Diesel Clothing

[abzo]

I have an awesome Diesel tshirt that probably cost R1000+ (I didn't pay for it) but its no better than a R180 Quicksilver tshirt from Edgars. People really can fall into a sucker trap when it comes to brands

...Which is no better than a R90 ABC tshirt from shop XYZ.

Banding means nothing in clothing quality wise. Unless you are buying smomething really high end.

I'm not sure, I stopped buying clothes from Mr. Price when every shirt I ever bought from them either shrank or the neck trim distorted and started pointing out (hate that). I have surf brand shirts that are like new after 8 years of weekly wear.

So what exactly is YOUR problem if OP is willing to spend HIS own cash? He's wasting your tax moola?

No one is doing that, some of us are simply using our freedom of opinion cards and saying that we think the OP is legally retarded if he/she is willing to spend 4k on jeans.

Are the markups huge?

I clothing? You have no idea. Same shirts at Woolies / Edgars etc etc going for R300 I have bought for R60 of the factory floors. it even has the logo on

Yes there is some sub par clothing brands but in general it is the brand that makes the price go boom

Mr price has some of the worst quality, shrinking, colour disappearing. I used to shop there before i entered the world of t-shirt branding. Now i buy my own 190 gram super cotton shirts for like 50 bucks and put what i like on it.

Even the so called high end stuff uses relatively low quality garments. Majority is carded cotton and very few companies use combed or super cotton. Geez when i check shirts for like 180 i laugh at the poor quality t-shirt that is being used.

With t-shirts price doesn't mean quality sadly. Obviously your 29 shyte from mr price will be poor compared to the 180 stuff. They also use a low quality ink called plastisol which is crap and does not age well.

Where would you suggest one buy t-shirts that are good quality and at a good price?

Are you which province are you?

[adamdavies]

Whatever you do, stay away from ebay.. too hard to tell genuine or fake online.

[Anony-mousse]

Not stolen. Rejects.

Not rejects, just fake. There are no Diesel rejects for R250. It's chinese BS, but feel free to believe you are wearing Diesel.
