To be fair, some more expensive clothes have a much better fit.

I have been buying $150 jeans most of my adult life and recently read a comment on Reddit that expressed disbelief that someone would pay more than $30 for a pair of jeans.

And many others are just more expensive.

I'm one of those $30 jeans people. An old girlfriend once convinced me to try on a pair of $200 jeans ("you don't have to buy them, just try them on"). I did it just to shut her up and looked at myself wearing $200 jeans in the mirror. Fit exactly the same, material seemed better quality, stitching was the same, etc. Yes, better. But definitely not $170 better.

Then again, I think Levi's are overpriced these days.

> I did it just to shut her up

...I assume you weren't surprised when she decided to change her status to your "old" girlfriend.

Interesting that you presume to know how that decision was arrived at.
