No, but this one is a lovely, luxury field jacket. I could not find a comparable one in the US. US products are generally crap. The Polish company is superior.

Clearly I can afford it and I paid it. I am just pissed that Trump is making things more expensive on principle.
If I was so rich that I had a private jet and think business class flights are for "commoners", of which I was not one, a $53 charge would be unnoticeable. And yet, for you, it seems to have caused a significant impact. How strange.
If I went to buy a $5 chocolate and discovered it was now $6, I would simply pay it and carry on with my life. This is because $1 is an unnoticeable amount.
If you truly were a multi-millianae, you would have gone to get the jacket yourself, or if you truly could not face to fly in anything other than your private jet, hire a person to fly economy and carry it back for you.

Why did you personally pay Donald J Trump $53.00 to import a jacket that is impossible to wear in Louisiana?? It's going to be 96 degrees tomorrow! Why the fuck are you buying cold weather clothing when you already live in a humid subtropical climate, which is getting even warmer?
You have a private jet, one of the greatest money sinks it's possible to own, and I'm expected to believe that you find a couple grand anything but trivial spending money?
I think that if you did find that your chocolate bar cost $1.55 instead of $1.50 the next time you go to the store, you would not make a topic like this about it.

Again, it's the principle, not the money. What if you went to buy something, and it was one penny more expensive, but that penny went to, say, torture innocent people? Would you gladly pay it?
You mean like when I buy a Nestle chocolate bar and the entire amount of money I spend on it goes to torture innocent people by supporting the corporation that is into stealing their water and forcing them into starvation?
Because you suggested that if a penny went to torture I would have an issue with it on principle. But actually me and millions of others do that (and more) every day and don't think twice about it.

Why do you buy clothing eminently unsuitable for the climate in which you live? The only jacket I own is part of a suit that I have worn about twice in my life.

Again, I wear fashion jackets, and I spend most of my time in air conditioning. It's no different from people who wear suits and ties, which plenty of people do in hot climates.

I am spending too much money on fashion. I need to stop. My Crown Northampton shoes (handmade per order, take three months to arrive, finest leather and craftsmanship) are what I am most excited about!
