Having met Sidoh multiple times and seen his FB photos, we shop at pretty much the same clothing retailers haha.
I'm with deadly on his sentiment against "Graphic T's" which plaster ridiculously huge branding on them... I remember it was maybe two or three years ago, I think during their spring/summer line when Aeropostale decided to triple or at least double the size of their "A87" logo on every product they sold. Normally I find their logo amusing since I was also born in '87, but I found it obnoxiously annoying, so that season I did not buy anything from them
. In fact, I haven't bought a "Graphic T" in a couple years now from any clothing retailer. But like Sidoh said, there's plenty of other types of shirts to buy depending on the season, albeit Graphic T's are the cheapest style of top to wear. I still buy mainly my clothes from Aeropostale, American Eagle, and Abercrombie (shit, didn't realize they all started with the letter A, WTF >_<). The quality is ain't shabby at any of the triple A's, but the prices are notably different amongst the three (listed them in order of cheapest to most expensive).
I can empathize with deadly even though I'm a few inches taller than him, I too find it difficult to go into a store and find smaller clothing sizes that fit me. The real reason I shop at the triple A's is because I'm lazy, apathetic to whether the clothing style befits me or not, and just want to get the whole chore over with. I can reliably walk out of the store with something that fits and not have put in a lot of effort; when I go to try on a size SMALL top/bottom or 28x32 or 30x32, size pant I am >90% confident that it's going to fit. Whereas at department stores and other retailers, size and fit varies greatly. There's a 25% probability that a size SMALL anywhere else is going to fit me satisfactorily, and I can forget about trying to find a X-SMALL in the color/print I'm looking for because that probability is even lower. Granted, I've found that I generally can't find clothes that fit ANYWHERE during major sales and clearance events, which is why I've stopped trying to buy clothing during these times.
