It’s so true, so many big brands aren’t made like they used to be. A lot of it comes down to mass production and costncutting on materials. One thing that helps is checking fabric content and going for natural fibers when possible. Also, smaller or specialty brands focused on quality over quantity are usually worth the extra investment.

I get my clothes from the thrift store. Have you noticed a bar of soap doesn't last very long anymore? They're smaller and more expensive and they just kinda melt away. As with clothes, greed seems to be all that matters anymore.

You are paying to wear a logo.
I stick to classic quality clothing, no logos.

@geoam1 It doesn't matter where the garment is made. If Adidas tells its supplier to make a T-shirt for $1, you are going to get $1 worth of clothes and no amount of branding or marketing can change that.

The gear that Fanatics produces is absolute rubbish. That stuff is way overpriced to begin with, but they get away with it as people want to rep their teams.
