kind of random story, if really VASS they are worth a couple hundred

It's worth "like $10" boxing[1].gif

Brag all you want, but do you get the hint this is the wrong place to ask how much something is worth???

How can you tell if it's really Vass? There's this engraving on the shoes.

The tag looks like a generic "Made in Italy" tag to me, so not Drake's. Does it say "Made in Italy" on the tag?

The mismatch between the label (BURBERRY LONDON) and the imprint on the back of the tip (Burberrys), along with the fake-looking label also suggests that the tie might not be authentic.

Nah it was just a random story "i found these for like $10 in pakistan"

They look legit and thats an awesome find. Vass shoes are up there with Lobb, Latanzi, EG, etc. I don't particularly have a problem with you asking what they are worth. Congrats.

If that's still available, you should go back and get it at that price. It would do well on the AAAC Thrift Exchange.

Went back and grabbed 3 of the Steve Alan shirts. These are the reverse/inside out ones, in a black and white gingham, a blue and white stripe and a red white and blue check.
All are XL.
Not sure what to charge, so if you want all 3, shoot me a pm?

Vass has a diffusion line called Laslo Vass. so not every vass is equally high end, so unsure as for the quality of this one.

These are the ones he made for Baldessarini, and I wasn't sure exactly where they stood.
