Among the reasons the lock-up strategy was obvious bullshit: the choice of products to lock up never made any sense. My hand is big enough to palm a $50 bottle of face lotion without it being clear on camera, but not so with the 84oz bottle of detergent. The latter gets the lock at my Walgreens. 🤷♂️

Are you trying to claim bespoke, couture clothes are entirely sewn by hand? No, they’re not. For one, hand-sewn garments are far more fragile than machine seamed clothes. The lock stitch really was an incredible invention. Couture often has hand-finished aspects, but also machine sewn construction.
