No hits on a pair of Ironhearts?   surprising.   looks like ebay will have a new vendor.........  

If they were my size (and if shipping from Japan weren't prohibitive) I might, but let's not go there again.

Depending on color and condition I can usually get around $50 each

They are nice but passed on two Sir Pendletons the other day...winter might be a different story!

Found a really awesome 3 patch pocket Samuelsohn sc last night but it was unvented.

Blargh!

Never heard of this brand, but Corneliani is the maker, right dudes?

.

I think that’s a Caruso tag, ins’t it?

[Thrift Vader]

so, you are dropping a deuce and have to think whether a double vented or unvented is more convenient...........

not to mention how well unvented or single vents fit...

That tag is wrong on the ID thread. That's Corneliani.

Funny, it’s a darn good match for the one on my Caruso suit, and doesn’t match my (older) Corneliani tag. Mine match those in the ID thread.

Funny, it's an exact match for this Corneliani suit because it's a Corneliani tag.

Lol!

Unvented poops are the worst.

While the two have their similarities....usually, at least on the Caruso tags I have seen, there is "made in Italy" in a more central location than on the Corneliani tag.

Yes, some moderator needs to change the post in the ID thread. So much confusion because of it.

Hi dig! How ya been man?

Busy, distracted and bloated. I'm having fitment issues with a LOT of my shirts and pants.

No fit pics for me for a while!

Alright, ****** cell phone pics. One stop, two stores side by side.

Very recent HSM Made in USA staple Navy Pinstripe

Sweet as **** Astor and Black

And last but not least, one of my most bad ass finds ever. Not sure if it's worth anything at all but this thing is ******* sweet. Made by a custom tailor in Toronto in ******* 1953. Yes, 1953. This thing has got to be NWOT or extremely close to it. Amazing condition for something over 60 years old. Triple patch, tons of handwork, this thing is the real deal!



Not pictured:
3x Lanvin ties.

That jacket is insane!

Great piece of vintage Canadiana. Warren K Cook stuff is of exceptional quality (at least pre-Coppley buyout).
It doesn't tend to do all that well on the bay unless you're really, really patient. Not too many people know the brand.
