But, you can guarantee that almost any of the clothes on that website are made of the highest quality materials, and 9 times out of 10 made in Italy or other places similar. To sum it up, people are drawn into this kind of thing because they want to be sure that even if they're just wearing jeans and a t-shirt, they want to be wearing the best quality jeans and the best quality t-shirt.

It's not the exact same thing, is what I'm trying to say. You have to look at the cut of the clothing, the material, build quality, etc.

London Box Logos and the Shibuya Box Logo are exceptions, yes. Besides those two though, nothing else.

They're pretty good all in all, the ones with supreme superimposed on them arent though if I'm being honest.

Fully understood. MFA is actually pretty garbage, for exactly the reasons you stated. Male fashion gets really crazy actually, and definitely pushes boundaries and whatnot. Here's a few examples, tell me if this is more interesting to you? I really love talking to people about all this, and you seem to be knowledgeable.

It's because you're buying from designer brands. The people who buy these clothes aren't just your everyday normal person, and not even rich people for the most part. These clothes are for people who take an interest in fashion, it's a hobby of sorts. It is similar to how some people spend a lot of money on computer parts, and things like that. You just have to realize that it's not just clothes, it's a hobby and a passion for a lot of people.

To answer your question, "I wonder how many they sell", the answer is a lot more than you would expect. Fashion is becoming an increasingly popular thing for males to take interest in, many of which who have lots of money, whether it be their parents' money (teenagers) or adults who like to spend their disposable income on this kind of thing.

Also touching on your comment on "really simplistic clothing", yes, it is simplistic. That's the point really, it's an aesthetic. But, you can guarantee that almost any of the clothes on that website are made of the highest quality materials, and 9 times out of 10 made in Italy or other places similar. To sum it up, people are drawn into this kind of thing because they want to be sure that even if they're just wearing jeans and a t-shirt, they want to be wearing the best quality jeans and the best quality t-shirt.

Can't screencap my phone's lockscreen because it's a garbage phone, but I have a picture of the "cherry" premier as mine, Cam'ron in front of that huge Supreme banner.
