How much on average do you pay for your clothes?

[RedStratocas]

totally depends on how much i like it. i'd buy a tee shirt i kinda like for 10 bucks, but i'd also buy a tee shirt i really like for 40 bucks. admittedly though, most of the clothes i buy are expensive.

[Tooplee]

t-shirts: £10 - £30
jumpers/hoodies: £20 - £50
jeans: £20 - £50
shoes: £25 - £50

The amount I spend on t-shirts varies really from like £3 - £50, if I like it enough, I'll buy it.
The only kind of shoes I really wear are plimsoles and they are usually £10 - £30, I usually buy them from River Island though and they're normally £20. If I buy trainers though they're roughly £55 - £60.
Jeans are usually between £30 - £60.

But it applies for everything, if I like it and want it enough, I'll buy it, whatever the price (within reason of course, I wouldn't spend like £800 for a pair of jeans or something stupid like that)

One thing I refuse to do unless under exceptional circumstances: pay for the brand word. I buy quality and will pay a lot of money for it. I love quality items of clothing. However, I would not pay £50 for a belt with the word 'DIESEL' on the buckle when the same version with a plain buckle would be £15. Understated is fine by me. I have no desire for a Gio-Goi branded jacket: I would feel foolish and my friends would think I look ridiculous. If brand-bling mattered, I would see a lot of it every day. I don't see it. Brand-bling doesn't matter.

same! thats why i hate hollister so much, actually. their clothes are normal clothes that other places carry plus "hollister" written on it in huuuuuge letters and a price thats tripled. everyone says "you just dont like hollister cause you hate brand name labels/you cant afford it" but if that were true i'd have no levi's or nikes or calvin klein. i dont like hollister cause their clothes are lame as hell and everyone who wears them looks the same lol.

but that being said, often what i consider quality clothing does come from a brand name.

You'll probably find it typical of me that I didn't know what Hollister was until it was mentioned in this thread. Oh well! :eusa_whis And yeah, the US chains starting up over here are pumping out some awful (and I mean truly, wouldn't be seen wearing them EVER, awful) clothes.

I think I like to view things in perspective: for the price of a Gio-Goi jacket with Gio-Goi jeans, I could buy a lovely Kurt Muller suit.

lol i dont think there's a hollister in the u.k., but it's pretty immensely popular over here. there's one in every mall. it's known for their ridiculous entrances:



its mostly for preppy girls and guys who absolutely need to be accepted. yeah, the large majority of u.s. chain stores just pump out garbage with holes to put your arms through.

No idea lol i buy basic stuff when i go away to england like from primark but i prefer stuff like fred perry A+F etc. I'm not made of money so i do buy new look coz it's good. So it varies from £5-£50 i think 50 is the most i've spent on one item
