The official thrift/discount store bragging thread

[IRKSM]

just got called for an interview at prada

 

[guyver00]



This weekends shoe haul.

Top L-R: Santoni, Magnanni, AE Montgomery
Bottom L-R: Alfred Sargent for BB Peal&Co, Hanover shell, Alden shell LHS
The Magnannis and the AEs have been worn fewer than a handful of times. The rest are in 8-9/10 condition.
Most of these were at a local thrifts annual big event. I also picked up three Oxxford jackets, including my grail item. Or, what I thought to be my grail item. Turns out an Oxxford navy blue hopsack blazer in 48L is too long for me. So I've now adjusted my grail item to an Oxxford navy blue hopsack blazer in 48R. Also got a near new (may never have been worn) Brooks Brothers trench coat, ties by Battistoni, Hilditch&Keys and Brioni and some BB tweed 3/2 sacks for the guys on TOF.

I suddenly have the urge to burnish some of my shoes after seeing the Magnanni...nice haul!

Wow, I didn't even know I wanted those Magnanni penny loafers until just now....

Unfortunately, you'll have to be Big Foot to wear them. They are 14s.

PTO just posted this bout BArbour, anyone near Milford NH.
http://putthison.com/tagged/Barbour

If anyone is going to this PM me please.

Had an OK day yesterday;
Dunn & co. 40R

Spoiler

Glen plaid Canali DB 42R with pants

Samuelsohn Linen & wool soft shouldered jacket 44R (available)

Orphaned Canali 42R that would work as an odd jacket (available)

Corneliani in great shape aside from some skeety looking spots on the front

Spoiler

passed on another DB Corneliani that I didn't think would work on its own. This store is out of my normal rotation and i only stopped in because i was passing it, but I have someone scouring it for the next two weeks to see if any of the missing pants turn up. If someone finds some lonely Corneliani tux pants in 34, you know who to call.

Naw, that's a good price for home baked goodness! If she figures it out and is up to the task, let me know.

I would def be in for a batch of cookies.

I'll gauge whether she's up for it and let you all know!

The question is, does this give your wife bonus points in the Great Cookie War?
"I'm so sorry I don't have as many cookies this year. Some of my internationally famous cookies were sent to the men who begged for them...."

HandserHund, I'm so sorry for what I have started

Hahaha, good point! VLSI, no worries, I suppose I brought it on myself

ouch although yes that is probably accurate especially where I live in suburbia 

 I should have just checked eBay sorry guys I was just really excited I have never handled either brand before and I was in the area still and wanted feedback, I think I come across as kind of an asshole in this thread and I apologize Internet forum me is different than real me.  in other news I applied to work at the brunello cucinelli outlet by my house if I get hired there will be proxies with employee discounts for everyone!!! 

No worries, just busting your balls!

Congrats on the interview and good luck!

Speaking of Cucinelli, I finally got some pictures of my only Cucinelli find a couple of weeks ago. They seem to be NWOT. Are these considered cargo pants? They have one weird angled pocket on the leg.
