Finally jumped on the Rising Sun Co. 50% off sale. Coped these. Been looking for a pair of nice khaki-ish colored jeans for a while, now. On a side note, dude, why are there so many jeans maker make their straight cut jeans with thin thighs?!

These do say reliable so I'm expecting at least 20 years of wear.

Found some cool things today. These two were my favorites.

Canali suit. N/A

Vintage Osh Kosh B'Gosh denim chore coat. Can anyone figure out how old this is from the union label? I'm guessing 40's or 50's. Guy replaced the cuff buttons with cool vintage US Army buttons. Great patina. I'd wear this a lot if it were my size. Sadly it's too small and really on the smaller side. Chest measures 20" and sleeves measure 20 1/2"

Here are most of the pickups for yesterday and today. Pretty interesting stuff, even though I'm probably taking some risks on being able to flip some of it in Europe. But hey, whatever, it's worth trying.

Tie pickups from yesterday: Dolcepunta (yay!), Vineyard Vines, Vintage PRL and super nice vintage Brooks Brothers, english hand blocked fabric.

Today's ties, some misc fodder: Random made in Italy, but funky pattern, rooster and fan or whatever it could be, U.S. made ancient madder, RT BoC, Vestimenta, Venanzi.

Vineyard Vines x 2

Paul Stuart x4, unknown, made in Italy, made in US and made in England (Drake's). Sadly found a really tiny snag on the Drake's one.

Hermes

Funky prints from Brooks Brothers and Cordings: Leaves, Horsies, bears and something and ducks and paisley pattern.

Vintage Daks any good? 100% cash, if that helps. Some minor snags and small stuff, but couldn't leave it.

How about some Norman Hilton? It's totally ****. Some staining on the lining, but it's not that bad.

Personal pickups, US-made J Crew cotton for summer and Samuelsohn navy blazer. Happy about both of em.

Pure win, that one...

Oxxford pants, same store, different donor. No jackets

Solemare for maus Hoffman 100% silk corduroy. Anyone recognize the tag?

FYI, Oxxford pants with the actual Oxxford label on the waistband are odd trousers so they were never part of a suit.

Aw man. I wish @Nataku hadn't told you about that.

PS: Your lobbs are doing better than I though. Honestly, you should accept international buyers even if you use the annoying ebay shipping option for the auction. You have tiny feet guys from china salivating over those shoes!

Yea I thought about doing international but I've hears horror stories about shoes disappearing or being confiscated at customs so I'd rather just take less money than lose the money and the shoes. I sold one pair of Ralph lauren shoes to someone overseas and they never made it there

I think you're off the hook if you use ebay's shipping service. I think it's overpriced and stupid, but for certain items...

Etsy's trying to go public.
