Expensive Products Worth The Money | Luxury Brands I Love

About this video

Sacawa discusses six expensive products he argues are worth their premium prices, including selvedge denim, niche fragrances, tailored suits, Frank Clegg leather goods, Aesop skincare, and Belgian Shoes. He explains the long-term value proposition of each item by examining quality, craftsmanship, durability, and cost-per-wear calculations.

Key takeaways

• Sacawa argues that selvedge denim in the $200-300 range offers superior quality and longevity compared to cheaper alternatives, citing his personal experience with multiple pairs lasting 3-5 years
• Sacawa recommends investing in tailored or made-to-measure suits rather than off-the-rack options, as ready-to-wear garments require costly alterations and use inferior construction methods like heat-fused interfacing
• Sacawa emphasizes that higher-quality products—from niche fragrances to leather goods to skincare—improve over time and justify their cost through extended durability and aesthetic development
• Sacawa advises obtaining samples before purchasing expensive fragrances and stresses the importance of researching tailored clothing programs, noting that if a deal seems too good to be true, it likely isn’t
• Sacawa personally owns and recommends Frank Clegg leather goods, Aesop skincare products, and Belgian Shoes, describing them as timeless, well-crafted items that become family heirlooms
