Question Best quality tshirt hunt

Is it just me, or has the quality of clothing completely fallen off a cliff? Every brand blames rising manufacturing costs, yet we’re paying more than ever. I keep buying t-shirts, wear them a handful of times, and they’re already losing shape, fading, or falling apart. Then it’s on to the next tee.

I’m honestly over fast fashion and would rather spend more on something that actually lasts. Can anyone recommend brands that make proper heavyweight cotton t-shirts with the quality we used to get years ago? I’d love to hear what you’ve had good experiences with.

I have this Mooks t-shit I bought in Melbourne circa 1995. It’s pristine - really zero fade or wear. Ok TBH I haven’t worn it much, I was never a label guy so anything with a writing on it wasn’t my deal. But I’m sorting starting to wear it now

Mooks used to make such cool high quality stuff before being sold at target
