$450 sounds like Gucci or D&G or something. I don't think I would ever pay that much for a pair of jeans either. The most I've ever paid for a pair of jeans were $130, and that's just because that that's what they cost around here. Diesel jeans in a nice wash, new model. I would be able to get them for half that amount a year from now, from an outlet store selling irregular and test runs. And that's if I was a normal size, which I most certainly am not - I have long, long legs.
A quality hoodie (like Triple Five Soul or Pelle Pelle or something) costs me around $100-120. A good t-shirt is $50.
Shoes, if you want something durable and nice-looking, $120-150. If you want quality leather shoes like Lloyd's for suits and that stuff, they range at around $250 for the most normal (from what I've seen, never bought a pair of those)
This is Denmark, mind you, and paying $5 for a shake would be quite normal around here, if it's large and made with fresh fruit.
We pay over $5 for a Big Mac.
We also get free hospitals and doctors, money for going to school, and a lot of other nice things.
