Or just buy whatever you want, but second hand. Not only does the manufacturer not get any of your money, but it's better for the environment to. Cheaper as well. Probably my best ever purchase was three pairs of Diesel jeans for £10 each from a local charity shop.
Someone needs to buy new at some point in order to make the second hand market a thing
Oh sure, but the point I'm making is that buying new should ideally never be someone's first choice. If you can't find what you want at a charity shop, ebay or whatever then buy new, but do check first.
