"Buy the absolute best you can afford. Fine clothes will last ten times longer than cheap, shoddy merchandise, will feel and fit better, and of course will look better. A cheap suit looks cheap even when it's brand new, while a good one retains its appearance after years of wear. A good raincoat, tweed jacket, and flannel slacks actually improve with age and wear. It's a matter of quality."Elegance: A Guide to Quality Menswear, G. Bruce Boyer (1985)

So true.
Sage advice that one should always heed.
Agreed. Hate the new look-love the worn aesthetic.
Must admit that I don't always follow this correct advice myself but basically this is the very fundamental characteristic of men's wear in difference to lady's which can be more 'fashionable', capricious and 'farfallistically' changing...
