A place to share practical, durable and quality made products that are made to last, with an emphasis on upcycled and sustainable products!

Guidelines:

Things that are well-made and durable (even if they won't last a lifetime) are A-Okay!

Unlike that other BIFL place, Home-made and DIY items are encouraged here, as long as some form of instruction is included in the body of the post.

Videos links are not allowed as post titles, but you may use them in a text post.

A limited amount of self-promotion is accepted, IF the item you are selling aligns with this criteria:

  1. The item must be made with sustainable or recycled materials.
  2. If electronic in some way, the item must be open-source.
  3. The item must be user-serviceable (if applicable).
  4. You cannot be a large corporation.
  5. The post must be clearly marked with a [Self Promotion] tag in your title.

I am getting a bunch of next level t-shirts from jiffy shirts. I would also like to get some polo shirts. Do folks here have recommendations on similar value for money polo shirts? Searching through the archives of , I could only find recommendations for t-shirts and not collared polo shirts.

I am not really looking for BIFL, but something that is generally durable and good value for money.

I found piqué fabric generally less durable or at least more prone to quicker looking worn out than other fabrics. So BIFL polos are something I gave up on.

That being said, I‘ve gotten some good mileage out of Fred Perry and Lacoste Polos.
