Assuming you have a luxury good or tool with the apex quality, craftsmanship and beauty, it is more \u00e2\u20ac\u0153sustainable\u00e2\u20ac\u009dbecause you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re more likely to own it forever and not throw it away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Leica cameras hold their value very well. Even the Leica M8 and Leica M9, which are nearly a decade old (for digital cameras), they are still great and beautiful tools! I wouldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t say buying a Leica is an \u00e2\u20ac\u0153investment\u00e2\u20ac\u009d, but you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re more likely to hold onto your Leica for a long time than a Fujifilm camera (which gets outdated pretty quickly). <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Of course nothing lasts forever, but there are some things which last longer than others. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n For example an Apple iPhone is more likely to have longevity when compared to a Samsung Android phone. Or a MacBook Pro laptop is more likely to have better longevity than a random Acer Windows laptop. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Another testament to the genius of Steve Jobs:<\/p>\n\n\n\n I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m using an old-ass iPod Nano, and it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s still beautiful and works well!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n People still use their old Apple headphones, but who still uses the prepackaged Samsung ones?<\/p>\n\n\n\n For example, even the original older Tesla Model S cars look sexy. Consider how quickly outdated the BMW cars get, or Toyota Camry cars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I like fast fashion for the democratic notion (anyone can afford to \u00e2\u20ac\u0153look cool\u00e2\u20ac\u009d), but I hate it for the lack of longevity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Zara is a good alternative \u00e2\u20ac\u201d my stylish Zara suits from college years still look good today (I still wear them). Also a good brand is Uniqlo\u00e2\u20ac\u201d basic staples which are quite robust to time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Leather gets better with time (patina). This is why I have such a passion for HAPTIC INDUSTRIES<\/a><\/strong> and leather products (Henri Strap<\/a>, ERIC KIM STRAP<\/a>, etc). I design tools to last a lifetime (and further!) Its my personal ambition to create goods that you can even give to your future grandchildren and THEIR grandchildren!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Assuming you have a luxury good or tool with the apex quality, craftsmanship and beauty, it is more \u00e2\u20ac\u0153sustainable\u00e2\u20ac\u009dbecause you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re more likely to own it forever and not throw it away.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"advanced_seo_description":"","jetpack_seo_html_title":"","jetpack_seo_noindex":false,"jetpack_seo_schema_type":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[17],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-188176","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-posts"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/erickimphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/188176","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/erickimphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/erickimphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/erickimphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/erickimphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=188176"}],"version-history":[{"count":9,"href":"https:\/\/erickimphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/188176\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":188508,"href":"https:\/\/erickimphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/188176\/revisions\/188508"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/erickimphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=188176"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/erickimphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=188176"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/erickimphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=188176"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}By putting an insane amount of detail, love, and care into design, you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re cresting a more sustainable future. <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
