Is H&M quality?

By which I mean, will it fall apart after a few washes? I'm trying to cop some $12 shorts

Where do you go for decent clothes at decent prices?

i have jcrew shorts for 3+years now

It's not the best quality per say, but if you take care of your clothes in general, I'm sure you'll have around for a while.
Don't hop on the muh quality meme.
I have multiple pieces from H&M that I've had for 3+ years, and they're still just fine.

I have J Crew shorts as well. Definitely recommend those.


H&M is.....you get what you pay for. i mean dude. $12 for SHORTS? I spend more than that on one meal. Shouldn't shorts be a higher priority? i'd look to be spending $50-$80 for at least almost decent shorts. Of course there a lot more expensive shorts out there but J Crew does the trick

H&M is fast fashion, but you can find quality shit if you look hard and you try shit on yourself. It is ultimately a mixed bag. They are usually on the more cutting edge of trends tho, like good fast fashion.

It's all about the fabric. Ultimately they look for the best looking fabric that they can sell for nothing but still get a good profit margin from. If the fabric feels good and the seams are stitched well, then the worst that could happen is loose buttons, but anybody posting on fay fay should know how to sow on a fucking button.

Overall, I always check out H&M, I don't always find quality shit, but when I do, it's the greatest value and it fits well.

>> No.10148014

Worked there. To be honest the ladies stuff is worse because of the fact a lot more variety in the weight and quality of fabrics.

The more expensive stuff I had from the guys department that I got has stood up to wear and tear. The cheaper pieces you pay for what you get.

You buy 19.95 shorts then expect to wear them from now till end of summer, then never again.

I bought a dress shirt, chinos, and fake Stan smiths from h&m for job interviews + a belt for $90. I will only wear this outfit for job interviews and would be hard-pressed to wear it for any other reason

That's all h&m is good for in my opinion - "emergencies"

I bought girl sweatpants from there for the taper - before jiggers were a thing, and yes - after a couple washes they started getting arbitrary holes in them - can't bump into something wearing them or they will probably get another hole

The fabric is cheap and doesn't hold up at all in casual wear (the sweatpants)

h&m is absolute garbage. You are just barely getting what you pay for

How cancerous are you? Why the fuck do you care about what strangers think?
If someone is going to judge you on that basis, they're clearly stupid, and you're retarded for acknowledging it.
If anything, your outfit and the way it compliments you is what matters.

tbh, you've got a bit of a point, but I don't think people would seriously think that harshly of you if you went to H&M. I mean, seriously, what are they going to think?

>Look at anon. Can you believe he buys clothes?

I understand what you mean when you say you need to uphold some sort of image to remain in a good standing in life, but if people are going to judge you on something so superficial as where you shop, the other anon is right; they are stupid.

The most teenagerish opinion. Adults don't give a shit what you wear.

This board is filled with pretentious teenagers who still go to school, see everyone dressed in Zara & H&M head to toe, and think they're THE SHIT when they buy internet memes instead.

And the whole quality discussions, no matter about what brand. are the most cancerous thing on this board. Kids here are fucking clueless.

No need to post anything if you ran out of arguments. And what I said about this board is true and you'd notice if you weren't a 16 year old twat.

Look at all the baby faces in WAYWT/Hair threads, the constant worshipping of some unimportant teeny stars (this thread is a prime example >>10141303, don't forget sad boys and that fat girlband SLP brit and the WIll Smith kids or recently that "model" nigger I've never heard of) or the +200 replies in the recent TeenMFA thread.

Depending on the piece of clothing and material. Try these shorts before buying them. I bought a pair of shorts from H&M this summer and I wore them literally everyday. After I washed them I've noticed a small line on the back of the shorts from sweating (I had to drive alot in the last 2 months).
It's up to you afterall.

H&M is more for people who don't really care about how they look

they just wear clothes because the pockets hold shit and the law tells them towear clothing

it never looks presentable it doesn't feel good on the skin and doesn't breath or keep yo warm

with thatsaid a lot of the stiching is left unifinished so over the course of theday you will have seams unraveling, pills and tears

i have a dior shirt from ss10 the doble neck crew in metallic blue

looks brand new despite several wears and me just casually tossing it on thefloor when i do wear it

I only go to H&M because they're at a physical location near me, and it's easy to pop in and get something I need.

That being said, almost everything I've gotten from them has become super shit over time. They haven't like, come apart at the seams or anything. They're just low quality and it shows.

My hoodie has a false liner, which besides being tacky is also pretty gross when I wear it unzipped and you can see the false inside's edge. Beyond that, low quality cotton because is super pill-y now.

My Vneck shrank horizontally, so now it just barely fits past my waist line. Have to constantly tug on the edges so my underwear isn't exposed.

Surprisingly, the chinos I bought from them recently fit well, long enough for someone who usually buys 34 inch inseams. After a few washes it'll probably come down mid shins though.

My advice? If you're buying online, buy Uniqlo. Same prices, but through some magic they do behind the scenes, much much much better quality. More neutral designs too, so it fits a variety of styles better.
