The annoying part is when you get something new/newish and inadvertently damage it. During new years I was stoking a fire at a friends place right before we were about to leave and caught my 2-3 year old arteryx jacket on the edge of the door, melted a nice hole in it. While I got 2-3 years out of it it was still in perfect condition moving forward but now I just put a stupid hole in an $800 jacket will try to get it sewn back together but is just like this ugggggg moment that I wouldn’t have in some cheap hoodie etc. 
I did the same with a virtually brand new ski jacket was lit af and roasting marshmallows and in my attempt to put the fire out on the marshmallow flung the flaming ball of goo right onto the shoulder of my jacket… that was an expensive marshmallow.
I’m of the mind though that if you can’t afford to go out and instantly replace said garment without a second thought, then it’s quite a risk to be wearing something so expensive |
Man tha accidently damage hurts!
The bonus with some more expensive brands too is their warranty. Lulu has or had (i heard they changed it a bit) a warranty where it's lifetime essentially. I've brought back 2 pairs of shorts and 1 pair of pants because some wear and tear and some seems started breaking slightly. They took all 3 back and gave me the same credit to get whatever I wanted.
