"FacebookPinterest\n\nIf I've learned one thing over the years at GQ, it's this: Quality endures. But too many guys think quality = expensive. Not true. You need to start thinking of your clothes as investments you will have for your whole life\u2014not just an of-the-moment \"new outfit\" you buy for a big weekend in Vegas and six months later it falls apart/is out of style /looks like crap. Case in point: The only jeans I wear are Levi's 501s. Thirty bucks a pair, and they last basically until they fall off of me. Which means years. Decades, even. Is there a better deal out there? Same with my shirts. And this brings me to my second point: Sometimes \"expensive\" is actually the better deal. I've gotten more than a few shirts custom-made at Charvet in Paris. Sure, the initial outlay is big. But consider this: These are shirts that are cut by hand from exclusive fabrics and then handsewn with an insanely high degree of craftsmanship. These are shirts that will last forever and are unique to me. I'm not a financier, but all I can say is, Dude, amortize that! These are shirts that may well become something that is\u2014in the best sense of this word\u2014handed down. Because when it comes to clothes, look for things that are built to stand the test of time, that are built to last."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
