Clothes from Merz b Schwanen
Buck Mason is around $50 a pop and the closest I’ve found. I’m a Schwanen fan for life and still like the Buck Mason tees.

Why is it so hard to find well-made clothes that aren't insanely priced?
On one hand I've had a Uniqlo wool crew neck sweater for like 8 years that I paid 40 bucks for. 100% got my money worth. On another hand I have Filson brand wool sweater knit in the UK with wool from a sheep's first shearing. Also a sweater from Merz B Schwanen with merino and cashmere in the blend, knit in Portugal. I would rate both as extremely good quality. Both were around 300. You don't need to pay 700 for a sweater. And tbh a sweater isn't really a good candidate for buying for life. My Filson sweater I've worn really hard, hunting, camping, skiing, as well as casually. I've begun to have to do some darning on it and eventually it will wear out. Knitwear is not inherently durable IMO.

Good Quality T shirt?
Not sure where you live, so here are my top picks across the US and Europe. If you're in the US, Taylor Stitch is solid so is Lady White Co. In the UK, Spoke is great as they have a lot of different sizes. In France, GoudronBlanc makes what's probably the best tee-shirt there with their proprietary fabric. In NL, there's No Label which is quite minimalist with durable tees. In Germany, Merz b. Schwanen is worth checking out.

What Qualities do High-End T-Shirts Have?
Tubular knit is the modern day version, but loopwheel production is limited to the number of vintage machines/looms still working. Most are in Japan and Germany, so the price will always be high due to the labour costs. Tbh, even at £50 (in the sale) my Merz b. Schwanen loopwheel t-shirt is the best t-shirt I have ever owned.
