MODERATORS
The issue is that some of the brands are intentionally destroying unsold clothing so 'the poors' can't end up wearing their brand and I guess diluting the brand's reputation or something.
They should try making only 100 shirts instead of 1000 where 900 end up not selling fast enough.
or not making ugly overpriced shit
There are always a few people willing to pay a crazy price for some crazy nonsense garbage. I think it’s ok to make few shirts like that, but you have to make sure you actually sell all of them. Better not manufacture more than you can sell.
