I order my T's from a yankee shop called "pro club". They last me about 2 years or so for me, but then start to develop little holes. Probably easily fixed with a sewing kit. They're pricey though. The shirts look cheap cause it's in USD, but they really aren't. And however much you spend, that's also basically the price of shipping. i.e if you order $100 of T-Shirts, you'll pay another $100 in shipping = $200. Now double that, and that's your total cost in Aussie dollarydoos after tax.
For shirts, socks, and undies, I go with Kmart special. I get a few of the $10-$20 Kmart chinko shorts once a year, similar story with undies. My socks (thick workwear ones), have actually lasted me about 3 years at this point and haven't even worn through. The older ones feel a bit more compressed, but they're still completely fine. They were good purchases. Also from Kmart
