The Official Thrift / Discount Store Bragging Thread Part III (Sept 2018-)

[SimonC]

Not been out much recently although have a few e-thrifts to share in another post. Nice little stop today whilst in a provincial town; someone’s party wardrobe, the two shown on the lower photo are both suits, one in tonik mohair and the other in a flower-pattern fabric which literally has metal in the weave. Will probably hold that one back to list around party season:

In DC proper and not Maryland or Northern Virginia? Wow

I need those pigskins to be in my size. Kickoff in about 3 weeks...

Lots of Eton shirts

RLPL and Biryani

There was some other fodder I grabbed (Sammy suits, etc), but not too exciting. So much for clearing the backlog, lol . . . always stuff coming in . . .

A few recent finds...

Guys, I have to give it you US lads…

I have never seen so many Jos A Bank suits and Cole Haan shoes in my life. Flicking through that stuff was torture.

Jos Banks at least puts their tag on the collar which saves a lot of time.

Concert was like 3 weeks ago and this already hit the thrift.


1995 single needle Jacksonville Jaguars, really good shape.


I buy a million books but I thought these were worth posting. Reminds me that a lot of the stuff we buy have stories and histories we know nothing about.

Not bad for $4. Fresh tape too. Maybe I should learn to play?

sold price from ebay.

I also have no idea what a good racquet is but I got these together for about $8 each.

Eton polka tie

 

[PGRoadhouse]

Latesummer doldrums are real, but there’s still some diamonds amid all the rough

pop on mainline TB, one of those ‘only thing in a picked over store 20 before close’ deals

thommy wants 950 bucks for a cotton hoodie… bro…

whoever priced this never unzipped it and I almost flipped right by but those buttons pinged my radar

linen or woven wool, mostly unlined, great futuristic space emperor vibes
ties from the same fella-

womens outerwear x 3

lulu parka in black & packable in blue

Nifty camo barbour

vintage jordan miusa champion, not the real good stuff but still good stuff

vintage and contemporary shorts

budweiser cutoffs are 60/70s sears with talon zips, i don’t understand the AN hype but i won’t question it

vintage disney can be iffy, but ^ seemed like a no brainer at $5
bags, likely keepers

preme aw 17 cordura

dope little tnf crossbody/fanny pack

$2 boat n tote with a nice script monogram

had a decent hat find of my own, sadly too tight on my domepiece

been keeping an eye out for a decent pair of white framed shades

80s suncloud, frame france with those wild yellow glareblocker lenses

and while he’s no shakespeare, i found some very contemporaneous reading material the other week…

that’s it for now. stay frosty my fellow thrifters, autumn is imminent and soon the racks will overflow with outerwear and sweaters.

Now try doing it 8 hours a day five days a week for about 15 years .
Still hasn't gotten old though.

 

[Juntao90]

@impuntura The thrifting itself never gets tiring. Those other people are what get annoying.

 

[Sartoriamo]

Quick question for the collective expertise on here: vintage Dior for Harrods in London. Made in England, obviously hand tailored, not the usual diffusion crap. Anyone recognize clues as to maker?

Finally had a lucrative week after a pretty long thrift store dry spell this summer.

First pair of Common Projects I've found and they're in my size and in remarkably good shape. I've coveted a pair for awhile now and had basically resigned myself to never finding them, and having to shell out a couple hundred bucks.

First unmarred Kiton jacket I've found. Shame it doesn't fit me, but shouldn't be too hard to sell.

Olive green Isaia sportscoat - always nice to find a 54L for me.

Oxxford glen check silk/wool sportscoat.

Made in Italy Polo Ralph Lauren corduroy hacking jacket with elbow patches.

Made in Italy Polo Ralph Lauren navy blazer

Burberry, Berluti, and Sulka ties.

Found a pair of Donegal tweed pants with the only information being "Worsted Alsport Made in England Hardy Minnis". After a quick search, it looks like that's just the weaver, so am I correct in thinking these are likely bespoke pants?

Does anyone know anything about Imogene and Willie? Found a pair of raw selvedge jeans and workpants in my size, and they seem nice, but I haven't seen the brand come up here before.

^ i think leftofthedial did some work with imogene + willie
