I wash and wear all my t-shirts exactly the same, but some look awful after just a few washes because the fabric pills up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/well-made-clothes-or#post-1893347 Wed, 08 Oct 2014 10:55:21 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1893347@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I own two pairs of BR slacks for work, and they have lasted me forever!! Come to think of it, they've been holding up so well for 10+ years now too. I do think quality makes a difference because even my good jeans and corduroys have lasted me a really long time, and those get some serious wash and wear. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/well-made-clothes-or#post-1893343 Wed, 08 Oct 2014 10:54:10 +0000 snowjewelz 1893343@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think so! Although I still don't really splurge on anything (I will wait for sales, use coupons, etc), the few winter coats I have are all from "good" brands and they've lasted me years and years! My toggle pea coats are from BR and puffy winter jacket is from North Face. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/well-made-clothes-or#post-1893324 Wed, 08 Oct 2014 10:50:16 +0000 Mamaof2 1893324@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When I 1st got this job 10 yrs ago I needed work clothes. I splurged on 3 pairs of BR pants and they still look amazing 10 yrs later!!</p> <p>But I wonder is it because they are really well made or the fact that are dry-clean only and never been in the water? </p>
