bruh... Opera was bought out by a Chinese conglomerate, consisting of an "internet security" company, Qihoo 360, and a web game developer, Kunlun Tech, back in 2016. Between 2018 and 2022, Opera operated predatory microlending apps in Africa, as part of China's neocolonialist "debt-trap" strategy.

Yes, it’s mostly because production has been cheapened and fast fashion became even faster. Remember how back then clothes used to be released as collections? Now every day there’s gotta be a new piece of clothing, which lead to them being made with less care, by cheaper, usually illegal, labor in sweatshops.

From the 50s-00s cultural change was revolutionary, which made the new feel exciting and the old feel redundant. But since then culture has become iterative. It’s like how phones are way better now, but they aren’t exciting the way they were in the 00s where every year there was killer new features.

There's a case of survivorship bias to the quality argument too. The only t-shirts you see in thrift stores/vintage shops are the ones which were made well enough to last that long - everything else disintegrated. That said, there absolutely has been a race to the bottom in terms of manufacturers cutting costs by any means necessary as well as speeding up the trend cycle; fashion was a lot slower back then. If you look up the stats, people used to buy far fewer pieces of clothing AND spent a higher percentage of their income on it. Vintage leather is GOATed tho. It's cheaper, already broken-in and arguably more ethical. literally zero downsides

Leather requires a shitload of chemicals and killing an animal, often one used for meat. While faux leather is plastic eco-waste real leather really isn't more ethical or sustainable. Also while even some vegans argue in favor of second-hand leather I don't see the same argument for fur, and I wouldn't be comfortable wearing second-hand real fur either.

This is a phrase I will gladly die on a hill for. So many things in general were made so much better, even a few decades back. Trash clothes from the late 90s/early 2000s feels like premium shit compared to similar stuff now. Like you can definitely still buy quality stuff now, but its always charged at a heavy premium just to have the chance to own something that isn't F2/Zara quality.

A weird thing I heard about nostalgia and aesthetic come-backs is that everyone who was a kid during a given era grows up and gets work in design. Then they bring back styles from their youth. Then everyone around that time who doesn’t work in design are the main demographic with disposable income. All this money is being spent on stuff from these designers’ childhoods, and it creates the trend of an era comeback. It’s also possible that this revival makes a future generation nostalgic for a given aesthetic because they ended up growing up with the revival of it. That’s how the 60’s-70’s and now even 80’s can have multiple comebacks. It’s gonna be weird seeing kids growing up in the 2010’s bringing that stuff back. I think it’s gonna be pretty cool. Can’t wait for the zoomer 2024 comeback with skibbidi fashion trends.

Quality issues in relation to the idea of "they don't make 'em like they used to" is valid and imo very true. I think the reason that people have such intense nostalgia for previous decades is that style in terms of fashion, cars, graphic design, etc is because the modernism vibe that is so prevalent today is just so fucking boring. Minimalism is boring af and ikea type modernism is fucking boring. Shit is fucking boring. So when you see older stuff that wasn't so fucking boring, it's really refreshing and hopefully everything stops looking and being so fucking boring

As an older guy creeping up on 50yrs old who loved fashion for decades I'd have to say, old clothes are "better". The issue is the reason WHY they were "better" is key. #1 The internet. We had no choice but to be more original because access to information was not at our fingertips like it is now. If we had the internet or it was as good as it is now (for the 2000s and up crowd) we would have pulled from the past a lot more. #2 Inflation. We had better quality at a cheaper price because everything was cheaper. #3. No real fast fashion. We had cheaper brands but they did not usually replicate the current trends with the accuracy they do now. Because of that most people bought better quality clothing and it was cheaper than it is now. Some bought cheaper clothing but they were not usually into fashion or just couldn't afford to be. I think "better" only really applies to quality and then only in terms of how much quality one can get for a certain amount of money. You can still get quality now, it just will cost more and you have to look a little harder. There are brands that still deliver good quality at a decent price like Champion and Uniqlo.

i mean, i don’t necessarily disagree with what he’s saying, but quality HAS gone down. my argument isn’t that “past fashion is better because now, look bad,” because i actually adore the variety of styles, and greatly appreciate the internet for increasing access to smaller businesses, esp bc i like alternative fashion- but big fast fashion companies continuously steal *cough* (we know who i’m referring to) designs from these smaller businesses, and copy to mass produce them with HEINOUS quality. i dont believe all polyester is bad, but a large *majority* of polyester is poor quality simply because of the mass production synthetic materials have facilitated. and it's not just low end fashion, luxury brands like gucci and chanel have had a noticeable decrease in quality WHILE THEIR PRICES HAVE SIMULTANEOUSLY INCREASED?? and even beyond their aesthetic design, they just don't last, ex: (not mine, something i came across on the internet) that one $2000 gucci skirt that's dry clean only, got a stain, and had to be thrown away, chanel's new handbags having hardwear that's already scratched before purchase/breaking after a couple wears i don’t have a particular time period (20 years ago, 50, 90, whatever, i’m literally just 17) in mind when i say “wow, now kinda bad”- i just know whatever we’ve got now, holistically, ain’t it.

“The past is a foreign country; they do things differently there.” Quote by L.P. Hartley. I like that we miss and appreciate old stuff like clothes or music etc, but I think the times were completely different. If things of that style would come out today, not as nostalgia bait, but as genuine products, we wouldn't like them. Time is flying and everything changes and we have to change as well. We miss 90's but kids in 30 years will miss 2020's, natural way of live. We get everything that's fit for our current culture. 90's had deftones, longsleeves and neon painted cars, We have playboi carti, loafers and electric cars. Times are perfect, we just have to appreciate them.

im picky as shit when it comes to material and fit, and how it feels on me. so when i try and buy a brand new anything, its a hassle because the thing is 90% polyester (no breathability or loosening over time), no space for natural body fat, and its done in such a way that I often can't alter them! And for some reason women's clothes keep changing sizes, having less fabric for space, thin af, piece a shit designs... of course im gonna thrift that 90s jcrew top, its 100% cotton! nearly caved for a full silk top at a 5th avenue...it was $400...i bet i could find the same thing from a decade ago in a thrift store (thats NOT goodwill) for much less. Found a dream pair of vintage jeans in a thrift store, they didnt have my size, im still looking for it! It doesn't help that i miss a lot of my lil kid closet (2K-2016), so if anything reminds me of fashion styles i look up to, imma try and buy.

Лично меня в вещах из прошлого привлекает то, что среди них банально легче найти так называемые timeless референсы. Если говорить о том, что популярно сейчас - то бывает сложно сказать, будет ли это актуально через лет 10. Те стили, что находятся на хайпе надоедают людям спустя 2-3 года - тот же горпкор, логомания, пресловутый олдмани. Даже в контексте одного стиля меняются актуальные силуэты и вещи. Поэтому я стараюсь составлять гардероб из может быть не таких выделяющихся и цепляющих взгляд вещей, но которые будут смотреться хорошо вне зависимости от трендов. А среди old clothes банально больше встречается такого. Мне кажется это тоже важный фактор, почему старые вещи привлекают больше

As someone who is not hampered by nostalgia, I do feel that older items are better; both in design and quality. I struggle to find items of quality that are not at a luxury price point even if they are a relatively standard design such as a single breasted wool coat. I am aware this is partially due to living in a backwater location but there has been a noticeable loss of quality and character over even just the last 8 or so years.

Well, I think it's also some survivorship bias. The quality could have been horrible back then as well, but the difference being that only the good quality and good looking pieces lasted. For example, if a shirt got given to goodwill or a thrift store, but it was kind of a mid or bad shirt nobody would choose it and it would get tossed. All the clothes from the 90s or early 2000s already had 1 or 2 owners and they pass through this filter of customer tastes. What we end up seeing in the real world is the top 1% (probably wayyyy less) of literally 100s of millions of pieces that were made in that decade. Even then, think about the amount of junk you sift through to find a shirt you actually somewhat like. Those are all clothes of that generation. If you went to a store in the mall I guarantee you that the mid in that store is better than the mid in the thrift shop.

Survivorship bias plays a lot in the old stuff (clothes, buildings, whatever) is better argument. If a shirt was garbage, it probably wouldn’t survive the 20 years it takes to become y2k vintage now. So a shirt you see needs to clear that hurdle before you even see it. This biases the sample towards good stuff. Same with buildings. You see an old house and say “old houses are always so well made” but actually, only well made old houses are able to survive long enough for you to see them. The super badly made old houses collapsed and the super ugly old houses are more likely to be torn down. In 20 years, all the temu trash will have turned to sea turtle pesticide mush and only better made clothes will have survived. 2044 kids will be saying “they made stuff better in 2024” as their super Shein AI enabled tin foil coat visibly falls apart on their shoulders.

They're firm, sturdy, thick, with solid construction - but because of continued wear, they also have a very comfortable feel. If you're not going for some coveted music / sports merch, you can easily find a vintage T with an interesting, attractive design for less than what you'd pay for a T at Gap or at Uniqlo. The only disadvantage is that because older Ts are thicker, you might find yourself too warm on the hotter days we have in the summers we get now.

It’s wild I can’t buy anything online without finding out the cotton weight or gsm . Ive noticed some places don’t even list the materials they make the item out of !! wtf . Noticed an uptick of things being listed as 100% cotton but it’s actually a polyester blend when you get it , most recently a brand said they wouldn’t accept returns even though the description of the item was wrong… just feels like everything is meant to look like clothes but not really be the clothes 😂😂😂

I think we’re at the end of this civilization and the 90s was the peak of all our creative ideas and everything had basically been done. The only thing left to be new was the iPhone and internet. To simply log in all the data from the 1900s y2k and the Mayans was all about this very momen

There are some great things from each decade but clothes are far more advanced in many ways, especially materials used. Things should be judged on a garment by garment basis

I honestly believe the difference between fashion photography in the 90s and early 2000s and now makes a huge difference to how we perceive the clothes, especially now that most photos are just taken on phones

You can’t tell me that a 90s Brockum blank isn’t heartier and more flattering than a Gildan that you’d get at a modern concert that disintegrates after a few washes.

I think a big part of why people get stuck on retro aesthetics, or nostalgia in general, is because the past is mostly settled, which makes it comfortable. We know what's what, which sides won, and that makes it a whole lot easier to think about.

I also like that it was likely local to semi local factories that were employing our citizens. A kid could get a job and become a tradesman on textiles without having to go into a ton of college debt.

You can buy high quality stuff today sitting on your couch from your phone and it gets sent straight to your door. Just do a little research.

Its difficult to really guess if things were actually higher quality in the past, or if we are just seeing the things that have survived the test of time due to survivorship bias though too.
