Why You Don’t Need Overpriced Clothes — And When to Replace Them
Let’s face it: most of us wear the same set of clothes on repeat — a few favorite T-shirts, a couple of trousers, a co-ord set, and a few shirts for going out. So the big question is…
Why are we paying ₹1000–₹2000 for clothes we’ll only wear for a few months?
If you’re someone who wants to dress smart, feel comfortable, and spend wisely — keep reading.
What’s the average life of a clothing item?
Most everyday clothes like T-shirts, shirts, and trousers are made to last around 6 to 12 months with regular use. After that, the fabric starts to thin, colors fade, collars sag, and the fit changes slightly.
That’s not a bad thing — it’s just normal wear and tear, especially if you wear them often and wash them regularly.
So instead of overpaying for one expensive item, it makes more sense to:
-
Buy quality basics at affordable prices
-
Wear them for 6–12 months
-
Replace them when they no longer feel fresh
It’s better for your wallet — and your style.
The truth about overpriced clothing
Big fashion brands often charge ₹1000–₹2500 for a basic shirt or tee. But most of that cost goes into:
-
Expensive packaging
-
Influencer marketing
-
Store rentals
-
Celebrity campaigns
-
Middlemen cuts
The actual cost of making the product? Often just a fraction of what you’re paying.
You don’t need to fall for that.
Why Factory Cart does it differently
At Factory Cart, we cut out the middlemen and go direct from factory to customer. That’s why we’re able to offer quality clothes starting at ₹69 to ₹299 only.
You still get:
-
Comfortable, breathable fabrics
-
Sizes that fit Indian body types
-
Styles made for everyday wear
-
Quick and easy replacements when needed
You're not paying for hype — just the product.
The benefits of changing your wardrobe every 6–12 months
Wearing fresh clothes regularly isn’t just about looking good — it can actually make you feel better too.
Here’s how:
1. Better hygiene:
Old clothes can trap sweat and bacteria, even after washing. Replacing them regularly keeps your skin healthier and avoids irritation or odour.
2. Better comfort:
Fabric gets rough or stretched out over time. A new tee or shirt feels better on the body and keeps you moving freely.
3. Mental refresh:
Wearing fresh, well-fitted clothes improves confidence. You feel more put-together — whether you're heading to college, work, or a casual outing.
4. You save money:
Instead of buying one branded item for ₹1500, you could buy 5–7 stylish, quality outfits from Factory Cart and wear a new look every day.

Clothes aren’t meant to last forever. And they definitely don’t need to be expensive to be good.
You deserve fashion that fits your life — affordable, wearable, and refreshable every few months without guilt.
That’s exactly what we offer at Factory Cart.
