I’m torn about these shirts

I have been wanting a Collars and Co shirt for a long time now but couldn’t convince myself to pay $80 for basically a collar! Yes, I’m frugal. So when one of my suppliers started offering the same style for less than $30 retail I bought every color they made. I’m wearing one for the first time today. The comfort is fine. I did put on an undershirt because I was worried that the polyester material might be cool on a 38 degree day. If has a very slick finish that I am not a fan of honestly. I have never owned a Collars and Co but suspect it is the same material.

My problem is this, I realize that Collars and Co did the development work, did the advertising and built up the popularity of the shirt. They deserve to be reimbursed for all of that.

On the other hand, I suspect the shirt comes out of the same area and probably the same plant as the Collars and Co shirt.

My final justification was that it will be worn as a layering piece and only a small amount of the shirt is actually seen.

What are your thoughts on this subject?
