Are clothes really getting worse? [View this email in your browser]( Are our clothes really worse than 50-60 years ago? The author of this thread observed that technology is so far advanced today, we are able to give garment properties that were unthinkable a few decades ago: both fabric and construction benefit from technologies that are relatively new and keep improving year after year. Yet, people pointed out that tailoring (and maybe tailors) used to be better back in the day; the fit as well as the construction of handmade garments were superior than what we can expect today, even from upper crust shops in Savile Row or Naples. Are clothes really worse today or are we looking at the past with rose-tinted glasses? Join the conversation in this thread. [BROWSE THE THREAD]( Denim brands, much like football and soccer teams, can turn normal people into mad hooligans. This is understandable, as people often marry a denim brand or even just a model of jeans because it just hits the spot. This is why a bold statement made by a member spurred a multitude of different reactions, with other users intervening to explain why Levi's – no, Lee! no, Japanese labels! – are actually the best option. You might as well jump on the bandwagon and tell us who you think takes the crown as the best denim brand.
