I have two disclaimers before I get started. First, everything I'm about to say about these brands is my personal opinion. Second, everything is subjective. What I find valuable may be different than what you find valuable. I'm not saying that these brands are bad or evil or that you shouldn't wear them. I'm just saying that I personally feel they're a bit of a rip-off. So not only will I tell you why they're a bit of a rip-off, but I'm also going to give you a better option that's more affordable and of higher quality.
Don't get ripped off by the big ten!
Zara and Top Man. Zara's clothing looks good, and the fit is okay, but the quality for the price that they're charging is sh!t. With Top Man, it's fast fashion, the quality is horrible, and the price isn't inexpensive. Better alternatives include H&M and Forever 21. The stores are similar in quality, fit, and styling, but the prices are more affordable.
Aldo. I used to love Aldo when I was first getting into style, and it's where I would look for some cool and badass designs. But the quality before was much higher than it is now, and the price is still not inexpensive. The construction is terrible, with horrible materials glued together. This is also the case with Macy's brands; the quality has gotten so poor. I recently went to DSW, and my head almost exploded from their lack of quality.
John Varvatos. I like the style of the clothing, but I don't like the price for the quality you're getting. You can find the same quality for one of their $1,000 jackets at Thursday Boot. Thursday Boot is even better than All Saints -- and you know I'm an All Saints fan.
Louis Vuitton. A lot of Louis Vuitton that you see people carrying is fake because Louis Vuitton is one of the most counterfeit products out there. If you opt for the real one, you're going to spend thousands of dollars for something that isn't even leather. It's literally canvas wrapped in plastic. A lot of other brands make excellent wallets and bags that are super crazy high quality and are all leather.
Gucci, Prada, Balenciaga. People are getting caught up in these big hyped-up brands. They are losing their minds over trendy items they will not wear after 6 months. If you only wear it once, maybe three times, that's a rip-off.
Men's Wearhouse, Joseph A Bank. These are rip-offs. The quality could be better, and the price is high for everything they sell, including shirts, shoes, and suits. When you visit Macy's, you'll see the quality of their suits is not there, and the price is high. So check out Suitsupply, which you can't beat the quality and price. Their aesthetic, fit, fabric, and construction can't be touched.
Versace. Hugo Boss. They need to be higher in quality for what you're paying, so they are not worth it.
Omega. These watches are not worth the price they are charging. One indicator is that the used or pre-owned is half the price you could buy in the store. The watches are pretty sick but are overpriced. During the pandemic, people were getting totally ripped off because pre-owned inventory was low, so people were getting caught in the hype and spending way too much.
Calvin Klein, Tommy John. Pretty much any super premium luxury underwear is a rip-off. They look good, but many better options are available that are high quality and more affordable. Sheath underwear is incredible with a dual chamber pouch, making your junk look gigantic. They're not cheap, but they're less expensive than some of the premium brands. I still like Me Undies, which are a little bit lower quality, but the price isn't as crazy.
Polo, Lacoste. The quality isn't there, and the price is really high for what you're getting. To get the best for your polo buck, opt for H&M, which makes a decent polo for the price. The fit is good too. You'll not wear them for 20 years because they'll wear out, however.

Have to disagree with the mention of Omega on this list. Yes their prices have increased, but so have their movement quality and general innovations in watchmaking. And although Rolex have a better brand power, even Rolex owners don't deny that the technology of Omega is much superior. As for affordable tee's, I used to buy lots of H&M & Zara...up until I discovered Uniqlo. It sits somewhere between them in terms of price, but the quality is of much more expensive brands. It's definitely worth a shot if you're looking for value for money clothing that'll last long.

In what world is Omega a rip-off? I’d be interested if you could name a brand that offers the same quality movement in that price point or lower. The drop in price was due to the availability of supply that Omega strives to provide customers who are interested in their products unlike Rolex which you cant buy any of the models at the AD, hence the price appreciates. A simple research would go a long way.

I will highly disagree on the one for omega. I think that the watches are definitely worth the price they are paying, and actually worth much more. I’m not surprised they depreciate in value after their preowned, that’s pretty much the norm with every brand except Rolex. Plus in my opinion omega watches are better than Rolex watches, especially the sea master versus the submariner. The sea master gives you more features, more options, as far as color strap, and case material, yet only charges more for either the bracelet or different metal options. Rolex will charge more for changing the color of the bezel.

Great topic, thanks for calling out these over priced, over hyped, poor quality brands and companies. What disappoints me the most about a lot of men's clothing is what happens after a few washings. Most of my clothing is washed in cold water and I use a good brand of detergent. And I never use the dryer. All my clothes are hung up to dry. The disappointing part of this story is that I still find seams coming apart, loose threads, and buttons that need to be resewed. And very poor quality zippers, (even in higher end clothing). Most main stream clothing companies have learned this about the way consumers shop. Make the design attractive, low pricing, cheap fabric and zippers, splash our designer name all over it, and they will buy.

@josetula7716 Жыл бұрын

Omega, really. One of the few luxury watch makers NOT company that keep pushing innovation and build quality, but still retail for half of what one pays for a Rolex you love so much? Yes Omegas for the most part devalue when used. Most assets do, that's why most watches are assets, and not investments. Omega beat almost all brands when it comes to bang for you're buck.... new or used and will last for generations. Or should we be buying those crap fashion watches you used to push on us?

I am a long distance runner so I wear high quality running shoes so maybe I am use to a better fit. I did recently get Adidas 3.0s which cost less. They fit way better. Would like to see you a review on those. Anyway thanks for the advice.

Most big brands charge you for the label and not for the quality. I often ask my friends, what can an iPhone do that an Android can't? Apple fanboys reply with a counter question: Does a Rolex tell better time than a Casio? It's fashion over function, status over quality. Can big brands bring you high status? Perhaps. But aren't there other, cheaper, and even free ways to earn status and respect? Such as just by leading an honest life. Anyways thank you Alpha for making such eye-opening videos. When I was a teenager I used to believe big brands always implied higher quality. It's nice to understand how the consumer industry works.

I've loved Alphas content for over a decade, but I have to disagree with him strongly here on Omega. They have as good if not better far better fit and finish as Rolex,. They have longer heritage, and arguably better achievements. Furthermore they have better movements and complications, and they don't suffer through the BS that Rolex ADs are putting people through. Alpha is very knowledgable, but it has become very obvious that he knows absolutely nothing about watches. I defended him during his joke video about how MVMT/Vincero were better than Rolex since he was obviously being tongue in cheek. But at this point with him pushing Vincero/MVMT, and exclusively owning Rolex pieces. His opinion on watches should boil down to style, hype only. Which is a massive disappointment.

All luggage bags need to be given the airport test as they WWE your bags into storage. Nike and Vans shoes made in PRC are an utter rip off. Adidas shoe quality is good but the fit along with the natural movement of your foot is bad along side the issue that they deform as you wear it.

I never buy brand names. Not my style and I don't follow the mainstream crowd. I have my own thing.

Cuts and Thursday Boots are my top two companies that I would buy clothing and shoes from. Suit Supply for suits. Perfect Jeans NYC for Denim Jeans. Express have some nice clothing and style. Accessories. Watches: Rolex, Tissot. Belts: Anson Belt. Wallets: Carl Fridrick. Sunglasses: JadeBlack.

What are the thoughts on Brooks Brothers around here?

I buy, on occasion, the higher end brands you mention. You can find amazing drip but you do have to look for quality and luxury materials. Then it’s worth it. Outlet stores and lay season ales are your friends. Tip for ya’ll, stay in the accessories and occasion items. Don’t buy a $300 Burberry T shirt, get the belt, you get more wears out of it. Buy winter jackets in the May. Buy swimsuits in November. My pool fit should’ve cost well over $1k. I paid less than $500. Didn’t know the Louie V bag wasn’t leather. That’s insane.

You should do one of these for workout gear

Balenciaga imo is an egregious ripoff. I also think the American Eagle/Hollister tier clothing you should stay away from too. People just spend too damn much when there are brands out there for the same price or less making way higher quality clothing

I.M.O. 129 Dollars or Euro's for a pair of simple sneakers is still a lot of money. Hehehe. Creed Aventus is the biggest rip off I've heard about so far.

This video has got me thinking Aaron. I really need to update my wardrobe but I don't have a lot of money or space to spend on outfits. What would be a respectable quantity of shirts, t-shirts, trousers, shorts and jackets so I can have a mix of smart and casual outfits without overspending?

One-three nice sets that match the season/event etc. keep color schemes close enough that you can mix and match. Also one nice jacket/shirt or good pair of pants can seal the deal and go less expensive on other items.
