Bland Items with Good Construction - Perpetual Thread?

Thread Starter 
Hi all,

I am looking for the following items/categories of items that I can find some high-end manufacture:


1. Grey sweatshirt. Must be grey and plain in design. Ideally I would want something that is made in small runs whilst maintaining the grocery store overstock look.

2. Thermal underwear. Are any Japanese companies making repros from 1940s JC Penney catalogs? Tired of replacing the cheap $6 Kirkland/Costo ones every few years.

3. Baseball socks. I can get these from American Apparel but what is the point? I would like them to last a few years and develop a good wear pattern.

Anyone else in my boat? Not really interested in looking 'luxe' so if you have some other ideas of clothing that could fall into this aesthetic post em up.

Like a sweater from Buzz Rickson's, Cheswick, Deluxeware, Barns Outfitters, Pherrow's, etc? They usually are small run production (mostly limited runs too), especially good are the vintage box-cut, loop-wheeled ones

You are a freak and a very weird dude. You're also quite young. I think we should stay away.

bumpin this... 1/3 isn't bad, though some of those sweats have a lot of detailing on them that I'm kind of trying to avoid... Will settle if need to... Nobody has a source of high-quality/authentic thermals/bball socks? Anything else i am missing? Was looking at the buzz rickson converse, seem good...
