Yeah I thought maybe I'm part of the problem by buying cheap t-shirts and jeans that wear out quickly, but everything I buy gets used way more than 7 times and usually thrown out when holes develop. Super cheap jeans wearing out after 2 months are the worst, but in cold weather months they get worn every day so that's still like 40-60 times being worn.
I have found supermarket own clothing is usually OK. Shame a lot are now doing 80% cotton instead of 100% and adding some polyester though. But its still better than the 100% polyester stuff
