€29 from Pippa O Connor, probably €5 in Pennies. This is shocking. Who buys this shit and gives this clown more money? Probably made in a sweat shop in China for 20c.

  3. I know nothing about this brand or women’s tees in general, but if it’s a good quality heavyweight shirt, that price isn’t *that* ridiculous. I’ve paid almost that much for various heavyweight Carhartt T-shirts, and many of them have lasted me several years or more. A €5 Penneys shirt would probably be a tattered rag within a year, if the other shirts I’ve bought from various cheap shops over the years are any indication.

  5. Its Saturday night. I’m drinking alone, playing video games and even I’m like “this guy needs to get out more”

  6. Bought a t-shirt from her range a couple years ago, it’s still fine, held its shape and stayed black. You’re not comparing like with like

  8. Sustainability in clothing should be a bigger concern for consumers since the clothing industry is such a big polluter: it is second only to the oil industry.

    Cheap clothes have a very big cost, from environmental to exploitive labour practices.

    I have bought some items from here and they are fantastic https://kokorozenwear.com/

    It is an Irish business and the items are made here, hence the higher price tag. The fabric is sustainable. Clothes used to be much more expensive and we owned much less. We have become too used to cheap clothing.

    Also, buying second hand and taking better care of your clothes also helps.

    Buying higher quality clothes means they will last longer, too.
