To those who have told me this, I can only say: neener-neener-neener. More and more companies are offering customers the choice to customize the products they buy. Vans, among others, allows you to create your own shoes. Heck, I’ve even seen a build-your-own-toy-lightsaber kit that I really wanted to buy for my son.
But this is a new wrinkle to me.
Why is this thrilling, exactly? I’ll tell you why.
Have you ever noticed that roughly 99 percent (anecdotal research on my part) of all clothing stores are devoted to women’s apparel? Seriously, if you’re a guy, you’ve got like maybe four colors and two styles of dress shirt to choose from. This is where those video game skills come in handy.
