The official thrift/discount store bragging thread

Since i won the pool on Spoo's Gucci jacket (wasn't i sposed to get a prize for that? maybe i imagined it!) - I'll toss a guess on the velcros at $117.59.

unworn dead stock Florsheim from 1975( if I read the serial code right) still has the final inspection sticker 8EEE pretty blobby

ULTIMATE HERMES HAUL











Spoo... you and your Patek catalogue...

A hole!

Nat, how many LP jackets does that make for you now?

Sadly this is only the fourth non-shirt/pants Loro Piana I've found ever. I found a killer quilted cashmere vest a few months ago that will definitely get some use once vest-friendly weather returns to Minnesota.

I bought a car today. It's no Ferrari, but it's like the most reliable car ever, and I'm just happy to have wheels again.




Finally started taking some pictures of recent stuff.





Daniel de Fasson. Nicest Chinese made tie I've ever handled.






These are pretty rough, but I couldn't leave shell.







I should probably post these on Reddit...

Has a John lobb velcro ever been done before? Seriously what is the title going to be?

^^^^^ Nice Kiton haul!

I promised TJGent87 that I would post a fit with this SC today.
My dad's thrifted vintage polo coat
J Peterman baby alpaca scarf, thrift
Hackett SC, B&S
Zegna t-neck, thrift
Zegna trousers, Randomore
Vintage W. E. Turner wingtips, thrift

This is exactly how I wish I dressed. But it's really hard to break into this when all guides are either 'how to dress as a college student' and 'hey, this is how you wear starter suits and ties for the workplace'.

320 on velcro. I have high hopes

Stopped by to pick up some chinos for @Thrift Vader And wound up with a little bit more.
Had been looking at picking up a bar of Otter Wax, and at 6$ I thought I might as well, and buddy wanted some too. Grabbed some Terrapin stationary, which was nifty and cheap, couple of NWT scarves, one for me, and one for someone else. BB Bow was a thrift from a bit ago.

Man I love this shop and the random assortment of stuff they get in sometimes.








They also had a bunch of Georg Jenson housewears, a back issue of Clutch, 3 sets of new Persols





Hat: Goorin
Coat: Wilkes Bashford
Jacket: Cricketeer HT
Sweater: BB
Shirt: Save Khaki
Tie: Lochcarron Bowie
Jeans: Raleigh
Shoes: Hannover LWB shells, swapped to Florshiem shell loafers because I was going to play with shoes in the store.
Scarf: Johnstons Cashmere

^^ That looks like an awesome discount stop!

outerwear dudes...know anything about this company?

also, what was that link that went over all the different vintage outerwear brands?

Just saw this. Holubar, if in good shape is an auto-kop. I'll echo Fueco in saying it's some of the best vintage outerwear.

Spoiler: Talk About Flipping Stuff On Ebay So I Spoilered It

Damn a Harley Shearling? That's probably a solid few hundred bucks on the bay. Authentic Harley Davidson leathers fuckin kill it.

Spoiler: eBay Talk

Totally agree. I usually run everything as BIN but I may have to give this one a go on auction. Feels like an item that could go bananas.

More than likely 70's, prior to their royal warrant being issued. Have a bowtie from around the same time.

Thank you much for the info!

Two finds from today:

PRL Suede Jacket

Gloverall Original Duffle Coat
