Slow out here, but found these really nice Stuart’s Choice suede oxfords. Are these Grenson?

Somebody would have to confirm but washing at 30c isn't cold...

 

[goatamous II]

That looks good to me - seems like a random item to fake

Our summer cowboy holiday is coming up in July so lots of hats out of the woodwork. It’s not 100% beaver but 4X beaver is better than no beaver. Especially for $8

Also anyone know how to identify model of RBs?

Like you guys, I love clothes!
Imagine spending six years thrifting and reselling.
I've learned a lot and have amassed a pretty cool collection of rare things.

Like cheap Alden snuff suede loafers? Edward Green Galway boots, Loro Piana, Berluti, Hermes, Arnys, etc?

I posted a bunch of stuff today, hope you don't mind me bringing it to your attention here.

Jeez, those Alden & EG are sweet.
Quick live hit- the orange is a Pucci skirt.

 

[Jackstraw001]

Random find but pretty cool.

 

[Jackstraw001]

A few other minor finds.

Personal staples…Orvis vest, orange tab MIUSA Levi’s and Patagucci shorts.


‘96 Olympics swag for my boys. T-shirt is cool because it’s embroidered.


Any Bay Area guys here? @Centaurus3200, @CWOyaji ?? I was in college and remember watching Game 3 of the ‘89 World Series (Giants vs A’s) with a fraternity brother who was from Mill Valley, just north of San Francisco, when this earthquake hit. Pretty scary.

i felt that earthquake in the san joaquin valley , my in laws were at the game it took em like 15 hours to get back to the east bay

 

[ocooney]

I was at game 1 of that series and in Santa Clara when the quake hit. Terrifying. Fun fact is that the A’s won the series using only 3 pitchers with the delay.

You ever take someone’s clothes, and then feel kinda bad afterwards? I experienced this today.

Found this poor old guy laying on the curb. He was wearing some pretty cool clothes. I took him home and took his clothes. I felt kinda bad, as he must have really loved those clothes. They had great patina. Oh well. Now he has no clothes…..




















Sitting in the free pile at a garage sale. Saw what looked like a 40’s-50’s pullover and vintage Levi’s. Based on that alone, I had to bring him home. Sadly he had to be disassembled.

Got him home.

Left him here for awhile and probably freaked some neighbors out.

His stuffing was all dated 1981. He had a good run after creeping kids out on Halloween for over 40 years. His clothes will live on…

Funny you mention the A's, given the current drama of them moving to Las Vegas.

I guess a fan is divesting themselves of their A's collection.

Brand new vintage made in USA hard hats. I didn't buy them, but $4.99 each.

 

[Centaurus3200]

I'll probably regret buying this thing, but you know how it goes. I'd regret it the moment I walked out the door. So, $22 later, this 1960s Canon 518 auto-zoom super 8 is yet another albatross to see if it works and sell. Haha!

Looks pretty clean, no corrosion in the battery department, despite the made in USA vintage AA in there.

Comps can be good, but kinda all over the place.
