I will admit that I'm super impatient in general, but I don't think there is anything in the world cool enough that I'd wait over a year for it.

Anderson & Sheppard's bespoke is about 3.5 years from your initial meeting, assuming you're based in the US and can't travel to see them.

I'm still waiting for my ToJ whiskey CM, DREW KEITH ! 5 years...

That's fine. It just means you're not the right client for that business model. Doesn't take away anything from you or from those MTO makers.

No, totally agree.

I don't think there are any restaurants that are so good they're worth waiting in line for either, and I love good restaurants. I just value my time more than anything else.

Some line move fast tho...

Truth be told I have worked in restaurants for over a decade in my early life, and my personal policy is that any restaurant where you can't have a reservation in the same week without jumping through hoops doesn't get my business. I work hard enough in my professional life not to inflict myself additional work to enjoy my leisure time.

I am also rather impatient.
My Field Leathers jacket took another 4 weeks.
It was the very first order received by Field Leathers.
Within a year, the waiting times have grown to 12 months, which is clearly too long for me.
My FiveStar jackets took about 3-4 weeks.
My Aero about 3 months.
My Lewis Leathers 8 weeks.
I don't really want to wait longer than a maximum of three months.

Put yourself in my shoes: Everything I post is apparently tracked and studied to post here in an attempt to mock me. Some people really don't have anything else better to do I guess.
