Drinking the Kool-Aid

[Philpug]

What brands/products have you drank the Kood-Aid of? I thought of this after buying my 4th pair of Hoka One One shoes in the past year or so...that combined with the Never Ending Stockli thread made me think of this. It obviously does not have to be ski related but more about being a true zealot of something.

Patagonia and Arcteryx. If I need to outdoor related clothings, those are the two brands I shop. Apple products. My running shoes is the Nike Free RN (I got 6 new pairs in the garage).

The Cult of Subaru. And the belief that German cars are always superior..

IPAs and The Cult of Hops..

BMW. It’s hard to be humble when you ride the best.

and Subaru. I’ve owned three and helped Dad buy one.

Red Wing boots but only the U.S. made ones(I've tried some of the imported ones and they haven't held up and/or haven't been comfortable). I'm pretty well sold on Apple too even though I hate them sometimes. Costco and Trader Joes.
ETA: I used to be a big Subaru fan(there have been ~10 in my immediate family) but recent experiences have me less enthusiastic.

Ooh, I love my Hokas!

[luliski]

Brooks PureFlow running shoes.

Nope, not going there. This is a curmudgeon's stumbling block: every time I decide "X company has the best (whatever)", they go and "new and improve" it.

 

[Jwrags]

Charmin Ultra Soft

 

[Philpug]

Apple products.

YES. Me/us too.

I also in the Cult of Mac and will second Patagonia.

I'm surprised nobody mentioned Kulkea yet.

I don't ride them anymore, but my heart is still with Brooks saddles. And I only buy Brooks running shoes.

On the food side, for those of you who like Italian then add Mutti to your list of ingredients.

Finally, I love Golden brand acrylic paints for painting.
