I have the 40 lb. vest, and I actually did try and wear it for one full day. It was a Sunday and I had to mow my mom’s lawn. I got through with the lawn, then I did the dishes. Then I took the vest off and said I will never wear it for longer than and hour. EVER AGAIN.
I’d just blow it on coke and Roederer Crystal. 300 bucks buys just a small taste of each.

THIS is a classic post. Thank you for the clear and ever so descriptive visual. Really, it helped immensely.
jchenky~ I have to admit, I’m mostly a Target or TJMaxx girl. I sweat like a horse and tend to go through stuff like mad, so I just can’t justify throwing cash down for gym gear.
Jeans on the other hand…

Not as bad as wandering through the Utah wilderness for two months with a 60# frame pack.
That’s pretty much the ultimate workout.

Haha
I know i sweat lots when i’m doing my intervals on the bike or treadmill.
Jeans… Oh I think I have probably 30 pairs of them. Each and everyone for a single different purpose. (casual, dressy, flats, heels) Its an obsession really…
2 girls at the same time.

Same here. I can’t wear my 40lb one for more than an hour or two max. The only times I’ve been able to wear it longer was when I took breaks in between each session. It just starts to dig in too much and hurt.
Anyway, I’d probably spend the $300 on some clothes and supps or maybe buy Rock Band.
Either that or put it towards a bass guitar. I’ve wanted to learn bass for a while.

god dam I could get all three for 80 bucks lol
I would go gambling.
Actually, a 300lb olympic weight set or a 357 revolver.
a sled and a slegehammer.
happy days.
Two bottles of 11-T
$74.50 of poon
$1 half-load of laundry
Oh, and to rehash a previous flaming thread, any man that spends $300 on pants does not need to have $300.
I spent a total of $40 on two pair of Arizona’s from JCPenny, removed the label, cut the label from a pair of designer jeans, BAM, instant expensive.
Dude, girls can tell the difference. That’s why guys would even spend more than 50 bucks on any article of clothing. I personally don’t like spending over 30-40 bucks for a pair but I get things on sale.
Lucky does a half off sale a couple times a year I believe. I’ll admit to spending $75 on a pair of jeans that was originally $150. I only have two pairs of pants, might as well invest. Elano’s right, they notice. And frankly pricier clothes fit better and last longer.
you were all close but here it is step by step…
And now for the ladies you still have $200 for clothes…I suggest affliction for dudes and sinful for chicks, if your gonna spend copius cash on clothes, make it bad ass clothing

ding ding ding we have a winner.
You can get 50-60+ dollar jeans for 20-30$ if you look at the right time of the year. Plus, you only have to get new clothes once a year then. Cuz shopping is teh lame.
I ended up with a free Affliction shirt . . . it’s a piece of shit. Unwrapped the bitch from it’s little plastic baggy (Warning: not a toy for babies), and that thing ALREADY had a few moth holes in it. I contacted the place I got it from, I was told that’s part of the “distressed” style. I thought that went away with the 80s.
And fuck what girls think of my clothing. I get involved with women. I dress very well, am usually complemented, and spend a fraction of what others do. Course, I don’t club, so that’s probably why I can get away with $20 pants and a $25 shirt.

I get free clothes (mostly shirts) from my football team. Very good way to expand your closet without wasting money.
I bought $100 jeans, really comfortable, and look VERY good
