Ask HN: What clothing brands do you wear?

Posted by johnbas on Wednesday January 18, 2017 @02:26PM
from the ask-hn dept.

I run an apparel manufacturing company and I'm looking to develop amazing t-shirts and sweaters and work-wearable sweatpants for the start-up community. Let me know what you guys look for in purchasing clothes~

I mostly don't even think about brands. But I'm totally non-fashion-conscious. I think the jeans I'm wearing right now are Wrangler, and the shirt is the Target house-brand. shrug

No, so I may not be your target market. The only thought I usually put into something like a shirt, is I'll buy a t-shirt of a band I like, or one that has a cool logo/slogan on it, or whatever. That's about it.

I don't recall ever seeing workplace fashion and sweatpants mentioned in the same sentence.

Costco. Blue jeans and white t-shirt and a hoodie.

Either that or Aliexpress. Not into clothing brands. My brother who works for a startup always wear t-shirts that are given by his company.
