I would argue that wih cheap clothes, you need to replace them more often than more quality clothes.
All in all I'm not spending an extravagant amount on clothes.
I can tell you guys what I spend on clothes:
I have two pair of high quality Allen Edmonds shoes I alternate. I bought one for $400 and the other used for $88. These will basically last 20+ years.
My pants I have custom tailored from a company online. Indochio.com. $100 per pair, they are made in china, and are of decent material and quality. No the best, but better than off the rack.
Most of my shirts I generally purchase online as well. Blank-label.com. Also made in china, but custom tailored. $45-65 each.
I have two suits. One in charcoal which works well for a lot of occasions and one grey one for more casual occasions.
I also have one blazer which is extremly versatile and can be worn wih jeans on a Friday night.
These items certainly aren't super expensive, and I think one of the main things to notice is that they are tailored. Fit is everything. Fit makes you look like a million bucks.

lol okay I thought you were spending $2500/suit or something. You're not spending
that much on clothing. It actually sounds really reasonable. I don't need tailored clothes in my job, but those seem like good prices if I did.
