Rogo, I wore Carhartts for over 30 years as my outerwear for work. I still have a couple sets of Carhartt Arctic Wear coveralls, jackets and bib overalls hanging in the garage. I have one nice Carhartt jacket that I wear occasionally during the winter, even though winters here in Northern Kahleeforneeya aren't all that cold... (usualy in the mid-30's) but after 20 years here, I've become "Californicated" and get cold at anything below 50...;)

I wear what ever the wifey brings home to me. I don't care to think too much about clothes.

I buy stuff at Express Men if it's on sale.
I buy Structure brand stuff from Sears
I buy polos, shorts, socks, underwear, undershirts, and exercise clothes at Target
I buy some stuff at Kohl's
I buy some stuff at Costco

I don't know what this nonsense is about clothes from Abercrombie and what have you "lasting longer." The overpriced crap they sell goes out of style before it could wear out anyway, and I've never had any of my cheap clothes fall apart.

Ugh...farming...never could deal with that...I spent 2 weeks cutting lentils one summer near Colfax when I was an apprentice between jobs. That was enough for me...;)

Polo and Banana Republic. My wife shops. I just wear whatever she brings home. She seems to prefer these two brands.

None of the above. Mainly buy from h&m now cause nothing fits me from all the other stores. Gap use to be good, then they went "emo" or something...

1) Banana Republic for my casual and business casual clothes. I like the style (not too trendy, but still interesting), quality (above that of Gap and most other similar stores, imo) and variety.

2) Brooks Brothers for business. I have a few suits, tons of dress shirt, etc. from them. I have dress shirts from almost 6 years ago that still look brand new. I have dress shirts from Banana Republic as well, but they don't even come close. Nothing beats my BB shirts.

3) Diesel for my jean. They fit well and have interesting styles.

4) Allen Edmunds for dress shoes and whatever else for casual shoes.

I've been buying Calvin Klein dress clothes recently.
Also picked up some Gap stuff this past year.

Not a lot of selection in this small city. We'll be getting a Kohl's in a couple months. I used to buy socks and underwear there back when I lived in Cincinnati.

I also like Express (expensive :() and Steve and Barry's :p

I went to Steve and Barry's because a friend of mine told me it was awesome. I left severely disappointed. Everything in the store was either wicked cheaply made (like walmart > s&b quality) OR Something I would never want to wear in the first place (tons of dumb t-shirts).

I wear whatever is on sale at Walmart or Target. I've never been into being with the hip crowd or worrying if my $60 jeans will fray a little bit or I might get a smudge on my $50 shirt when I work on my vehicles or around the house.

Whatever fits. That is the most important thing. I don't give a crap what brand it is.

Ecko Unlimited. comfortable and can withstand punishment and still look brand new. Plus the Rhino on the label is cool, Rhinos kick ass.

My shopping habits are almost identical.

Nautica jeans from CostCo are awesome.
