“Look” (and in regards CG and Moncler, not the Nikes)

I own a $1700 Woolrich cost, for example. It's one of the best things I've ever bought. I know I won't get robbed because the model I own has no logos anywhere except the tag that you cannot see unless I take it off.
Stop buying crap like Canada Goose of Moncler that have obvious logos on them that make you a target. This is not a new concept. People have been shooting each other for dumb Nikes since the 80s.
Totally agree. Plus you like like a Russian. On the slopes, everyone thinks: oh, a shit skier.

This. Remember what Willie Sutton said, when asked why he robbed banks - "because that's where they keep the money."

Had a friend--a lawyer--who went to a pick-up bar wearing a fake Rolex watch. Was drugged by a female who went home with him. He didn't wake up for almost two days. The only thing that she stole was the fake Rolex watch. At that time--in the 1990s--this was an organized theft ring.
He could have been killed over a fake Rolex watch.
Was this in DC? My roommate in the 90s was drugged.

How much student loans does the victim have? 30 jackets? I would be furious if my kid owned and wore a $1,000 item of clothing. My family's HHI is about 160 stupid forking jackets.
Your kid very likely carries around a $1,000 computer in the palm of his hand. Seems like an arbitrary thing to protest the jacket?
Correct. It's funny how the mob focuses on just the thing they don't have, and not the thing they all have.
Mobile phones are not as attractive to steal due to the tracking. I don’t think Canada Goose jackets come with GPS and internet connectivity. Correct me if I am wrong. 😎
Signed,
The “Mob”

I mean it IS wealth distribution if you think about it. So what's wrong?

Guess the fake worked exactly as your friend intended - got a materialistic woman at a bar to go home with him.

There are so many luxury brand items you can buy not plastered with dumb logos and criminals are too stupid to know quality when it walks right by them if there are no logos.

Conspicuous wealth is...conspicuous. Doesn't make stealing right, just makes it easier to choose a victim.
