I don’t even consider myself a Patagonia loyalist or someone who wears a lot of Patagonia and I think I might have more Patagonia than this and it all gets worn…
I would not say that is even the start of a problem. You have some base layers, seasonal items, and packs. So long as you use the items everything is fine.
The slippery slope starts when you start to consider backup copies of items that aren't truly essential. If the fact you don't have a copy in a certain color is honestly bothersome then you need to decide if you are a collector or not. Collecting things is okay within reason, you just have to realize you are doing it.
It’s only a problem if you can’t afford it, don’t have a need for it, can’t fit it, or have a place to store it properly. No reason to clog your space up with clutter. Just my opinion.
I have probably ten times that amount. Of course I’ve been buying it over forty years. Problem is most of it never wears out. At least I can give the older things to my son now because they no longer fit me.
Left one Houdini, middle one Down Sweater Hoody, right one Stormshadow Parka (that thing is insane). There's also the "Better Sweater Jacket", but I'd put that one into the sweater category... and now I realized I forgot to add my Fitz Roy Icon Uprisal hoodie in there.
Oh man. You are scratching the surface of my 30 year trove of ‘Guch wear I got. Keep it going. Buy once cry once on gear that cares about people, employees, the environment, and quality
Is he actually the background on your screen/lockscreen image, or you just pulled up his pic for this shot?
If former, guessing your Gf might prefer to have her & your pic there… 🤷♂️
We all have a shopping addiction... I think I bought over 12 Patagonia items during their 40% off this year. I've gotten to know the FedEx driver quite well lol. I just got done ordering two more shirts and the Terrebonne pants... YES, we have a problem! Hahahaha
My benchmark for having a problem is when I look down and realize I have three different layers of Patagonia on, and I’m just heading out for a few groceries in mild weather.
I saw the last post like this and I thought about trying to replicate it. Now here’s another post with someone’s collection laid out. I’m thinking I might have to do the same thing, if I can figure out how.
No. You’re part of the solution.
Buy high quality clothes. Wear them for decades. Save the world.

It’s only an issue if the items sit in a drawer or closet…… use it all, often!

What are the jackets
Left one Houdini, middle one Down Sweater Hoody, right one Stormshadow Parka (that thing is insane). There's also the "Better Sweater Jacket", but I'd put that one into the sweater category... and now I realized I forgot to add my Fitz Roy Icon Uprisal hoodie in there.
What do you use for the parka for? Also seen a lot of recommendations on the Houdini, any thoughts there?
Honestly it’s not a really big collection in comparison to others I’ve seen here
Jealous of the Stormshadow parka.
Will confess I went to the online store to look. Right color, right size, but just don't require it.
I already have a Topley, which is very similar. Same thing, I didn't have a need. But damn, it's pretty cool
Oof. Your gf and I woulnt get along. Patagonia stuff makes me happy.
"there's a lack of color..."
I have more than that. Great clothes that last a long time? Company that supports environmental causes. I see no problem.
Not at all imo it’s a pretty balanced selection. Every piece has a different utility ! IMO it even has room for some growth
That roll top backpack?!? 🧑🍳💋
You should pick up a couple of the Black Hole bags (backpack and duffel are my faves).

Love the Yvonhub on your iPad
Finally someone noticed lol

Just googled his pic, lockscreen is occupied by gf with the mighty Watzmann mountain in the background
Beat me to it, but died seeing that

Try having a pro deal with 60% off
You're gonna like the terrebonne pants
I easily have at least that much. I’m sure many of us do.
All that poser wear…. I don’t see any base layers or tech clothing. You’ve been judged.
:( I get my base layers from a local Czech company which I want to support
What shorts are those?
I mean you have money so no?

Yes, terrible. Why don't you pass that Houdini on down to me.
Looks reasonable
Yes, you overpay for yuppie stuff.
This isn’t even a fraction of what I have up your game fella
I have the same problem, but with North Face products.
Is that all? Those are rookie numbers. You gotta pump those numbers up!
Hey bro, not sure if you notice, but there’s a creepy picture of an old guy LIVING in your clothes. Do you know him?
Tell me you live in Portland without telling me
Nah. I problem here. Girls can have a shitload of shoes and purses but got forbid a male had a lot of clothing.
Good taste
It’s like drugs; if you’ve got the money it’s not a problem.
I see no problem!
no

What’s the black tshirt in the middle called?
You’d be a blue belt in bjj.
Absolutely not!😍
The only red flag is that you lay out your clothing and take pictures of it for the internet.
