I just cleaned out my closet for the new school year/season and I realized how much clothing that I am throwing out.

Things that don't fit me anymore, don't fit me well, hideous, out of style or don't get alot of play time.

Two Abercrombie Plaid Shirts
Tommy Striped Shirt
Some cheap White Shirt
Gap Stiped Shirt
Some Striped Short Sleeve Shirt
American Eagle Short Sleeve "Cowboy" Style Shirt

Yeah, that's probably $200 worth of shirts. I guess it's not that bad. The stuff I am throwing away are range from 2-3 years old so it probably got some major use at some point.

I also threw away about five pairs of jeans and replaced them with two good jeans (medium and dark wash) that go well with anything.

I'm trying to be more classic nowadays. Easy to wear, easy to layer and always in style.

So what are some things you've bought but now regret?

some cheap jeans and hoodies.

i bought them just because they are cheap. i find them now out of style, ugly, and doesn't really fit that well.

This pair of hideous platform pleather boots from that Ready 2 Wear store at the Eaton Centre near Old Navy when I was in grade 12. I don't know what on earth I was thinking. They're like hooker boots :( Waste of money.

All clothes I bought from about year ago or earlier...everything is too baggy. Went from XL to M in polos and sweaters. Bought about 6 dress shirts last summer that I'll never wear again - sleeves and body too long and huge in the waist.

medium-sized T-shirts or anything else too big,
jeans with 30-inch inseams,
Levi's jeans,
cheap socks that make my feet stink,
tourist T-shirts that say where I've been,
soccer jersies for teams that keep getting eliminated,
hockey jersies for players that got traded away,
a sweater with a duck on it.

kenneth cole shoes.
they look good but quality wasn't impressive and they got progressively less comfortable the longer i wore them. it was odd.

now i'm a ecco shoes guy. they rock.

Bullsh*it, i've owned 3 pairs of gucci sneakers never once had a quality concern. Even their dress shoes are top notch, personally the dress shoes are the best i've ever worn. I don't really wear the sneakers anymore cause they arn't my style, but I had a pair I wore pretty much all though highschool and they never craped out on me till years after I graduated.

- Lots of clothes I haven't worn (and no longer like/fit)
- Coach leather bag (practically brand new! I regret buying this one since I already have 3 Coach bags)

After many years of hasty shopping sprees, I've finally become a diligent shopper!

Logitech bluetooth wireless ipod headphones...althought I basically paid nothing for them since I got mine from CC & not BB. I still regret getting them since they eventually cracked.

the FM transmitter works fine with mine... I use 89.7 however i stopped using it because the Tape converter one was giving better sound quality..... I know it screws up the tape deck but i don't use for anything else....

No no my pair still lasts, just that the craftsmanship on the sneakers aren't what I expected from a $600 pair of shoes. The dress shoes are fine, just their more casual shoes.

my sister recently came back from china with a bunch of nockoff clothing. its all great except all the shirts kinda fit like belly tops. im not a very big guy (5'11") but this stuff bearly fits above my pants.


stuff i bought. hmm once in high school i bought a mechanic shirt that said max on it i think i wore once. also a bunch of pants i could bearly fit into just because they were on sale.

Had to resurface this thread.

I regret buying the black Lacoste runners I bought, they look ugly on my short, stumpy legs...a big waste of $80. I'll still wear them (to friends' place) because I'll kick myself everytime I see them if I don't.
