any Zegna Sport fans? this has a beautiful feel, micro-houndstooth pattern, and killer buttons. Large and available.

 

 

 

Seersucker anyone?left one of these behind, proxy available (they wanted $40). 42R if i remember correctly, and seemingly in good condition.

 

Brooks Bros Seersucker, Milano Fit

MAINY - I can help with shipping... whats up? PM if you like, but ask here if you can for public education...

40R and yeah! Is it the suit or the SC?

Is this real? I pass on dozens of these in a day.

IDK how that is real, but the size helps...even small for a 36
 

 

 

It had 2400+ views (not sure how many were after the auction ended though).

another chubby inducing find,listening to some Tammy Wynette paired with Polk A,damn sounds good.

 

 

 

It's the full suit, my friend. I'll make it back there Monday at the latest to check it out. PM me your usual measurements to make sure it's a fit.

 

 

 

Went on an all day spree with toscano_adottato today.  A few notables.  

 

First off, can I get some help authenticating this Stefano Ricci tie?  What threw me for a loop is the somewhat gaudy gold lettering in the name, and the fact that there's no content label at all.  Otherwise, it seems pretty good quality.  It's definitely printed silk, and the silk has some weight to it.  I didn't/wouldn't think Ricci ties are popular enough to be faked, but stranger things have happened.  Anyone feel free to chime in.

Shirts:  Recent HF, Zegna, Zegna.  All my size .  Had to leave 3-4 other similar recent Zegnas behind due to serious collar/pit stain action going on.  The striped one has a little bit that should come out with an Oxy, but the purple one is pretty much good to go.  

 

 

 

Hickey Freeman Bespoke jacket.  Don't think this is an orphan based on the jacket pattern and the buttons.  Might be wrong.

 

 

 

Oh, and this one that some of you guise may have heard of.  First time I've seen toscano get really excited about a find in awhile, haha.  I handed it off to him since it's his size.  

 

 

Insanely thick and large buttons.  Several were cracked though, but it's worth it to replace them on this bad boy.

So, I shipped something express to germany, and the tracking just says this: Addressee requests own pick-up - Item being held, addressee being notified.

It's been 4 days now... the buyer told me they got the item and are happy with it but I'm pissed because I paid a ton of money extra for express and have no proof of delivery. Have you ever had this happen? I guess I'm going to have to go to the PO and bitch about it...

Today

Harris Tweed. 42S

Hickey Freeman. 43L

Angelo Nardelli. 44R. Has cool metal buttons. Anyone know anything about this label?

Giorgio Armani. 38R

AE (9D), J&M (10D), Tods (9)


Corneliani. 16/41. Very cool detail pattern in the fabric. White contrast collar/french cuffs.

Also picked up a couple of shirts and wooden hangers (as you can see ).

That is a new one, certainly. Never heard of that before. Although, you can file a non receipt claim for the insurance provided by Express mail without proof of delivery. Thats an instant win. Just saying.

That Armani is actually kind of cool and in my size.

So, hit up an old haunt before coming back from vacation. My first time in a thrift store in years, felt good to be back

Came back with a few questions...

Awesome corduroy pants embroidered with ducks - construction is top notch, but the only label I see is the one below. Any clue? Damn shame these are too big on me, I love them.



Then, this great Gitman Bros. plaid short sleeved shirt in XXL:


Last, a gorgeous Brooks Brothers recent tweed jacket, but I never saw a comp label like this one - was it MTM?


Also a pair of articulated shoe trees by Johnston & Murphy, gold knobs, $4.99.

Everything is available (except the trees)

Wow!!
