From inside the Filson store in downtown Seattle you can see a hundred sewing machines with people sitting at them. Last time I was there, there was a sewing machine and operator right in the showroom. I guess Filson stuff, after eighty years or so, could need maintenance.
Lots of great stories and perspectives here. I own seven brand new Brooks Brothers dress shirts. At 61, I likely will never, ever, buy another dress shirt.
Oh....and I have a 1978 Porsche 911. In good shape, this is probably the cheapest car to take on a trip of five-figure miles. Just sayin'.....
