The fashion industry sucks.

So the assholes like levis started ripping us off by giving us less cotton and more elasticated materials, and sold us fast fashion.
They didn't reduce the price it remained at the base rate of £85 a Jean.
They marketed the cloths as having flexibility to help you wear the jeans at every occasion.

Anyways now they're jumping on this sustainability business. Which we have to pay for again.
We're cleaning up their annoying mess.

I'm sick of campaigns.

While this may be so, they are [i]in the business[/i] of making clothes. If you swap out a quality fabric like denim for cheaper materials, and keep the price the same, you are more about making money than you are about making quality clothing.

So do your bit for the environment and give the fashion industry the two fingers by only buying your clothes from charity shops, then...

@assemblingaknob ooh oh... Hmm...
😕

@Mellowgirl :( recommend me a better and cheaper alternative.

Mellowgirl · 31-35, F

@assemblingaknob any highstreet shop except dorithy perkins and new look. They're all badly stitched these days and they wear away really quickly. I know I have my chaffing issues but that never used to be an issue I had some jeans from high school I stopped wearing them as I gained weight but these new ones lasted less than a year.

Even in lockdown

Levi's jeans for £85? You mean 3 pairs?

Mellowgirl · 31-35, F
