Has anyone seen any J. Press with Korean labels before? It has the Woolmark label inside as well and seems to be reasonably well constructed.

"In 1974, the Press family sold the rights to license J. Press for the Japanese market, making it the first American brand to be licensed in Japan. In 1986, J. Press was acquired by the Japanese apparel company Onward Kashiyama, who had previously been his licensee for 14 years. Japanese licensed distribution is roughly six times larger than the American-made J. Press. J. Press is currently part of the Onward Group (Onward Holdings, Ltd.)." Wikipedia

A few things from an early evening "eh, why not see what's out there" tour.

Orslow made in Japan African Indigo shirt. Everything they make is expensive, so for $9, why not? Perfect for summer!

I rarely find USA made New Balance, but got lucky today for $12. 990RB4 trainers with lots of tread left.

I picked these up today but can’t make out the brand name. It’s Poulo(?) … & Co. Made in UK. Any guesses?

Any thrift store recommendations in the Naples, FL area? I'll be there over the summer and wonder if there are any shops like the ones in Palm Beach.

Sigh...the iron heart thrift is still eluding me against all odds.

Thanks. I listed them here, in case you're interested:

Nice kicks, they are by C&J for Poulsen Skone.

Give it time, it’ll come. If I can find it in Minnesota of all places, there’s hope for all. Haha.

Picked this guy up yesterday. Haven’t seen a pre 60’s Hawaiian shirt in forever. Probably 10 years or more.

Finally got around to photographing the rest of this weekend’s garage sale finds.

Flip. Zeppelin. Flip. Pink Floyd. Flip flip Zeppelin, Neil Young, Who…..screw it. I’ll take the whole box.

Highlights

And a better shot of that Iron Heart from this morning.

just channeled my inner @Nataku and pulled this mid-20th century bamboo etagere from a pile by the street. already got the rogue panels back in place. if it cleans up well tm I should clear around a G off this.


and I thought picking up this minty filson 246 duffel for the price of a publix chicken tender sub would be the highlight of the day.
