Subject: Re: Does buying a luxury item mean quality?
On a side note, I have been occasionally acquiring Indonesian batik shirts since the 1990's, and now own quite a few. I like them because the patterns are not only interesting (some might call them exotic), but extent across the front button separation and the pocket(s) without a hint of a mismatch or break. (I find it fascinating that this feat is taken for granted on shirts which can cost an order of magnitude less than a western-style shirt found in a high-end department store which tend to be grossly mis-matched). Some of those shirts have been washed dozens of times and I have yet to find one that still doesn't appear new.
