I know you’re going to kill me for this, but there’s a difference between buying something as a person who will wear a coat for decades and one who likes to get new things.
I loathe having to get more stuff, so I spend more upfront on quality of materials to make sure it lasts. I have no need to ever buy another leather jacket or briefcase as long as I live for example. My taste will not change. I’m not trying to be timely with fashion. And good leather only looks better with age if you take care of it.
That’s my general philosophy as well with buying things. If it’s a good product I don’t mind paying some money for it & I can reason it for same reasons that I’m not a keeping up with the Jones’ type of person. I’m gonna stretch the life span out of the product & get my values out of it so I’ll pay for the better product even if it’s the more costlier option knowing that.
