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

Thats the good LRL.

I did not think the words good and LRL could be used in the same sentence. Department store diffusion line that is all made in China. At the same time…anything Ralph that is Aztec, Navajo, you buy. This is LRL but has all the tells of a RRL piece.

I think it also surprised me when I saw people in here post about a following of “Denim & Supply”.

@impuntura pretty sure. The tags are the same as my old pair I had I can’t see why a fake would have the many labels, branded buttons and care instructions as a real pair does.

...to make them look real.lol.
I've seen many fakes that have many lables branded buttons, care etc.
I'm.not saying they are fakes but something seems off about them like the poster said something seems off despite the good signs.
That size tag looks funny to me.
And a few other things,I don't know just a gut instinct (although it's been wrong before)

The things that give me pause are that the "30" on the size tag seems a lot closer to the bottom of the tag than on most comps I can find, and this tag just looks a little off in general (stitching looks kind of jank, text is off-center):

Everything else looks very close though, even down to like the stitching pattern on the letters.

Exactly the same as my old pair. Would be good to know though!

Snagged these Allen Edmonds Manchester loafers in my size for $2 at my local thrift. Not a lot of competition for 15C.

My gf was gonna get me this cologne and I find it in a thrift.
Sealed,I opened it because it's a keeper.
Cool magnetic top cap.

Seems off, Frenchy. The font seems wrong and they spelt Toilet wrong.

What about the care tags though

Are you sure ?
Seem off to me.

Also that buttonhole looks raggedy as fuc.

Pop on this brand of kid’s balance bikes.

this pair has janky button hole stitching but thats what you get from thrashing a pair of jeans. Look at the amount of wear the ones posted here have. There's no way the stitching wouldn't come loose after this hardship.

I vote real still.
