They do look good quality but at the end of the day its still a Gaming product. at them prices you can go out and get a nice Designer item that you can wear any day of the week.

these is a bit of a niche item that will be wore from time to time.

at them prices i would expect it hand delivered by CCP Guard via a Jump Freighter. while rideing a Unicorn

1. Don't buy them.
2. Buy them with ISK.

Pick one.

I just undocked for the first time and someone challenged me to a duel. Wat do?

I know but at 1.21. Euro to the pound its not far off and i also rounded up.

so 95 quid for the jacket and 56 quid for the hoodie still crazy for what they are.

Speak for yourself. If I would buy something in the store I would wear it just as much as any other item I own.

If you want something quick for a meetup, buy a 20 EUR t-shirt with cheap custom print on it that wears of after washing it 20 times. Also this is an designer item. Maybe you where looking for another word?

Cheapest jackets locally are either 139€+ or they're butt-ugly.

That's a cheap jacket.

Even if a person can justify the prices, good luck finding the size you want.
