Any douches in here that shop at Saks 5th ave?
Walked into this story today just to check it out, A freakin TShirt for $60, nothing even special about the TShirt, Jeans starting at $130 unless you find their clearance rack. I've paid $60 in the past for a pair of jeans, but $130 is redicules.

I own a couple of 7 for all man kinds, they're worth the cost of the jeans, both were $150+. Sometimes I'll go in try them on and then buy them on ebay haha. ![]() I'm looking into a hugo boss peacoat we'll see. My sis just bought a $800 LV purse the other day at one haha. I'll most likely buy a retro sport bengals T-shirt when I get a chance to go the one in cincy next week. ANyways that's cheap shit for most stuff dude. I guess you haven't seen the prices of some ofr their dress shirt, they'll run $1000+, just for a fucking dress shirt. Suits can be from $1000 for the sport coat to $10,000 for the suit. Prade or Gucci loafers $500+. I guess you gotta pay big money for style, I'll never buy that priced stuff unless I win the lottery.

I agree, but the problem is when you buy expensive you'll often still get cheap. It's not like sweatshop A has better work ethic than sweatshop B. The children in Latin America aren't any more or less skilled or motivated than those in China.

People may think Buying designer clothes at outrageous prices are crazy, but the sad thing is they're really the only clothes that aren't made in sweatshops. I'm not sure this is for all brands,but I'm pretty sure it is, I'm pretty sure 7 for all mankind are made here in the USA.

There is nothing wrong with that. And a week ago, I bought a pair of sneakers called Nike turned 2.0 and it costs me $140. Also I purchased a sandal which is called Nike Air moray 2 and it costs $49.99.

I used to try to "Buy American" or at least "Buy From a Country That Doesn't Use Slave Labor", but I had to give up that criteria years ago.
Even good ol' Clarks, once made in England are now made in China. Now I buy clothes for these reasons: 1) I don't want to run around naked. (And I suspect no one else wants me to run around naked either.) 2) I need to hold all the crap I'm forced to carry around, wallet, cell phone, car keys, etc. 3) I don't want to freeze in the winter or bake in the summer. Style is a very low concern so the last place you'd find me shopping for clothes is Saks 5th Ave, although I'd love to get another nice fedora to replace the one I lost. ![]() Last edited by DG : November 20th, 2008 at 11:23 AM. |
