- rmason 3y agoAs a fan of the All In podcast I figured Chamath got his cashmere sweaters in Italy but until now I didn't know the brand. But $750 for a ball cap? If you were to wear one in SF would the ladies know what you were signaling? Here in the Midwest they might think it was an Italian Tractor manufacturer if they knew at all;<).
