speaking of buying watches I still have that fake lady cartier, any takers? would make an excellent and cheap gift for a clueless wife/girlfriends 

also to keep this post not a complete self promotion I bought this guess watch at goodwill for my mom today as a present, it needs a new battery and strap but it's the thought that counts right... 

on a side note I am still confused about goodwills standard pricing, at one store in my area ties are $2.99 and at another they are $5.99?!

If you like them enough to wear them that is the value. Enjoy!

Nothing super awesome worth posting, but here are several of my recent finds.

Allen Edmonds Sanford in Walnut. These were awesome because they were brand new, my size, and because I did not find them, my GF did on a whim. Her exact response "These were so ugly I knew you would like them" (she has since recanted the ugly statement though) (N/A)

Kind of cool womens burberry blazer because of the patch (n/a)

PRL seersucker w/ working cuffs (n/a)

Hickey Freeman Collection 100% Silk Jacket 46R

Cool Faconnable Jacket

Hugo 100% silk for the 'bay

Interesting Versace V2 one button in red

Versace Pants

First pair of Nettletons, but nothing special

Ben Sherman that is so hideous I had to pick it up

Cool Barbour

Pretty cool Hickey Freeman Cord shirt, but imperfection

Ties have been so dry lately. Can anyone authenticate the Charvet (my first, but with a small blemish) or the Lanvin (also a first)

Some Polo Ties (JP, you said you wanted solid, right?) The green tie has to be about boys size (Brian, you do boy's ties??)

Picked up these Zanella's because such a thing exists. Triple pleated and the design is just insane. Must see zoom in of pattern to appreciate...

Got this but I am 60% sure that it is fake. Got it for nothing though and it's my size so I couldn't leave it behind. The feel is right, but the label just seems off to me (cashmere in Hong Kong??? and the second label not being separated...). Anyone able to authenticate, or crush my dreams? (N/A)

Funny story behind this. My GF's brother is traveling in Maine and was literally about to buy one of these retail. I find this an hour later at a GW. Crazy timing. (N/A)

Zegna 17.5

Another Zegna

And, another first for me. RLPL. My size but the sleeves are short (Large but sleeves about 33)

The Hermes expires Sunday night.  There are some other good ones on there, but I am still developing my eye.

 

 

How did I do?

nobody 'round here picks up chaps.

As for the chaps, not worth picking up unless it's something you're using for yourself. The old made in USA stuff is actually decent enough, but nothing with a chaps name is gonna re-sell.

Thanks to you both.  I added basic measurements...I will take more when I get a chance this weekend.  

Bummer about the Chaps, I have a thrifted Chaps Sportcoat that fits me very well, and thought it was regarded a little higher.  

I may be able to make the HF suit work, however.  I don't know if they can get the additional 4" in length that I need in the pants.  It looks like 3" or under to let out...if less than four, it is available.  

All others available....even the Chaps.

Absolutely love the above items! The V2 looks a bit wine color. That is so bad ass! I think another SFer picked up the same Burberry women's jacket...I swear I've seen the same one posted on here. I'm not an expert on Charvet but I have 2 now and the tags look pretty consistent. Does it say "Made in France" in a small tag? Regarding the Polo, I've seen plenty of those made in HK and the tag looks pretty consistent. Looks good to me. OMG!!!!! That Burberry London is epic!!! Does the size translates to about a US 40 Long?
