Who had that question about Pal Zileri the other day -- that weird label and lining? I went looking for it but couldn't find it. Reason I ask is: I came across a very similar (possibly the same?) jacket today. Navy SC, unvented, loro piana cashmere. Passed, but thinking it was a mistake.


I had a PZ question a good bit ago and the label was Abito Privato.  It was concluded to be their MTM line. I would probably have picked it up.

Huntington Beach California- Not the best place to thrift. Though that said, if you ever need a wetsuit, one of the GW's I went to had about 20.

A bomb jacket by Silvio's of Beverly Hills. The fabric is FAWESOME. Handled Brioni's Super 150's, Zegna 15milmil 15, easily beats it. On par with 180's I'm saying. 38



Star Artoili shoes.
Warning: Spoiler! (Click to show)



Etro jacket. Bomb lining, wish it was my size. EU54



Gilded Age x Uniqlo jacket



2 x Paul Smith cardigan M

Yeah, I gave up on Huntington Beach. Been there a handful of times and had awful luck thrifting. There was a Goodwill in Santa Ana off Fairview St, if I remember correctly, that we've hit a couple times out our way out there that was pretty good to me a couple times.

I don't think it's anything. Just a funny pendleton ripoff. Was a first for me, so I got a laugh out of it.

A nice seersucker suit (i.e., flat front, double vent) is on my wish list.

Polo will often use the same exact fabrics for unintentional "suit separates' within the same season.
I've never seen it with Corneliani, but have seen it quite a bit on their cheaper imported pants and jackets.

I have a baby blue oxford cloth suit I got this way.

I have, and nope. Still the exact same bunch of ties sitting there, maybe a few less. Keep thinking I'll hit shoe gold but it hasn't happened yet. There have been a few nice Zanella shirts recently, but nothing worth picking up.

 

I've mentioned this little thrifting hobby of mine to my parents (especially after finding my dad a couple shirts). Also mentioned that it's difficult trying to get clothes to look nice for pictures without a mannequin. To my surprise, an early birthday present from them! Adjustable height too, though I may just mount it to one of my light stands since they're more sturdy.

 

You know, I did find an older 100% cashmere sportcoat (Nordstrom brand) in my size in HB. Sleeves may have been a bit too short, but it felt like there might be 4 inches extra inside. Left it because it was a funky hunter green. Might just have to go back for it tomorrow, it was pretty damn clean for its age.
