Why aren't there more bl9ogshops for men?

Here are a couple of interesting thoughts, from the Hardwarezone Forums:

Especially this reply from yswrox:

here are two group of guys when it comes to clothes.

First group are the bo chup kind, they don't really bother about what they wear. This is the group that won't shop online, thus will be unapplicable to your blogshop.

Second group are the kind who care about quality, and good quality more often than not is branded. Thus, this group will also be unapplicable to your niche market because they will only go for brands. So even if your clothes are of good quality, their mindset is already set to believe no brand = poor quality.

It's not that there aren't blogshops for guys, but quite often they don't get enough business to survive. I shop online, but I prefer to buy from sites that I'm familiar with and those that are reputable. Like urbanoutfitters and asos. People have bad impression of blogshop apparel's quality.
