  • The other day I was in the park with a few friends. There was a guy there that I did not know too well, he as the boyfriend of one of my girlfriends, friends. Anyway, I was chatting with this super nice, super friendly dude and he asked me what I was doing. I explained that part of what I do is run this TH-cam channel where I talk about high-quality products that will last and provide value. From this, he got super interested. He simply did not know how to go about buying good quality clothing, even though he really had a desire to.

    It was an interesting question and gave me pause for thought. After a few days I put together a list of 5 questions I ask myself before buying a new piece of clothing, and indeed before I buy anything.
    Will it last?
    Will it age well?
    Does it fit into my existing wardrobe?
    Will it bring value?
    Does it come from somewhere I trust?

      Mostly RRL some washed some raw on expencive side but id u can catch them on sale can save up to a couple hundo...started out with a pair of gap raw and actually for gap the quality wasnt half bad im was surprised retail 148 but u catch crazy deals there so think i ended up paying like 60 bucks but have had them for 2 years and i think they turned out pretty nice imo.... on feet im a mason so ive actually switched ober from red wing to thorogood for me i think they are a bit more comfortable out the box and hold up better in the trenches and around concrete and mortar cuz that stuff just sucks the moisture right outa them so im on a weekly basis cleaning/oil to maintain but 2 yrs strong on those so far and i feel like the sole holds up a lil better than RW not as soft

    Great video bringing to awareness those processes usually conducted via habit. You've done such a good job covering these chinos, even before you've worn them, that I want to try a pair immediately myself. Hopefully they'll be restocked soon. I hope your future reviews of them are equally positive but if not then that's just good, honest journalism. Regards as always Matt, Jason.

      I’m wearing them right now. And they just get better with time. Really they did such a good job on those chinos.

    Hey! For natural Vegtan leather belts Which do you think last longer hardware or stitching??? I’ve looked a multiple forums and they just argue the positives and negatives is there actually a difference or it it just aesthetic, imo I think stitching looks better!

    • @CeeAreDee
      @CeeAreDee  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Both last a good long time... I have had the stitching go in a belt once but it was such high quality that it could be restitched without any issue using the same holes. And that was after 6 years of everyday wear. I have another belt with hardwear which I like cause I can switch the buckle with just a screwdriver. So I guess I would go with that again. That one is from my buddy at Dyemond Goods.

    My question is it good quality, does it age well, is it durable, does it fit in my life style. I only stick to 4 brands Nudies for jeans and jean jacket and leather jacket, Naked & Famous for jeans and jean jacket, ralph lauren for shirts and sweater. I try to make sure everything fits together.

    • @CeeAreDee
