Shein vs thrift store jeans - I was totally wrong about quality
I used to swear Shein jeans were fine for $12 but after putting my thrifted Levi's through 8 washes without any fading compared to the Shein pair falling apart at the seams after 3, I had to admit the $8 thrift find was way better. Has anyone else noticed the fabric feels totally different after a few wears?

Totally agree on the fabric thing. I bought a pair of Shein jeans last year and after two washes the color was already fading and the seams started to pucker. Meanwhile I grabbed a pair of Wranglers from Goodwill for like $6 and they've been through the wash a dozen times and still look solid. The denim on the thrift pair is way thicker and the stitching is just tighter.

Damn, never thought of it that way but you're totally right.

Damn @murray.robert you might be onto something. Always figured new was better but you just made me rethink that whole thrift store thing.

After two washes the color was already fading"... I mean, are we really expecting fast fashion pieces to last forever? They're basically disposable at those prices. Seems like a lot of trouble to go through just to save a few bucks on jeans.
