Night In-or-Out, Wear Richer Poorer
Stay cozy in comfortable style.
How about a brand that’s mission is to bring customers confidence in comfort wherever they are. That is what the team behind Richer Poorer is all about- committing to a higher quality standard of cleaner, low-impact fabrics that are crafted with the intent for everyday wear (so they can be loved a little longer). The result is less waste, and ultimately better for the planet.
The crew over at RicherPoorer spent the last 2 years exploring and implementing ways in which they can be more conscious as a collection and as a brand.
INITAL IMPRESSIONS
Right from the start, the essentials and sustainable clothing from RicherPoorer had our crew digging the loungewear, geeking out over the Tops & Tees, and eagerly awaiting the slide into the bottoms and underwear offered. Once you visit their website, you can see all the clothing Categories and Ways to Shop for all your quality and comfortable apparel needs.
Each item designed and developed by Richer Poorer features:
Low-impact fabrics
Saving of 40 plastic bottles from landfills
Less water used and recycled materials for low environmental impact
Right out of the box the lineup of shirts, pants, shorts, loungewear, and underwear were a must have/must wear wardrobe addition. The smooth feel of the material and the vintage-esq style and aesthetics are perfect for any weather. From lounging to dressing up a bit for the workday, the clean colors, perfect fit, and feel of the material is a must have grab from the closet.
Our initial duuude impression: sustainable meets sophisticated apparel
TRYING THEM OUT
Now that we have our essentials picked out from Richer Poorer, it is time to slide into some loungewear-and, well lounge a bit. Our crew tested and commented on the overall Construction, Material Quality, and Feel/Wearability.
Construction
The construction of these wardrobe items was top notch. The materials used are both eco-conscious and sustainable. The sew lines were clean, the feel was solid, and the fitting was there where it needed to be. The weight of the material felt durable but not bulky, and the items with moisture wicking capabilities are perfect for any weather.
Construction Rating: 9/10
Material Quality
Quality is key. When it comes to the material used in the shirts, pants, underwear and other pieces, the quality is here. We’ve all had those pants, shirts, sweats that never look the same after you wash them. Not the issue here. Each item’s quality is there, giving us a long lasting apparel item that can stand up to the elements both in and out of the washing machine. Some shirts due to the pigment dying come out a little different than the pictures, but we happen to love to unique color of each article.
Material Rating: 9/10
Feel/wearability
Here is where the rubber meets the road- Our crew tossed on shorts, shirts/tops, lounge pants (aka sweats) and wore them in and around the office. We could not have been more comfortable. We will say- if you don’t like the feeling or look of a looser fit, these may not be your style as they are not for the fan who wants restricted fits. You could go down to eliminate some of this though.
Feel/Wearability Rating: 10/10
Our crew dug the apparel and would say our favorite pice from Richer Poorer is: Men's Thermal Slub Cotton Long Sleeve Henley

BRAND INFO
We’ve spent the last 2 years exploring and implementing ways in which we can be more conscious as a collection and as a brand. Our ethos on sustainability is that it reaches beyond organic fabrics and exists in our relationships, our evergreen silhouettes, and our commitment to quality and comfort. Learn more about how we define sustainability below.
“We call the crashing waves, dusty deserts, and lush woods of Southern California home. At times, it’s easy to get caught up in our day-to-day and take for granted stepping in and out of its natural beauty. We make an effort to hold ourselves accountable for being more responsible in protecting our surrounding environment.”
