Monitor, I'll tell you what, I feel my hunger for leather fading. It's happening only very slowly and there's still a few things I would love to get, like a heavyweight Langlitz CR or this lovely HH Cal Leather CHP on eBay, but it's getting less. Recently I catch myself looking out for leather shoes and watches again. Bought a pair of Dinkelacker shoes on eBay the other week and it's hand down the most comfortable yet durable shoes ever. Unfortunately it's Progues which I cannot wear casually, so I am looking for a bit more toned down casual pair of Dinkelackers now. Think I fell in a new trap, now that I have merely escaped the leather jacket one.
You know, I thought the same thing as well. Some month ago, I also felt the bug letting go. I wasn't even checking the classifieds as I used to and I was thinking good, I guess I'm finally happy with these few jackets that I have so that's taken care of and then suddenly... The hunger struck back like rarely ever before. Next thing I know, I had 10 stinking jackets again and I promised myself I'd never do that again.
But if nothing else, I'm really happy with the jackets that I have right now. It's a good thing, 'cause I really have no clue what else would I want that I don't have or that would be so much better to justify going thru the hustle of getting it.
As for the shoes, I think I'll stop buying them altogether and just walk barefoot. I've destroyed yet another new pair just last week.
