wtf? why so expensive :(

[ShawnD1]

somebody is angry...what did clothing ever do to you?

Clothes molested me, and they never seem to fit. I can't find a single store that sells long sleeve shirts that are small. My body mass index is around 25 so I'm actually slightly fatter than ideal, but people my size are so extremely rare that no clothing store sells men's small. I might need to eat until I hit the "obesity" side of the BMI scale just so I can find some clothes that fit.

Clothing is one of the most RIDICULOUSLY priced industries there is (among cars and technology accessories). $100 for a pair of pants that has maybe $2 worth of materials in it? No fucking thank you. Blow it out your ass, clothing companies.

You forgot the part where they are made in 3rd world counties where the labor costs is less than a dollar per item of clothing also.

My wife picked up a fleece pullover thing for $14 a couple weeks ago. She thought I looked good in it & a few people complemented me on how nice it looked, so she bought me another one (different color) a week or so ago. If they're on sale after Christmas, she'll probably pick up 3 or 4 more.

Hard to buy coats online sometimes because the fits are so different. Some of the cheaper coats are made with acrylic so they don't feel as warm as the 100% wool coats. I don't think they wick water as well either so if you're working outside you'll get colder after you've been sweating.

If you hit the gym like me you can get the coat tailored so you can show off that nice v-taper. Girls be mirin.

Thrift stores in U-District do not have anything in my size. Go to good will and you'll see "small" which has nothing then medium which has 5 articles then large-xl-xxl-xxxl takes the rest.

bought a 140 dollar jacket when it was on sale for 70 dollar

bought a 70 dollar jacket for 20 dollar when it was on sale.

all of these was bought during summer. smart ass bussiness knows that people wont buy jackets much in the summer as it is hot so they lower the price. the season where it is demanding they put high price.

You really need to hone your shopping skills, TridenT. $140 for a really nice jacket isn't too bad, but if you are looking for a bargain you shouldn't be coming across anything in that price range.

LOL. Actually, I picked up my light fall jacket at Eddie Bauer for 30% off back in October. But, they also had some 40% off sale days a few times since then. $60 for the down jacket that I got would be a pretty good price. Just gotta be patient and watch for sales.

I'm looking at Columbia jackets mostly. So, they're decent but not super nice... I don't know why Columbia thinks their jackets are worth $300 on their website. Talk about overpriced...

I agree with the Flight of the Conchords lyrics posted ITT.

herpa durpa why are brand names so expensive!?!?!

A fine quality jacket makes the man. It says "I've arrived and now that I'm here I don't have to wear ill-fitting, deconstructed third world garbage anymore." Women will immediately recognize the wearer as a man to be taken seriously, a man they want to get closer to. This kind of quality can't be had for $40 or $140. Quality men's winter jackets start at $300. I paid more for my current winter jacket than I paid for my first car.*

Almost sounded like a sales pitch from Mad Men.

*This part is true, it's a really nice jacket and it was a really crappy car.

He would fucking say that stupid ass shit.

I want a fucking jacket that doesn't look like complete ass, keeps my dry, and keeps me warm so that people cannot rag on my jacket for being so shitty. I WANT PEOPLE TO COMPLAIN ABOUT THE PERSON AND NOT THE FUCKING CLOTHES ALREADY. JESSSSUSS

Oh, and I want it for $50 or less. I MEAN, IS THAT SO HARD TO ACCOMPLISH?

 

[episodic]

Found a nice wool jacket that had just been dry cleaned at goodwill - 5$. Everyone compliments it.

No shame at all. .. .

 

[hiromizu]

Why don't we all do a good deed for Trident and chip in a few bucks for a nice jacket?

Do people really exist who find more fault in your clothes than they find in your person?

Forget all that overpriced branded garbage.

You'll look like a boss and waltz in style with one of these:

I always buy my jackets at Kohls in the spring. I can get some sweet deals then.
