Clothing⦠Quality or Quantity?
When you’re out shopping for clothes you can either buy inexpensive clothes that fall apart if you look at them wrong or you can spend just a little bit more and buy clothes that may actually be worth what you paid for them. Now, I’m not saying that all inexpensive brands are low quality and I’m not saying that all brands with a slightly higher price tag are high quality, but more often then not you get what you pay for.
Now I buy inexpensive clothes because, in my mind, they are disposable. If they fit decent and are ten dollars or less I’ll buy them and figure if they fall apart after two washes, I got my money out of them. On the flip side if I want a really nice top or a pair of jeans that I can wear for the next three years and wash continually, I’m going to be looking at a more expensive brand such as Hiltl or Lucky.
The phrase “you get what you pay for” applies when it comes to clothing. Typically brands like Hiltl make their clothes out of higher quality fabrics and they pay more attention to the fit and cut of the clothes rather than just mass producing them. Because of this when you try on a pair of jeans made by a top brand you’ll notice the difference right away. They will be more comfortable, they’ll fit you better, and the color shouldn’t fade after only a few washes. They are made to last longer.
So the choice is yours… do you want disposable clothes or do you want them to last you a while? Either way you’ll be spending about the same dollar amount. So you get to choose… quality or quantity?
