Found a nice bike jersey today that begs a couple of questions... First, how do you search for this online? Second, would this be ironic listing?

I found a couple odd balls while out and about today:

Lanvin Dress Shirt with (I think?) Pearl buttons? They feel cold to the touch and gritty to the teeth. I am not sure how else to test, it's just so weird. Made in Italy tagged sz 42. Any info would be greatly appreciated.



Florsheim Imperial Dress Boots 9D:




Everything is available, if you so fancy!

For a true test of how good a shirt is you need to lick the collar, the saltier the better.

I just couldn't pull the trigger on these pants today, even though it's 20% off for seniors.


Flat front and they fit like a 31 or 32 (sized 46 euro) but the legs were far too 'relaxed' for my tastes. Inseam was probably around 32 as well. Made in Peru? If someone wants them, I can go back tomorrow (full price, sorry) and get them unless everyone yells at me for leaving them behind and wants me to consign with them. :happy:

ALSO...

I found a pair of Ralph Lauren Polo Country mocs for SWMBO that were only slightly down at the heels, which I usually leave behind. No pics since she grabbed them and put them on before I could even shoot some Lysol up inside them.

Here's a photo of the label I snagged off the web.

Is 'Polo Country' good stuff?

Dude, if you think this at all elevates your risk of exposure to something, next time you use a restroom - any restroom- google the phrase "fecal veneer".

Unless you are at a con because then little Asian girls cosplaying sailor moon will tell you how kawaii you are and give you a handie during the "mechanics of Pokemon battles" lecture

Ian, you ass. I got some good looks in the doctor's office waiting room earlier when I busted up after reading that.

I BEEN COPPIN GRAILS LEFT AND RIGHT AIN'T NOBODY ON MY LEVEL
I have been looking for johdpurs for a solid 2 years and ever since james jean (the style blogger not the artists) told me his are from the short lived banana republic monogram line I have had a couple saved searches trying to find some. finally I found some plus I talked the seller down from 85 to 60 and they appear to be unworn

now I only have 4 more things to cop before my wardrobe is more or else perfect/complete/endlessly versatile.
navy 3.25 extra length unlined navy grenadine
white common projects achilles (the ones I bought for a steal were grey

)
black cafe racer leather jacket

It's pretty hit or miss and seems to depend on some deep love of Ralph Lauren I don't have.

I forget what they were charging on these but they sold out.
