These questions are a bit hard to answer because nobody here knows what $19 means to you. If that $19 will go to stave off mortgage foreclosure, I would go Coach. If $19 is what you spend on one drink at a bar after work, going J is a no brainer. Only you can evaluate the quality vs. cost comparison and only you can say what is important to you. For me, $19 on a 3-hour run is an easy call. Work, relaxation, and general atmospherics make it an easy call.
