The fault is firmly with the consumer. People are addicted to cheap shit and consuming like crazy.
We had cheap clothes 10 years ago, then Shein and their ilk showed up with even cheaper clothes, and people flocked to them in droves.
And you can still buy good quality clothes, $120 shirts and $150 pants of good quality are readily available. But who wouldn't want to have 10 shirts and 5 pants instead?
- quickthrowman 1y agoWhere can I find good quality (by this I mean durable) shirts for $120 and pants for $150? I’ve examined clothing in that price range and it’s virtually just as bad as $20 fast fashion: synthetic fibers mixed with cotton, poor stitching, loose weave on the fabric, etc. If you have brand names for polo shirts, jeans, and chinos that are durable and long lasting, please share them because I can’t find them. I have yet to place a test order at Bill’s Khakis, I should do that.
- FireBeyond 1y agoSo far (only six months in), Normal Brand (https://thenormalbrand.com/ https://thenormalbrand.com/) has been good to me. Seems better quality, nothing I have is synthetics, well stitched.
- quickthrowman 1y agoThanks, this fits my style and budget, I’ll give this place a shot!
- terribleperson 1y agoCan you really get $120 shirts and $150 pants of good quality? J. Crew and Brooks Brothers and the like have gone downhill.
