Well done. Lets see the 44-46s!

Found a few cool things over the last few weeks:


Allen Edmonds Brentwood 8D (from 2003 I believe according to the type inside but in amazing condition).




Charles Tyrwhitt gray with white and red stripes, spread collar, french cuffs, perfect condition.

Hickey Freeman Blazer 42R in great shape









Lagerfeld Wool Dual vent 42 Long Houndstooth/Plaid blazer









Zegna ~soft~ 100% silk hand-finished blazer with patch pockets in fantastic condition.











And a POLO Ralph Lauren Hand-finished, Made in the USA Wool flannel suit with pleats and cuffs. About a 42R 43x31


Plus knit silk Talbott and Faconnable ties and a few silk printed Aquacutum ties, as well as some Faconnable, Brooks Brothers, Thomas Pink, and Zegna shirts, and a nice wool made-in-Scotland Paul Stuart crewncxk sweater.

This is my first "finds" post. I've just gotten into thrifting, and I'm already totally hooked.


*Edited to add spoilers correctly.

Sidenote: do any of the former regulars still post here at all?

It's awesome to see some continuity from the early days of this thread. I am glad you are still around...

I wonder if j, the guy who started it all with post #1, the Creator of the greatest Style Forum thread of all time, is still around?

That is awesome! I always wonder when there's a bunch of similar sizes whether it's all from the same person, especially three Brionis...

All I found was a cashmere Canali sport coat this weekend...

Well I'm late and my post won't be as good but here are my ties from today. Still sorting out the clothing/shoes. Highlights are some Brioni suits in staple colors (navy, charcoal) and a few other things like HFs and Canalis. Some Ferragamo loafers, Bally shoes, etc.

Ties:

Dunhill, Dunhill, Aquascutum, Aquascutum, BB Made in Italy (Any info on this tag or is it just another BB?)



Ben Silver, Ben Silver, RT 7 Fold, Zegna, Zegna, Zegna




Now a few questions. Still new and learning so hopefully I made the right choices.


Is this Blackwatch?




Is this a thing?





Are 7 folds always worth a pick up? This is Daniel De Fassin, some china made tie which I see tons of. But this was a 7 fold so I went for it.



Is this the correct Faconnable? Handmade in France.







I have few other PRL ties I'm keeping. These ties are available if anyones interested.

Awesome! Congrats! The rest of your haul was great, too! Shout out all of you guys today really, there have been several awesome posts. I'm heading out on a largish all day trip tomorrow, so we'll see if I come back with anything.
