This comes from the heart, but it seems like you've got clothing ADD. Not in the sense of trying to find your preferred look, either. But more like, you actually enjoy the chase more than the rewards of the chase. I only drop in on the Schneider thread every couple of weeks, but I recall a lot of "alpaca alpaca alpaca" posts from you in anticipation of getting the alpaca coat. You've had it for what, a couple of weeks, and now you're (perhaps jokingly?) talking about selling it so you can get something else. I know all too well that limited funds force you to get creative in building a wardrobe, and that sometimes means selling something you don't really want to part with in order to finance something else. Perhaps it's my imagination, but that seems like a fairly regular occurrence with you. You've got/had some cool shit, reedo. Take a deep breath and ENJOY some of it!

Yea man, this is a pretty spot on on summation. I guess I'm trying to just get a feel for a lot of these pieces/brands, and so I take chances and sometimes when I'm not really happy with a piece, I decide to sort of trade it out for another I hope I'll like more. Funny enough, I was actually diagnosed with ADD (who wasn't though), and I sort of have a habit of intense fixation coupled with complete 180s in interests. I also have a pretty big problem with delaying gratification haha

However, I do have a number of pieces I really love that I have no qualms keeping forever, and I consider them sort of my core pieces. I guess I'm just trying to find more "core" pieces, ones that I know I'll never have the desire to let go of no matter how I age or how my style matures.

I didn't think it was that bad either... shog[1].gif
It's hard to explain exactly why, but the fabric of the trousers is such that they don't really work with boots, or any non-sneaker/non-sandal shoes.
I have another poncho fit in mind, with a different pair of trousers and boots, but it would have probably been too dark for today's weather.
