It's not cheap, but it's not that expensive, is it? Another jacket/coat fan here. I have spent that on a coat before, but it's not in my 'impulse buy' range as much as i might quite like one. Couple of hundred, no bother, 400+ needs to be something special imo. Yeah, fair enough. Certainly wouldn't be an impulse for me, either. I've been eyeing one of these for a while... www.fjallraven.com/eu/en-gb/men/jackets/shell-jackets/smock-no-1-mIt's hard to justify that for a hiking jacket tho.

You’ll be looking for a while longer at that price
That sort of money could buy you a house in some parts of the country

That's ridiculous. I splurged on a Gucci jacket once and felt decadent but that's redonc.
Even Tom Ford stuff is a fraction of that.

How do you write a spoiler on this forum?

I’m sure those 12 grand hoodies are some sort of scam to balance the books, you list the boxes of unsold hoodies as stock that’s worth an alleged 500k to explain where the embezzled money disappeared to

I thoroughly object to spending money on clothes, other than shopping and dog walking I very rarely leave the house so it's not as if anyone is going to see them. These day I mostly just mooch about in jogging bottoms and a hoody.

I couldn't justify dropping money on a new jacket/coat/whatever. My £20 charity shop leather jacket I bought in 2001 is still going strong. Granted the lining is non existant - as are the pockets - but it has character* you just can't put a price on.
*it's filthy and it stinks

*scoffs at paying 400 quid for a jacket*
*Spends 60 quid on patches for his midlife crisis punk/metal denim vest*
*Doesn't actually have a denim vest yet*
I do question my choices sometimes.

This is what you would call a technical jacket though. Isn't it for when it's really cold? Eg living skandi or New York where winters are proper cold, you want good coat.

drhickman1983You need to tell us what patches you're getting. The acceptance of your mid-life crisis may depend upon it.

drhickman1983You need to tell us what patches you're getting. The acceptance of your mid-life crisis may depend upon it. Well as you asked: Metallica - Master of Puppets backpatch Ramones Bad Brains Minor Threat Conflict Dead Kennedys Bad Religion Judas Priest At The Gates Motorhead The Damned The Ruts The Adicts Anthrax Sepultura Darkthrone Mayhem The Misfits NOFX Slayer Amon Amarth It's all a bit route-1 and obvious. But this are the bands I like. Might get a Power Trip and Mgla patch. Tbh I've not measured anything so no doubt I'll end up having misjudged the size, but have a placement mapped out in my head. I did consider wanting to keep it just to one genre as that would be more pure but frankly I don't like enough of any one genre.

Sew them onto your skin. Punk AF I did consider getting a few tattoos, some of which would be based on band logos (though most would be based on videogames and TV shows). This seems less of a risk.

You do you my friend. Life is a runway and we're all models.
Or is that planes...
You can be the punky plane.

drhickman1983 Get the tats man! I've got a Ramones one and a Misfits one. They're shite but that's besides the point (the tattoos, not the bands).

anyone seen any jurassic world evolution 2 coverage / youtubes btw? release snuck up on me, and that's probably a bad sign if it means publisher witholding early access from review sites.
society tells me I'm too old for dinosaur themed duvet & pillow sets. I should never have listened to stoopid society.
