Dan, were those Cinci finds?!!?

Yup. Orphans unfortunately, will be camped out at that store. Got another Kiton, and some Patrick Hellmans as well. Not pictured, some decent Brooks Brothers (NWT Madison suit, Estrato fabric) 6 pairs AE, other stuff... All blurred together. Single best stop I've ever had, I think.

First off thanks for the info.

Secondly if you are saying that asking questions will wear thin, this clearly isnt a place for learning.

You're asking questions that have been asked time and time again. You haven't asked anything new yet.

Left everything tonight. Some notables that I catch and release

A gorgeous half canvases jacket by "Sand". Unfortunately the sleeve had too much wear.
A pair of naked and famous, size 32 weird guy but the previous owner ripped the heck out of the bottom. I guess they could be rehemmed but I didn't feel like it.

A Patagonia nylon jacket. Left it because the lining didn't look great plus I still am very ignorant on the brand.

A psycho bunny sweater. I see this brand posted a lot on this thread. Looked alright, I just didn't feel like lining up for one item.

Went kitten hunting today. No luck but I did bag a couple of cannolis:

Nothing earth shattering today but a couple decent things found..

Htweed

Ox personal use

Pend with no damage always surprises me as I expect to find a hole somewhere on it

@Oolong
Well looks like I stopped at the wrong store ha! Those canali suits sure make these jackets seem much less exciting. Well played man.

They can get skeety at times, but I'm a fan of Sand Copenhagen. Most of it is too narrow in the shoulder for me, but I like a lot of their styles. Don't see it too much in thrifts, too bad about the wear.

wield it like a cudgel.

This is going to be the name of my first album.

We really should put Hans's helpful post and links to Org's article and similar beginner-friendly articles at the beginning of this thread.

Plus maybe links to related threads (ID this maker, eBay discussion, etc.)

send me the links in PM and I can edit them in.

blackwatch pendleton with no holes over a canali any day in my book.

I found a gorgeous shirt by Sand new with tags. Looked really nice, but was not popular ove at that place it went.

Thanks. I wear suits everyday while meeting with clients so suits are my favorite find. This guy will likely just head out to snoogz to work his magic with it. Still fun but not quite as exciting as adding something to my daily wardrobe. Thanks again though man!

What is the name of your band going to be? The Loving Spoo-ful or perhaps The Spoo Edition.
