Excellent Business Opportunity in U.S.
 

How many have noticed that shirts you buy at sears etc. are pretty much shot after 1 summer? I'm talking about summer shirts, not the dress shirts you wear with a tie to work.

My casual summer shirts pretty lose their color & shape after 1 season and are good for nothing but yard work the 2nd summer.

I do, however, have a shirt that I bought in 1993 that was made in the U.S. that is in such good shape that I can wear it to work on casual days.

It is 90% cotton and 10% linen. That's 14 years it's gone without fading or losing it's form.

So, even if that shirt cost $100.00 today, I would save more in the long run by buying a U.S. made shirt, rather than buying one of those cheap $16.95 shirts at sears every year for 14 years.

I think somebody could make a mint bringing back U.S. quality.

He thinks consumers would choose higher priced quality over disposable consumer goods.

I'm pretty sure he is wrong. There are plenty of designers that sell quality t-shirts. I don't wear T-shirts often but the few I own cost $80-150 and they last a couple of years. If people wanted upmarket t-shirts they would buy them. Most people prefer t-shirts be disposable and they want to buy new ones often.

The activities people do in t-shirts are not really compatible with them lasting even if the shirt was made of quality materials.

I dont have any shirts made in the US. So I can't argue either way. Come to think about it, I don't remember the last time i ever bought a piece of clothing that was made in the US. Do you have some examples?

I'm don't understand the use of "owned". My best guess is that you believe paying that much for a t-shirt is stupid.
