Sometimes i find baby moths nibbling on my rick and julius tees, it's no big deal I usually catch them in my hands and set them free outside.

Usually items like Ann Dem and Rick are pretty delicate and will eventually get holes in it from general wear it's no big deal, tbh that hole looks sick and probably adds some character of it. Basically if you're that pent up offer holes you're probably going for the wrong aesthetic anyways

Aston Martins are geared towards a different aesthetic than an intentionally delicate top or pair of trousers. Don't think Aston Martin... think racecar. Sure, a racecar has paint chips and that subtle chassis flex, but at least you can say that you had a hell of a time driving it.

which is why i said OP is going towards the wrong aesthetic, if he wants nice clothes with no holes he should've bought Kiton or Brunello Cucinelli instead of Ann Dem who is notorious for making loose knits with delicate fabrics and construction bound to get holes in it

you buy the ashton martin because its a nice car and can go fast, I buy rick and julius because of the materials and how they age, I'd be disappointed if my rick tees didn't get holes just as you'd be disappointed if your ashton martin didn't go fast
