"they cost ten times as much" ?
Hi,
I don't get what young Asians do exactly when they wear substitute t-shirts? And which one becomes more expensive in the process of producing?
After all, young men in Asia were shunning the Crocodile and Three Riffles t-shirts they had worn for years in favour of Lacoste and Ralph Lauren Polo t-shirts even though they cost ten times as much.
Regards,
Nesa

Hi Nesa: Some manufacturers or designers put their emblems on their clothing and accessories. These can be huge status symbols. If you wear something with one of these emblems, you are saying to everyone, "I am cool.

nesaSo you mean those youths want to ignore the new western brandsNot really - the Crocodile and Three Riffles t-shirts are old fashioned, and not trendy. The Asian youth will not wear these.
Lacoste and Ralph Lauren Polo t-shirts are the latest fashion. They will wear these.
