I found True Religion (jeans) at Hyundai Department Store.
Prices vary and range up to 578,000 won.
There's a 30% discount ending tomorrow, Jan 24.
Levis are a mere 168,000 won.
Thank goodness for vintage clothing stores.
I recently purchased Tommy Hilfiger jeans for five thousand won
that fit as good as you would want them to fit, in perfect condition.
There are Levis for 5,000 too, but not in my size. |

why bother with brand name clothing. I can buy a brand new pair of Jeans that fit well at homeplus for 15k won. They look nice and fit well.
Is it that important to buy brand name even when its used? |

In my case I go for the quality, durability, and fit.
Sometimes brand names are superior, variable depending on if made in certain countries.
The Tommy H jeans I got are made in Mexico and are excellent quality and fit.
In some cases I remove labels and logos when they are removable.
I have a pair of Guess jeans I have been wearing for close to ten years.
I have a Levis denim shirt that is about fifteen years old.
I have a Patagonia jacket, and it was a great investment, as good now as it was fourteen years ago.
I was surprised how much some people will spend on clothes.
Some people doubled their money in funds last year; easy come, easy go I suppose. |

True. Problem with me is my body keeps changing because of sports. So one week some thing fits next week something doesn't..
I have lost so much weight that I just ended up blowing to much cash every month on new clothes.
I know what you mean about quality. I had good brandnames that fell apart in matter of weeks and I had some cheap stuff that lasted for years. Go figure. I just hate keeping shit to long, especialy when its to worn out.. I am not sentimental about old shirts or jeans. I rather dress in newer non ragady clothes as well. |
