compare the "cargo joggers" Finland https://www2.hm.com/fi_fi/productpage.1002227020.html https://www2.hm.com/fi_fi/productpage.1002227020.html to the equivalent item from the US store https://www2.hm.com/en_us/productpage.1002227011.html https://www2.hm.com/en_us/productpage.1002227011.html To me the one available from the Finnish store has a better cut and seems to be made of a thicker material.
