Ok, I’ll give it a try.
There’s been some discussion recently about starting general threads similar to /rog/ focusing on “low budget fashion” (what a strange phrase). And since /fa/ only gets shittier each day, I wanted to contribute with something that actually might help somebody, especially lurking users. Because let’s face it, the age average on the board is 19-21, if we’re optimistic, and there’s not much people in this age range with means to buy only designer brands. And non-designer or streetwear threads within /fa/ suck. Also, since there’s a lot of shitting about the definition of the word ‘fashion’ around here, I am just gonna use ‘clothes’ as it’s all budget limited.

Genral advice and tips on being a poorfag:
- Manage your money well. Separate certain amount of your monthly income and put it in a clothes jar. Make sure the amount is appropriate so you don’t have to withdraw anything for non-clothing purposes.
- Buying mediocre clothing doesn’t benefit you in any way. Either thrift/buy something really cheap or save up for a high quality piece you really want.
- Always think through your purchases, even if you’re thinking about copping a plain tee.
- Keep your wardrobe small. As you progress on your poorfag crusade, you’ll find a lot of ways to get cheap clothes which, however cheap, won’t satisfy you equally to its price. And having an imperfect wardrobe, more so voluntarily, doesn’t feel good.
- Lower number on the price tag doesn’t mean the item is actually cheaper. Cost Per Wear (CPW) is what you’re after, look for price/quality ratio.
- THRIFT. Or use Grailed. Generally, as far as poorfags are concerned, used is a better option in many/most cases. However, see below.
- Generally you don’t want to be thrifting for shoes (doesn’t apply for thirft, GOAT etc.) and mostly jeans as these things need to have proper fit. However, see below.

1/2
>>
>>11491998
- TAILOR YOUR CLOTHES. If you can learn to do it by yourself, it’ll completely enhance your poverty experience since basically every unfitting pair of pants from a thrift store can be transformed into a great pair of jeans. If you can’t/don’t want to learn this, partial cure is finding your own tailor, but depending on your country, this might get pricy.
- Invest in new, cheap basics before you develop your personal style. These basics should be basic to the degree when you’ll always find some good use for them.

Brands and stores:
>Your local thirft store(s), Grailed
Daily bread and butter. Go there regularly, look for decent stuff. Don’t act rashly or impulsively when you see something interesting, think it through.
>Levi’s
Go-to jeans vendor for most people. I recommend getting a pair of either 511’s or 501's and getting them tailored. This will result in an ownership of properly fitting pair of jeans with good durability.
>Adidas, Converse, Vans
Meme brands of choice for your shoes. Chucks, Stans and Old skools in an appropriate colorway will do until you save up for a btter pair.
>Fruit of the Loom, Gildan, ASOS, h&m, workwear stores
Only use these for buying basic tees. The first two are more durable then the latter, but don’t come in as trendy fits. Some workwear stores sell decent quality plain t shirts in packs of 5(6, 7) for reasonable price.
>{insert your favorite designer or high-end brand here}
From time to time, buy some grail of yours you really want to keep you motivated. Remember, you won’t be this poor forever.

>Last advice. If you’re reading this, you’re probably a fucking white male with an access to internet connection and some electronical device, meaning you won the life lottery the day you were born. So don’t bitch on ancient malaysian rice-growing message board about being unable to buy a pair of Ramones.

Tip: A lot of clothes from thrift stores have nubs and stuff. You can use a razor to shave them off and it looks and feels really nice. Don't do it too much though or else you'll ruin your clothes, and always use a sharp one.

Part of why I shop thrift to be honest, it is much softer when it's been broken. T-shirts, plaids & sweaters mostly
>>
thrifting is probably one of the best ways to get nice clothes for cheap. if you live in an area with a large amount of old people who live there, check out every thrift shop. not everything will be great, but they give away nice leather jackets, suit coats, and sweaters. i got a ralph sweater in near mint condition a few weeks ago for only $5. salvation army also tends to have better things because people who actually care about where their shit goes donate there (goodwill is a for profit company, and those who have nice stuff to give usually know that, so check out local donation centers, small thrifts, and salvation armys for the better finds). typically you'll get brands like the north face, nike, polo, and tommy hilfiger at thrift stores, but if you can style it right, there are tons of good fits to come from them.

Link item here
>>
>>11496494
I would like to help here, but that's not very specific question, is it.

Only overall advice, look at the edges of the item, wear shows of there mostly. On hoodies and sweats, check if those stretchy parts look.. well, stretched.

Don't get fooled by 'excellent condition'. That's 'I've worn it many times, but haven't trashed it' in internetian.
>>
>>11496716
That's pretty commonly used term on fashion blogs. It determines how many wears can you get out of a specific piece of clothing without it falling apart. What's so wrong with it then?
>>
>>11496949
>It determines how many wears can you get out of a specific piece of clothing without it falling apart
Yeah no shit but what an absolutely retarded way of looking at fashion
>>
>>11497001
Oh here we go, let's argue about the definition of fashion and how shall we treat it. For the xth time today.

If I am not mistaken, this thread is focused on people with limited resources, therefore there's nothing wrong with getting clothes (note I didn't say fashion pieces or some bullshit) of quality according to its price.
>>
>>11496494
I mostly thrift suits. Short checklist for fellow poorfags:
>scan whole suit for mothholes
>check for wear:
>lapel — is the edge frayed or threadbare? Press the edge of the lapel down or pull the two sides: is the stripe of edge cloth discolored or visibly more worn than the fabric on the sides?
>cuff — same check as the lapel
>collar: is it worn/discolored? Older guys' suits often have discoloration especially due to them wearing pomade and shit every day of their lives. Check the top fold line of the collar in particular.
>check the lining for wear, the lining's often the first thing to go. Take particular note of the arm holes: wear, torn seams, discoloration?
>buttons — are they loose?
>seat of the trousers — is it fucked? This is THE #1 place any pants blow out
>pocket inners — often thinner, less hard wearing material
>fly
>hems — fraying is common

Some of this stuff's easily fixed, other stuff less so.

Post TL;DR, so cont'd
>>
Cont'd from >>11497250

>check fit:
>does the jacket sit right over the shoulders? This is virtually impossible for even a good tailor to fix, so the most important factor. There should be no rumpling over the shoulders, the collar should lie snug against your shirt collar, there should be no dimples in the sleeves at the shoulder, or twisting of the sleeve fabric
>is the jacket the right length? The skirt should cover your ass
>is it right in the waist? Should neither bag, or stretch — the dread pleb X you see on guys who think "slim fit" is the same as wearing two sizes too small. You will not look slim, you'll look like Chico Marx
>sleeve length decent? This is the most easily fixable jacket detail however so don't sweat it too much, any tailor can do this on the cheap
>is the trouser length right?
>is the waist good?
>is there room in the seat/legs when you sit, bend and so on?

Out of these, sleeve length, trouser length and waist are supremely easy to get adjusted by any tailor, and having the waist taken in is also simple. If there's excess fabric in the back you may also be able to have the waist let out.

>what's the hand like? The weight? Is it nice?
A lot of the time old suits have incredible, nice cloth and actually are better than new shit for this reason, the checklist may sound like it's all shit but tb h it's far from impossible to find some great old suits cheaply. If you live in a big city especially, your wardrobe can be top notch for not a huge lot of money.

word advice to you /fa/ nerds

don't save up to "buy a quality piece you want" and only have a few quality pieces and then everything else you wear with it is shit and you look like a cock sucker

and stop buying shoes from american apparel

and stop wearing weird jackets that you saw as soon as you walked into the thrift shop because you're scared and have no real taste yet and just know you're in a thrift shop and so you think almost everything looks good

and stop shopping from american apparel actually in general unless you're buying some socks or some shit

buy plain white tees

stop wearing medium shirts

stop wearing v necks

I guess you can get away with buying cheap basic pieces. Plain t-shirts, plain polos, black skinny jeans. But you should always buy decent shoes? Is it not worth it to buy cheap shoes?
>>
>>11501105
I've heard that cheap shoes just fuck you over in the long run. If you're buying boots or something other than sneakers, you'll save money buy buying long-lasting versatile ones. As far as sneakers go, I don't think that Converses or Vans would last too much longer than a generic pair from some other store.

If it's leather or suede I'd generally say shell out s bit more dosh, but unless you're super into designer sneakers or absolutely dead set on getting CPs or Replicas, getting a basic pair of adidas or Nike or vans sneakers isn't terrible. Killshots, sk8-his, stans all look ~fine~ and if you aren't putting the primary focus of your fit on your shoes or just don't have the funds to buy luxury sneakers, getting a good looking budget pair that normies won't bat an eye at and fit the overall aesthetic is perfectly fine

>>
>>11501105
>>11501984
Forgot to also add, the two pieces you should generally buy quality/spend extra on are trousers and outerware. If you're especially tight on your budget, getting cheap tees that fit well and have a good color to them, and getting shirts that fit you well on the cheap and tailored to you if needed is the way to go. Buying these pieces used if you want higher quality is also very reasonable.

Being fashionable and achieving your desired style is as much dependent, if not more so, on the time and effort you put in as the amount of money you have available to devote to it.

>>11491999
Nice trips. I used to be a poorfag (still somewhat am, but better than I was). Being a poorfag is good in a way because you think more about every purchase you make. Having more money doesnt make me better at managing it, it just makes me buy more shit impulsively.

I somewhat agree with the advice on jeans and basic tees, but I would say it doesnt just apply to poorfags. Good jeans and plain black or white tees make up the base of 95% of my outfits. Most people cant tell the difference between $150 and $500 jeans, so why pay more, even if you have the money? I also rarely pay a lot for shoes, unless there are some I really want. Shoes like Vans and Adidas Orions go with most of my fits, and I always seem to wear them, even though I own a lot better shoes, cause I hate worrying about cleaning my X Dooms or veritas after every wear.

When I invest in good clothing, I go for top end jackets, pants, backpacks, and accessories (glasses, etc.) cause that shit will last me longer than the year or two I get out of most of my shoes.
>>
>>11505011
Easily desu, that's not a hard core to do on a budget. There's a reddit about it somewhere, but all the basics are obtainable from pretty cheap vendors (Hanes and gildan, levis..). You can buy cool socks on eBay, pale sweatshirts are easily thriftable, so are light wash jeans and woollen trousers (tailoring needed doe).

As far as shoes are concerned, I'd either buy Stan Smith's or off white chucks.

Feel free to ask for specific pieces.

Does this patch look like something a seam ripper could take off?

I'm new to this, sorry
>>
>>11505199
First of all, I'd advise against wearing the jacket, but that's subjective.

Anyway, the question isnt whether the patch is removable but more like whether the jacket is capable of going through that process. The fabric looks as if the removal would leave it rugged and visibly deformed. But it's hard to judge from a picture.
>>
>>11505213
Thanks for the response. I'm looking at it on grailed so I don't have more pics.

I've seen tutorials online about removing patches from letterman jackets, and the fabric on those jackets is such that the holes sort of fill in after removal. This one is padded on the inside however. Even though it's small enough for me I'm probably not gonna cop because of uncertainty
>>
What type of pants do you guys suggest I should get from dickies?
>>
>>11502169
Reason for this is that ebay isn't great for a poorfag. It's great if you have a decent amount and you want some vintage pieces, then you can take some risks with ordering, risking getting one or two duds in terms of fit or condition for each good cop. If you're in poorfag mode you can't chance your cash like that, you have to see the pieces in person, examine them for wear, try them on for size. You can't afford to pony up for a dud.
>>
>>11505199
I can't recommend it. With a patch that big and tight there's sure to be deformations. Don't cop it if you can't stand the back, there are plenty of this type of jacket. Ever brand new ones shouldn't set you back that badly either.

I recommend using /fa/ for inspiration but if you want to be more aware of discounts use that subreddit.

Shoes are more equipment than clothes, cheap clothes are still functional, many cheap shoes aren't and will fuck your shit up - women shoes are particularly bad.

in eastern europe countries thrift shops are called second hand shops, but they are filled with old women clothes and shitty brown suits.

Where to cop decent belts?

I'm from Belgium and i've seen quite a few 'second hand' shops with good clothes in it.

They are often called 'vintage' shops or some shit like that.

Anyway, keep looking. They do exist.

Is it just me, or would that fit look so much better if he didn't have his pants rolled up so high like a dripping faggot asshole?
This is my first time one fa in 5 years

Don't you fucking dare ripping that patch off. Give me that jacket; that's grail material. Are you afraid you're too weak and pasty to wear something that references sports?
>>
>>11507207
Didn't know these existed thanks for that

In my personal experience, I went through 3 pairs of 25 buck no-brand canvas shoes in a year and a half, they all fell apart. Copped some old skools and they're still holding up 2 years later. Vans and Connies etc are meme brands but it's pretty much the baseline for quality, anything below that is just gonna disintegrate off your feet
>>
>>11500959
Everything you said is awful.
>>
are there any cheap brands which are similar to rick owens?
>>
Decent tip :
If you can handle working retail it's usually worth it even it's a shitty place in the mall. They will always have essentials and your discount will come in handy. I work at vans and get a 50% discount I don't exactly like all the clothes but there is some decent stuff that comes out once in a while and basic shirts are ok quality.
>>
>>11511976
I don't really get your what you mean here. But i'll give it a try.

I've never worn rick, not that I wouldn't like to, but I don't have the money to do so.

But - I think the silhouette similar to what you see in ROG is achievable with cheaper stuff through putting some time and effort into it. If you look at ppl around here who wear his stuff, most of their separate garments are really simple (excluding outwear). So, if you really want, you can learn how to sew and make some dropcrotch sweatpants and stacked tee yourself while only buying ro runners/dunks/mones or w/e. But I don't see any easier way that won't make you look like stupid.

if it's actually a good deal, it'd get poached though
why would you link something cheap and hopefully quality/durable to a group of people looking for exactly that, on a board with vaguely aligned ideas of what's stylistically interesting?

H&M doesn't deserve all the hate it gets

>they get torn after a week lol
Exagerration, sure the quality isn't particularly good but it's cheap as dirt and most clothes look pretty good.

I'd recommend it for cheap basic fits for sure
>>
>>11517248

I need some basic dark blue raw denim jeans. Is there anything that's a step up from Levi's / H&M, but cheaper than Unbranded?

>>11518107
APC

>>11518090
Mostly the jackets and boots

>>11518544
APC look better, but they're more expensive than Unbranded.
>>
>>11517248
it deserves the hate it gets for outrageously inhumane working conditions, but in terms of just quality I agree with you 90% of the time.

I honestly have never gotten this, all my life I've never had clothing fall apart on me. The cheapo $30 shoes that I bought exclusively for work are still totally fine after 3 years. What are you people doing to these clothes?

hey guys, i just basically decluttered my entire wardrobe and i'm left with very little clothes, so it's time i go clothes shopping.

i'm very skinny, and i'm insecure about my arms so i want to get some oversized shirts that cover my upper arms, for a decent price. Pic related is rick owens.

where are some good stores to get nice oversized shirts like this from? doesn't have to be this color, just looking for a similar cut.
>>
>>11523982

>>
>>11523982

>>11522523
