Pretty much this. Abercrombie & Fitch too, when it was still an outdoor supplier and not the teen trash it is now. J Crew as well, before it went full hipster.
Also Perlis, Lacoste and Sperry.

I can still wear pretty much anything I owned in the late 80's or 90's(if it still fit) and not look like an idiot. It's called being timeless.
Fads are for trash.
