Splurge vs. Steal

[smokey the elder]

I refuse to pay full price for most clothes. Because I have funky feet, I'm very picky about shoes but still can often find ones that fit at a reasonable price. I find for leather stuff (shoes, purses, jackets) you get what you pay for to a point. I expect leather goods to be durable. I paid handsome coin for a leather biker jacket 25 years ago. The fail point is the zipper; once I get replaced it will be as good as new!
