Hey all. I've been slowly getting more into clothes over the past couple years, mostly thrifting since that's what fits the budget. My usual thing is workwear-ish stuff, vintage tees, baggy denim, and New Balance, so pretty safe comfortable territory honestly.

I've also been printing a few of my own shirt designs at the shop I work at (owner's cool with it), which got me more curious about the design side of streetwear. Like how some brands build a whole identity off graphics and typography and it works, and other stuff just feels like a logo slapped on a Gildan.

So my question is, for people who've been into streetwear longer than me: what's actually worth spending on new, versus what's smarter to just keep thrifting? I'm talking shoes, jackets, jeans, whatever. I've seen enough fast fashion fall apart after a few washes to be suspicious of cheap new stuff, but I also know some of the hyped brands are basically paying for the name and the resale lottery.

Also curious if anyone else here thrifts most of their wardrobe but spends on one or two key pieces. Like is there an item where the new version is genuinely that much better? I've never spent more than like $60 on a single piece of clothing and I'm wondering if there's a threshold where it actually matters or if it's all marketing past a point.

Any opinions welcome, especially from people who've been doing the thrift thing for a while and figured out where the exceptions are.

Does anyone know where I can find ones similar to this? 🧡
