Eh man, I paid 380 for it. But its worth it, the quality is amazing and its custom made. But personally like, I try to buy quality stuff. Like I only own 3 pairs of jeans lol, but theyre all sick. You just gotta wear it like its an ever lasting condom ;p and itll be worth your cash
And like people tell me why spend so much on jeans? Id rather buy 10 pairs of $20 ones. Well guess what, you got 10 pairs of shitty pants lol. So all in all, I like buying quality stuff, but unfortunatly until I have a stable income I wont have that much of it. But what ever I have i wear a lot. But that doesnt mean all my shit is super expensive, because its not. You can get great stuff for cheap, just gotta know where to look
Im starting to make my own clothes now, im working on a vest...im like 75% done, just waiting for the patches to come in, and studs. Once I put them on, imma doodle on it a bit and itll be done. Then I want to take classes or something, to learn how to make clothes from scratch (esp. leather). As I would make stuff out of leather and denim, and just make it my own. That way I will always have something awesome that I make...but hell dude, raw materials are a bitch. Like my denim jacket im making costed about $90 in material (patches cost a lot lol). But atleast I got a lot of raw material for future projects hopefully.

yea i totally agree with quality > quantity. all my jeans are are expensive, i cant stand wearing something that feels like crap, you know? but i have some limits on how much i spend (being without a job/income). like there's no way in hell my parents would let me buy that jacket for $600 haha, but if it was $350 ish liek you said then yea, sure i would get it.
so yea, quality > quantity, but reasonably prices.
tell me if you find anything on those classes to make your own clothing, i'd be interested in doing something like that in vancouver.
you gotta show me the end result with the jacket you make. sounds like it'll be sick man.

Yeah will do man, I got a thread on it. I gotta find some kind of special classes though, or maybe someone who knows what theyre doing. Because I dont think they teach you aging processess, and how to distress and shit in regular clothing making classes..
But if I could learn the hard stuff online, and the the structure making from class, then maybe ill be good

About that cologne, I got the DB Instinct a while back. Then two days ago, I walked into the mall and checked out the "Fragrance Hut", which has like everybody cologne imaginable (over exaggeration hehe), and they didn't have this one in stock YET. Neither did Walgreens. The Fragrance Hut said they'd get it in a few days or weeks (I gotta remember things better...), and the 2.5 ouncer was like 40, and the 1 ouncer was about 25.
So my question = where'd you get yours, what size, and how much?
