A monologue on why knowing how clothes are made matters more than the price. The speaker buys Japanese-made garments, including a Real McCoy's t-shirt made by his friend Kent, because he trusts the factories, the yarn sources, and the craftsmanship behind them.

Now that you know the true cost of so many clothing brands, what do you decide to buy? I think the biggest thing is not knowing what the real cost of an item is, but rather knowing how it was made. So that's why the majority of what I end up wearing is Japanese. This t-shirt's from Real McCoy's, and it's my friend Kent who made it, who runs Real McCoy's, and that's all made in Japan. And the reason I buy that product is because I know the factories that were used to make it, I know where the yarn is from, and I know the quality of the goods. I don't even mind giving them their margin. I don't mind that they're making a big profit off of me because I know that the quality of the goods is true to what their brand is about. Those are the kinds of products I support.
