I have a simple mantra, buy what you like, wear what you want.

Just my .02, of course I could be wrong.

As far as the new releases go, it's the year of the sub, some I like some I don't but I'm happy with the collection I have so for me it's a non-starter. But if someone wants to shell out 33K to hang with Mike Horn, then have at it....if someone wants to train with the Italian navy, have at it....doesn't bother me in the least, but to characterize these offerings as a 'scam' is a bit over the top. Again I'm sure I'm wrong.
^^^This. And I’m not quire sure the Carbotech, BMG, etc. are considered low grade materials or the processes to make them low grade. I happen to think they’re supercool.
Have you ever seen one in person, or held two Carbotech side by side? Although the same model, each one is cut differently thus each having a slightly different “look.”

I’ve only been a PAM fan/owner for the last few years but I’ve learned a lot and I believe they are unique and simply offer something different. I’ll defend the brand this way, while realizing ALL brands, shit, look at AP this year, swing and miss once and a while.
But getting scammed? C’mon
