I don't have experience with their long sleaves, but Goodwear's (http://www.goodwear.com/) short sleeve stuff is great quality. The heavy shirts are comparable in weight to IH tee's…

Backing Doug, solid basics all round from Uniqlo.
-
Yup. You'll probably be skirting the line of that "no sweatshops" provision, but their stuff hits on the other points.

Goodwear are super solid and not too expensive. Sizing is a bit all over the place. I can't remember what size I got, but it was L or XL. After a wash the fit was good.
Here's a long sleeve form them.
http://www.goodwear.com/long-sleeve-authentic-grey-mock-twist/Uniqlo are great for sweatshop type basics. Half my long and short sleeve t-shirts are from there. Also, most of my socks.

wonderful, thanks guys.

With all the vacant spots on Queen St. maybe it's time for me to open 'Lorrie's House of Awesome Denim and Sneakers' in Toronto. I'd branch out to Montreal, where it would have to be called, 'Lorrie maison de denim impressionnant et baskets'

Heavy 666s (25oz 'ers) or SEXIHXLSXA13s for my cooler month jeans?

I wholeheartedly support your Toronto based denim vision. We need some here.

i thought you own both of´em already?!…so you just deciding on which to wear or you talking about buying?
anyway, i think i´d vote for the SEXIHXLSXA13...just because i wanna see more evo pics of them and the sizing isn´t that "bad" imo... -
^ yeah i'm sitting on both pairs.
just figuring out which to dedicate the next couple of months to. thanks for the input mikec & (dark)babyknight. i might go with your suggestion finn. based on the fact that i am going to try to wear the busters in the 25oz denim for 2 yrs.
wow typing that just made me smile. not thinking about what bottoms i'm wearing makes my getting dressed so easy in the morning & saves me a few minutes. what? i'm a simple man

I support this message.
Also, I can photograph everything
Maybe you can go in where Roots used to be.

Urb, you are really keeping up with the news (on Roots) eh!
Queen St. will be good, but I heard the rents are exorbitant. Same goes for King St. west of Spadina where the young and mobile crowd lives/eats/sleeps…. -

there you go mate…SEXIHXLSXA13 now and during the next two years (starting in february/march) it´s back to the "devil made me do it" theme i´d say
the already well faded 18oz version for them hot&humid summer days and the 25oz monster for the other 3 seasons...sounds good to me!
