That’s a good philosophy mazal. I don’t usually wear designer clothes myself, but I don’t live in Brooklyn so many of my friends and neighbors don’t either. Sometimes though a brand-name item is more durable than its no-name equivalent. For example, I bought my daughter some brand-name uniform skirts (manufacturer of women’s career clothes/ kids’ clothes). These have lasted much longer and look better than other skirts I bought at the same time. Also, I buy my kids’ bookbags from a mail-order/ online company known for its outdoor gear. They are much more durable than those I can buy in regular stores, plus they come with a lifetime guarantee. Also, we get them monogrammed with our last name at no additional cost.
