    I knew that I would see some Aloha shirts during my recent holiday in Hawaii, but I didn't think that I would see this many at a local Savers!

    Has anyone had any success finding quality items thrifting in Honolulu? I did some research and there are a few spots to visit. Just hoping to find more than Hawaiian shirts and board shorts!

    Does anyone know if Red Wing shoe company ever made leather jackets? I found a bomber style jacket with a removable fur collar for $14. Tags says Red Wing with the logo but I can't seem to find any information online. Photos to follow.

     Trust me....I looked for a while trying to find the pants! I was hoping that it was a Sports coat but I can still make use of it. I did find the buttons in the inside pocket. Unfortunately, one of the cuff buttons is broken. Never even thought of looking for them in the pocket. Thanks again!

    Looking for some expertise. I thrifted a brand new with tags Brooks Brothers Madison sports coat? Or is it an orphan suit jacket? It still has the basting on the shoulders and looks like it has surgeon's cuffs but no buttons or button holes. Is this normal? I am not too familiar with Brooks...

     I own Walnut and Bourbon Daltons and love them both equally. I wear them with my suits as much as I wear them with jeans. I found that they took a little longer to break in compare to my other AE's but once broken in, they feel fantastic! Congrats!

    Thanks for your input. The thing is the 10d in the Walton fit me quite well. I just have to get used to the "wideness" of the shoe.

    Just picked up a hand me down pair of Waltons from my dad. Is it me or are they a wider looking shoe than my Daltons and Franciscans? My feet fit perfectly (10d) but when I look down at them they seem abnormally wide. Is this due to the split reverse welt? Just curious.... Thanks!

    Just a question for the thrifting veterans. Is a made to measure jacket from an unknown tailor worth any less if the materials used are high quality? I found a custom made Suit jacket with Zegna Cashmere fabric but no pants. Is there value in this?

    Took a picture of my Bourbon Daltons while i was in the dentist's chair. No cavities!

    Does anyone know how to date this suit from the tags? It says Givenchy Gentlemen Paris on the inside but has a "made in USA" tag in the chest pocket. The only thing that I can see that resembles a date is the "82". I love the suit but I know there is not enough fabric to turn a 40 into a 44. The...

    Thanks for the input. I was hoping that it was worth something! Did you try and sell on Ebay?

    A question for the veteran posters. Are their other ways other than Ebay where someone could go to try and determine the value of something? I'm not looking for someone to give me a value (I read a few posts back that that's a no no) but just some guidance on where I could find some info. I...

    Received my Bourbon Daltons today. It will be very hard to decide between these new boots and the Walnut Daltons I already have! I went down in half size length and up in width on these new boots and they fit just fine. I put a half sole on my Walnuts and debating whether I should just leave...

    Hello. New to this thread and wanted to share my first 2 thrifted pieces. One is a Navy Samuelsohn Sports coat and the other is a vintage YSL tie. With a few simple alterations, I will be wearing my new found pieces. Picked up both for under 18 bucks. I passed on a couple orphaned Brooks...

    I agree! I took that picture as soon as they came out of the box. You would think that they came polished from the factory!

    Received my new Franciscan Monk Straps today. I needed a black pair of shoes that I could wear with a suit as well as jeans. These certainly fit the build! They are a tad loose but nothing that tongue pads could not remedy. For those of you that have monk straps, do you slip them on and off or...
