The official thrift/discount store bragging thread

[concealed]

Is the German maker of Paul Stuart suits a known brand? Picked up a beauty in 42L, seems extremely recent

Few pairs of pants in 36W - Em's of Masons (never heard, but really high quality, split waistband etc) in a cool dark patterned moleskin material, insanely thick and heavy military twill, khaki color, flat front Polo by Corneliani, pleated Canali, Black D&G corduroys

Can get pics later, but all available.

Paul and Shark flannely shirt XL


Canal (super dark navy) 36



Em's of Masons: cool moleskin material with interesting pattern. Quality is super high, split waist band, etc. 36



Dolce & Gabbana Black Cords 36, weird lighting makes em look green, but they are soft velvetty black



heaviest pair of twill pants ever touched, Polo by Corneliani 36


Paul Stuart Suit: looks so recent, but made in Germany? tiny stain on lapel

Its older... nice looking though. Had one like that which I think went to a thread member. You can tell quick by the tag. One city = oldest, 2 cities = old, 3 cities = newish

not really a brag or even a large discount but I am stoked about winning this
measurements are perfect, it is real leather has cool pockets is a super classic bomber style ect. I would have gladly paid more for it although 78 is pretty steep especially considering it is american living (lets not get into the jc penny debate again though)

Jesus, why do you people hate me?

I'M WAY TOO COMPETITIVE NOT TO TAKE THIS WITH DEADLY SERIOUSNESS

Mother farkers.

I went out today as Beowulf to fulfill the quest set for me by Grendel. I came back with bags of stuff. But before you get excited, I failed. Sort of. Barbera Sartoriale by St. Andrews (I think), but unvented and besom pockets. Sulka, but very old tie and shirt, each of which that have damage. Trafalgar braces x2. Super old, super awesome Brooks Brothers Chesterfield. Some other stuff, but nowhere near the volume of awesome that's been extracted from my home state in recent days. (Plus I cheated; much of my searching was in New York). Passed on a very decent solid gray double breasted, dual vented Aquascutum orphan because I lacked the patience to search for the pants needle in the room-sized haystack of men's trousers. And on one of the nicest, most recent Isaia SCs I've seen recently because they wanted an absurd -- no, I mean like an order of magnitude plus above normal thrift prices -- amount for it.

Hah ha. Remember that I am in possession of the NWOT Kiton suit circa 2011, discovered by Troika and purchased by Mexicutioner and transferred to me.
