when i saw the jacket in the pics from other places thread, i wanted the jacket, didnt know what it was, could have been visvim/ burbery / supreme / insert trendy fan boy label / or whatever, i just liked the jacket.
the fact it cost £25 has nothing to do with anything, it could have cost £300 i still would have bought it (dependent on materials)
would you tell someone on here not to buy American apparel? or not to shop in H&M because they like something in there?
the quality is fairly good and i seem to have my clothes stolen from me in bars, so ill wear this so places and i wont cry if it goes missing.

on one hand you have a jacket you wear maybe once a week for a season… on the other hand you have a watch you wear all day / every day for many many years and maybe all your life.
not the same argument

kinda similar to the aesthetics arguement in the watch thread. someone should create a thread.
a nice looking jacket is a nice looking jacket, no one in the real world knows its price, and never will.

What is the jacket anyway? First time I've seen it.

I was commenting on quality more than price.
Obviously sneaker52 (and anyone else for that matter) can do whatever they want with their money and it may actually be the best constructed jacket in the world, made from the finest materials, but I highly doubt that's the case. It just seems to me that if you are concerned about quality, which I am, and would assume that anyone who owns Tenderloins, Visvims, Red Wings etc is also concerned about that, then why would you buy something that is probably poor(er) quality? And it's not like you can talk about buying those things purely for the aesthetic quality, as you can basically buy budget versions of all of that or very similar from the high street.
And I would tell people not to shop in American Apparel, I hate it (their adverts are good though) and think it's shit. Whether they listen to me or not is another matter. Same goes for H&M (they are not redeemed in any way by their adverts).

so you take everything in your wardrobe that seriously? its a £25 jacket that looks good on, it costs less than a round at the bar. dont worry, i wont be wearing it to LFW.
apart from some AA tops and some cdg x h&m that jacket is the only non designer item in my whole wardrobe.

Personally think Tenderloin is quite a cool brand name. No cock/pussy connotation to me
