I Need Winter Clothing

I have no winter clothes...

Like... seriously... I have one Akademiks sweater and an LRG hoodie (which has shrunk noticeably since I washed it in these fucking ECU "top-of-the-line" washers and for some reason the zipper will not work now... thanks a bunch ECU, I appreciate the bullshit...) and that's it... other than that, I have no winter clothing... now I've come across a couple things I like but the bottom line is this...

Winter clothing is fucking expensive... with the exception of Champion hoodies (which you can get for wholesale prices) sweaters start out at like $70... I mean what kinda shit is that? Summer time is easy... $5 white tee, some $30 ball shorts and a fresh pair of sneakers and it's a done deal...

Winter time? Fucking $60-70 jeans (if you're lucky), $70 hoodie, $100 Timberland boots (for the low-low of course)... just look at the comparison... I really have no winter clothes... what the fuck?

And before we get into this whole argument about name brands, even bullshit namebrands like South Pole and Mecca start out at around 10 dollars less than all the high-price stuff, so that's not really that much of a difference if you ask me...

So anyway, I'm looking at Dr. Jays online and there's a lot of dope stuff up there for sale prices so I'ma probably hop on that this weekend and next week... (if anybody knows of any other places that sell clothing online for cheap or has a promo code, get at me) but in any event, the question I'm posing is this:
why does men's clothing cost so much more than women's clothing?

A woman can go to to a store and shop and spend like $100 and come back with a whole HEAP of hot shit... (I was watching my dude on Comedy Central the other day... that joke is still in my head) you can't say the same for dudes... (fuck you, you can't... I don't wanna hear none of that bullshit)... only thing I could shop for at a place like Target would be underwear... that's about it... meanwhile, women could cop a whole fucking wardrobe for under $300... why is it that women's clothing (and shoes for that matter) is always cheaper than men's? I'll never understand that...

Now it could be argued that women use less fabric but I don't see how that correlates when you have a $12 shirt for a woman and a $30 shirt for a guy... there's no way in hell my shirt uses twice as much fabric as yours... I refuse to believe that shit...

In any event, I need clothes so like I said... if there's any promo codes out there or any websites that sell stuff for the low-low, get at me...

Oh yeah, one more thing... I'm looking into getting some Coogi hoodies... anybody know how they run fit-wise? I don't wanna get a 3XL and that shit ends up looking like a 6XL (like Akademiks) or a fucking M (like LRG)... I appreciate it ahead of time...

Ya'll be easy...
