Proven: men spends more money on clothing than women

Do you feel guilty again when you come home and see your huge H&M or Zara package sitting there, while you barely remember what you ordered? Don't do it. In fact: just order.

Because men spend overall more money on clothing than women. Ha, there goes that eternal debate between man and woman. On average, a guy spends about 73 euros on clothing in a month and a woman 66 euros. And that's not all. Men also end up spending more per item. For example, if you look at a pair of shoes: those vain men of ours just want good footwear under their delicate little feet. Therefore, he quickly spends 77 euros per pair. Women can also occasionally buy an expensive pair of boots, but compensate for that with some cheaper ones. Thus, they spend an average of 63 euros on one pair of shoes. Nice figures. You could tell him, if it suits you, about that package in the hallway.

Now it happens that I indeed have a guy who quite likes shopping, even though he jumps high and low to vehemently deny this as soon as he reads this. But it’s true. Weekly packages full of shirts in shade blue number 82... It doesn't surprise me anymore. Shoes? His favorite brand has them in 93 colors in the closet. And then jackets. Man, man, man, he thinks every month again that he needs an army green jacket. In multiple forms, sizes, models, and lengths. Anyway. To each their own, with the great advantage that he never has to look at me sideways when I walk around in something new. Besides, I no longer try on nice clothes and therefore buy very little, so he has a complete head start. I may catch up in the summer.

By the way, he can't help it: he gets inspired by the men around him. In North Holland, men spend the largest part of their monthly salary on clothing. In Brabant, they are the most frugal and care a little less about which shirt they wear again. Fortunately, the shopping addiction of the man of the house is not so drastic that I have to consider moving to Brabant, but a night away to Den Bosch can't hurt, I think. Who knows, he might learn from it. Proven: men spend more money on clothing than women: Amayzine.com.
