How can I find 90s, 00s, or older clothes?

Helo,

Other than the brand (Lanesboro), 100% polyester, Made in China, and RN # (118731), there's no identifier and I don't know how I would order a similar or newer pair. I have a few articles of clothing like this, which I've always liked and used for a long time, but usually it's a hassle to find them, because they were custom or just some cheap non-brand at the time.
(see first image, looks small but is size M)

Also would like help finding a design like that 2nd image has, maybe instead put on some polyester or designed on some pants. I like that forest design work and color/texture of it, but the ones I have found are bland, childish, or cartoonish. I'd like to put that on some pants or a similar article of clothes. Even if it were only available for female, it would make a good gift.
(see second image, size unknown, just really liked the pattern and design)

Can anyone help or redirect me to someone who can make some proper clothes that aren't foreign and cost 1000$?.. Where would I go to get something re-created or ordered, if they are not available?

Opinion: I feel like a lot of new clothes are ****, very bland nowadays, and spotting 1 you like costs way too much. They are not for lean men/women, they're mostly for fat people now, or those who prefer to always wear pants. Others look like they are going to church. Online 'fashion' across everything looks like it involves going out and wearing a suit. I live near the tropics, why would I want to wear a damn suit everyday, and even if not, I'd just wear a sweater or some other clothing.

For example, when I bought hi-cut socks that are just the perfect length (go right over the ankles or even right below), the older ones used to have more width and made of a better cottonish material'. I had trouble finding them and once I found them, they are cheap, were very slim, made of cheap material, and they tend to constrict bloodflow in the feet even if they are the proper length.. (as if people who use these socks have tiny feet or they are expected to 'stretch' somehow?). I am not a super rich person, and I don't spend hundreds of dollars on clothes when it cost 100$ to buy and install a car part, (fix a car etc the cheapest way).. so I am not sure why it's so hard to find a stylish wear-everywhere type of clothing nowadays.. I just like to look nice and not pay the 1000$ price for 1 article of clothing. Anyway if someone can help with finding similar designs or types that would be helpful (socks, or similar 'board shorts', swim trunks, sports wear, or just nice wear-anywhere designs)
