Patagonia

It took me 32 years to get my third piece of Patagonia clothing, including that above the ankle pair of wool hiking socks; it's taken The Dragon Boss 9 months.

After all, we do live in the Mission suburbs where it's almost a uniform for the neighborhood tots. Plus, Baleen does most of the procuring, with plenty of help from grandparents and other relatives so his early start is no surprise.

It's irrational, I know, especially as the longevity argument doesn't work. TDB will never, ever, ever wear it out, thus allowing us to send it down to Ventura for a free replacement before he grows out of it, but he does look darn good in it so I'm sure the fourth isn't too far away.
