Is that just a buildup of the oils?

I think I read something on PTO about using a 50/50 vinegar/water mix

It's likely bloom. Brush vigorously with a horsehair brush...

Hit it with the brush for about 5 minutes so far and they are already looking pretty fuckin killer, I'll post some before and after pics when I'm finished

Before and after shots of old shell can be pretty amazing.

Without throwing around too many details, I will just say that Birmingham thrifting was the absolute **** today!

Just found out one of my local stores is having a "everything is two dollars" sale this weekend. I'm already afraid of how insane it'll be.

@SpooPoker would suggest that you hit it tonight.

Nothing crazy lately but a few things to keep and a few to send out...

Thanks. Shame. Like almost 20 pairs of size 34. Thought I had hit a thriftening of incotex.

Try your local Nordstrom rack. You will have to look hard but you might get lucky. I picked up a Incotex and a NWT Incotex red for $30 a pop.

There's a pair of Rockport shoes in the 'Endangered Species' Import display case here at Logan airport. I think someone goofed.

There is some other pretty ridiculous stuff though including elephant and croc/gator briefcase, snow leopard skin, polar bear mukluks, cheetah jacket...

Apologies for the glare.

Anyone ever seen this Pendleton tag before? No size and says hand tailored which I've never seen

Going to shoot for 40s, possibly earlier. Probably earlier; based on the look of the thread and material of the tag. Is it a Topster?
