The Definite Guide to Cheap Good Things

[yannickl]

if you can: buy cos on sale.

otherwise buy h&m and tailor to your liking.

I understand "cheap" is quite subjective but I feel it should be noted, that Uniqlo and COS is generally good quality for the price IMO. Compared t, say, H&M you actually get clothes that are not only relatively cheap, but well fitting and good quality. I own shirts from Wings + Horns, Wolf vs. Goat and Uniqlo, and Uniqlo is good quality compared to the pricetag.

I am almost always disappointed with the fit or quality of H&M stuff, and therefore I only use H&M for ties and accessories.

uniqlo socks. indestructible, and a wide variety of colors available.

strange, uniqlo socks wear out faster than any any other socks I've owned. This is my experience at least. I wish mine were indestructible.

a guilty pleasure - joe fresh women's sweatpants.. they have a pair 90% like the w+h sweats.. for a fraction of the price.. i got mine for $12.. can't go wrong with that! haha

[its always cloudy]

^ just to clarify, you're a dude, right? i don't wanna be trying on women's clothing without some positive external evidence here.

and yes, joe fresh is surprisingly nice, at least for fleecy shit/home stuff. their t-shirts are great basics.

Agreed on uniqlo socks being pretty far from indestructible. A bunch of mine look like swiss cheese already.

Anyways, I'm on the hunt for some good outerwear not over maybe $250. I wish I didn't sleep on the +J sale :/.

bump.

stan smith adidas, really good simple sneaker for that cp look.

can be had on the cheap side at swap meets, indoor swap meets/malls, chinatowns, etc.

ck blank tees/undershirts, 3pk for $16-20

my favorite blank tees, these don't shrink in the wash and they wear nicely.

comes in black or white, crew or v neck.

get these at any marshalls, tj maxx, or ross for the best price.
