The official thrift/discount store bragging thread - Page 3048

Had to drive into a rural area today to see a client, stopped at their Goodwill expecting nothing but Dockers shoes and Stafford Shirts, actually found some decent enough stuff (and by the way, I both hate and love that this forum got me thinking about whether or not some bumblef*ck town a meeting brings me to has a Goodwill! So thanks, I think!)...

 

Crazy Looking Etro Shirt (First for me) N/A for now

 

CC Filson XXL - Available 

 

 

Burberry London - N/A

 

I think this is pretty old...Brooks Brothers Brooksuede 3 roll 2 - 22" p2p, 24" shoulder to cuff, 17.5" shoulders - available 

 

 

Haven't seen these before, vintage Allen Edmonds double zip York boots...quick eBay search shows no completed listings, but a couple listed for quite a bit. I love them, but they are 10C and I am a 13, so no way I can make them work...Available

 

 

I think you are mistaken on the second HF. Hickey Freeman Collection is the mainline stuff. Full canvas, etc.

 

I stopped in at an independent thrift today that I hadn't been to in months. It was like nothing had changed.

Ok bros, you have been wowing me with stuff lately. i won't have my last dallas haul in till a bit over a week from now... post something incredible so I can salivate.

PS/edit for the love of GOD someone please thrift some solid color ties of decent quality or better and get at me!

I clumped around Valu Village today for about half an hour in some 12C Allen Edmonds Ashton-Orthotic Split-Toe Lace-Up Oxfords that were marked 10 bucks. I tried to convince myself that my size 10 feet didn't look like Bozo feet. The right heel on the Vibram sole was worn more than I felt comfortable wearing and the sides of the soles looked like scaly monster skin.

I left them. Some other guy who was eying them on me jumped on them. I like it when tough decisions are made for me. They were at least an inch too long for me. What was I thinking?



Also found a woman's Tissot watch for $15 but I couldn't verify that it worked. I need stronger reading glasses!

It was cold this morning: 9 degrees C (48 F for you Americans) so it was a great day for tweedy.
Thrift pic, all thrifted:
Blue herringbone HT - Eaton's (now-defunct Canadian national department store)
Izod tattersall button down
Charvet PS (form trade with Spoo)
Canvas pants - bought new at Top Man 2 years ago in London


And then this evening, for those of you who are hankering for some tweed:
Samuelsohn, green herringbone tweed, tagged 44L
Nice colours going on in here...
Available.

I hear you! I hate getting old.

It's a lesson learned. I'm buying a very strong pair to keep with me for just that reason.

So...any watch people here?

I'm looking to see what the woman's Tissot was that I was looking at. It looked a lot like this but it had a date indicator, oddly located at 6 o'clock instead of 3 o'clock.



Any clue? I think I'll go back for it in the morning.

Jacket and tie are real, but sort of meh in $ value. Jacket = 35-50 ebaybux tie maybe 16 ebaybux.

recent scores + a pair of BB tan wide wale cords






is this one a fake?

^^^^ are you serious? I'm quite sure they're all real, because none of them are worth a shit, sorry bro. (referring to dubc, not bytor) To Dig, BUY THE TISSOT!! Tissot is a decent watch, and regardless of model etc. it is surely worth more than $15. As a matter of fact, ill give you $30 for it. :)
