put some regular shoes on and i like it, the rolled up exposed sockless look is pretty contrived/bloggish, rest of the outfit is appropriate though.

 

Dior/Thom Brown stuff is mind-blowing, well done boys.

Any New Yorkers here? I have absolutely no idea of where to go thrifting, or even what to really look for, most of the items I buy are fresh off the rack. Would love to find some gems and I know they're out there.

Isn't that what we all say every time we enter a store?

Thrifting in NY is a waste of time in my experience. Great stuff but they know how to charge. I have seen used shirts for $150 and they were in terrible condition.

I have had tons of success in the suburbs, but it takes patience and the competition with other flippers is fierce.

This is very likely true. Never had the time to try though.

You can tell by the diagonal stitching only at the corners.  The real Dior has stitching all the way around the label...

Just kidding.  That's a ridiculous find man.
