Slightly off topic; My favorite clothing brand is made in India; Robert Graham. Allegedly, they were the only place that could make what the founders wanted. He'd been searching for nearly a decade till he found a manufacturer in India that showed/proved what he wanted could be done.

Sure, some of the clothing from RG can be a bit, gaudy, it's the more subdued stuff I'm into. Most importantly, build quality is literally off the charts. I have shirts from RG that I've had for 4 years that still look brand new, even the collar is still crisp and looks new.

$298 T-Shirts, ha. At that price I'm surprised they don't try to upsell a weave that affords limited ballistic protection.

$128 T-Shirts, $298 for one with a fancy beaded graphic.

For materials fancier than cotton you can easily spend 10x that, https://us.loropiana.com/en/p/Man/Shirts/Girocollo-FAF6689?c...
