10 Affordable Quality Brands To Buy Basics For Your Wardrobe

---

Do you find yourself constantly buying T-shirts because they just keep shrinking or looking raggedy after a few washes? The issue is probably the quality of shirts you’re purchasing. White T-Shirts is a must in your closet, therefore you must invest in high-quality Tees.

“The thing about the basics is they don’t really change – it’s the details and the proportions that change. The shirt may be cut slimmer or looser, the suit might be darker or lighter, the sneakers might not have laces, but you’re still talking about shirts and suits and sneakers.”

John Varvatos

High-quality clothing doesn’t have to be expensive and expensive clothing doesn’t always equate high quality. One of the first tool to evaluate if a piece of clothing is of high quality it to look at its tag and the type of fibers it consists of. Natural fibers that are extracted from plants and animals as cotton, wool, linen, or silk are typically the highest of quality and synthetic fibers such as polyester, acrylic, spandex, rayon, and other manmade fibers spun from plastics and petrochemicals are typical of lower quality. Even a garment labeled 100% cotton can be low-quality however. It is best to feel and stretch the fabric before purchasing. Below are the top 10 places to purchase quality and affordable basics.
