The official SW&D thrift/discount store bragging thread - Page 9

Black (looks Navy from my terrible picture, but it's black) APC (made in France) Corduroy Jacket (M)

Here's the Filson shooz, size 11D (available). I put a coat of Obenauf's LP on there to even up some of the scuffs

Here's the Eastland Made in Maine I found a while back... they've become my favorite casual shooz

between those and the Quoddy's I found a while back I've done pretty well with SW&D shoes

Decided to hit up just one store yesterday while apartment hunting and I found these. I looked up Visvim and paint splatter, and a few pairs of theirs with a finish of that sort came up. This pair, however, was not one of them. Let me just say that, shy of the splatter, these are badass boots. Really nice construction and materials throughout.

Visvim Whymper size 10

Still can't believe I found these, though I suspect they had just been put out (the tags had yesterday's date on them). There was one other pair of Visvim there, some lightweight shoes, but they were pretty worn. Figured those probably weren't worth it. Also figure they probably aren't there anymore either...

Wings + Horns Polo

Plaid Barbour Sport Shirt (L)

RE yoox and deals (just saw this post) - I've picked up some really good stuff at yoox.  I got a pair of cashmere blend Helmut Lang pants there for $40, and they're my favorite pair of pants.  I've found a few other deals like that there, too, as well as ebay.  I guess if the criteria for this thread is 'under $20' they don't cut it, but don't a lot of the thrifting finds come from consignment shops and not thrift stores?

I found a mint size L yohji yamamoto grey rayon button up shirt. the smoked mop buttons are baller. its available if anyone is interested

Hi!  This is actually a cross post from The Official Thrift / Discount Store Bragging Thread.

Thanks!

The other thread was a bit intense, like if you were to post a picture of something not so great and brag worthy, or ask a "dumb" question about something, it seems like Mofos would reach through your monitor and sucker punch you in the nuts.
