If you don't mind the poor quality, Cotton On isn't bad for basic plain shirts. If you spend more than 20 dollars on a single item you're doing it wrong. Avoid everything else in there like the plague, though.

For jeans/shorts, General Pants isn't bad but some of the stuff is obnoxiously priced.

If you want to shop online, Mr Simple and I Love Ugly are pretty ace too.

Cotton On is shit, but if you're looking for some basic plain tees and don't want to spend more than 15/20 dollars per item theres nothing else on the market. If you buy anything else from there then you're eternally plebtier though.

Honestly the only basics I wear are Norse Project Tees, Our Legacy Perfect Tees & Industrie Off White Tees. Other Basics that are australia based would probably be AA too. If you must buy bulk buy AA/Industrie on sale, otherwise, buy a nice top from Our Legacy, their tees are perfect.

In terms of Pants you only really need one pair of good black jeans, so a pair of Acne Ace Cash. If you're restricted to Mall Fashion, Try a pair of Jack London black 17cm jeans. It's basically gross budget slimane grossness, but their jeans are alright. The fit is decent, but the quality isn't so good and gets loose after a while from the last wash.

All of this you can buy for reasonable prices if you're decent enough at looking in the right places, Especially now of all times.

In Sydney? Hit Up Supply/Flipside Pop Up in The Galeries. While you're there, check out Incu there, Maybe also Pieces if you're small/aisan. From there, I'd start the Paddington ascent. Start at P.A.M. store/Supply/Carhartt and work your way up. You'll pass American Apparel and then you'll eventually reach Assin, they'll be having a sale 30%-70% off. Past there, You'll reach Acne then another Incu.
