I think the point here is that you can buy a golden (colored) fleece at Macy’s for a lot less than it costs to outfit an expedition full of argonauts. But where’s the fun in that?
Nicely played sir, very nicely played. On the archeological/historical side the thought is the golden fleece was fleeces used to capture gold flakes from stream.

But when you’re going to Macy’s, you have to pull over when you hear a siren.

“And Lo, Jason quickly returned with six fresh golden Turkish bath towels and a robe from Macy’s” just doesn’t quite have the same ring to it though.

The Golden Fleece from a winged ram. A magickal object.

I doubt that a golden fleece would feel much better than steel wool.

No, no, no! It wasn’t Jason who had the “Fleece of Many Colors”! That was that captive-advisor to Pharaoh.
Jason is strictly in it for the Golden Fleece; accept no substitutes, Daddy-o!

I see Cupids arrow just missed Jason by a smidge, what ramifications do that have…….

If the fleece is from a winged ram they should be flying of the shelf at Macy’s…..
