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

[othertravel]

Potential e-thrift opportunity (these look like cordovan, by Lattanzi). May need to by resoled/cleaned up.

Brioni men's shoes. Vibram Sole Brown. Size 10.5 | eBay

No sizing marked other than what is written inside which looks like N 10 ½. Easily improved by a good cobbler, I'm sure.

You can't go in halfway and think it's a home run

Yeah it was kind of a joke due to what i assumed was a crazy GW price…like this beauty:

Well I won them with a best offer. We'll see what they are like after they arrive.

Those for sure look shell.

JFC, we have a GW boutique that did that, and I thought they'd come down eventually, but never did. I could make a separate thread with all the obnoxious prices. It was only 2 blocks from my office too.

That's good to know! Brioni still offers shell models, but they may have since changed manufacturers.

A thrifting grail. Just sitting there with last weeks color tag. Mint from the 50s?

Tis what separates us from the pretend/post-COVID/YouTube flip-dicks.

We don’t need the eBay app or a YouTuber to tell us about something cool. We have SF and spoo! 😂

My week so far

This looks unused based on the belting, leather, and overall condition.

Found my first Magee yesterday and my second today.

Digging yesterday’s a lot and it fits. Really well tailored it seems to me. ‘83 and double vented.

I knew that 15” bear was a good find… I admit though that I was hoping it wouldn’t sell in two days so I could enjoy it as decor.

 

[LaundryRoom]

A few recent finds…

Hello, old friend…

I’m giving these to LaundryRoom, Jr…photos are after I cleaned them up. The colorway is “Blue Tint”.

 

[Conclusive]

Hopefully a pop for me.

Looks similar to comps I've found online, but if anybody notices something off, please let me know.

Also...

Does anyone know if it's possible to get something like this out of a silk tie, or is it a lost cause? My last attempts to fix up a silk tie went horribly, so it might be time to resign myself to the dry cleaners.

 

[wumpyfish]

imo its real and I'll send you diy link that has worked for me
