Lol; it’s really not. Have you seen UA original dri fit workout shirts v. Nike, Adidas, Russell Athletics, etcs? UA dri-fits use to chit on the other brands b/c there are certain properties that were patented that others couldn’t touch, therefore the same quality & response wasn’t there.
Yes, most of these companies use sweat shops and out sourcing....but that’s only for cheap, mass production. That has chit to do w design, creative, material properties & intellect. It’s why you can tell some knock offs every easily, even when the design is similar. Color, hues, textures, print, etc. etc. all go into manufacturing.
Sorry to snap, but that argument really bothers me to hear ppl say that. If u wanna talk about price points, & how we are all gouged by an uptick by their profit margins, that’s one thing, but saying it’s all the same is not accurate at all.
