Technically I'm only spending $20-30 more than what most people do and get way more wear/use/life out of them.
I'm that guy that buys nice things takes care of them and they last me forever. I honestly still have almost every pair of Ray-Ban, Oakley or Persol sunglasses I've ever bought. I have have a closet full of shirts that are over 5-7 years old.

Same here...I buy expensive accessories like shoes, wallets, ties, sunglasses, etc. that may make me look like a d-bag, but guess what they last forever. People think my 4 year old black Magnanni dress shoes are new. They were $250 but clearly worth it in the long-term. And if you look for the right sales at Neiman's, Saks, Nordstrom, etc. you can find a killer deal.
