And why does it look like blackbloc-mixed-with-courier-core for software developers who don't even ride a bike or do anything cool? Like my dudes, just put on the Patagonia puffer like the good PMC Karen you are.

Is it just the opposite version of people who got really into football jerseys or carhart jackets but for people who used to buy Supreme shit?

Is this why hardshells are so fucking expensive now?

    Yeah, I have a hard shell jacket that I got for a decent price a few years back. It's fantastic for walking the dogs on a wet day, but definitely not an everyday thing.

    This thread reminds me that a pair of hard shell pants would be really fantastic. One of my dogs always takes forever to find a spot to shit when the weather is terrible.

      I've always wondered why we don't make more outdoor gear for dogs. Like yeah, they can take it, but technically i walk for hours naked in a 50 degree rain, i just don't want to. By the same token no matter how capable dog's paws are in natural environments 120 degree concrete and asphalt aren't that. That's right; I am a shoes for dogs guy.
