Bro, Momos are so rare in a thrift, here. I've yet to come across a pair. Did he thrifted those? If so, those should fetch a nice price as they have a big following.

First off, why would Momotaros fetch a high price from thrift when you can go to multiple stores online to get them at cost. Secondly I don't know what your point is, that I wasn't aware that in 2011 they came out with a 20oz jean that they planned to make part of mainline production but quickly went defunct and unheard from again? WOOPS.

Uhhh, I'm pretty sure the cheapest Momos at cost at online is around $140. If you buy those states side, it would be much more. I mean at the end, isn't what all of us flippers are doing like buying Momos at the thrift for $10 and flipping it for $100 to $150? $90 profit, I'll be on that all day. ****, if I ever find those 20oz. I'll rock them all day.

My apologies, our paths got cross, for some reason I was thinking that you were saying they were rare enough that you could get a much higher price for them then what they retail for if you found them at a thrift spot and resold them, not just normal mark up, which is still good, I just didn't catcha ya for a minute.

Wow, now I need a plaid suit lol Great find!



I believe it's safe to say, that you are making a wise decision. That suits gorgeous and is worthy of being the first keeper.



Great looking Canali Suited.


Thanks, guys. I didn't think it was going to work for me because it's a 40 Short and I wear a 42R, but the length is 30" and the shoulders are 18.75 - 19. In the past I've come close on a few suits but something was always off (recent label suits are pretty rare around here).

No apologies needed. I think Momos are a bit on the gimmicky side. I mean, they did have a pair that's hand loomed and went for like north of $30,000. Yerrrr, they are just jeans at the end of the day. I think the denim especially the selvedge game is hyped up. Its time to beat the hype beast out of our heads. That's ok, I'll be rock'n my $45 NWT Sauce Zhan organic cotton, natural dyed indigo selvedge!

Some interesting finds from the past few days...

Finamore, pop!



Bill's Khakis




Paul & Shark



One for @Nataku . Did you know Kelty made shirts back in the day? Label is from the late 60's as far as I can tell)




Any Marines out there? Marine Tartan LL Bean shirt




Vintage Jantzen sport shirt (1970's)



And last, but definitely not least...

Cruising through the coats yesterday, my hands thought this was an Arc'teryx jacket when I felt it.





Oh, hey there! I'll take a Rapha Transfer jacket! Pop!
