Yeah they're a total status symbol here. Every second person has one. Mostly young people asking their parents to pay $700+ for shit they could never buy for themselves, but want their kids to have on Christmas.

The worst is when I see a young couple pushing a baby stroller around, and both parents have the jackets.

The "I have something you can't afford hahahaha" craze has really taken off here.

I got my top of the line Columbia winter jacket with the silver lining inside for $100. Best they make. It was last year's model, and has "something" wrong with it. No idea what that might be.
