@HansderHund pretty funny, I actually have that very same Sopranos dvd box, definitely random seeing it outside of Finland. And congrats!

This was a head scratcher.

cartoon tag has square corners. They will always have rounded corners. Like so. That and color on yours is to bright should look faded.

100% fuggazi. Tag is way too vibrant. Patch logo looks off. Check the certilogo serial if it's pre-2013. Post 2013 should have hologram. Also the jacket should have Lampo zippers across the whole jacket. Stitching should be on point as well. Too many fakes out there.

Finds from today. One store, two pickups:

Awesome shearling boots. Photos make the color more saturated than they are in real life, quite a bit more pale in reality. The soles look unworn aside from 3 rocks in the treads. Wild & Wald is an Austrian store that has traditional hunting and outdoor stuff.

Alico makes some seriously nice boots. I have a pair of their hiking boots that I picked up from STP. Them and Zamberlan are my two favorite makers for hiking.


Here are the ones I have. I picked them up in the fall of 2015 for about $120.

Funny enough, I thought they'd be something up your alley when I saw them. I'm really impressed with the quality. They don't say anything about shearling, but it feels real to me.

Edit: Similar to these. Thanks for the tipoff!

Is this Prince of Wales Check?

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

My understanding is that the term "prince of wales check" only applies to woolen fabric.
