I still have that wool jacket with shoulder pads I never cut out — and it turns out that thing is better made than half of what's on the racks today. 🧵 I put nine forgotten 90s brands on trial against modern designer blazers and shirts — Sag Harbor, Koret, Norton McNaughton, Chaps, Lands' End, Worthington — checking hems, buttonholes, stitch counts, and waistbands with my own hands. Inside you'll find the exact seam allowance test I used to pull, a jacket that sold for sixty-nine dollars in 1996 that outbuilds a three-hundred-dollar blazer sold last year, plus the manufacturer behind names like Kellwood and Warnaco who quietly made half your closet without you knowing it. 🏷️ This works because it's not opinion — it's a two-second pinch test, a stitch count, a buttonhole you can hold up to the light, the same checks I used to run in a stockroom, now something you can do at Goodwill or the mall this weekend. If you've ever wondered why your black jacket and black trousers never quite match, or why that shirt collar falls apart in a year, come thrift with me — and subscribe if you want the next investigation before you shop again.
