[sandfourman]

@sandfourman one of my local thrifts has a dedicated Shein rail, I don’t know why.

From last week, probably my best find ever, £20.

Does that say Kapital?

Wow...when it comes to this stuff, the repros can be almost spot on. Thats where the smell test comes in. Haha. If they smell old, they're probably the real deal. If that's the case, that's a cheapies nomination!

What specifically is that? I am looking at vintage tiger camo on the bay, nothing jumping out as very highly valuable.

Does that say Kapital?

Katherine Hamnett I think

Some nice picks this morning at a random stop. Pretty sure these cute little bear shoes in like New condition are the top pick of the day though.

NOS (recent, Mexico) 501 button fly for $5 was too good to pass up. Size 60x32, might make for inexpensive tenting.

Jeremy Scott made some weird shoes.

These are wild. Was MSRP high or just collectors items now?

Just came back from another stop, killed it. From now on only thrifting on Saturday and Monday lol.

More to follow later.

All in for $148 (plus a couple of other bread and butter not shown) over two stops and two posts apparently. :

This is my first, the more I look at it the more I'm not sure if it is real. What do others think? It has different buttons and zippers but the internet says at least the buttons are okay (maybe). No other tags other than what is shown.

Well, it took only 25 years, but here they are. Grail achieved.

T.O. Stanley bench-made boots in pangolin. True thrift. Unobtainium, impossibly rare, and can’t be sold across state lines. But these are going straight in my closet! Just stunningly beautiful.

Better pix later.

This was a WTH Moment. I saw the label and that it had funky sleeves. I didn't see the back till I came home. I'm thinking 1970s based off of the tag and the character.

I'd love to know the provenance here.

Favourbrook. New retail is insane.

Not sure when I'll ever need a red jacket. Looks to be an orphan in my size but for $8 I'll take it
