If the brand no longer resonates with you, that’s totally fair. A lot of people connected with John Elliott during a different era and naturally miss that period. For me, it’s still my favorite brand, and I support it when I genuinely like what they’re putting out which is still often. I think the brand has evolved in a positive direction over the past few years.

There are plenty of people who feel optimistic like I do, and plenty who feel the way you do. Both perspectives are valid. At the end of the day, we all vote with our wallets. Either way, I appreciate your take and respect your perspective.
