Resolved Question: 300 bucks for school clothes?

Okie dokie well im a 16 y/o male going into my sophomore yr in highschool but I moved in with my dad and he decided to give me 300 bucks instead of take me school clothes shopping… Im very happy that he decided this but idk what I can get for 300 bucks… I ONLY wear aeropostale, dc and etnies but this yr im deciding to be a little lenient… Im not a super concieded brat who only cares about his looks or anything, I just like to stay classy… I want to buy 8 shirts 2 pairs of shoes and 3 pairs of pants and I dont want to get tired of what im wearing and I dont want my friends to start thinking I got cheap so I will buy more every 2 months but If anyone knows any cheap name brand clothes then please share and im sorry but I WILL NOT shop at k-mart, wal-mart or the dollar tree for my clothes hehe I dont consider “starter” a name brand product… Also I hope it doesnt seem like I think 300 bucks isnt alot of money because it is quite a bit and im very excited that he is doing this for me
To sum it all up: I want to find name brand clothes for fairly cheap ($10 shirts, $20 pants and $60 shoes preferably) if I cant then I can just go with the regular prices but im trying to drag out $300 as much as possible… Thanks too everyone that responds
