How do I get these annoying white streaks off my cotton trousers?

So these things just stay after I steam out the wrinkles and they never quite fade away. I know this is typical for 100% cotton but is there a way to get these out?

are these jeans too tight?

I bought these ct-101xs and while the waist feels fine, the crotch area feels tight-ish. What do you guys think? Are they too tight/should I size up? Would the crotch area stretch after a few wears?...

Looking for suggestions on my first decent pair of jeans

Hi everyone. I have always had trouble with pants and they are the main weak point in my wardrobe. I've gained a little weight, too, so all the pants I bought a year ago no longer fit well. I see this as a chance to try and get used to pants. Some cursory research indicates that I should just go on Amazon and buy some Levi 501's until one fits me. Previously, I have worn only Uniqlo jeans, but I will admit that the Japanese fitting style (I lived in Japan and could never find a decent pair of jeans for my liking) is a bit too slim and tight for me, and low rise jeans make me feel self conscious. That being said, I've run holes into all the jeans I wear near the crotch/inner thigh area. Most pants will only last me ... about six months, before the material down there chafes away. I'd like stronger stuff....

What type of fit are these pants called?

They have a nice flow to them but I can't find what the look is called, and I am trying to find more pants like these. https://www.abercrombie.com/shop/us/p/loose-pull-on-pant-59323538...

H&M Crew-neck T-Shirts

Hi, I'm looking to replace my old crew-neck T-shirts but I couldn't find any labeled "crew-neck t-shirt" on the H&M website. https://www2.hm.com/en_us/productpage.0945531012.html Are these the same thing? Will they be marked with "REGULAR FIT COUPE STANDARD" like the ones I have? And are they 100% cotton? Thanks...

Advice on what's happening in the shoulder?

Hey there! I got a new unstructured jacket from Spier today and I'm trying to figure out what's going on with the shoulders. It's unstructured and super wavy/wrinkly? Are my shoulders just not filling this out like they should? Or is this a construction issue? Seems like it fits reasonably well everywhere else minus the sleeves being a tad long. Thank you for any feedback!...

Should I size up this suit? Or lose weight?

I have this suit and it just feels tight like if I bend over or roll my shoulders too much it’s so tight it feels like it might rip. Vest is pretty tight too. I mean I feel like it looks good but do I drop 15lbs and keep it or go to a medium fit and get it tailored? Also I feel like my head looks huge...

Wool flannel trousers and durability

Hello, I have switched to wearing wool flannel trousers during the colder days of the year. I like that they are warm and can be dressed down since I don’t usually have a reason to dress formally. Unfortunately, I’m experiencing durability issues. My pair from Bonobos developed pilling near the crotch which I chalked to Bonobos being a lower quality vendor. But, now my pair from O’Connells has developed a pretty big hole. I called them and they offered to repair it for free but I would be responsible for shipping both ways. They said that it’s normal for the weave. Is this true? Should I be looking for a different weave? Or should I be looking for a different fit?...

Worth having these tapered?

Found these at gap factory of all places and dig the styling but the opening is too big for my liking. Is it worth getting a tailor to taper and hem or should I just find a better quality pair off the rack? Any other suggestions for this style?...
