I don't own any True Religions as I stick pretty much with Hugo Boss. But, only get them on sale (end of season). My one $$$$ denims are a pair of Zegna...but, you gotta make an exception for Italian
Senior Moderator
3 pairs of Boss for $100 FTW for me.
I would've even paid $34.40 each.

I've looked on their online store, but in-store is so much cheaper.
Need to plan another trip soon.

Canada is stupid expensive...
some friends were over when we had a conference in Atlanta and we hit up the mall (shoe stores in particular) and did they act like little girls in a Forever 21 store

Not sure what my body fat is but I'm 6' ~240-245 lbs. I dropped down to about 190 in years past until some guy told me that I looked like a crackhead. Either way, I have awesome proportions, not much of a gut at all.

How much do you fellas spend on clothes in a year? I usually buy clothes in spurts. Once every 2 years on average, but ball out. I'm getting the urge again.. but need to donate a shit ton first.

Sales are far and few up here. No outlets.
But, I'm also brandwhorish. Boss at a minimum. If something tits in Canali, Armani, Zegna, and etc. can be had, I'll get it too...

spending depends on what I need...
so I HATE buying torn or faded jeans....i like to wear my jeans out...so couple jeans for work is what I go to shop for LOL
now dress and party shirts are sporadic...its gotta be "damn thats a nice shirt" for me to even consider buying it....
I dont buy tshirts anymore...I am in the whole wearing polo shirts (brand and style)...and they gotta sell themselves as well....
I havent "shopped" in couple years...as you said I need to donate and clear out some space as well (when we were just moving into the house)

#idgaf.. zori, tee, and pants optional

Man...1500-2000 on clothes per year...that's just crazy...I wear jeans(Wranglers) almost everyday, unless I'm going out or playing golf, khakis or shorts then. Tee shirts most of the time or polo(golf) shirt...I know my clothes budget is perhaps $500/yr, at most. I do have about 8 pairs of golf shoes that I rotate, and those are $100+/pr. Yo youngstas are just trying to impress!

It almost feels like I've moved to Tokyo or something stupid. Housing here on average is $450K for a 1600+ square foot home. So, you get the picture.
My line of work, I'm also usually in suits (no tie though) and so, the budget is what it is. Nothing like stupid first impressions in a cheap suit and poor-quality shirt.

True that Yummy...my wife has HGTV on all the time and many of the shows are filmed in Canada...$450K here will get you 4000 sq. ft. in a semi luxury home. My house is 3000 sf and is worth about $325K. Now Socal, that's crazy there, although I did go to that outlet mall in Ventura whilst we were there, good prices. A trim carpenter (me) showing up in a suit...no that's crazy. Beemers are just everyday chevys in Socal.
