POLO TEE

[salesmen]

Which Brand's polo tee is value for money in terms for the quality. Above 60bux

 

[MookieTea]

Lacoste imo.

 

[BYYYBYYY]

No polo/ apparels worth $60 one. Its all for marketing and branding. Even a pair of raw denim is arnd a dollar or a littlw bit more only. Apparels with brands are overpriced. But still, if you wan, ralph lauren is my recommendation.

 

[ZacharyA]

Budget from Lowest to Highest,

HollisterCo
Zara
Superdry
Lacoste
Abercrombie & Fitch
Fred Perry
Ralph Lauren


All the 'famous' brands you see in Singapore

 

[platee]

The tissue paper i have is worth $9001 /metre. Hand made by magical fairies in Avalon and personally QCed by King Arthur. You believe?

 

[Carnage]

I think Lacoste is not bad.

Buy AnF if you can get it overseas. SG is mega overpriced.

I got mine for $75, still retains its shape. Machine washed btw.

Go clarify with any tailor worth his salt before you shoot your sarcastic, ignorant mouth. Or you could simply look in fabric shops, you'll be extremely surprised at how 'cheap' some of them are. Or you could order directly from McQueen, they do sell some fabric for those hoping to alter clothes themselves. It should broaden your horizons

 

[Questin]

I can also sell tissue paper at $9001/metre.

That does not mean it is really worth that much.

 

[Chocoholicxx]

It's all about demand and supply. Prices are high because there is demand for the materials. You can always choose not to buy them but there'll always be someone else willing to pay that exhorbitant amount for them

My exact sentiments... If you all really noe the source of raw denim, they can cost less than or around a dollar. Im working with them now and i noe these prices... For fabrics i dare not comment but for denim, this is my two cents.

 

[sted.]

Lacoste or Abercrombie & Fitch ...

Lacoste for slim fit ...
A&F for muscle fit ..

Most poeple think fabrics are cheap, but in reality they are not. The super high grade ones are not easy to produce at all, and what limited supply are always snatched up. Have any of you seen the process whereby they convert cotton into actual usuable fabric? For the luxurious ones you'll be stunned at how much effort goes into producing one bale.

When fashion houses buy fabrics, they are buying from suppliers and pay a fixed price for it. Hence when they price their clothes this is taken into consideration. They dont pay $5 for a bale and then price it at $500. They dont rip you off that much

I would LOVE to see you sell that much. The houses are not stupid, they would not pay that much for a length of cloth thats hardly worth anything. If pricing is way over the top and unreasonable, nobody would even consider buying. Would you spend $800 on a shirt that feels like its made from a rucksack even if its Dior? Dont forget the costs it would incur during the process of making a shirt from fabrics. I estimate Dior shirts actually cost around $200-$400, which means they profit about 50% from each item

 

[sevensomerset]

interesting, got yotube tv to see?

 

[tempestuous-]

can yall share how you guys wash your polo t? thanks

 

[jonathanckh]

if you don't want your polo tee to stretch more than 2cm after wash, don't get ralph lauren. have bad experiences with 3 polos from them.

There are always people who will buy overpriced stuff because they dont know any better or they see a brand name and think its good. There are already people paying $1000+ for branded bags when bags made of full grain leather cost less than half of that.

Anyone can claim their materials are "really" worth their price. Bribe a few experts and big names to support you, and you can just say "The people who disagree with me don't know what they are talking about".

Another thing to keep in mind is whether a $100 polo shirt is 5x more comfortable or lasts 5 times as much as a $20 one. I can almost guarantee it wont. Plus with clothes, whether or not its "in season" affects the price heavily.

Example : A few months ago i bought some shirts at $15-20. Very cheap, on sale. Average quality. Compare to the full priced $60 Giordano shirt i bought a year ago...about the same feel and quality. But huge difference in price.
