Is women's Patagonia worth scooping up for true thrift?

That's a "better sweater". Easy $50+. I have a men's better sweater vest up in that same color and it's almost at $70.

Any hockey sweater/jersey experts out there? Just picked a Toews Canada 2010 Olympics jersey with a fight strap. How do I tell if this was actually issued to him?

Thanks I'll pick it up. This is the first Hermes tie I've ever seen. Construction looks pretty good. Real or fake?

I had to google a description of the loop but there was no picture. is this what you mean? I'm beyond excited right now lol

what i've noticed with hermes is the silk should feel light but airtight and very very smooth, almost like a deflated balloon. there's also a peculiar way the tipping is constructed. looks pretty real from here tho!

That feeling when you reunite a super 170s Brioni orphan only to find the pants have a slight drip on them :/

Oh well. Catch and release.

Two step process:smell it and inspect for blood splatter
