The typical Hanes or Uniqlo with a good quality but with the classic T cut. After discussing it for a while, we came to the conclusion that, at most, this creation should be, in the most extreme case, around 150-175 euros. Some of you may find this figure outrageous, but think of the 500 or 600 euros that some of the proposals from brands like <a href=\"https:\/\/highxtar.com\/louis-vuitton-x-nba-winning-the-fashion-game\/?lang=en\"><strong>Louis Vuitton<\/strong><\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/highxtar.com\/gucci-thinks-about-imitations-in-its-new-fake-not-collection\/?lang=en\"><strong>Gucci<\/strong><\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/highxtar.com\/the-cool-kids-of-christian-dior-atelier\/?lang=en\"><strong>Dior<\/strong><\/a> cost.<\/p>\n<p>According to various publications that have recently come out, the t-shirts created by luxury houses have production costs that range from $3.50 to $14 per unit. The differences basically lie in whether production takes place in a developed country or in a Third World country where workers have no rights of any kind.<\/p>\n<p>The raw material, cotton, however good it is, is still one of the most common materials in the world, so its use is not at all what makes the price soar.<\/p>\n<p>Please note that we do not intend to demonize either luxury houses for setting those prices or their customers for paying them. Each one does with his company and with his money what he wants, that&#8217;s all. Our aim is to go a little deeper into a subject that arouses the curiosity of many fashion lovers.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-151006\" src=\"https:\/\/highxtar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/highxtar-overpriced-tshirts3.jpg\" alt=\"OVERPRICED TSHIRTS\" width=\"900\" height=\"900\" srcset=\"https:\/\/highxtar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/highxtar-overpriced-tshirts3.jpg 900w, https:\/\/highxtar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/highxtar-overpriced-tshirts3-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/highxtar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/highxtar-overpriced-tshirts3-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/highxtar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/highxtar-overpriced-tshirts3-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/highxtar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/highxtar-overpriced-tshirts3-88x88.jpg 88w, https:\/\/highxtar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/highxtar-overpriced-tshirts3-508x508.jpg 508w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>To shed some light on the subject, we wanted to have the opinion of two people who are directly affected by this issue. We made a brief questionnaire to each one and their answers were very revealing.<\/p>\n<p>First, we&#8217;ll ask our dear friend <strong>Eric (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/ericyall\/?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@ericyall<\/a>), <\/strong>a regular on the shows of names like\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/highxtar.com\/riccardo-tisci-wont-leave-burberry-for-versace\/?lang=en\"><strong>Burberry<\/strong><\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/highxtar.com\/nicolas-ghesquiere-reinvents-louis-vuitton\/?lang=en\"><strong>Louis Vuitton<\/strong><\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/highxtar.com\/dior-presents-its-first-baby-stroller\/?lang=en\"><strong>Dior<\/strong><\/a>, among others, and whose wardrobe it&#8217;s worth to be contemplated. In the pre-COVID days he offered us an inside view of Kim Jones x <a href=\"https:\/\/highxtar.com\/no-vacancy-inn-x-stussy-back-to-the-80s-with-aap-nast\/?lang=en\"><strong>Stussy<\/strong><\/a> Miami event or <a href=\"https:\/\/highxtar.com\/burberry-ss21-connects-with-the-natural-world\/?lang=en\"><strong>Riccardo Tisci&#8217;s<\/strong><\/a> in London. No doubt that, as a regular customer of high-end brands, he is an authoritative voice to give us his view on this issue.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #00ff00;\">Highxtar (H) &#8211;<\/span><\/strong>As a customer, what has a Dior or Louis Vuitton cotton T-shirts that does not have other more affordable brands?<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff00ff;\">Eric (E) &#8211;<\/span>Probably nothing, if we talk only in terms of quality or durability.

I imagine myself describing a work of art. What season it is from, what its inspiration is, what references it has or what it represents, how it is made&#8230; Every detail is vital.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #00ff00;\">H<\/span> &#8211; <\/strong>Do you think anyone would be able to tell the difference between a Burberry T-shirt and one of lesser value by touch?<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff00ff;\">E<\/span> &#8211; At the mere touch, I don&#8217;t think so.

I would also highlight <a href=\"https:\/\/highxtar.com\/ingenuity-and-innovation-in-loewes-new-collection\/?lang=en\">LOEWE<\/a>, which is even better than LV and its price is notably lower.
