Banana Republic vs Guys Vision

Nowadays I seldom buy clothes....
Last time I will buy maybe 1 or 2 pcs of working shirt/year...
but now my company is giving out company uniform.. Good and Bad...
Good - No need to spend money for working attire......
Bad - The design and the colour wasn't so interesting..
Last month I went back to Ipoh to celebrate my mum's birthday..
After the dinner we went to the new Ipoh JJ.
Both my parents have not been there yet... so I just brought them there and look around..
I got these......
Banana Republic Polo T.......
It only cost me RM80/2 pcs..
actually I am a L size person but it looks nice if it tight fit so I bought M size instead... 

During the last Chinese New Year, I got a few Guy Vision T-shirts and shorts..
It cost abt RM9/pc (with 10% discount)...
I got 4 T-shirts and 4 shorts... 
Now I have use it for half a year and the quality is still good ..
the collar of the T shirt still have not wear off yet
and the elasticty of the rubber band on the shorts still good.......

    When I look at clothes in Malaysia, I get put off by the price. It's not even nice!
    When I think of casual attire, I strongly feel that nothing beats shopping at distros in Bandung, Indonesia. Distros are mini boutiques where local designers sell their designs. It's unique, quality & it's cheap. RM10 for a nice t-shirt/polo.
    I wrote a blog post about it & might go back in a few years time.

    the plus thingy about uniforms is we save money. but it can get boring as well.

    i remember my uniform days and I would spice things up with a scarf (that started me on my collection of scarfs and to date i have about 170 pieces) and shoes. Perhaps for guys, you can start with using shoes to spice up your uniform? Hehehe
