Nothing lasts anymore, y'know planned obsolescence and whatnot but like seriously where do I buy stuff that lasts, I'm talking everything from clothing to appliances, etc

Also clothing companies with lifetime warranties would be good

    definitely look into this. there are also some web companies that do tailored clothes, and they're not necessarily forever-clothes, but the labor is more skilled (so more leverage for treatment) and the quality is certainly better than fast fashion.

      About how much would that cost, if you know? What would I be looking at for pants/T shirts/coats?

        it really varies wildly, depending on what you're getting, the amount of detail, the fabrics used, the skill and disposition of the person, the amount of set up for it they are, etc. some fabrics are a bitch to work with, some are simple, how do you want the lining on your coat put together? do you want embroidered cuffs? a lace panel? that's more work...

        but I'd put aside a couple hundred if you want something absolute top quality.

        T shirts.... probably not all that much. you might not even get them to do the work without an order of "several"? i would be shocked if it was over fifty, including material, unless you're huge.

        button downs and stuff are probably not gonna top 100. it really depends on the person. some might see it as an insult, others as something they can make a pattern for and knock out in five minutes every time you hand them a twenty.
