El Presidente Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Lost another shirt last Thursday. It was a cracker, had it for 10 + years, a pink Borelli masterpiece. ....just tried to keep that ash on a little too long ...dropped on the sleeve while on the phone...realised too late Over the years I have lost pants, shirts and one laptop screen. Apparently they don't resist a butane torch lighter at close quarters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeafLover Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 No clothing. But four outdoor patio chairs in my backyard have large holes in them. You burned your shirt? Rob, you are such a noob!.....LOL. (quoting a wise, wine critic bachelor..."No disrespect.") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maverickdrinker Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 One of my favorite suits.....too much fun, libations, cigars and good scenery caused a temporary lapse of attention to detail.... Had a nice hole for ventilation in my pants that I noticed the day after....lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lotusguy Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Couple of shirts and a pair of shorts so far. Usually it happens when I am trying to balance a glass of single malt at the same time. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orion21 Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 My wife believes every shirt I have worn while smoking was ruined . . . I lost one golf windbreaker to a dropped cigar. Burned a nice 52rg hole right thru it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finecigar Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Lost a couple windbreakers, a tshirt, pair of lounge pants... can't remember what else. nothing too valuable so that's a plus sorry for your loss of a Borelli... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PapaDisco Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Y'know . . . I don't think it's the cigars that are at fault . . . I think it's the drinking while smoking a cigar that's at fault. I only seem to drop 2" of ash in my lap sometime AFTER the third scotch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polarbear Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 I lost a pair of pants and a phone. Its a bad idea to get drunk and smoke a cigar while texting. You throw your phone off the deck and put the lit cigar in your pocket :-( 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainQuintero Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 A pair of pyjamas and boxers, both got a new peep hole but saved my future children! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patric M Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 I burned up my keyboard one with some ash. A few of the keys took a hit. It was lucky, I wen to a mac repair shop to see if I could buy they burt keys and the guy gave me a busted keyboard out of a mac so I could swap my burnt keys.

sharks Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Yet to have lost anything to the leaf as yet although have plenty of battle scars and I am Sure there will be plenty more to come. Most if not all clothes are used again and again especially During the winter months when layers become important here in Melbourne and practicality Outways style (in my backyard anyhow) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

srbbones Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 I've got a pair of scrubs with some holes! now they are my smoking scrubs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newkarian Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Burned a hole right in the thigh of my favorite suit. I blame it on the booze though. Hard to pass up double pours of Bookers bourbon while in vegas lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramon_cojones Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Have only burned a hole in a tee shirt when I unknowingly pointed my lit cigar downward and came into contact with it. During the summer I was smoking on my patio shirtless and a huge ash fell on my stomach and burned me lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ramon_cojones Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 unfortunately borrelli is not the quality it once was, they've cheapened production greatly over the past few years and i'm pretty sure they're made in a factory lol rob look at isaia, kiton and barba for a replacement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marker Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Put a hole in a pair of pants (and the shorts underneath) but didn't notice until the next day. They are now smoking pants. No shirts lost yet but the day will come. I smoke in old Tshirts mostly so no issue. If I need to wear a jacket while smoking that is kept in the garage and it washed a couple times a year.

JimC Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Only lost 1 shirt... just lucky I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Presidente Posted February 10, 2014 Author Share Posted February 10, 2014 rob look at isaia, kiton and barba for a replacement Thanks for the heads up! Those older Borrelli were brilliant. Held their shape and colour for a decade even with once a week wear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mk05 Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 I wear pretty much the same jacket and pants when smoking. Many holes but that's what theyre for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laxman Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Never burned any clothes thus far but have burnt myself quite a few times as I smoke without a shirt in the summer and have some battle scares to show it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GnarlyEggs Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Never lost anything yet! Usually when my ash falls it hits the ground! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
