A pair of jeans costing 8 pounds is better made and durable than a 123 pound pair. Shocked? Yes that is the truth.

After testing ten pairs of jeans and ten polo t-shirts, the quality of the high street clothes and found that supermarket and so-called value retailers performed better than designer names. The garments were tested in a professional laboratory, used by the fashion industry.

The jeans ranged in price from 7 pounds to 123 pounds, while the polo shirt ranged in price from 12 pounds to 85 pounds. In both cases, the cheap versions of the clothes generally fared better than the expensive versions.

The garments were tested in 15 different trials, which analysed their colour fastness, their seam strength, how much they shrunk after wash and their resistance to abrasion.

It is clear that there is no longer a link between quality and price. It may not have been the cheapest clothes that won, but it definitely was not the high priced branded stuff.
