Wait... how old are you? You weren't the guy that grabbed the Loro Piana BB blazer that I passed on, were you? But anyway, it was a weird situation. Neither of us really had a claim to the coat, but he making himself the chief decision maker in the matter was the only thing I had a problem with.

lol8[1].gif Hot water for sure, and the best tasting well water I've ever had, but no WiFi. We use a portable Verizon Jetpack.

On the cusp of 30. 

 

Yeah, that was me. I didn't buy it; it was going to be one of those "It's been a week or so; I have to buy something" purchases, and I came to my senses at the last moment. I'm trying to only buy things that fit, but you know how that goes.

 

Thrifting here has been weak for the past little bit, and now I know why.

Thrifting has been weak for the last 7 years.

This thread is simultaneously the best and worst thing about SF.

picked these up today along with a zegna suit, facconable suit (both windowpane, both with working cuffs, both just too small on me censored.gif) incotex, zegna pants, zanella linen shirt, TP shirt

stuff I have pics of. A Loro Piana suit that fits like a glove icon_gu_b_slayer[1].gif. Loro piana tan jeans, charvet tie, Hermes that I need a little help authenticating. According to the ebay guides, it seems legit.

Seriously nice finds, dudes. Esp 330. I bought that EXACT Cucinelli off one of you awesome dudes a couple of months ago. It's seriously awesome.

In other news, I dislike the new format. Not just because I have to get used to it, because it's SLOW and unresponsive. It's like going from a BMW 335 stick shift to a Yugo.

Anyway, I hit a few stores today and found a bunch of nice "smalls": Warning: Spoiler! (Click to show)


L to R: hand rolled silk square, spoken for; Orvis scotch grain chucka,8D, spoken for; Ferragamo cordovan colored calf single monk plain toe wingtip, sooooo mine.

All NWOT condition -- NOT a phrase I throw around a lot: Charvet, Ferragamo, Pink, Tyrwhitt x 2

All NWOT (Starting from the blue glenplaid one) Tyrwhitt x 2, Ted Baker (tie in foreground is a Vineyard Vines kid size for my nephew)

Paul Smith Made in Italy. Some fray but otherwise decent condition.

But my biggest news: We finally redeemed a crapload of credit card miles and got a 46" flatscreen TV, new sound system and blue ray. Stoked!

+1 - it seems slow to load to me as well, must be all of the ads that they have added to each page. . .

Ads? I never see ads. Adblock. Get it.

 

The new site seems faster for me, but it's been terribly slow lately. Dunno why it's slower for y'all.
