Starting off on the right foot. Something for me and my first Golden Fleece tie! Had to pass on a Chipp tie that was a bit rough.

Tomorrow is my birthday and I'm going to treat myself by thrifting my entire route (or as much as I can before they all close). I've been a bit lax lately because my camera is on loan, but can't beat birthday luck.

I wont go out today, that is my birthday present to you Happy Birthday man and deets on your haul!?

Some colours and some boring stuff from me today.



Harmont and Blaine. So raw, but fit a little too slim and short on me. Tagged 50.

Simon Carter polo in a large.

I went for this because I could throw it into a bunch of outfits easily, but nothing special. Bossini.

Arnold Palmer. Again, nothing special, but I could use some seersucker shorts.




Not sure if this is anything... American Rag Cie Tailored. I just grabbed it because of the cut and design. Its unstructured, but has padded shoulders and some other weird stuff going on. Figured it may be some unreasonably priced SW company but I'm sure I was wrong about that.

That haul is the weirdest haul I've come across no offense haha. Just not used to seeing things that we pass up on everyday

 

[rokor]

Haha, well in my defense it was mostly exchanges, other than the polo and pants which I would count as wins.

 

[Fueco]

Cherry. Popped. Thank you @capnwes's territory!

Dibs on the carpet bro!

I have an oppurtunity to buy an Belvest suit at a great price, its second hand and i have a few questions about the fit. Im wondering if the shoulders are too wide, what do you guys think? The arms also are too short and need to be lenghtended and it has to be taken in over the shoulderblades. Thank you for your help!

Try the tailoring advice thread. Looks good from the front, and shoulder width looks good to me, but I'd be worried about the messy back. Had a similar issue once and had to get the arm holes recut and it's still not perfect.

Dibs on the carpet bro!

If only it was mine! I'm house sitting at the moment, which has given me the opportunity to live in a house furnished with antiques and random cool stuff for a while. I'm actually using a granite end table from the 17th century as a desk right now

Seriously. That is insane.

I'm probably the only person who saw that haul and messaged him about one of the hangers
