Well, yes, I don't like them. They make clothing that dates as quickly as possible, which pairs nicely with the poor construction. Those two would be less offensive if it weren't for the comic overpricing.

They are still canvased. The entire black label collection is. Some of Collezioni is, and some of Emporio. Armani black label is now adding "Fatto a mano" to their suits.

So what are you personally settled on now?

Well I went from being a 16 year old kid who happened to find great deals to becoming 17, scoring a jewelery design job and making $100 an hour. (I do not work daily, btw).

Nope, I'm a broke college student that saves up money for choice items that I really like. Just gotta be patient.

T-shirts - alternative apparel, american apparel, plain. Jeans - pay more for one decent pair, instead of buying lots of so-so pairs. Jacket - look at WAYWRN here and in SW&D before even considering looking at spending such a large percentage of your budget on one. A serious answer because of the popcorn.

I don't understand why you have to ask if all you want to wear are jeans and t-shirts...
