Ted Baker ftw, affordable and quality. At least for outerwear (coats, gloves etc.) and trousers.

Zara for everything else

Meh, I go there for work stuff like suits and work shoes but for going out clothes hell no, they're way too old fashioned.

Some of their clothes look like a clothing rack from the late 80's.

They're a good place to get your base stuff. Wardrobe fillers.

Most of my every day stuff is either them, Levi, uniqlo and some Next

Then some nice stuff I keep back for best..... some Pretty Green, Hawes and Curtis and some nice jackets I bought in the States

Jackets / coats are my vice

Same.

That would be my one piece of advice: if you are going to spend money, spend it on outerwear.

I buy tyrwhitt shirts for work, have a penchant for Timberland footwear, probably have four pairs of boots and four pairs of shoes, like Ralph Lauren stuff for casual dress and have about five different makes of jeans but buy the same pair of Levi’s every 7/8 years of so. I also play golf and ski so like wearing some of the modern qtr zip tops with jeans for slabbing around.

Yep. It's the jacket that people see.

You could wear fuckin Primani and George at Asda along with a £400 Parka

Nobody will give the £10 shirt a second look... in fact they'll presume it's expensive lol

I'm having a look at this brand

I've heard they're good and they're in a much lower bracket than Canada Goose etc

Why because they look better than you? sounds like sour lemons.

I wear Armani because the clothing is good fabric quality, fits my physique nicely and the whole point of dressing up a bit especially if like me you go to bars etc a lot on the weekends is to look good for the ladies.

I'm not going to turn up to a nice bar wearing Addidas trackies am I?

Dejan's advice would destroy my sex life.

............... PS if your referring to people who wear big designer logos plastered all over them then I agree, I only wear discreet stuff however, each to their own, everyone has different styles / tastes.
You dont need a 200 dollar shirt to enter a bar. People with gucci clothing are total bellends. Quality is the same as any other shirt.

Imagine being so insecure to need rediculous expensive clothing to feel better about yourself.

40 is the absolute max i pay for a normal t-shirt. For shoes about 150.
