[quote=Anonymous]I have a few theories on this.

1.  Thin fabric costs less so the manufacturers make more money on tissue thin T-shirts
2.  Thin fabric doesn't offer any insulation so you have to layer more, thus forcing you to buy more clothing
3.  This fabric gets holes in it, thus forcing you to buy more clothing sooner.  It's planned obsolescence.

Personally, I'm done with it. I've had to throw so many of my favorite graphic T-shirts out because of the holes, that I really don't have that much to wear anymore.  And when I think of the money I spent on them, it makes me sicker.  It's happened to me with shirts from Lucky, Sundance and J Crew, so I'm not talking cheap, low-priced shirts.

I'm going to refuse to go along with the clothing manufacturers on this.  I'm not going to buy any more tissue weight T-shirts and I wish others would do the same.  I figure that it's better to have fewer shirts that will last longer than these pieces of crap they're trying to foist upon us.

I realize that there are more important causes in the world, but this is something that affects me on a daily basis and the clothing manufacturers shouldn't be allowed to get away with it.  [/quote]
