>>6477779
anon needs to remember that brand quality varies depending on where you live.

example:

H&M in the state where i live sells shitty quality clothes

H&M stores all over sweden sell visibly better quality clothes. so much that you can see the difference and definitely feel it when you take the item in your hands to inspect it.

just because you live in a shit tier country where a famous brand can pull off selling shitty clothes doesn't mean all of their shit is bad.

this is just what plebs who never got to visit a decent country think.

again thats subjective. of course the quality and fabric doesnt justify the price, but the design is what justifies it to some people, not to others.

i know, i bought some stuff in h&m when they first opened a store here. the jacket and pants i bought started literally falling apart.

followed a friend through the mall in sweden. she went to check stuff at h&m and i followed only to be surprised with the noticeable difference in quality. and if i could notice it- a person who knows zero about fabric and sewing, then it's really damn noticeable.

i went through a few more stores in sweden to confirm my discovery. never shopped in h&m at home again. roughly the same prices, but the quality differs so much it's disgusting.

>>6477875
confirmed for a pleb that can't afford to travel and actually experience these things. stay sad.

>>6477878
yep. to be honest, i wasn't too surprised. i live in a pretty shitty european country. people here can't afford better quality and usually don't know that there IS better quality stuff out there.

i had a friend who does paperwork for a similar brand clothing chain. he said that all the clothes his company can't sell in their home market (because they don't satisfy the market standards) they ship and sell in shitty countries that don't have defined standards for these things.

the more you know.
