I can't say anything for most of those but clothes for 4 people should not come out to 10k a year, especially since they said nothing fancy. Even buying high-quality name brand clothing, how do you go through enough in a year to need to buy more? All of the >$20 clothes I have have lasted years, and will continue to be usable for the next few. I would be surprised if most of them don't get donated, in close to perfect condition.

I get that they have kids and so must buy new clothes more often, but if you buy designer brands for your kid that's the problem.

Fancy is relative. A lot of people would consider a $1k suit as a cheap baseline suit.
