I have clothes from 20 years ago. Don't buy cheap, the exception being TK Maxx.

My wife consigned my Glasgow City of culture T-Shirt to the bin in 2020. 30 years of use...
I tend to buy clothes that last though I have put on 2 inches round the waist since 1990...

Yes. Same with Cotton Traders. Made in Bangladesh, and then CC out their own label in as well as the other label manufacturers put in. Trousers I ordered weren't even all cotton. 40pc polyester 😅 And, CC put the wrong size label in as the other label in said trousers said another size. Hence me returning them.

I generally don't have a problem with Cotton Traders or the quality of their goods. I find it useful that they do larger sizes. On the delivery and return issue. There are lots of CT franchises around, often in Garden Centres, where you can collect and return things should you wish.

I like to see what I buy so never buy clothes on line that way you can see and feel as well as try the stuff, old fashioned maybe but it works strangely enough.



I used to be the same but there's just so much more choice online than in a men's store where we're tucked away in a corner upstairs or down in a basement.

I agree with David Klyne. I like their rugby shirts and some trousers. My wife has been happy with their products. If you aren't happy you just return them.

I've often wondered that, he disappeared quite suddenly, I hope he's ok.

I saw a sweatshirt in tkmaxx on Sunday that I liked. Looked at the price £60, thought nuts to that. Looked on the website of the manufacturer and same one for sale at £52 with choices of colours. Got home and my Facebook personalised ads had the same sweatshirt at M&Mdirect for £26. Ended up with two delivered cheaper than the tkmaxx price by £8

I don't remember ever buying anything from TK Maxx. I rarely buy expensive clothes, yet some of mine I have had for many years. It is very easy to get ripped off these days, particularly by big-brand labels. I'm convinced some of them just buy in cheap stuff and stick their labels on it, immediately trebling the price. Sometimes you get what you paid for, but not always.

Used to love TK Maxx. Long before we had a store in Luton there was one in Bedford. I used to go there once a month when I was working, as my season ticket covered it. Always bought something, much of which I still have, apart from work clothes.
