Not expensive for quality and I have to wear it. I Can remember when I would go for the cheapest out of necessity and then struggle with something that did not feel comfortable- or just did not fit. And I can still remember someone buying a lot of Tubes because they were cheap- Not one single one was any good. Not saying that a real deal on a known product is a no-no- we are all looking for those deals, but On clothing- Or anything that I have to touch- saddle- bars- grips- brake levers etc. I try before I buy- You can tell the quality when you find it- That's why I start at the chesapest and work my way up
I did that with Cognac at a distillery in France I few years ago. Don't know if it is because I have good tastes- but it took 15 grades of sampling before I was happy with the taste. The wife drove home from the vineyard.
