Seriously, fuck fast fashion and the like. It’s insane how so much of modern consumerism is propped up by what is either literally or almost literally slavery.

That might explain why one of the shirts from my last order wasn't even stitched up properly on the left seam.

Although I must say the quality of their products had been on a sharp decline since even before the pandemic. The fit remained scary consistent though.

For me by the way that sounds like a good reason to 'buy local'

for an example, hint: the gag for me (maybe unseen on the photos of their 'Strickwaren' made in Frankfurt) was Criss Cross wearing they clothes 'wrong side' an they (the label VM) thought and presented 30y ago , that 'it is posible, we can do this' ...local, page: //www.velvetmonkeesshop.com/VM-STRICK-PULLOVER-p123861920 , also nice that they wrote 'Felix is 188cm and wears size...' (-:

and um no i am not involved or getting tantieme by that comapany, this anecdotical posting was just for your entertaiment, regards...

You're right, the perfect reason even. Thanks for making me see.

I was under the illusion that locally made business-casual style clothing would be difficult to find. A very quick search was all it took to bust that idea, and make me feel ridiculous for thinking it in the first place.

More expensive, naturally, but the price difference is minimal - not much more than a small uptick.

This is enrichment :)
