In the field - anyone recognize the footbed / logo / nail pattern on this pair of monkstraps? Made in Spain, no maker's name anywhere. TIA.

Yay.
I'm not too familiar with these thicker silk twill ties...

Can someone break down the Tom Ford Rive Gauche thing for me? Is it made by Zegna? What are the identifiers that mark it as the Tom Ford Era?

 

[Ace_Face]

Anybody want this PRL popover I thrifted? NWT, size medium.

 

[dukedishin]

Some interesting items among the fodder...

Ascot Chang popover

Michael Bastian x Uniqlo polo, really cool Bengal stripe button down collar and cuffs

Also very interesting, this band collar western shirt by WAH Makers. Seem to hold value really well.

 

[SpooPoker]

Sure, why not.

 

[SpooPoker]

**** yeah. 1973 bill graham original. Fifty cents. Keith moon overdose show

Great find - found one in burgundy a few months ago that did very well

Odd and off topic question: I've been picking up old hangers. Is there any concern the hardware is lead?

No, lead is too soft, they're steel. Only possibility of lead paint if they're painted (not clear coat, not screen printed) before '78.

One shot, one kill today.
Ndcmadebyhand. Not crazy about the contrast stitching, but I've been needing a snuff suede oxford. They'll do for now.

still have like 70+ pages of this thread to get through catching up after a couple weeks traveling, but I'm happy to report my wife has finally caught the bug and has been hitting a number of estate sales and thrifts lately. She brought home this wooden vanity yesterday. From Canada Furniture Manufacturers out of Woodstock, ON, circa 1909. Just gotta make some room for it in the bedroom and convince the cat to hang out elsewhere.

 

[impuntura]

Both very handsome
