The official thrift/discount store bragging thread - Page 2673

Nice! I picked up a Coleman camping stove today. I "borrowed" the exact same one from my parents years ago and lost it at some point, glad to finally have a replacement.

That Varvatos is pretty sweet. Cotton?

isn't that just JV mainline? i've never seen a runway piece from them, i've only heard of JV mainline and the JV * USA diffusion line.

i know horse's ass found a similar coat a few months back, maybe he knows about the maker.

that said, that is a sweet sweet coat.

Mainline = "Runway" LOL Does Varvatos even do a runway show..... I'll shoot Mr. Ass a PM and see if he has more info. This thing is pretty freaking trendy with no breast pocket and the lower front pockets are still shown shut.  Thanks.

 

 

No internal tag so don't know the material. It feels like a cotton blend, but might be 100% cotton. I am bad with being able to tell by feel (unless its cashmere ).

BP, size on the Varvatos?

No tag, but calling it around a 40L???? A tad longer then a R?

 

Chest (armpit to armpit on back): 21.5"
Shoulder (seam to seam on back): 18.75"
Arm (shoulder seam to end of arm): 25.5"
Overall Length (bottom of collar to hem): 31.5"

Allen Edmonds shell cordovan 'Leeds. 10.5D

 

 

I wish these were my size. They are available for anyone who wants them. PM me.

 

Look like shells to me and match up with the sometimes correct list & they have the combo heel. I've been wanting a pair of those exact shoes.... in my size

 

PS - I should read besides just looking at pictures...you said "shell" right in the top

@Brian: I thought I read somewhere that Lardini made jackets for the mainline collection at some point, however, I could be talking out of my ass.

Re earlier PSA the shirts are almost all standard fit, and the zanellas. et all are almost all pleated. c'mon guys, I'm nice but im not.not drowning in unicorns where.I can be slinging.them. en masse for ~5 a pop. I'm.glad.there was a healthy response. probablyshould've waited awhile to post it. I'm going to be out.of town the next to days. when I return I'm going to type up a.master list of. everything that is available
lable and send.to.everyone who messaged me.

@SteveKane - nice pickup, welcome to the forum.

 

Thrifting is weird sometimes. I was just thinking this morning that I've never seen a Charvet shirt in the wild. This afternoon I stumbled upon 5 of them, unfortunately they were all too small for me (15 neck), french cuffed (I'm trying to limit myself here) and $35 each, so I passed.  Must have been DM7s leftovers. If anyone in LA is interested I can let you know where they are at.

No one's going to mention the Giant Albino Gorilla in the corner?  

BrianP, what would the size on that sexy Jarvis & Hamilton be? /fingerscrossed

Ehm.

I did not thrift this, but it was thrifted..... Ended up being tooo small, as I am 99% sure it is a womens....   Any help to confirm. I say womens due to the way it buttons, the tiny tiny size (no vent, 4 buttons, fit) and also I think it says "Mrs" on the name tag... Poole did womens blazers also, right?
