You'll definitely have PMs, but on the off chance you don't, pick it up anyway.

I will if someone wants it, I am not in this for the cheese and it is too big for me.

Four new-old-stock Paul Stuart shirts in my size. One club collar, one button down, two point collars.

Anyone care to guess the vintage? They were each originally priced $32.

The front one lackin Chicago & Tokyo appears to be from before the mid-1990s or so:  http://www.nytimes.com/1990/06/01/business/company-news-paul-stuart-to-expand-in-asia-mainly-in-japan.html.

The interior lining- is it supposed to be soft? This isn't as soft as I'd expect,
Though it looks like there might be a removable liner that's missing. Help!


Definitely a legit tag. The lining on my Beaufort is a soft tweed woven wool, so not exactly soft, but warm. There's a couple different kinds of zip-out liners, one that's just a shearling-looking liner and one that's a polarquilt quilted vest like I got from someone here. Best outerwear out there for the money, IMO.

Little down time....pulled another bag from the trunk....let's see what we have today....

Tradly sportcoats galore!


Freedberg of Boston 3/2 44R (available)



Vintage 2 button wool blazer....for a large 38R or a small 40R. I hate to make this available as I so desperately want this to fit me but it has just too much waist suppression for me to squeeze in it.

....and I got pants!

A couple for the bigger guys....


NWT Barbour cords 40 x 37.5 unfinished (claimed)


RRL Jeans 40 x 31 (available)


Orvis US Made Cords with suede 32 x 31

and these....which given the holiday season I just couldn't let sit there...thanks for donating your pants santa.

Vintage Woolrich red winter lined flannel wool pants 34 x 27???? Yikes. Two and a half inches of extra material.

This is ironic, but in my short time in a store yesterday, I left a shearling-looking Barbour liner vest. When I saw it, I dashed through the store looking for the coat, but it was nowhere to be found. If you end up picking this coat up, let me know if you want me to go back and check the size for you. I'd be happy to proxy it if you wanted. It was roughly €7.

Good to know. I have only ever found a tie from the Sartoriale line. It is really nice and definitely better than the grupo forall stuff, like you said.

I'll definitely grab some pics, no matter what it is as now I'm curious. I'm 99% sure it will turn out to be nothing but a huge disappointment, but there's always a hope. You reminded me that i have a couple of phone numbers of guys here in order to message pictures of stuff I find for them. I have an iPhone, so as long as it's on iMessage, they're free biggrin.gif

Catside I would get the Zegna Couture jacket repaired if possible. Zegna Couture from relatively recent label is pretty much fairy dust man. German Sheppard bite - do not like the sound of it. At least the jacket is dark, maybe a reweaver could mend and leave virtually no trace?
