I tailor my own clothes cos that's my hobby - but I know a lot of people who only buy second hand because the quality is better. If a garment is still fit for sale after it has been worn - its quality.

But it's a false economy. You are buying total crap that needs throwing away in a few months. My oldest daily wear jacket was made in 1973, I'm not saying everyone should wear vintage. But people should be aware things that are cheap cost way more in the long run. Low-income people are trapped in poverty by the things they are forced to buy.

@k4piii And what about the person who had to work for 50 cents an hour in unsafe conditions to provide you with those T Shirts at $4..??? Or the villages with no water cos the corporation is industrially extracting it to water the cotton plants? Literally, dozens of people had to suffer in the supply chain so you "couldn't be happier" with your $4 T shirts

@tomtom9792 - If you're rich have your clothes tailored for you. In fact if you are middle class have your clothes tailored bespoke for you - it's way less expensive than you think to have a seamstress make your clothes for you, they will last you literally decades and they will fit. Rich people don't look rich cos their clothes are expensive, they look rich cos their clothes FIT. I make bespoke historical mend clothing - trousers are $250
