Which jacket should I save up for?

[MissPiggy2025]

Im saving up for a new babour jacket and selling my old one. So far I've saved up £92, I won't actually buy off line I'll go to the outlet in Oxford and actually try it on but these are the 3 I like best.

Cropped Beadnell Waxed Jacket

Modern Beadnell Waxed Jacket

Icons Beadnell Cropped Jacket, Olive/Gardenia,

None of them. If you need to save for premium/luxury clothing brands, it means that you cannot afford them. I know it's not what you wanted to know but given the way you asked the question, this is my opinion.

Also be aware that the quality for the same item isn't always the same in the outlet. It might be cheaper but can also be worse quality. A lot of stuff is produced just for the outlet.

[MissPiggy2025]

I can afford it, i just have other responsibilities like a mortgage and car. I could buy one tomorrow if I wanted to but its called being responsible.

I save up extra cash from birthdays, Christmas, cash in hand work, vinted etc to save for the little things I want for myself.

People who buy luxury brands without actually thinking about it first usually dont actually know what there buying and are just doing it to give off but they are rich to try and impress others.

Real old money rich people aren't constantly flashing the cash around its tacky in there eyes and they only buy investment pieces instead of buying into fast fashion

[Telekinetic-Potato]

It's true. These brands outsource their name to small shops that slap label on what they make. They have to follow a style guide but that's usually it

[Nikki1989]

That is totally on you. I wouldn't want to wear any of them.

Paying far too much , saving up for a depreciating item is never a good idea..

Use TEMU get something cheaper and functional , much more realistic.

[MissPiggy2025]

Babour is expensive because of the quality. They last for many years and are often pasted down from generation to generation and they never go out of style and last for years so it eventually pays for its self.

Temu is a fash fashion brand that makes things at poor quality to keep the product affordable. More than likely I wouldn't even be able to buy a genuine wax jacket off temu to begin with and secondly by next year id have to buy a new one because the quality is so poor so essentially its costing me just as much.

Babour jackets are investment pieces the only reason im selling my old one is because it doesn't fit me in certain areas anymore since being pregnant

Quality is a bullshit mystery , all will look like shite in 3 years , bottom line depreciating product , wasting your money..

INVEST , and not in jackets , a solid ETF.

[MissPiggy2025]

Okay mate 👍 you enjoy your temu if thats what you like. I simply asked which jacket was nicest not your opinion on temu quality but im sure the children in China appreciate you sticking up for there quality of work

[molonski2]

Okey enjoy the wastage of your money , and with respect please don't call me " mate " , make sure you don't waste your money on " non assets " that don't look good anyway.
Have an enjoyable day.
Start buying UK ETFs early , wastage is a lifetime killer , far too expensive.
Good luck , enjoy.

[MissPiggy2025]

Talking about wastage and telling me to buy off temu 🤣 I can't tell if your trolling or not

[MissPiggy2025]

What is it with middle age people and Temu its like a cult or something 🤣🤣🤣

[Levin]

That's very individual. Just go with what you like.
