>>8566994
whats the matter, are you poor or something?

>>8567019
Yeah. And unless I was crazy rich I wouldnt drop half a grand on a single jacket

>>8567019
Its a waste of money.

why spend 500 dollars on a jacket when you can get better quality for less.

Its literally brand name, designed for fags like you that want to be recognized by other rich fags. Its the rich fags Hollister or American Eagle, with the same iconic branding.

The only difference? Its expensive, which limits who can wear it. Like a cool kids club for people with autismo that spend a lot.

look around, and you'll find good jackets for less.

tldr price =/= quality or style

>>8567036
>its a waste of money

only poor people say this. Spending 20 dollars on a tshirt is waste of money, why not just buy 3 tshirts in a pack for 8 dollars at walmart?

>>8567053
Dont atually buy 3 pack at walmart but I do buy a few 15 dollar shirts at places like walmart. It looks feels and fits great, no need to spend any more money rather than buy what works

....it is a big part of clothing..

>>8567835
Not when you're buying FASHION. It's more about the design and name. Wal-mart is not fashion, for example. It's simply functional clothing meant to be affordable for everyone.

>>8567036
Are you fucking stupid?

>hurr branding

If you ever start developing some actual taste, you'll realize how lightly branded most clothes are (if at all). The guys brandishing logos are usually the dickheads in gucci hats.

As for thinking this is a cool kid's club because the price is a limiting factor for who can buy it: Total bullshit. People have no idea how much nice clothes cost. If someone's trying to gauge the cost of an outfit of mine, it's not unheard of for them to literally be off by a factor of 10. People are fucking stupid, and you quickly realize that nobody respects you and your clothes more than you do. Not even close.

THAT'S when you start dressing for yourself. When you realize you could spend 90% less and still amaze everyone. And ironically that's also the point that you've incorrectly decided is where you only buy clothes to show off.

If we wanted to show off, we'd buy polo button downs with the pony logo, burberry clothes with the tartan pattern, LV bags covered in the LV logo, etc. People eat that shit up, and almost nobody on this board with any self respect wears any of that.

You pretty much couldn't be more wrong.

There comes a point when quality is no longer important.

If a H&M t-shirt can last you one year, I can guarantee a Rick Owens t-shirt will last you two. But if you expect it to last fifty years because it cost x10 more, you're fucking stupid.

Not necessarily

A lot of high priced items are really delicate. The most expensive 'casual' things in my wardrobe(about $400 each) aren't crafted that much better than something around the $200 mark. Some of them are also dry-clean only.

At a certain point you're really only paying for the design itself/the designer

expensive =/= greatest quality/best durability

Carhartt costs 200. Maybe an arctic jacket could run that much or an all leather or skeepskin one. My levis commuter trucker is my favorite jacket and I paid 70 for it. I'm pretty sure it will last many years. There's a place between h&m and fjallraven in terms of jackets. The jacket in ops pic is unlined and nylon. If you pay 500 for unlined nylon then you probably have a happy combination of a trust fund and an extra chromosome.
