Hi folks, here are a couple of finds from my weekend trip.

Pal Zileri jacket in dark navy with silver pindot like pattern (52 tagged):

Zegna shirt (17.5 tagged):

Foggia tie in an interesting copper/black pattern. Depending on the direction you look at it, the colour changes - i forget the correct term for it. Not that the above photographs are great quality, but this is hard to capture.

I am willing to trade the shirt/jacket for something in my size (15.5, 38 jacket) if anyone is keen.

Daniel Cremieux limited edition 6 fold. Don’t know much about this designer. Made in Italy. Keeper since I only have about 2 other 6 folds.

Cremieux is a Paris-based designer who in 1999 set up a partnership with Dillard's as an upscale house brand, similiar to Faconnable and Nordstrom. Their Italian made ties are very nice. Most of there signature line is along the same quality as US made PRL.

Non clothing orphan find:

Was in the local GW and saw this:

A like new Cusinart electric knife without the blades, put back down, pretty useless with out blades.

Saw a big knife block with knives, nothing special, then looked in the bin of knives and found these:

Orphan reunited, $7.99.......Did look online and there is another set of blades for bread and a storage board, will go back today.

Also a rather heavy long (10") brass shoe horn:

Sometimes it's pretty amazing what mundane things you can pick up on the cheap, last week, nice coach leather belt, like new Levi's wide brown belt, not really brag worthy, but for $3.

This morning a coworker received his new HP computer, didn't have a keyboard and needed a USB keyboard, he bemoaned having to buy a new keyboard when he has many older ones, told him to go to the GW about a mile away, comes back with a like new HP USB keyboard, $3.99.

That's because he's DM7. He eats dirt and shits gold.

I've found a temp. suppression. It's called thrifting!!! Found some stuff. Popped my Chipp cherry and found a few PS shirts that fit me perfectly! Oh yeah, and my first Barbour. Passed on a bunch of stuff I never thought I would of pass...Brioni pants, PZ jacket, and a Jil Sander shirt. That thing was so soft.

Stopped by a shop nearby that is a huge miss about 90% of the time. This was not one of those times.

Armani

Armani

Zegna

Oxxford (brown, not gray)

And the closer...

Left about 6 Armanis (3 of the newer label, 3 of the older "Le Collezioni" label), and one other Oxxford due to a bit of datedness (unvented, etc.). If anyone is a 42L and interested I can go back and see if anything is left.

Also, at another store picked up this BB Charcoal Pinstripe Suit (41L)

And this NWT Waxed Canvas J Crew Messenger:

Happy hunting, boys.
