Funny, I have the exact same addiction. My wardrobe today was Polo shirt, pants , socks, underwear and shoes topped off with a Polo hat and sunglasses. Something about the Polo logo, if it has it, I have to have it.

Ebruner · 19 August 2011, 12:31 PM

Civil War muskets and carbines, Confederate brass, Gibson & Fender guitars, and of course watches.

About 20 years ago from my early 30's to late 30's EVERYTHING I bought had the little horse on it.....then for some reason i got tired of it and went
to Brooks brothers shirts and Dockers/Brooks brothers for pants and have never bought Polo again.
I had a polo wallet, ties, shoes ....even bedding....which I sill have and use to this day....the stuff last forever. I just looked in the closet at one of the old shirts...my main bitch was the no pocket dress shirts....other than that they still look new even 20+year old.

masterserg · 19 August 2011, 01:44 PM

Chris Reeve folding knives, Nikon stuff and any tool I can get my hands on. I have a few Mont Blanc pens as well.

PSG1 Nut · 19 August 2011, 02:28 PM

Chris Reeves makes some badass knifes. I have amassed a rather large collection of high end knifes. Also as my user name would suggest I am a HUGE fan of a rather large company in Germany. You all might know them they go by Heckler and Koch and oh yea I am their bitch. They get most of the trust fund every time it opens.

KingJames · 20 August 2011, 12:59 AM

My other collections:
Cole Haan Shoes- 12 pair, some that I really like I have 2
Clothes- Allot of Polo (prev mentioned), Allot of Brooks Brothers
Firearms- Glocks, Sigs, Colts, Kimbers
Flashlights- Fenix, 4Sevens
Gear- Maxpedition

To add to this, probably the strangest thing I do is buy duplicates of the items I really like (one for now, and one for a rainy day). Yesss...the exact same item....size.....make...model.....I'll take 2! LOL

masterserg · 20 August 2011, 01:05 AM

Yeah, I forgot my Surefire flashlights and a compulsion to buy every single quiksilver cargo short under the sun.

We are a strange bunch around here

Here are two of mine that you mentioned (PAM & Porsche). Which PAM are you thinking?? They are great watches, and my current obsession. Boys and their toys

Speaking of which, the other prize in my collection is my great grandfathers war journal from WW1. He was apart of an elite Canadian army corps that fought at Vimy Ridge, a great source of pride for our military history. It contains astonishingly detailed depictions of daily life and battles, including losing some of his closest friends.

Impressive Kareem. Old books are amazing!

I never go anywhere w/out my Fenix PD20 ... rock solid build, 200 lumens and TINY for 50 bucks ... it is pretty amazing.

BamaBanker · 20 August 2011, 02:10 AM

Canon camera equipment, 4 bodies and 10 lenses (all L glass)
Pearl handle pocket knives, especially large collection of "doctors knives"
Large firearms collection, WWII thru current rifles and pistols.
Have been wearing Polo since 1976 in college, Was shopping yesterday for it and noticed more and more Polo is going to the EXTRA LARGE Logo stuff. Really disturbing.

b12 · 20 August 2011, 03:21 AM

Wine - which is especially fun because, with the right attitude, the cellar never gets too full.

salem65 · 20 August 2011, 03:36 AM

Love watches, but also Louis Vuitton products and Tiffany jewellery.

dnagwhogas · 20 August 2011, 04:08 AM

Nikon cameras/equipment. I have a dozen film SLRs and 4 Nikon Dslrs. I believe I have 5 Nikon speedlights and tons of old and new Nikon lenses.

You have a twin in Ohio, I dont think I have left the house without something Polo on in 15 years. I don't care for his shoes unless they are dress shoes. The athletic shoes do nothing for me. Im so much of a sucker, I have a signed pic of Ralph Aka Mr Ralph Lifshitz !!!!!

cdrii · 20 August 2011, 04:25 AM

Wow getting some awesome replies on this blog. For those who inquired, I am on the prowl for my first Panerai, probably the 111 or 104.

When the kids finish college, looiking at a Porsche carrera S convertible! haha. I too am going through the Louis V stage, got the wallet, Pince money clip, coin holder & key case. Also rockin both of their Daimler belts. Love my 3 surefires too.

Its great reading about others obsessions. Its kinda hard for me to share with others as they take me for a total prick, haha oh well, 3 Rolex watches, a Beamer & Vuitton bling does that to a guy!

Nice knowing others share my pain! haha

mfer · 20 August 2011, 04:29 AM

Collecting anything else would take money away from future watches.....so....nothing else.

Unless you count stocks/mutual funds with negative returns. Got some of those, but they seem to keep getting smaller and smaller....

I love RL stuff myself, including the Polo line.

I don't care for the GIANT ENORMOUS logo myself.

RolexPete32 · 20 August 2011, 11:03 AM

I was into shoes for a while and now own more then I can use for the rest of my life + belts etc etc etc.... It seems to be a sure thing if you like Rolex and buy chances are you also are into other stuff as well.,

paddy_crow · 20 August 2011, 12:18 PM
