The official thrift/discount store bragging thread - Page 3295

I recently sold the same shirt I thrifted some time ago. I think it did rather well on eBay....$36 before shipping.

 

I usually pass on BB shirts that don't fit me since they don't flip well but picked up that shirt since i like bright flashy objects. 

I want to give a big shout-out to Patrologia - just got some great Florsheim shell gunboats in the mail.  Fast shipping and I can't wait to wear them! 

Got some mediocre stuff. Will post in 30 mins.

It's been a while since I've had what I can confidently call a haul. Which is why tonight was so awesome. What's more, almost all of this came from one place, about 20 minutes before the store closed for the night. I saw a pretty well dressed guy flipping through the suits with a few already in his hands, so I hopped to it. Here's what I came up with...

 

Perfect for fall Samuelsohn wool/cashmere sport coat. N/A

 

What's that, you say? You like the checks, but you're a 36R? Here's a Nervesa tweed-y sport coat, AVAILABLE.

Don't know much about Nervesa, other than that it's fully canvassed, made in Italy and included in PTO's thrifting brands guide.

 

Now then...

(That's a burned retina, and I submit it should be a Grendel signal)

 

I remember Grendel saying something about wanting a fall checked sport coat. Maybe this one will work?

 

Rinaldo Raspini made by Corneliani, fully canvassed, 54R, AVAILABLE.

What's this? Super soft? Made for a man much more *ahem* full-figured than I? Must be an Oxxford MTM, approximately 44-46R, AVAILALBE.

Wait a minute. Oxxford?! In Canada?

 

 

Now back to the show. Baldessarini charcoal Super 150s suit. N/A pending a verdict from my tailor

 

It's raining Baldessarini here. This one is about a 40R. Probably going to the 'bay, unless someone here has a 40-42L suit of similar quality they want to trade.

 

Both of these are post-Hugo Boss (there was one other with 'Hugo Boss' on the label... it was marked up to $100, go figure). The tag is an older Caruso one, right? Or something else?

 

And lastly, not thrifted, but eBayed for well below average eBay cost, a Comme Des Garcons SHIRT with a zipper front. Love it. N/A

 

 

 

Oh, and that other well-dressed guy? Didn't see any suits with him when he was at the cash... but I did find three Zara suits left on the changeroom rack, all marked up to $70. Had to restrain myself from saying to him, "Good pass."

HAH! Beat you by a few minutes!

I see this and I think "oh, gee, only Kiton sportcoats instead of full cashmere suits and Hermes overcoats?"

Great stuff guys

Spoo - get us a pic of those shooz

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

No, no, you have that all wrong. It was a warning not to post lest your haul be totally overlooked

BIG shout outs to troika for hooking me up with a sick wit-it Brioni SC and a Bur shirt! Sorry, no pics. Too lazy...He's a super nice guy. If you get the chance to hang out with him, do it for your own good!

 

Interesting a days. Picked up a Brioni SC with MOP and working cuffs but unvented! Sorry, no pics. Too lazy...

 

Ran into 3 Henry Poole uhhhh, over coats? NOPE! They were size at least 60!!! 2 orphans plus 1 tux. All 3 got all the bells and whistles. The birdseye orphan was only $6. Tux was $45. The blue orphan was $45. It was also a 1/2 off day. Decided to pass...This was the 3rd time I've ran into stuff from the Rows.

 

 

Oh my, what big Pooles you have!!! (Click to show)

I was very disappointed...That is until I peaked into the breast pocket and found this!

Hmmm, what's this? (Click to show)

I was happy again! Also, I left with this.

 

So soft! (Click to show)

 

 

Shout outs to JP for convincing me going back to pick up another SC that was tailored from the Row.

Hogg Sons & J B Johnstone with Rop-a-dope shoulders, working cuffs, and it's my size but needs some tailoring.

 

Feels very durable! (Click to show)

Today and Monday:

Three pairs of pants, from left to right; Zanella (double-pleated, size 34), Zegna (size 34), Brooks Brothers NWT (size 32)


The BB pants are what I'm most excited about this week, because they're NWT but the tags look like they're from the 80s or so.



Labels for the other pants: Warning: Spoiler! (Click to show)
Ties: Paul Smith, BB, BB (BB are again NWT, but factory store tags)


AE Burton, 12D


Zegna quarter-zip polo, medium
