60/40 Silk/Cotton Brioni tie - 7/10 condition (small indentation in the fabric on the front and inkspot on the back) but still wearable and it's Brioni so I couldn't leave it behind. Anyone want this for cost+shipping?

First time every thrifting today... I can see how this can be addictive. Not as good as some of you guys, but found a really nice Loro Piana Dress Shirt 15 3/4 x 33 (maybe 34). Really nice buttons and in good condition. Unfortunately too big for me.

Also found but passed on a J.Press Blazer, a bunch of Hickey Freeman Blazers and a Brooks Brothers 1 Btn Tux (Silver Brooks Brothers Label, Hand Made). Should I have picked this stuff up to toss on the B&S section / Ebay? Each item was $10 or under....

I think I did OK.....funny as I've only found 2 other Loro Piana Shirts and 1 other Silver Label Brooks Brothers in the last year and a half. Not a bad first day.....

Where is DM7's first post

Amazing what you can do with some effort and dedication and not expect everything handed to you.

THRIFT FIRST: Gant 'The Rugger' pop-over green-ish-brown-ish-white-ish plaid thingie. XL but may fit slim, who knows. Pretty sweet.

I can't believe BoO, Unis, Naked and Famous, etc continues to surface. :slayer:

What color is label on the gant? Even some of the not so great used "The Rugger" moniker I do believe.

Dig got me curious and I went back in time to almost this date 6 years ago to dig up my first post in this thread. I remember this day pretty well too.

Swung by the Goodwill after work today - picked up some good stuff.


- Thomas Pink shirt (blue with green check) 16.5 34/35

- Tailor and Son Sportswear sweater...gourgeous red with tan/brown argyle (Made in Italy) Anyone ever heard of this name?


- Alea white/blue check shirt (size 41)

- four cream Corneliani shirts, all NWT (size 39, but fit me)

- Edri Pisano lime green/pink dress shirt. STUNNING shirt (size 16)

- Joseph's Cloak brown with light blue stripes, french cuff (size 41)


All shirts were $4.99


- Tan 3 button wool blazer by Satoria Battisti (below the name is says Albiate -mi- Italia) Anyone heard of this name? Very high quality blazer with hand picking and gorgeous gold silk lining. $8.99


Also picked up a pair of Rogers LS 3/5a studio monitors for $3.99 a piece. Sound AMAZING. The guy obviously took great care of these. Snagged a few lps as well for .99 a piece. All VG+ to NM They were:


- Niel Merryweather, John Richardson and Boers self-titled. Awesome psych lp

- Niel Merryweather - Kryptonite

- Uriah Heep - self-titled

I don't remember having ever seen Malo on this thread, and I've only come across it once. I found a buttery soft linen button down about a year ago, but this time I found a cashmere SC...

Got myself a Zegna sport coat 54ita in grey nailhead and a Corneliani sport coat 54ita (but I think short not R or sleeves shortened a bit) grey again, nailheadish. Also ToBoot NY split toes 10D which awfully looks like shell but I don't think this company does shell. SA shopping!


I will trade the Cornelianis, they went to cleaners today so PM me if you want, I will send pics after it comes from cleaners.


First post. No pics as usual :D Shoes were corrected grain of course, worn until this year and redonated.
