Interesting data, but it seems overly complex and could easily be simplified by having less clothes. Example I have so few shirts that I wear each one on a weekly basis. Because of the frequency I quickly figure out when a brand is not of quality and switch when necessary.
It also makes determining cost per wear much easier. If a shirt makes it through the year then the cost per wear is price/52.
Man this hit me right after discovering https://xn--gckvb8fzb.com. I feel like I need to start tracking thing I buy and how much I use them to really get a handle on my con00merism problem.
I wonder if there were any brands or items that were outliers in the cost to value metric? I prefer to buy nicer things that last a long time, but clothing is an area where cost is only loosely coupled with quality. Spending more doesn’t always get you more.
Not backed by data but I'd recommend Uniqlo and Patagonia. Engelbert Strauss (workwear) is also worth looking into if you're in the EU, some of their clothing can be worn casually and offer amazing value for money.

I have also settled most of my wardrobe on Uniqlo and Patagonia. I have some other stuff, but over 80% is from those two companies.
I assume the data was manually logged?
It’d be cool to have visual detection via a camera
