Hey guys,
I've been having to ease my way out of the thrift game - work is picking up, and we just moved to a newer, smaller apartment which means I no longer have a closet dedicated to thrifting adventures. Anyhoo, trying to cut down my closet. The first batch of stuff I'm taking to Buffalo Exchange unless someone here wants the stuff, the second batch is going on eBay or grailed, but as always I would prefer to deal with known thrift thread contributors than that nonsense, so let me know if anything looks good. Can supply more photos or measurements as you need them.

If you want more than one thing, we can make deals folks.

Lot 1
Wolverine 1000k boots. Got these from the STP dump a while back. Had toe taps installed. Uppers are beat up but no issues. Soles are starting to get a bit soft so a resole will be on the cards eventually. Would keep if I had the space but I've got way too many pairs of brown boots. Asking for $45 shipped in the US. Size 8.5

Long shot, but does anybody have a black or charcoal suit for a seven year old?

We have to attend a burial service on Saturday, and if I can I'd like to have my son where a suit.

He's relatively average height/build, about 4'3" tall and 60 lbs.

Polo belt tagged 34. NOT ALLIGATOR, apparently. :foo:

Trade me something or grab it for cost, which would be like, $23 shipped, depressingly enough.

Being all of the outdoor gear I've been seeing lately someone might be able to help.

In need of a new sleeping bag. I'm still rocking the one from the Boy Scout days and its not going to cut a multi day white water rafting trip that I've got mid-October. Don't care vintage or new, would prefer a recognizable name (maybe marmot, mountain hardwear, NF, etc - typically I'm not as concerned with brands but I've had negative experience with no name outdoor gear, never stands up to the wear). Something easily packable is a huge plus.

Thanks!

Go to a military surplus store and buy a modular sleep system. It has a gortex bivy and it's remarkably waterproof. There's 2 inserts, black for warmth and green for warmer days, or stack for impossible warmth. I've used it in 0 degrees and snow, torrential downpours in an open drop zone, and summer months in the field. I doubt you'll find a more complete package for under $100.

It also is easily packed as it comes with a special bag that has straps for further compacting it.

This may be a case for the Ragged Trouser Philanthropist. @Cleav ? I have a young friend who just got his first business job but has no business wardrobe whatsoever aside from a cheap wool and polyester mix suit he purchased for the interview (they still hired him). I am trying to help him find the very basics (a charcoal or navy suit, a navy blazer, a few white and powder blue dress shirts, a pair of medium grey wool trousers, maybe a pair of tan wool or cotton trousers) for as cheap as possible. Here are his sizes. Please PM. He doesn't need anything elaborate.

Jacket 42S (I measured his current suit that had been tailored)
Shoulders 19.5
Pit to Pit 22
Sleeves 24
Waist 24
BOC 30/31

Pants 38/27 (inseam can always be shortened)

Dress shirt 16 32/33
