        My family and friends have no idea what I spend on clothes. My wife does most of the time. I try to educate all of them on buying quality over quantity and buying something only when the old one is warn out.

        Like Mega I tend to sell items (gear and clothes) to fund others. Bonuses from work tend to fund bigger purchases.

          If you're single, and spending money you earned yourself, then it's nobody's business but your own.  Since I'm not single, my wife knows, more or less.  More accurately, she doesn't know the cost of each item to the penny, but she knows ±10% or so.  We've discussed discretionary spending many times, as all married couples should, I believe.  As a result, she can ballpark my clothes and shoes, and I can do the same for hers.

          She outspends me, by the way. 🙂

            I'm in the same boat as Chris. The wife outspends me by far

              Good answers guys. I think it's funny that we all understand each others habits (obviously) and have similar experiences with friends and family.

                Dr. Zhivago knows now, it was a bit traumatic at first for both of us. Giles can attest…

                Then she realized she could just up the spa treatments and now we are all good.

                Seriously though, 2nd what Chris said and discuss it if you even think it could be a issue because if you think I could be it probably is...

                  In taking a shine to cowboy boots, nothing crazy flashy justvs good rugged versatile non pointed toe that is built to last. I really am relatively clueless in this area of footwear. Does anyone have suggestions for me to look at? Any info, help or whatever is appreciated

                            Mrs Snowy knows more or less. She's not had a concern with it, discretionary spending. That said, I spend 3-4x more than she does.

                                          I realise that this is a highly subjective question, but how important is a good leather jacket to a mans wardrobe?

                                            As important as a denim shirt or/ and a good pair of boots… And no: I don't have a leather jacket cause I hate jackets in general, but I still reckon I should have a leather one...
