Thanks for the heads up. I grabbed one for $75. I doubt it will fit but figure I can recoup the 75 pretty easily.

Doesn't fit as in sleeves too short, or chest just slightly too big?

Are you sure it didn't say "dry with a tennis ball?" A lot of down garments have that on their care tags (sometimes they even say dry with a tennis ball inside a sock or something). The tennis ball bounces around in the dryer and separates the wet feathers from each other, allowing the garment to return to its pre-wash fluffiness.

This was found before X'mas, before all the craziness, so I finally have the energy and time to post this. My first ever Brioni out in the wild. Anyone knows what the material tag says? I assume 85% WO is wool, then what is WS? Size 42R, blue and gold houndstooth, VERY AVAILABLE.

I also saw this in the display case...I just laughed, are they assuming that people don't know the value of anything?

Haha, that's funny. I wonder if it was just a typo or if they really thought sticking a pair of Chucks in the dryer was a reasonable proposition.

Thrifted my way down the state of Illinois on my way to my parents' house for Christmas, but only came up with these.  Both AVAILABLE.

 

 

I don't know much about KROON, other than I've seen them at Marshall's and STP.  I realize it's not great quality, but it's a cool piece: Poly black rain blazer w/ working cuffs, side vents, detachable throat latch, corduroy trimmings, plaid lining, zippered ticket pocket, iPod pocket, etc.  Tagged 44.
