Maybe it's just me but I always have other options at their equivalent prices, or maybe I simply cannot afford GF.
Thanks for the insight. I alway wanted to own a GF, but as time has gone on my opinion of the brand has gone down and like you said there’s just simply more interesting options at that price point right now. The large size also doesn’t help. Still love some of their stuff but it’s just so pricey.
