Priceless!

& thank you.

Spoo? Yeah, not known for being a detail guy.

No finds this weekend, dudes. Helped a family member move on Saturday, kid duty and home repairs all day Sunday. Hope to play some hooky this week and hit a couple of more remote stores.

Great finds this weekend you guys!

Here are my two today, available:

Ermenegildo Zegna Gray Wool Overcoat 52

Not sure how recent or desirable this is but with 50% off thrift prices I figured it was worth the gamble. 70% Wool 30% Angora. Super thick, however I realized when I got home that is a 52 not european size, so pretty big. What do you guys think? Good pick up?

Beaver is a denser fur, and a bit more oily.
