The point is, unless you're dealing with solid colour tees you're paying for a bunch of unnecessary, and therefore unscalable things.
And I said it was overpriced myself, that was the point of the example.
The facts are: -A $100 tee made of better materials and with better construction quality will be better quality than a $20 tee. -Some people feel the higher quality of the tees are justifiable and buy them. Whether or not you think it's worth it is purely subjective. I don't feel it is most of the time, and would only spend >$20 or so if I really loved the design of the shirt and I felt the quality was good. The point still remains that the shirts are STILL better quality, just maybe not justifiable to you price-wise.

But you'll find a $20 sweater is just as good as the $80 most of the time.
Wrong.
I feel like there's no such thing as a $500 t-shirt, and if there was it wouldn't be nicer than a $40 one.
Now, the difference between a $5 t-shirt and a $20 t-shirt would be evident, but once you get above $20, you're really paying too much.

120 dollars for a white shirt designed by Kanye West and APC. Close enough because it's just as retarded.
But no, the quality of a shirt caps bout $100 which you can get for $60 or less used.
Of a shirt, sure the quality caps around $100.
But of a t-shirt?
No, $25 is being lenient in saying that the quality is still going up.
Wrong. You don't know what you're talking about.
Lol sounds like somebody ITT pays full price.
I have actually never bought a piece of designer clothing, but I like clothing a lot and I know the difference between a $20 shirt and a $100 one.
I only wear solid coloured tees, so I'm not paying for some obscure media reference, I'm paying for the quality of the shirt, and the value caps out around $20.
Example: Right now I'm wearing a $20 target brand shirt which is less quality than my $6 Arizona shirts, which are in turn lower quality than my $15 Gap shirts, which are equal in quality to the $35 shirts I got at Banana Republic.
Graphic tees my be skewing you perspective of pricing.
>graphic tees where the fuck did you get that from? Not talking about graphic tees And BR is overpriced so shit example

Jim, this is like me trying to say Holly carbs are the fucking shit yet I've never ran one on my car.
Mildly laughable, even is well intentioned.
>hang around and talk to people who DO buy designer clothing
>get an understanding of how it works and what it's made of
fucknut
Speaking from experience, personal experience is always better.
>Actual proof as to why the clothes are better quality It doesn't matter. I HAVE handled quality clothing, and the quality IS nicer depending on where you buy and how much you pay. As I said there is a limit, but the difference of a $20 t shirt and a $100 one is noticeable; it's up to you if it's worth it or not. I buy $20 tees because I can't justify more unless the shirt is unique. The quality is still noticeably better, just not enough for me to want to pay the price for it.

Right. I got a sweater I've had for 8 years and got for 15 dollars. Warm as fuck and holding up well.
And I was just about to post that.
How often do you wear the sweater? Pretty confident in saying a high quality sweater will hold up even longer. Not only that but it'll likely keep you warmer and keep its form and look.

Do people really not comprehend that expensive clothes are usually made out of a nicer material?
That cashmere sweater might look like that polyester one from afar but that shit sure doesn't feel like it
But yeah certain brands are just stupid, j-crew and coach tend to be expensive as fuck for what they are and the clothes are just mediocre cotton shirts
We're not talking about expensive materials, we're talking about brands.
turn your brain on, expensive brands tend to be made from nicer materials or just crafted better
Sure they do.
An $80 shirt is made out of gold and unicorn tears and not cotton where they're charging an extra $70 for the brand name.
you clearly lack basic reading comprehension skills. I literally said the exact same thing you just said in my first comment
Nope.
You're saying expensive clothing is all made of superior materials when it's blatantly untrue.
The majority of designer clothing is FAR better quality than what you will find in a mall. Now, that isn't to say that there is a huge difference between a $40 t shirt and a $500 one. There isn't a big enough difference to in any way justify the price for me. But keep in mind, construction quality is every bit as important as the fabric itself. You can use high quality shit, but if its made by some dude in China it will fall apart.

Why to people buy expensive brands of cars?
Because they're actually better.
Same could be said about most expensive clothing though.
No. Most extremely expensive clothing is pretty much supermarket quality. You're just paying for the brand name.
You have no idea what you're talking about at all.

« on: February 26, 2015, 01:30:18 PM »
people like the way they look and justify the price and/or buy them used.
There are limits to my hobby, and I would never pay retail for 90% of designer shit out there. If you dress to impress people with your money, you're just a faggot. Dressing for yourself is fine, and to me, it's no different than spending a shitload on video games or cars. It's just something you enjoy. Most people don't spend assloads of money on shit like Versace unless they want to show off, though. Those people can smd.

I am doing the whole to be kind album right now. I gotta pay attention to this for now, but later I will. I don't have high hopes though because it is rare that an ambient album impresses me.
To Be Kind sux tho
And normally I would agree but it's not what you think it is.
nah. I mean it's definitely hard to listen to and has no stand out tracks. I wouldn't say that the music is necessarily bad though. I mean michael gira reall has captured the art of primal repetitive rhythms to make a sort of hypnotic effect. That is actually what my favorite songs seem to consist of most of the time. The fact that michael gira is trying to capitalize on that effect is actually pretty intriguing to me. I mean don't get me wrong I don't think the new swans albums are like amazing or anywhere near some of my favorites, but there are definitely worth a listen every once and a while.
Meh. I think they blow cock. I only like their pre Soundtracks for the Blind stuff.
