I really hope you find this video helpful! Would you want to see a video like this with other brands/types of clothes?
Hi, I loved this video and I’d like to see more videos like that especially brands that are more Europe based pls 😊
Actually I’d like to suggest a brand that I discovered a few years back called rapanui. 🙂
Loved it! Please do more! I loved that you didn't just look at brands that are based in North America, super helpful! Loved all the details!
This was very helpful!! A video about trousers, cardigans, jewellery, jackets, skirts, or something else would be very nice. Thank you Verena 😍
YES! In all categories of clothing and accessories haha
I wish that every youtuber who reviews clothing and uses the phrase "high quality" and "well constructed" would watch this video. This has given me so many tools for the next time I go clothing shopping!
Haha I often have trouble watching many youtubers review clothing - I always want to see and hear about the inside and seams! 😂
@@MyGreenCloset It would be nice! Beauty gurus are for the most part expected to have a lot of expertise on beauty products, it's too bad fashion channels don't have the same expectation for technical knowledge!
@@MyGreenCloset or them saying it's 'high quality' when just taking it out of the bag. How does it wear? Wash? Feel after a while?
And don't get me started on them calling something 'low quality' because it feels cheap while they didn't check the material composition.
I can imagine the amount of work that went into this, thank you for that, it was very in depth and informative!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Could you do the same thing for underwear and period underwear?!
I've been thinking of maybe doing one on period underwear if this goes well!
Please don't apologize for being picky, you've answered questions I've had about clothes I've bought in the past. This video is extremely helpful.
One more comment after actually watching the whole thing. I love how in depth the video was. I enjoyed the fitting details a lot. It was great to see you in all shirts for comparison. I also love that you included the ethical and sustainability factors. I’m so grateful for your channel and all the work you put into it. I wish CZcamsrs who promote Everlane watched this video. Thanks, Erin!
I'm so glad, thank you! 💚
O my gosh yea! The extensive fitting info is so so helpful!
It's so nice that there's a CZcamsr that remembers that potential customers might live in other places than North Amerca.
Erin, this is exactly what I’ve been looking for! Thank you so much! And yes to videos like this one with other brands/types of clothes. You’re the best!
Edit: almost 30minutes! Wow, you’ve put a lot of time and work into this video. I hope lots of people will find it helpful. I actually have had an Everlane question for your monthly chat forever but I always forget so thanks for including your opinion here.
I would like to see the same thoroughness in comparing different cashmere brands and merino wool brands. Thank you very much.
Oh dear. Where were you a few days ago when I ordered 6 everlane tees for the first time ever. Figure the odds. Lol. Great video. I’d love to see a video like this for jeans.
I would absolutely love to see more videos like this. Thank you for being nit-picky, never apologise for it. I love it and it makes choosing shirts and paying attention to details easier.
I had been thinking of testing and ordering sustainable shirts to review, but I definitely would not have had the knowledge and expertise you’ve got. Thank you so much for making this. 💚
This was so helpful, thank you. I's from Denmark like Organicbasics, and were planning to buy from a few t-shirts from them, but they are pricy. Happy to hear that they actually are worth their high price point.. over here clothes is more expensive and it can sometimes be hard to figure out if you actually get more for the money or if it's just the brand you pay for.
hi Erin, thank you for including Armed Angeles, it is one of the brands I can buy easily here in Europe and I like their shirts (and other clothes) a lot. I totally agree with your thoughts/research about Everlane, I personally would not support them as a customer. thank you for your great videos, they are very informative and give me so many great inputs of what to be conscious about! 🙂
I have enjoyed the in depth comparison as well as the inclusion of European based companies. Thank you so much for the very hard work. I have learned a lot from this video.
Great video. Yes, I would like to see more of this style of video with other products. Denim or cashmere would be interesting to see.
Also agree with denim and cashmere! An alpaca piece could be interesting to compare to cashmere like how we had a spandex tee in this video.
Yes. Denim please
I'm so late to this comment, but YES.
Yes, this is exactly what I have been looking for!
I have three Pact shirts. Two are like the one here, a light cotton with definite twisting. I don't mind, because I kinda like the slouchy look and the price is right for me. The third one is a thicker cotton and lays so well. It's one of my favorites, but it isn't available anymore. I never really thought through why it's a better shirt, but hearing all your descriptions of fabrics and sewing, I understand now. Thanks for doing this! I love research like this :)
So good to see you include Everlane... specifically because they get so much attention for being Eco when they are not. The guy who started the brand saw an opportunity with the word transparency and tied it in with a massive marketing campaign around the same time that the True Cost made the rounds. When bloggers and CZcamsrs started talking about sustainable and ethical fashion but not actually knowing a lot about what they were talking about, Everlane zeroed in on them and gave out a lot of free stuff... so they were included in everyone's "Listicles"...
For us at Trend Privé Magazine we have spent a lot of years trying to teach people what to look for, and Everlane always gets asked about. Now we can simply send everyone to watch this video! 😊 Thank You!!
Loved that you showed the bits like reinforcing the shoulder seam and how a person can test in store for themselves!! Very excited to find your channel. Well done, and keep going! (Request for white button up shirts, black pencil skirts, basic sweater and LBD so we can send people your way...)
I loved the indepth review! I also learnt alot about how to assess the quality of clothing so thank you x
Glad it was helpful!
This was super interesting! I really liked hearing about the technical construction side of the shirts, and the shoulder situation - I think shoulders and armpits are often places that don't fit right for me but it's easy to accept that its just how a style fits - doesn't have to be the case!
I found this video SO interesting! I loved how you went through all about the construction of the clothing and the way they fit. I think those were the most helpful parts because you have knowledge to talk intelligently about it. I will admit that when I saw a 28 minute video it was a little daunting, but while I was watching it it was all very interesting and pertinent, so I wouldn't have cut anything out. I would definitely love to see something similar on a more structured piece!
While I appreciated your shorter content as well, I quite like how in depth you went with these products and brands, especially the ethics.
I've loved Pact in the past, but I find that everything I've bought recently is verryyy hit or miss in terms of quality.
Great review and thank you for the time codes!
All I need is a hybrid between OB (shape, fit, stitch) and AA (100% cotton, clever shoulder support).
Meanwhile, garment suggestions:
Cotton hoodie
Button-up shirt
Flats
Turtle/Mock neck (Benetton has wool & cotton ones)
Sweater/Jumper
Thank you so much for taking the time you did to do all this. This was so helpful, and I learned a lot about clothing too!
Thank you for your time and the information! So many brands claim to be ethical and sustainable but it's hard to tell. And then there's quality issues, too. Thank you for takling all of these concerns.
This video was amazing! I loved it.
I loved this video! For an additional interesting topic, I would love to hear you talk about size inclusivity, for example, I love the look of organic basics but their size range is tiny and doesn't carry my size, which is such a shame :( Great vid though, would love to see more of these!
Loved this video and would love to see more!
Thanks so much for putting this together, it’s so incredibly useful! :)
Thank you for all the work you put into this video!
Very good video. Thanks for the work and sharing the info
I appreciate your detailed approach! Thank you for making this video
This is actually what I was looking for! Thanks for making this video
Great video! Thank you for all the hard work that you put on it!
Thank you so much for all the work you do! This was very helpful!
Love love love the details about the sewing quality of each top! I learnt so much ❤️ thank you!
I REALLY needed this video. Thank you SO much!!
This video is what I was looking for, thank you so so much 🤗
This is such a good video, I would love this for everything I buy! Thank you for making this
I really enjoyed it and love the recommendations based on so many factors!
Very informative! I really enjoy how the video was full of details and I liked that the video is longer so it doesn't feel rushed :)
This was a great video! I hope you make a series like this!
This was so interesting! I'd love to see more videos of this type.
So so informative! Thank you! I’d totally appreciate more videos like this :)
I just found your youtube and i'm so glad! The level of detail in this video was super helpful and informative!
This was a great video. Really appreciated the detail. It's helpful to see how you assess a garment for fit and quality so I can learn to do it for myself. I would definitely be interested in seeing more of this type of content
Great video. Thanks for the commentary on Everlane!
I love this ❤️ thank you so much for your effort! This was an amazing video!
Thank you so very much for such a incredible informative video. I have been trying to do my own research but you nailed it.
Amazing! Loved every second of this video. Very impressive
Love your videos! Very informative. I look forward to more like these!!
So interesting! Thank you so much for all of your hard work!
What an amazing and such a very helpful overview! Thank you so much!
So knowledgeable! Loved this! I just bought a serger and I'm trying to learn about sewing with knits so this was really interesting from that perspective too
This was amazing!! Thank you!!!!
What a wonderful, well researched and informative video!
Love it! I really appdreciate the 30 minutes format, et the comparaison between brands 👌
Amazing video. Keep up the great content. This is exactly what I'm looking for.
I thought it was going to feel way to long, but it flew by! Really enjoyed it!
Thank you so much for this video, I really appreciate the work you put into it. I loved hearing about the garments from the perspective from someone actually knows about garment construction.
Wow, Erin! Such an informative and much needed video. Thank you so much for your effort. It really helped me with my decision making. :)
Great with all the detail that will help me to judge garment quality in general which I find difficult at times. Would like to see similar videos for other basics as well. Every once in a while long videos are a must I think with channels as yours where information is a key part of the package. After all, this is not entertainment. Although, it IS entertaining... 😁
Thank you for all the hard work you put into this. This is exactly the type of information that I am looking for. I would love to see more of this type of thing. I’m just learning about ethical and sustainable fashion and your videos are extremely helpful.
thank you so much for this detailed video! I think it was really helpful and I always love watching your videos :)
I am SO glad I came across your video!! I've had an immense interest in the actually quality of sustainable clothes. I would love to see more videos like these!
Great review!
love this format! would watch similar videos:)
I've been shopping around online for t-shirts. It's like you read my mind. This was so helpful! Thank you!
This was great! I learned a lot from this video. Would love to see more similar videos like this one!
Such a helpful video! I learned so much. I would love to see more videos like this!!
Thank you so much for doing this kind of video! I have a hard time finding t-shirts I can feel good about buying and it was nice to learn about the quality differences in these brands.
Great video. I was literally just looking at these brands and you gave detailed, objective information that helped me make a purchase decision. Thanks!
Thank you so much for this work!!! I'm about to restock my t-shirts so the timing is perfect! And the length is also perfect, keep it up ❤️
Thank you for this video! So fascinating to see your educational background “in action” 🧐 loved seeing organic basics in the mix, have always been curious about their stuff ☺️
Love this! Thank you for putting all the hard work into this video. I’ve always wanted to check out organic basics and now I think I will. I’ve also wondered about Everlane as so many people rave about them but I didn’t think they were very ethical. Well done! 😊
Like you I really like all the detail and the real wear test you did. Thank you for putting in so much effort, time and research into this video. Valuable. 💕
I really liked this video and will likely refer back to it later. All the details about how the tees fit was super useful too!
This was so informative! Thank you so much for such a good video and getting into such detailed examination of all the t-shirts and respective brands.
Thank you for sharing this excellent and informative video with us! I've actually really longed for this kind of an in-depth analysis of garments involving not only a lot of expertise when it comes to garment construction but also a sustainability viewpoint. It's very helpful (and comes at a perfect time as I've recently been looking into some of these brands to replace an old t-shirt of mine). I'm looking forward to any possible future installments of this series.
This is a wonderfully made video on content I'm genuinely interested in. I'm happy to be a new subscriber and look forward to what you do next.
I love this in-depth review! Thank you, it was clearly a lot of work.
I'd been considering Everlane since I've seen so many people talk about it, but now I know better!
I especially enjoyed the part on the garment construction.
Hope you do more reviews like this.
I would definitely love more videos like this! It really makes it so much easier to make a conscious choice and i loved that you took all of the aspects into consideration :D
So many important details! This video was worth every second! Thank you.
I just found your channel and subscribed. I was looking for a video like this about t-shirts! Thanks so much.
Such a brilliant video, thank you. I found the part where you discussed the features of the garments like stitching very helpful as a way to determine the quality.
This is a great resource! I appreciate the effort you put into this. Sometimes I feel alone in caring about ethics in fashion so any time I find a channel like yours that cares and shares information with others, I get so excited! I would definitely watch more videos like this. I'm especially interested in jeans...
This was such a wonderful and interesting video! Loved the focus on the fabrication and the materials, and the analysis of the ethics and sustainablility were very informative as well. So basically everything. :D I vote for more of these videos! Thanks for the time and effort you put into it!
Thank you for all the hard work you’ve put into this video, I’ve found it really interesting and informative. I will definitely recommend it to my friends! Love from Europe 😊
Absolutely love this! Information amount and quality were spot on. Yes. I want more.
Thank you for this video! I really appreciated that you explained what of sewing goes into a high quality tee: now I know what to look for when I'm shopping.
First time watcher. Very thorough. Will watch again.
This video was awesome!!! It really makes it easier to decide between brands. I wish I had seen this before I decided on a black t-shirt a couple months ago, but I ended up with Kotn and I am so so happy with it!
I would love to see other videos like this one. SO helpful and informative.
this was really helpful, thank you for the work. thorough, critical reviews are so rare to find and i would love to see you do more of them. i am always low key looking to replace my old tshirts (but then i keep them yet another year..) and i can transfer the information to other areas of my closet as well. one thing i was missing was a mention of the size range of the brands. maybe you can add size inclusivity if you do another one of these reviews :)
I loved this video! It was super helpful and the details have given me knowledge about tshirt construction I would have never even imagined.
This was great! I am glad you included the links. To me the part about fabric, sewing and quality was the most interesting and important part. Thanks for providing so much detail and expertise.
Yes! This was so interesting! I love to hear your perspective on things related to sustainability and clothes, because I really trust your opinion and I see there is a lot of research involved.
Wow, what a Great video! I loved it! You put so much information and research in this video and it was just awesome to watch! It‘s a great guideline for me because I want to buy some new tshirts and that helped a lot!! Thank you so much and I would love to see more of that kind of videos.. with the buttondown? Great idea!!
thank you so much for all your hard work. You really helped me in my search for the right t-shirt. 🙂
