Few years back, I thought it was wise to invest in some semi-pricey clothes which were intended to suite me for a while. The only formal stuff I had at the time was my Dad’s, or something I thrifted, which didn’t quite fit.

Some pants, shirts, which I could put a jacket over for something more formal. Some shorts and shirts for the gym.

Every single one of those pants ripped, to my surprise, because some of them were $150-$250. Some ripped in the belt loops, others between the legs. The dress shirt is barely holding up, there are little plumes of ripped material on the side.

Each time they ripped, I replaced them with something I found for $15-35 at Target. Not a single rip.

I still keep the dress shirt, because it’s the only one I have, and I’m not at all sure what to replace it with.

I dislike the shirts that Target sells because the frame they use is of a long, skinny man, with small arms, and an extremely wide neck. Not sure how the fuck that happened. But the material is perfectly fine.

If anyone knows where I can find a nice shirt (both collared and others for the gym), that’d be great. I’m set on target pants, though. They are indestructible.
