You got my 2nd vote coming your way @capnwes !

Highlights from this Memorial Day weekend's haul, including brodeetz about that Mister Freedom piece. A mix of true thrift and recycled fashion spots waaay within the 90% rule, in 3 different cities. A pretty decent mix of loot too!
,
RLBL and Zegna Soft 100% silk shawl collar unvented jacket








NWT Kiton linen shirt and Isaia half lined SC






Dior Homme beetle embroidered shirt and waxed denim. @SpooPoker Authenticity check, please?






















Levi's x Filson denim vest












Mister Freedom brodeetz... this one came with a couple of light stains. Would it be relatively safe to use the oxyclean spot method on this?

Can anyone identify this leather? I bought several motorcycle/leather vests recently and bragged about them on here. But, I got a question from a buyer about this one.

Most of them (I got several) are just typical calf. But, this one looks different. It has a soft texture sort of like suede. But, it is not quite that nappy. It also has, as you can see in the pictures), these little dots. I thrifted a pair of capybara shoes one time. But, the holes/dots on it are totally different. These don't have the depth of capybara.

Any ideas?

Looks like eel or sting ray to me. Just my thoughts.

So, I missed finding shell on 2 consecutive outings, I hate droughts. Luckily I found 3 pairs on the last trip to make up for it. Brings me back up to 8 pairs in 8 trips.

What is your major malfunction?

Speaking of you, at what point do we become concerned that our sudden and stratospheric trajectory for your cindergrilla success triggers allegations of shennanigans and shuts the whole **** down?

Barely in the lead, bro. It's going to be close. But in truth, they provided each contestant with website widgets and links in order to round up their own votes from friends and family. This is all to be expected and completely within the rules. I'm just not allowed to create multiple user logins and vote repeatedly for myself, or use an automated voting tool.

I think the point of contests like this is to get people to click on their website.

No, the point is for Wes to win a new grill!

Quote: +1. It's not about the object its about all of us signing up and going to the site. The more the better in advertising. Wes is doing 100% exactly what they want him to do. Tell all of us about the site so we visit it.

 

[capnwes]

Don't think to hard about it. It's simple.
