I thought its high time I get some new clothes, but I want to get some clothing by design companies with nice, interesting designs. I'm particularly interested in japanese motifs and symbols.
I was looking at theDesignerRepublics stuff and yet again I come across this elitest stupid attitude that covers so many of my favourite things.
A)Why make everything so limited!? B)Why make everything so stupidly expensive just because its by them. A notepad or keyring for £5, a A1 poster for £50!? I mean, come on!
Is there anywhere that sells things with nice creative designs that have sensible prices?
Cheers

Well, probably the fact they don't make many...but i'm sure the could make enough sell enough to make it cost effective and cheaper for the buyers!
I really don't think they are Kashmir tshirts either

i saw a RAWKUS hoodie which was like £20 more than any other hoodies in the shop -- totally pissed me off - so i ended up buying a talib kweli/DJ hitek T-shirt for a more reasonable 20 quid --- i really hate elitism and exclusivity grrrr

Yeah, when I saw the trailer for that (I didn't see the actual thing) I thought at first it was a parody of American Psycho.
It was pretty fucking sad.

I usually by cheap clothes, it's only my style concious girlfriend and my brother that buy me "fancy" clothes. I don't mind well made stylish clothes, but some branded stuff falls apart in 2 weeks waste of time if you ask me. I hate having to wear suits for work. Expensive, uncomfortable and IMO they don't look that good.

Yeah I once made the mistake of buying a £40 pair of combat trousers from gap. Within weeks the buttons had come off, six months later they fell apart.
My friend got similar trouser for £10 in an army surplus store. 3 Years later, his are still wearable...

If you buy their jumpers, you wash them once and then they're too small even for your 18 month old cousin. Bastards.
I always loved C & A but they've closed them down. I wept at the doorway when they closed the store for the last time. It was the end of an era.

i dunno, they seem to make those rephlex shirts in spurts.. they stoped for a while, and then started again..and i havent seen any for sale in a while..
ebay is actually a good place to look for obscure shirts, not everything is 'official'.. but you can usually tell
